Having black parents doesn't mean you're black. Having black skin means you're black.

Nobody ignored his post. He stated the obvious that she isn't black. The fact that she's blond with blue eyes shows that.

one drop rule is real. she has black ancestry. she's black

even if she procreates with a white person, its possible the baby could have negroid features

The one drop rule is only real to people that want to take advantage of it. If you aren't even half black, you aren't black...hell, if you aren't black, you aren't black. She is whiter than most white folk.

So by the one drop rule, if a black person has any white ancestry, they are white. See where that is going? And people wonder why Tiger Woods doesn't claim to be black since he is part Chinese.

I had an former co-workers who was essentially a white girl with blue eyes and curly dark hair who had a biological black father who was pretty dark. He was a Jamaican with very little overt evidence of whiteness in his genetic makeup. She took after her white mother, however. I asked her one time after perusing her Facebook account if the man tagged in some photographs of her with him was indeed her biological father, and it was. I was immediately deleted and blocked, as she was painfuly insecure about being overtly "black". In other words, it was offensive to her that her "blackness" would be questioned sincerely given how she didn't look black in the slightest. It was funny.

She's bi-racial most likely. Her mother also looks like she may have been biracial. But, she does look pretty white.

look around. when a white person and black person procreate there's a far, far greater chance the baby will take on more black features. the girl in the OP however, beat the odds

No...the one drop rule usually means the person is considered part of the minority race. Therefore she is black.

I've met several folks like that who took much more from their white parent. It's not common because dark skin is usually the dominant one, but it does happen. It worked out for her, anyways, because she's more attractive as she is than if she would've taken more from her mother.

I have too, but not so much to be mistaken for a white person. As far as attractiveness goes, that's subjective.

Based on her skin colour and physical traits, she is only "Black" if she considers herself black.

Too expand on that: I know some of people that have 1/4 (or whatever amount) Navajo blood, and based on arbitrary BS, they technically qualify as Native American on the census, but, they don't look Native American, and they are completely separate from the Navajo culture. They don't consider themselves to be Native American based upon technicalities of the Blood quantum laws. If you call them Navajo/Native American/Indian, they refute it, because for all reasonable intents and purposes, they are Caucasian/Latino/non-native [depends on parents and the culture they grew up in], technicalities be damned. They don't consider themselves Native American, so really, they are not.

Well, the concept of race is retarded yet we give it validity. I don't know how some folks can give validity to one element of a social construction and not the other.
