How come most people do not find black women physically attractive?

If I name a hot white girl, plenty of guys of different ethnicities would agree that she is cute.





If I name a hot black girl, it seems like mostly black, Filipino or Hispanic dudes would say she is attractive.Some other guys may say, "cute for a black girl" or they are only interested in light-skinned black girls.|||Im not a racist nor am i ignorant. There are very many pretty black girls but most are not because they obviously resemble primates.|||there is an inaccurate perception that physical beauty is something that is conditioned into the human mind, but in reality, that is not true. Black women's facial features are not always seen as desirable. It is not the result of conditioning to dislike poor people and minorities, because latinas are poor minorities and everybody thinks they are hot. Black men are also often seen as very attractive. It is not racist to say this about black women, it is only an unfortunate reality. Luckily, most women of every race are not that attractive, so there is no reason to feel bad.|||In psych class we studied a theory that people base their perceptions of beauty on what they have seen with their own eyes. Meaning, a person takes all of the faces that they have seen and averages them together; the most average face is the most beautiful.





One can assume therefore, the more types of "different" beauty that people are able to come into contact with, the more their idea of beauty expands.





Black women are underrepresented in the media. This is a fact. As a journalism student, I have taken classes on how ads, television shows, and news reports don't cover all of the bases. It's a shame, but women and people in general, do base their perceptions of beauty on these.





What I don't understand, is how in such a diverse country as ours there can still be such a limited perception of beauty. Chock it up to the fact that a lot of these people are small-minded and haven't escaped much from their social circles (maybe they haven't even traveled much geographically). They're not used to people that are different from them, and therefore, they won't like them. Their loss.|||it is seen as taboo to find black women attractive





same for black men, people see it as taboo to find black men attractive





this is a racial stigma put on society regarding black people


some people have gotten over this, but there are many that havent








that is like people believing all black people act like Sambo's that acted on many movies during the 1920's..similar situation|||It is a myth. Everyone knows that a black guy of any complexion would be very turned on by an attractive dark female and I am talking about the men who also date other races. Such men are into woman and not the complexion of the skin tone. And they come in most races.








Actually this question is out of context.|||i think everyone is beautiful in there own way.


i bet you have a type some people like black some like white some like blond some brown.


its all to do on what you like,because there is nothing wrong with either all you can do is learn to love yourself and people will love you to .x.x.x.|||I don't know about most people but I don't find black women attractive unlike most of my friends different people different taste|||Is the same as when black girls don't find us attractive. By the way there are alot of beautiful black women, is just their attitude that kills it.|||I personally don't care. I don't find racists attractive anyway.|||I seem to disagree. All races have attractive and unattractive girls.|||i am not most people|||I have no race. But you have to ask a groid lover.|||The aroma from their booty clapping burns my eyes. They still don't smell half as bad as Indians though.|||well i know i do ;))) them black girls be sexy as hell|||becayse they haven't seen me yet apparently|||DEY be trippin look at me, wat dont ya want??|||im dating a white guy|||well.. i think is because they have rare hair.|||I think because most of our ideals of beauty are not commonly associated with black women.





For example, Personally, I'm attracted to Asian girls. They have straight, black hair (which not all blacks have)...almond eye shape (which not all blacks have)...fair skin tone (which practically no blacks have)...a slim, petite figure (which not all blacks have)





of course i find black women attractive, but i admit, they are usually light skinned blacks such as tyra banks or beyonce...

What kind of black or green tea to use when making pearl milk tea?

