I’m literally pan and gender fluid. So like-we cool. *holds fist out for fist bump*
It’ll mean a lot to my friend, who’s having a tough time with bullies lately.

How this would pan out:
Them: “Yo, so I got like . . . A dime and some scratch and sniff stickers . . . I’ll give them to you if you just slap your brother across the face real quick.”
Me: “Sure thing dude, but quick question. What do the stickers smell like?”
Them: “Oranges.”
Me: “Sweet! Yo, Bub! Come here a second!”
Skin.
Writing with Color has received several asks on this topic.
Everything from “how do I describe my character’s skin tone without being offensive?” and “what’s the problem with comparing my character to chocolate and coffee?”
I’m hoping to address all these and likewise questions in this guide on describing POCs’ skin color, from light, dark and all that’s in between.
The Food Thing: So what’s the big deal?
So exactly what is the problem with comparing a POC’s skin tone to cocoa, coffee, caramel, brown sugar and other sweets and goods? Well, there’s several potential problems you come across when you pull out the old Hershey’s bar comparison for your dark-skinned character, even if offense is not your intention.

Yeah we are really boring and awkward here. We’re just like, “hey, nice to meet you let me give you a weird smile and move my hand from side to side for a second before running away and hoping I never see you again.” Plus it’s even worse when it’s boys because they’re like, “nope, can’t possibly touch this guy longer than a second or else it’s gay.” Honestly I wish we did the whole kiss on the cheek thing, I’m a very affectionate person.
Sometimes i forget in other countries people don’t greet each other with a kiss on the cheek… y'all so boring, show some love
Oh shit! Is this what this is?! I didn’t know this was even a thing! I’ve just, like, always been told I’m just super lazy. I’ve tried to explain to my parents but . . . I never knew it was a real thing I just thought I was a whiny brat honestly. Though . . . I don’t know for sure it’s just this sounds exactly like what I’ve been trying to figure out.
If you’re one of those people who thinks executive dysfunction only happens for things we don’t like (school, cleaning,) then please consider the fact that I’ve been meaning to plug my phone in for 20 minutes and I’m now at 2% and still putting it off to write this post ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
