When they given an interview laying out their race identity issues
Shit. I never considered he dated both Faith Evans and Charli baltimore.
The interview is very telling of her issues. She was fine, but years of abuse, and the pressure pushed her to this. That's what I think, maybe I'm not reading it correctly.

Damn, I always suspected she had these issues when I first saw that No Matter What They Say video and then this photo.

She isn't changing her "race" to Caucasian, she's bleaching her skin to look like what has been defined as and still being defined as beautiful in America for a long time. And in her own words, the men in her life has always cheated on her with women with European features, so she's never felt beautiful in her own skin. Stop trying to compare two different situations that have nothing to do with each other. You don't have to be a Medical doctor to understand context. One is a trans woman, the other is a black woman with self esteem issues.
Why are you acting like a psychiatrist and she is your client?
Damn Biggs had a type. didn't he
That the colour Japan see Beyounce in all media advertisements. smh.

I can't believe people are seriously trying to compare Caitlyn Jenner to Lil Kim.
No one ever shit on Caitlyn to the point where she felt being a woman was the only chance at being accepted. Kim has been shit on her whole life, and I'll repost it

because this is a woman that taught that being black isn't good. She didn't decide on her own that she wanted to be white, there's a difference and pretending there's not is insulting.

Hopefully you recognize the damage you're doing to black women when you tell them you only date Asian women. ��������������
I'm not fully agreeing with those comparing this to a gender transition, at all. I'm saying that the argument gets into a grey area because if you ask those people to heart they'll probably tell you "it's how I feel in the inside", but I think it's pretty clear it's not comparable as in how important and really natural is in a person. And of course, it's based on societal pressure, most of the time.
Yes, low-self esteem. Where is the other condition?
You foul

I know, I know, I would say maybe forget about Kim's specific circumstance and just look at the larger question that Shao Kahn seems to be posing:
Where is the line for it being "okay" to pursue cosmetic surgery?
Kim seems very unhappy with her body, and that seems lame and unfair. But it also seems to me that a lot of trans people must be unhappy with their bodies, not just because of their internal psychology, but also because of the way that society treats them. So where's the line?
I don't know. I just think that Shao Kahn's argument is interesting, I don't really agree with it. I'm genuinely curious about where that "line" is.
All I know is that Kim used to be super hot and I am sad now.

You know exactly what it is and it's safe to say that's it something she is suffering from.
UnemployedVillain might not exactly know for sure but it's a safe bet.

Damn I knew about Lil Kim, but I had no idea about Gabby. She was S-Tier gorgeous in Bad Boys 2. I hope both are doing okay.

Seriously Kim's self esteem issues have absolutely nothing to do with Transgendered folks. Like lord jesus.
When it's a choice of your own and not something you feel like you have to do in order to be accepted.

It is indeed sad.
I can certainly relate to her though. I've always felt my potential to be seen as attractive was limited because I was not born white. If I had the money/resources to change it? I honestly don't know if I could say I would not.

There's nothing changed about Gabby, what you're witnessing is people who know nothing about makeup and lighting. She hasn't had anything done to herself.

I've never ever encountered a black man or woman who has used " it's how I feel inside" as a reason for why they bleached their skin. It has always been because beauty has been associated with white, while black is ugly. Where did you think the phrase "black is beautiful" came from? Same applies to having thick lips, broad nose and big booty.
No, it's not a safe bet. She's in one of the most vain industries going, there could be external pressure, maybe she doesn't want to name names so she won't hurt her career. Throwing around horrible mental conditions like you know what you're talking about is disgraceful.
why are people bringing up tans people?
Is it because they have never dealt with how European beauty standards are forced upon black women?

I feel conflicted. Like, I want to say that I prefer old lil Kim. But I worry it's just another dehumanizing response that led us here. She's more than a body and face. And she never got that lesson.
They not listening lmao
No argument here, I literally have no experience. Tales from my ass, I know, I'm glad there is someone to correct me.
And yes, god hold me when I see a black beauty, black is absolutely beautiful, so was lil kim. It's very sad she fell to this due to self-steem issues.
Thank you, Jesus.
And I wouldn't necessarily say that it's a "bad" pic (now that I know that it's still "her", lol)

I think a lot of people can't really comprehend this concept, to be honest.

She unfortunately never got that chance to learn it cause everyone around her kept making her feel ugly.

I'm not about to tell a woman she can't dye her hair whatever color she wants. Or any man for that matter.
Whether she's lightening her skin or has a problem with self esteem and race is another matter that I don't feel like touching.
But dying your hair? Do whatever you want. Shave just one side. Put it in a mohawk. Get a famcut. Make it purple. Go crazy. Who cares.

I'm responding to Shao Kahn on the Lawn's controversial comparison between this situation and Caitlyn Jenner. I'm saying that I think the comparison is worth talking about. Feel free to disagree
and read the thread so you know what is going on

played the long game
I'm sympathetic to your argument. I have a few friends that are East or South Asian but essentially grew up "white" and identify as such. They don't relate to being "brown" or "asian" at all. I think think it's a complicated situation and I don't think we can project the same reasons onto Lil Kim, but being trapped in the wrong body is a real thing for these people.
Yes, I know exactly what it is. But it's not something you can casually diagnose as an outside observer, it's like comparing to having a bad day and depression.
Body dysmorphia is usually focused on a single aspect of the body as well. Like someone thinks they have big hands and can't be reasoned out of that belief.

It's just makeup.
ahh I should have read farther, I just couldn't even believe it.
It's the Rachel Dolezal thread all over again, right down to posters not understanding the science behind what makes a transgender person who they are and combining it with "trans racial" theories in order to sound progressive but really insulting transgender people by comparing them with a complete fantasy scenario.
