To think Anok Yai is one of the most beautiful women on earth?

I don’t generally care about the Met Gala, but my jaw dropped when I saw this photo.

Can you imagine walking around looking like this?!

3 very beautiful women of colour - 2 still beautiful in their 60s.

Iman Bowie
Shakira Caine
Katherine Renee Turner (FBI actor)

Kendall Jenner is gorgeous but 100% white. Both parents white. Her sisters Kim, Kourtney and Khloe (the Kardashians) are the half Armenians.

First picture: gorgeous
Second picture: ick

It’s not my thing normally but I looked through the pics yesterday. There was a pretty young woman called Tyla. Never heard of her but she was gorgeous!

Kendall Jenner is very very white.

The Kardashian's are Armenian.

Big bee-stung lips - no thanks. She and Liv Tyler both put me off completely, their faces look out of balance.

Queen Latifah and Penelope Cruz, to pick women closer to Jolie’s age than the current supermodels, are absolutely beautiful. I’d run off with either off them in a heartbeat.

I agree on Tyla! She's a south african singer and one of the lucky few whose body is as perfect as her face:

Growing up I thought the most beautiful woman in the world was Pam Ewing from Dallas. Just wanted to share that.

Happy to.

What the OP keeps conveniently omitting because it doesn't fit her narrative is that my answer was for now. At the minute.

She didn't ask if I had ever found a black woman attractive. She didnt ask if I ever would. I now believe she did that deliberately because she wouldn't have been able to try and castigate me if there was context given/further information.

I have repeatedly said those 3 women are the only ones currently/at this present moment in time that I find attractive on a personal level. I went on to say numerous times that I simply don't find many people attractive. Male or female. That's just me. I can't help it. I just don't. I shouldn't have to justify my totally valid current personal preference for fear of the consequences. That is coercion and its a slippery slope to go down.

At no point did I ever say black women weren't attractive. I did not say that I had never found black women attractive and nor did I say I never would. I think I mentioned that I used to love Naomi Campbell.

All the OP and another poster has done is jumped to a massively wrong conclusion and accussed me of racism when I'm mixed race myself. That's incredibly offensive. I can't even express how disgusting that is to me.

It appears Mumsnet agree with me as they have deleted that particular post.

I love thier big natural lips. Black woman have been mocked for years for having bigger lips.

Interestingly Angelina made them desirable for white people, which on the one hand is disappointing that it was a white woman who made them attractive, but also it's nice that they were no longer mocked.

100%

Being mixed race doesn't mean you're not racist or influenced by white beauty standards. It's absurd to think otherwise.

It wasn’t a question in any way limited by time. People have been answering with everything from Farrah Fawcett, to Audrey Hepburn, to Iman.

And, honestly, celebrities are more diverse than ever. If, in the ‘current crop of beauties’, she can’t think of a single beautiful person that isn’t white, I stand by my statement.

Thank you for this. It sums up how I feel.

I was and its been deleted so Mumsnet must have agreed.

I am not internalising anything because I've mentioned 3 names for my preference at this current time. It's a ridiculous suggestion.

I don't know any of the posters who have supported me whether directly or indirectly but I'd imagine they disagree with the pile on for someone who merely expressed a personal preference. There are a lot of abuse victims on here and I'm sure they recognise misogyny and coercion when they see it. Bullying leaves a nasty taste for most people.

I'm very disappointed too because quite frankly the only person of colour who has been shit on is me.

All gorgeous.

At the best attractive to some, not beautiful to most people.

You think a super model isn't beautiful to most people?

Why do you think most people don't find her beautiful?

She's stunning!!!

Because she's not beautiful. Theres a big difference between beautiful, striking, pretty, attractive etc.

I just looked her up. Gorgeous!

What the heck? It's propaganda?

Until Angelina big lips were mocked.

Who is hating white women? I didn't realize white women were suffering so much when discussing beautiful black women.

In your opinion. I think most people would find her beautiful.

Who do you consider beautiful?

Nice try.

There was nothing in either my question or your initial response about ‘for now’ or ‘at the minute’. So, that’s a lie.

And, as I said above, celebrities are more diverse than ever. If, in the ‘current crop of beauties’, you can’t think of a single beautiful person that isn’t white, I stand by my statement.

Nobody is coercing you. Multiple posters have had an issue with the things you’ve said, not just one. You can keep saying how offensive it all is, it doesn’t change anything.

I don't blame you for not answering after seeing the lengths a few posters have gone to to lie and make false accusations.