Hi, thanks for taking the time. I'd just like to know what brands of black tea or jasmine green tea is strong enough because i use Lipton and it's no where near strong enough. Does the black tea need to be made with tea leaves or something similar? Oh and this is a secondary question that I'm just curious about; how do the pearl milk tea shops make such strong tea in such a big quantity? That must cost a lot of money. Thanks once again.|||don't use lipton, because it's a weak tea. one teaspoon of tea inside a teabag isn't gonna do it if you want a strong tea.





if you want strong tea, you need to buy loose black tea, preferably assam (english breakfast), or a assam/ceylon mix (british afternoon tea). you can buy black tea in an asian supermarket too. they also have lots of green tea like jasmine, and oolong. for green, i would get a simple green, not jasmine unless you want it. for a roasted flavor, i would get ti kuan yin which is a darker roast of oolong.





if you don't have an asian supermarket near you, look for an indian supermarket. indian supermarkets should have one of the ctc teas like brooke bond red label, or lipton yellow label. ctc ("crush tear curl") teas are dirt cheap, but delivery 5x the flavor, it's like the crack of the tea world, it's the tea that chai masala is made from.





the last case scenario is to look at your gourmet market, or at least whole foods market. and look for yorkshire tea, it will be expensive, but the tea bags are large and make a very strong and tasty tea.








as for tea shops makign tea. tea leaves can be cheap depending on the grade they use. 1st grade tea (for drinking tea, not bubble tea) can cost upwards of hundreds of dollars a pound, but bubble tea places usually buy the cheap stuff, or blends to smoothen out the flavor. they don't use tea bags.|||Green tea appears to speed up calorie burning, including fat calorie burning. The green tea extract may play a role in the control of body composition.

|||If Lipton is too weak, forget about green tea. It's not as oxidized as the black. Try some jasmine black or some rose. Hell, try any tea you can drink. It's okay to make your tea a bit stronger if it's not flavorful enough. By pearl milk do you mean the Bubble tea phenom using pearl tapioca? If so, change the tea to milk ratio.

Can I dye black twill pants to cover up the bleach stains?

I have bleach stains on two of my cotton twill pants. Both are all black. Will black Rit Dye cover up the bleach spots? The spots are golden in color. And can I dye two pants and a sweater in one load?|||OMG I hate it when that happens----go get a black "laundry marker" (Sharpie--must say laundry marker!), hit the bleach stains with that, THEN get MUCHO BLACK RIT DYE (more than the bottle/box says) and then do the full dye-job---add the salt, hot water, etc. and make sure you watch the washing machine timer so it can go DOUBLE the time for dye-ing!


If you do 2 pants and a sweater, make sure you triple-up on the dye.|||Dylon do a washing machine dye. Just put whole packet into drum, load trousers and wash at at least 40 degrees. Wash again when finished with detergent, remove trousers and put washing machine on hot wash with detergent to remove any dye. NB: next time you use the washer do a dark wash first just in case theres any dye left.

What wall color goes with black bedding and black curtains?

I am repainting my bedroom. I have black curtains and black comforter and sheets on my bed. I was just wondering what a good wall color would be. I was thinking sea foam green, but I have no idea. Please help!|||Depending on your style and the look you're trying to acheive you could go in many directions. Keeping it simple,you could go taupe walls and have an accent color like red.

Remember you can always repaint if you don't like the result. Bonus: paint is cheap!|||Black and white with gold accents is very chic, sophisticated, and classy.





Black and pink or black and a bright aqua is very retro (think 50s).

What are the black fragments that appeared after hydrochloric acid was added to zinc in a test tube?

We did a lab in chemistry class today and one of the steps included adding hydrochloric acid to a piece of zinc in a test tube. There were some black fragments at the bottom of the test tube after the reaction occurred (we also held an ember to the mouth of the tube and it began smoking too). So what are those black pieces exactly...? Thanks ^_^.|||If your zinc and hydrochloric acid were reasonably pure there shouldn't be any black fragments left over when the reaction is complete.





However, since you mention the ember, it seems likely that some of the burnt ember fell into your test tube, in which case the black fragments are mostly carbon.

Thanks!|||are you talking about the plate thats in side of the throttle body, the one that opens up to let air into your engine? if so then that black stuff is carbon build up and should be cleaned off. but i dont know if i would have used carb cleaner down that far, chances are you got some of the cleaner down in the engine and its trying to burn it off, which is normal. just let it run for a bit.also it might blow some smoke, which would be ok.

