Do Black Women Get Cellulite? by ektbear: 9:15pm On Sep 17, 2011
I'm not racist and like white women well enough.

But one thing I've noticed is that they get these nasty cellulite marks/deposits/whatever the heck it is as they get older.

I was grabbing lunch the other day and saw this white chick in her 30s sitting down. Her entire left thigh was some nasty looking curdled cheese looking mess. It was fascinating, but repulsive.

Like these images:

but 20 times worse. And all over her thigh.

I've never seen the like on black women. However, just because I have not seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

So in a nutshell my question is, do black women get nasty looking cellulite or is this only a white thing?

Another thing too, this chick in her 30s was in GOOD shape. She wasn't fat, out of shape, obese, etc.

Just a skinny, fit woman, but with tons of cellulite in her thigh.

Yes they do cz its not colour related.Diet,exercise,lifestyle I read, are culprits. etc.
common among smokers and those who wear very tight clothing.

Na wah o , men will not lead us to something else, cellu-wetin!
I am sure in my granddad's days to just catch a glimpse of the thigh was a somersaulting turn on,
I beg women are changing their noses, their lower P***y lips , face lift all in the name of perfection.

Cellulite is part of life and black women have it , infact halle berry has it, its not pretty but then again that why personality is better than appearance.

Do you have a pot belly, just curious?

I am yet to see a white/black/red/green lady with cellulite. I may have seen a couple with varicose veins and stretch marks, I don't know if they are the same thing though. undecided

Nope. I'm in pretty good shape. I'll probably have one when I get older though. . . I think i have fat tendencies
Re: Do Black Women Get Cellulite? by fateavon4u(f): 1:54am On Sep 18, 2011
Yea,black women do have cellulite,
Re: Do Black Women Get Cellulite? by Nobody: 2:42am On Sep 18, 2011
yes we do which is usually the result of child birth, weight (including having a big behind and thighs) and age.

it looks terrible on lighter skinned people because the cellulite (dimples) AND puffed/swollen vein(s)
actually are dark in color and it shows easily on their complexion as opposed to us darker folks.
it is noticeable on us but its not like "out there". You have to come closer to us to see.

There's this Caucasian woman I see on the train often. After she gets off the train, she bikes to her destination. Someone that bikes like her, I'd assume he or she would have fit thighs. This woman has the worst cellulite I've ever seen. You can see the holes from far away. I'm even questioning if it's cellulite as I've never seen a case so serious.

Cellulite is prevalent in Caucasian women. That's according to my eye and according to what I've read. I've never seen it in AA women. AA's tend to have more elastic skin though. According to what I've read.
Re: Do Black Women Get Cellulite? by Nobody: 4:09am On Sep 18, 2011
Im wondering if its also individual genetics. Ive seen overweight white woman with NO cellulite and thin white woman WITH cellulite. It baffels me.
Re: Do Black Women Get Cellulite? by CyberG: 5:22am On Sep 18, 2011
White women tend to have cellulite and a skin that ages faster. I had a friend who looked in her 30's but I was shocked when she told me she was 26! I have not met a black woman with cellulite till date but their must be a percentage that have it. One thing I have noticed is that white women have very good skin when they are in their early twenties but mid thirties to early forties, the skin is already sagging around the neck and discolored! I think it is in the skin pigmentation.
Re: Do Black Women Get Cellulite? by Nobody: 5:28am On Sep 18, 2011
^^^ haha! That is not always the case!
Re: Do Black Women Get Cellulite? by Nobody: 5:33am On Sep 18, 2011
Amazingly enough, I haven't seen any black woman with cellulite. Maybe I do not go around checking out nake!!d women. cheesy grin grin

On a more serious note, black women do have cellulite too but very rarely. Thanks to our thick skin.

Skin pigmentation and overexposure to the sun.

^^^ You people are generalizing smiley
Re: Do Black Women Get Cellulite? by Nobody: 5:42am On Sep 18, 2011
How? Lol.
Re: Do Black Women Get Cellulite? by Nobody: 5:46am On Sep 18, 2011
That all white people age faster. Yet I agree that too much sun ages skin
Re: Do Black Women Get Cellulite? by Nobody: 5:51am On Sep 18, 2011
They do. It's not their fault though. Thin skin and minimal pigmentation is the reason. They don't help matters by basking in the sun for hours either lol. Young white women are the leading victims of melanoma. More of them have been diagnosed with that form of skin cancer for decades now.
Re: Do Black Women Get Cellulite? by Nobody: 6:00am On Sep 18, 2011
^^^ Ok then. I know many white women who look younger than their age. Melanoma, I dont know much about this in these regards. smiley

I asked a white woman did she get shot up in a drive by because her legs looked like it was traumatized.

She was wearing a bathing suit with see through sarong.

@op
I have 2 kids and at 43, I don't have stretch marks. I don't understand why we are discussing white women. Make use of the Nigerian ladies, so many homeless, jobless & lonely ones. Why travel far, stretch marks is not a bad black thing.
Re: Do Black Women Get Cellulite? by Nobody: 6:19am On Sep 18, 2011
Fickle, you are beautiful! And I dont know why this is about white women either.

I'm not trying to take shots at white women. I like all sorts personally, white, black, asian, indian, hispanic, jewish, whatever.

It is just something I've noticed on white chicks but haven't really seen on darker women.

Truth. I'm pretty much never attracted to any white women 35+. Very rarely. But there are plenty of 35+ year old black women I find very attractive.
Re: Do Black Women Get Cellulite? by Jenifa1: 7:11am On Sep 18, 2011
yes i've seen black women with cellulite. usually on their butt because that's where many store their fat. but i'm sure there are women who have it on their thighs too.

without the make up, you will see the aging progression better. because I know a few already with crows feet in their 20s but with make up, it is completely covered. maybe they should start applying make up to their neck area also when they're in their 30s and 40s (as per your comment).
