Girls of African tribes of Russian people, frankly, scare. The reason is their unusual beauty standards, which are fundamentally different from ours. Because of this, we have a stereotype that all black women are not as attractive as ours. But is this really so? Or, perhaps, for the shocking photos, we stopped to notice the true beauty of Africa?
To understand this issue, you need to weed out the truth from fiction. To do this, let's compare the different categories of black girls living both on the territory of the Black Continent and beyond.
African girl: how does she scare?
African standards of beauty for Russian people seem at least strange. Broken ears, which easily fit a 10 cm plate. A spiked nose that looks more like a hedgehog’s body than a pretty face. Elongated, like giraffes, necks, girdled with copper hoops. All this scares our man, and also makes him rack their brains over why they are so mutilating themselves?
However, one point should be clarified. Such excesses are a common norm for local tribes. This is part of the cultural heritage that has been passed down from generation to generation over the past 2-3 millennia. And they seem strange only to us, and for them it is a familiar part of the aesthetic image of their ancestors.
Exception to the rule
But not all indigenous people in Africa are prone to self-flagellation. So, among all the others, the Himba tribe stands out , because the most beautiful African girls live in it. At the same time, their appearance is appreciated not only by black men, but also by most Europeans.
The thing is that women from this tribe have a surprisingly slender body, which is extremely unusual in those parts. Also, they do not "disfigure" their body, but rather, follow it. So, girls daily rub a special extract from clay and natural oils into their hair, thereby forming amazing pigtails, somewhat reminiscent of dreadlocks.
In addition, women in this tribe are used to wearing a lot of jewelry. And this gives them even greater elegance and nobility. No wonder one of the tourists noticed that they all looked like black princesses of antiquity.
At the dawn of a new era
And yet, even Native Africans are slowly beginning to realize that today such eccentricities are no longer in vogue. As progress captures the wild lands, the culture of the Black Continent itself is changing. Now beautiful African girls are in no hurry to spoil their body and face. Thanks to television, they acquire new views and beliefs that differ from the usual for the better.
In general, despite all the identities of Africans, they are more and more striving to become like Americans and Europeans. After all, their image is a symbol of wealth and prosperity, which are so lacking here. Therefore, do not be surprised that a modern girl instead of a plate-shaped earrings will prefer a set of quality cosmetics as a gift.
African model girls
Such changes in the culture of African peoples led to the fact that their women began to reincarnate before our eyes. From wild and groomed wolves, they turned into graceful panthers, able to compete on equal terms with European beauties. To prove this, we give a small list of a native of Africa who can surprise everyone with their lovely appearance.
- Iman Mohamed Abdulmajid - this African girl was one of the first to show the world the true beauty of the Black Continent.
- Kate Manson is a Ghanaian top model who won the 2008 Face of Africa national contest.
- Oluchi Onvigba is a Nigerian beauty who has conquered the catwalks of many prestigious shows.
- Yasmin Warsame is a native of Somalia, who moved to Canada and became famous there as one of the most attractive girls in the state.
- Genevieve Naji is another African girl from Nigeria who becomes a famous singer and model outside her homeland.
It is noteworthy that this list can be continued for a very long time, since there are a lot of stunning beauties on this continent. But much more important is that today the world has begun to accept these women as worthy rivals of white-skinned models. Therefore, the myth that all black girls are unattractive also gradually begins to dissipate.
Africans, famous throughout the world
If in the previous chapter the conversation was just about the beautiful women of Africa, then this will focus on the most famous of them. About those whose beauty once and for all changed the world around them, made them kneel before the “black goddesses”.
- In the first place is the Ethiopian supermodel and designer Lia Kebede. This African girl is so popular that Forbes magazine awarded her 11th place among the highest paid models on the planet.
- The second place of honor is occupied by Agbani Darego - a native of Nigeria. She is the first black woman to win Miss World.
- Flaviana Matata is a Tanzanian model who took 6th place in 2007 at the Miss Universe contest. Today, her face represents the brand of one of the most famous fashion houses - Vivienne Westwood.
Past and future
In conclusion, I want to say that Africa is a continent of stunning contrasts. Here the past and the future are harmoniously interwoven, strange and understandable, beautiful and ugly. Therefore, it cannot be said that soon all African girls will look like European. Most likely, most distinctive tribes will continue to follow ancient customs and norms.
However, those of them who nevertheless dare to change, will forever change the world’s view of the women of this region.