How do black people manage to cross the desert?

How did the historical dominance of White men over Black men/women affect the relationships of Blacks?

As far as dominance of the man over the woman. Historically Black men have never had much control over Black women, and White men have had more. White men have even had a lot of control over Black men themselves in the United States. In a country/society where the mainstream always promoted men being superior to women, how did this affect how Black people saw each other in relationships??|||It is shown that in American history black men are more likely to be family oriented thus decreases the chances of sexism. This is because in slavery one of the things that white men did to keep blacks from rebelling was to threaten his family. A black man didn't rebel against his "master" because the master would threaten to kill his wife and children. This developed much more strong bonds within the black community than in the white community.|||"Historically Black men have never had much control over Black women"


Who told you that?


I do know that African Americans have looked at the power dynamic between the sexes differently because both were disenfranchised. We couldn't just point the finger at each other.


Sometimes black women faced the double whammy of sexism and racism but sometimes black women had the advantage over black men of being less threatening to white society being stereotyped as maid or prostitutes but not as rapists and murderers who needed to be controlled and locked up for the good of society.


Sometimes white culture even has tried to encourage black women to take the same attitude to our own men but most of us know better.|||In the same way it affected relationships between women in general. Any disempowered minority behaves likewise.

If you aren't apart of the solution, then you MUST be the problem.|||Personally, I have met Black Men who bad mouth Black Women, and Black Women who badmouth Black Men that maintain dating interracial. I have heard men of all races and women of all races and cultures bad mouth not just each others' culture, but the genders in general. Take out "Black" and it's pretty much a bunch of bitter people angry at their crappy choices. Just like when women say "Men are all dogs" and Men say, "women nag too much". They just insert a culture. It can be applied to everyone. As far as "White guys badmouthing White Women"...well, check any comedian, actor, and so on...and you will see that you are wrong there. I spent over 4 years in Korea, and I can tell you that As some white women may bad mouth some white males, white males will bad mouth white women over asian or "exotic women". That goes for all races and cultures. Unfortunately it is more of a gender thing than a race or cultural thing. I will mention one thing...2000 census...want to know how many of the Married Black Males in this country are married to "other than black women" (meaning asian, white, indian, arab, and so on). 7 %. 93 % of married black men in america are married to black women. And if someone cares to check my stats... I am posting the link in my sources. Also, for those of you who complain about 40 % of black Women being unmarried...Well...I think it's about 39.7% for Black women and 41.9 percent for Black Males. So, it's pretty even across the board. Stop hating on each other and ignore the stupid people. One thing that seems to span over all races and cultures is stupidity and ignorance.

How do Americans who are black feel about the current gay movement equating being gay to being black?

Just curious, because gays say they are born this way. My issue is here; gay people still had to make a choice to participate in "gay" acts. This is similar to drug addicts. They feel they are born that way, so should we make smoking crack suitable for public venues, like at church or the mall?


Americans who are black actually were born black, and were treated terribly by our government for a while because of that, not because of a decision they made. How are these two things the same?|||I'm gay, black, and a woman.





I don't agree that being black and being gay are the same, but just similar in the ways where both have been discriminated against, both have had the bible used against them, and both have had it where they couldn't be with and marry to the person they loved.


The last part meaning when a black wanted to be with someone who was white. And even in slavery where it was more like they just had blacks breed...





And sure gay people could fight being gay and hide it, after all it's not like 50 years ago there less gays than there are now, it was just more people fought it and lived a lie where as now, gays won't.


I didn't decide to be gay, but did decided to want to feel and experience something similar to what heterosexual couples feel when they get to express their feeling for the one they love.








And I don't agree that people are born with drug addictions, just traits that allow them to become easily addicted to things. Sure they once they try drugs they always have to fight to stay off of them, but it's not like they were itching for a hit at the age of 7.


Also I don't see how being gay and a drug addict can be compared.


