So like, I love fanfic authors writing black characters. Great job. I’ve found some who do it very well. But I can tell it’s definitely not a black person writing by how many times they say the black character blushes.
No they didn’t. They absolutely did not just get a little embarrassed and their face turned noticeably red. Our faces don’t do that.
I wasn’t around many white people as a child and I thought blushing was more of a physical posture & metaphorical. I was about to say: “Like you know…describing someone as turning red when angry!” But that is also a thing that can literally happen to very pale people…
So, idk. No one is reading this. But it’s a thing I find funny and interesting.
