Holy shit, why did it take me 20 years to realize that TRUDAY was supposed to be light-skinned? I always thought she was Italian or something, hell I thought I remembered an episode about Penny being mixed. She's even lighter than their Mexican neighbors, what gives?

Come on, I was seriously the only one?

You never realized that she was supposed to be high yellow?
>high yellow
The mexicans and australians that make up the bulk of this site don't know what that means.
I have never heard this term before but now I see it
Ironically isn't this something of a trope in black shows and movies? The main girl is ALWAYS light-skinned, by black standards. A bit of intra-racial racism.
No it's usually the other way around, Boondocks explained it

Honestly, it's true on both fronts. A lot of medium and dark skin women are now claiming "colorism" When some black men don't prefer them over lighter-skinned black women. But at the same time, dark-skinned black makes fun of light-skins black men because some darker-skinned women want lighter babies and go after them more. So they make memes about light-skinned black men being sensitive and weird.
When I was a kid I assumed Jake's dad in American Dragon: Jake Long was Chinese, cause his last name was Long and he looked like he could be Asian. Somehow I missed the joke about him being white
Im more suprised of she has less porn than I thought
It's called colorism. It's actually pretty common across the board. Even white shows do it.
>I always thought she was Italian or something
I always thought she was Asian or at least half-white.
>She's even lighter than their Mexican neighbors, what gives?
Because mixed people were legally classified as black in the US during slavery and Jim Crow, black people can have a variety of looks besides pure African.
Like Will Ferrell here.
Dude, they did an entire episode where the running gag is that he's one of those white people who claims to be 1/16 Native America, and the natives came over from Asia, so he's Asian.
Because colorism is based, maybe even more based than racism, I'm a brown haired black eyed guy but refuse to date any woman who isn't pure blonde.
>I am dark skinned and bald. So I hate you, and I hate Jesus!
My sides!
>I'm a brown haired black eyed guy
Who punched you?
Bullshit, she's a PoC.