Being gay doesn't hurt anyone, you can't OD from being too gay, it won't destroy your body, etc.|||Gay people are born that way too. When did you choose to become a heterosexual? If the entire world told you that your 'choice' to like the opposite sex was wrong/immoral and that you couldn't marry or have 'hetero' acts with the person that you loved....would you simply cease to be heterosexual??


They are not the same...but they both share a commonality. BOTH black people AND gay people have been and are being denied their civil rights and equality. I'm pretty confident that if you were born a heterosexual and if the federal and state government told you that your feelings were wrong, that wouldn't stop you from liking and wanting to be with someone who fulfilled you.|||Hey you know I'm assuming you are a heterosexual. Just for one day turn that switch off, stop chasing women, and turn the other switch on and to see how easy it is to fantasize about a man of your dream. Yea, that's impossible.





I think gays are born with it just like heterosexuals.|||That comparison is made because 70% of black people voted yes on prop 8. That means you are taking away gays rights. Black people have been fighting for their right a long time now. And now you are taking away other peoples right. Thats ironic isn't it?|||ok i was gonna say bs, but i do believe people are born with their personality traits, so if gays are born gay , then the same could be said of whites, they are born white..why did you have to use black to compare the statement, trying to incite some anger...|||Being homosexual now equates to being a drug addict? That makes total sense considering it's so harmful to your health. Smoking crack? THAT'S harmful to your health.|||Equal rights are equal rights.





I am for the single people having equality in the tax code. I could care less whether that single person is gay or black.

Why are there so many black cats at the shelter?

I'm not trying to come across as superstitious, because I'm not. I was visiting the shelter today in search of a potential companion kitty for my 7 month old female, and I was intrigued by how greatly black cats outnumbered any other color pattern. Is there anything aside from silly superstitions that make them undesirable? I'm very attempted to pick a black one simply because everyone else seems to gravitate toward the other colors. There are definitely enough black ones with a variety of personalities to choose from.|||Black is very common. There are something like 4 black cats born for every other cat color there is. I don't remember where I saw the statistic, and I might have a brain fart, but it's a high percentage of black to "non-black" cats.|||I have definitely noticed this pattern as well. In fact, shelters often do special promotions to get people to pay more attention to the black kitties.





The person who said people are racist as a joke may actually not be far from the truth. The connotations of the word black are not that great. The word "black" is associated with dirty and gloomy and scary. Since these are not the qualities people want in their cute kitties, they are often prejudiced against black cats simply because of their fur color. Unfortunately black dogs also suffer the same discrimination.





You may very well be saving a life by adopting a black cat that could get put down if no one seems to want it. I too have made the determination that the next cat I adopt will be black.|||people are superstitous, and becuz black cats are the most common color, next to white, that a cat can have.........even if the mother and father were completely diffrent colors





black cats are gentle and cuddly and friendly......ive had a bunch of black kitties, either pure black or black with a bit of white


black cats are really nice, as long as they havent been abused, and if you get a kitten and raise it they are cuddly and easygoing when older.......





just dont get a male cat becuz they spray all over everything


and they will try and mate with your female cat when mating season comes


then you will have a bunch of black cats that will end up in the shelter!!!!!!!!


(if you do get a male get a kitten and be sure to neuter him beforre the age of sexual maturity or he will start spraying/scent marking and he will never stop!!!!!!!)|||I have 3 cats and one is all black with the most gorgeous green eyes. Really can't understand why people would not want a black cat. Mine is so sweet and lovable. Just today our pool man noticed him for the first time and was really drawn to his eyes and commented that he never met an animal that had prettier eyes than his dog's (an Akita/Husky mix). Our black cat is one of 2 cats we adpoted from a litter and he is the first one I chose.|||As a long-time shelter volunteer I know black cats, black dogs, and black bunnies are always the last to find homes.





You are right about the "variety of personalities" - each animal is an individual.





I remember being flabbergasted when a potential adoptor said, "I am looking for an older, black, long-haired cat"|||I think some of it might be superstition, but I also think it's because black is a dominant gene. If a stray black cat mated with a stray white cat, the chances are the kittens would come out black; and then those kittens would end up in the shelter because they are stray. Thats just what I think, though|||Never noticed that, but interesting nonetheless. I guess that black cats appear "boring" and a colorful cat (in comparison) looks more fun or lively. I think it's a prejudice thing too... I feel a black cat is more likely to hide under the bed and swat, swat, swat at my feet as I go by.





Kudos on choosing the best black cat if you do - the best selection is there!|||aside from superstitions all the black cat has to go on is personality. Most people choose an animal for the color of the coat or condition of the fur, i.e. long or short haired. Black fur and green eyes can get old. Finding a cat that chooses you is more important whether it is black or not. I have two black cat brothers and I can tell them apart by how they hold their tails and they are the best cats.|||1.) Superstition.


2.) Common coat color.


3.) Less interesting look for most than, say, a tabby.


4.) Negative image. What do "evil cats" look like? Black.

Unfortunately so many people are superstitious and the dark cats don't get adopted as fast.

Why do black and hispanic kids start banging at such a young age?

I remember in middle school most of the black and hispanic kids were banging away like little rabbits even at the age of like 12 or 13. I have heard that a lot start banging even at like 9 or 10. White kids usually wait until like 16 or 17 or so. Why is this? I have heard that blacks and hispanics have higher testosterone. Could this account for it?|||Most of the kids i knew back in the day who did that were white. Especially the girls. I think your just another Y!A racist.|||Honey, I'm 16 and still a virgin.

When did black people start talking in the hip hop accent?

Like Talking more "modern" and faster cause I was watching some 1970's movies with black people in it and they talk different than how black people talk today.Hip hop came out in the 1980's but when did people start using the hip hop speech tone or just speeded up voice tone.Slang is always changing but when did people talk more modern and not like an old man or woman.|||This is why we should be allowed to give questions themselves on Yahoo! Answers a thumbs-down. Way to generalize.|||Television is never going to be a true gauge for speech habits. People on TV are coached in how to speak. Ask black actors who have been told - by WHITE producers - that they don't "talk black enough"

What would cause the black rubber door gaskets of dishwashers to break down, leaving black residue everywhere?

After about 3 years, the gaskets of my Asko dishwasher get gummy, resulting in the deposit of black gunk particularly on plastics, even plastic parts of the dishwasher. Changing the detergents does not seem to make any difference. I had the same problem with similar black gaskets on a Bosch dishwasher! Has anyone else experienced this problem?|||The temp of water as well as chlorine in water. However, the seal around the door should definitely not be doing this.You might call the mfg. and find out if they have had similar complaints about this problem before you pay someone to replace it.|||So then why is this not a common problem?

Why do black leaders expect Obama to pursue a black agenda when he has no African American ancestors?

Why are black spots appearing on my snake?

He's a orange/red corn snake that naturally has absolutely no black on him. But within the last month his scales in certain places have looked withered and turned black like they're dirty or something. I've tried to clean them, but he won't hold still, and they won't wash off.

Check the scales again after the next shed.

What color accessories would go with black and white shower curtain?

We're about to move into a new place and I've decided to decorated my husband's bathroom a black and white look. I just bought a vinyl shower curtain that's a soft white and has blocked black and gray boxes on it. It's really nice and trendy. But I don't know if I should go with black rugs and red bathroom accessories or just black rugs and accessories. I would like a touch of red in the bathroom but I don't know where to add it. I know how to decorate when I already have the items but I don't know how to pull different colors together to create a dramatic effect. Any advice would be appreciated it!!!!|||Red. Absolutely red. I've seen it done. It looks great. But not too much red. The towels and maybe a few accessories. I'd go with a black rug.|||CHROME|||Try Peir 1 Imports, the store. They usually hae great trendy items for decorating. Anyting cubey- For the rug I picture a fluffy black one...good luck and remember to have fun. I think black would be a bit depressing by itself...try to lighten it up a bit.|||red stuff.|||Hot Pink|||Red is out go for stainless steel or chrome after all it is a mans throne room|||my bathroom is black and white and the "pop" color I chose was a vibrant green...its in the light fixtures...but my towels are gray and white....I have two rugs one is white and one is black, I rotate them...the soaps are the same green as what is in the lights....and the plant I put in there also pops the green...the red as a "pop" color sounds great just bring it in in small ways so it pops rather than takes over|||I would definately go with red accessories. Accessories are nto too expensive for a try out. Yet are enough to add that zip you are looking for. There are also accessories in a granite grey available, or stone blue. But I think you have it right with the red to give it a punch without going overboard.|||I think red would be too art deco for a man. I know my husband wouldn't like it. I would go with black %26amp; silver accessories. if you must add red , how about using decorative curtain shower hooks in red or a picture with a splash of red. An alernative to add color with a more masculine feel would be adding blue (more of a grey blue rather than a bright blue).|||Buy a framed piece of art (poster, photograph, etc) to put in the bathroom %26amp; pull a bright color from that. Just use it in a few places though. Maybe just hand towels, or a small sculpture.|||red definitely|||With black %26amp; white I'd go with red, hot pink or aqua. If you want red, I'd go with a red rug %26amp; towels and black or grey accessories. Otherwise,I 'd go with black rug %26amp; turquoise or aqua accessories. (Forget the hot pink, nice for us gals, but I just re-read that it's your hubby's bathroom, so I'm guessing he wouldn't go for the hot pink!)|||Since you want a trendy and put together look, I think a nice bright red will complement the black and white perfectly. You said you want just a touch of red, so why not add red shower curtain hooks? Red knobs and slide pulls on any drawers and closets would accent nicely. The big stuff you can do with the black and white colors, because in this case, they create the background by which the red will show up in a neat way. Little details in red are definitely the way to go, especially if you have a nice print on the wall that combines all the colors in the room. Be creative and have fun with it!

What is the physical difference between black and norwegian rats?

I don't want to know that the black rat spread the plague or that one is domesticated or one is cuter. If I saw a black and a norwegian rat side by side, how would I know the difference (Don't say one is black and the other isn't because there are black colored norwegian rats)|||The black rat (Rattus rattus), also called the ship rat or roof rat, is smaller than the brown rat (Rattus norvegicus), also called the common rat or Norway rat. It has a longer tail in comparison to body size, a more sharply pointed snout, and larger ears. I know you didn't want any mention of cuteness, but personally I find the brown rat cuter (and yes, pet rats belong to this species).





By the way, the black rat didn't spread the plague - it was spread by fleas, which lived on humans, dogs, cats, etc. just as much as rats.





Here some images:

How to pass a black light test for urine?

I live in an apartment that does black light tests. On our own inspection we saw some interesting things and are assuming it it is urine from our potty training daughter. We have cleaned the area with a bunch of urine removal products but the area is still showing up on black light tests. They are much lighter, can not be seen by normal light and have no smell.





Has any one ever cleaned up urine and then black lighted the areas to see the area clean?


What did you use?





Thanks in advance|||Unfortunately, the old urine stains will continue to glow in the carpeting, even after treating and there removal. They will be there even after professional cleaning. There is now a product available to the carpet cleaning supply stores that will eliminate the glow, I'm told. I've never tried it, but I know it is available.|||Here's what I did- I used a blacklight to find all the pet stains and doused them in Get Serious. I then blotted the doused areas and went to sleep. When I woke up the next morning, I steam cleaned my carpet (using laundrey detergent as the soap). That night I checked for the stains- GONE!

|||No that is really interesting. The standard treatment for urine is to apply enzymes. Enzymes are the natural way to break down the urine molecule to inoffensive bits. You can buy enzyme cleaners at your local pet store. Treat those areas then black light it after some time has passed because the enzymes take time to work. Let us know back.|||Well i don't know what color the surface is, but I recommend tilex. It works wonders and kills bacteria.

When will black people turn to atheism and free themselves of religion?

How does black Friday work at best buy and walmart this year?

How does black Friday work at best buy and walmart this year? Thank you ahead of time for answering. I've never been to a black Friday sale at these retailers and I would like to know how these things work such as: what time should I get there? (for electronics) is 1-2am okay? Plus any tips and strategies that you feel necessary to know would be great.|||They have some sweet deals and there is an online gift card giveaway for black friday. check it out!


http://bit.ly/fkZNnr|||For me personally, I love the rush of adrenaline on black Friday, thats why I always go to the store to wait in line and watch the amazing-ness to begin at 5:00AM!!! If you want to get a HOT item that you have to wait in line for, then you must get to Best Buy or Walmart at 2:30am - 3:00am. If your not buying an item you have to wait in line for (ex: all the cameras) you should arrive at 4:00am so make sure you get one then just walk around the store until 5:00am when your allowed to check out. make sure you get out of there as QUICK as possible. It gets more crowded as the hours go on.|||I think best buy has better stuff this year. Unless you're going for doorbusters a cheap laptop, just go in the morning like around 5 am. Or shop online since only a few deals are worth waiting in line for, such as the 40 inch hdtv at target, or the sony viao laptop at bestbuy. For those sales you should be in line already. I am buying a cheap desktop at bestbuy so I am getting in line around 9 pm tonight to make sure I get it. And i think camping out with friends are fun so lol, if you plan to pick up a very cheap TV or computer by arriving at 3-4am, you might not get it, since those supplies run out. Usually the first wave of people, at least in my area, arrives around 3pm today, so you will have around a few hundred people in front of you, which will probably buy what you need. good luck and have fun|||Black friday at these stores are really hectic. I would recommend you to buy items online. If you go on the online website for walmart and on their black friday ad it will let you know if you are able to buy it online or you must go in store to purchase. Click on an item that is on sale and in blue letters it will tell you "this item wil be available online and in store" or "only in store" Most of the bigger items you will be able to purchase online but not the clothing or toys...for those items you must go into the store. Walmart is opening at 12am if you plan to buy an electronic item those go on sale until 5am. I live in the West Coast and last year I was able to add items to my cart that were on sale at 9pm. (it is 12am east coast) I am not too sure if they are going to postpone the electronics this year but you will definitely save a lot of time by shopping online. Best Buy is similar but they will not tell you what will and what will not be available to purchase online. Best Buy has limits per store ....for example there will only be 15 of a certain television and so on. I have driven by the freeway and there were people already camping outside the store since Monday Night. If you plan to purchase anything there I would not go make those crazy lines.....Last year I purchased a tv that was on sale and chose "in store pick up." I was in and out of there in 5 min.

How do I make black eyeshadow actually go on black instead of a gray color?

It seems like everytime I put on black eyeshadow to do a smokey look, it doesn't go on black- it goes on like a dark gray color. I use foundation under it as a sort of primer yet it still isn't anywhere near dark enough.|||well first try using a real/better primer everyone loves primer potion but if that's not your thing you can try shadow insurance or a paint pot or something cheaper next change to a better brand of eyeshadow-one that has better quality therefor better pigmentation. nyx actually has a very pigmented matte black eyeshadow :) you could also try foiling wwhich is applying it "wet" which is spritzing the product with a mixing medium or something such as fix+ (mac) :)|||Getting an eyeshadow base like Urban Decay Primer Potion (Also known as UDPP) makes eyeshadow colors bolder, as well as longer lasting and a lot less likely to crease. Also, making it wet (paste like) will make any makeup color last longer. You can use water, something that's meant for getting eyeshadow's wet, or even Visine. (I use Visine.)





If you decide to go with using eyeshadow, make sure you don't put the liquid onto the eyeshadow, instead use a couple of drops and then wet your brush, you want it almost a pasty consistency.|||you most likely didnt get a good color eyeshadow..
