Gravity defying hair, skin soaking up the rays of the sun and smiles brighter than the moon. Black women are beautiful beyond the visions of billboards.

Ready to fill your life with a sweetness, that no candy will satisfy. In honor of all the beautiful black women walking among us today, we celebrate you as the ultimate Valentine.

I asked a group of men what they love about black women. One thing they all agreed upon was that, melanin is magical. Being with a black woman is different than being with any other ethnicity. These men love the way you speak up ladies. Your lips are full, sharp, supple, and your voice matters. The attitude many are intimidated by, has an alluring affect that drives, only the most durable of souls. Many feel that black women’s beauty is so different and versatile when in comparison to other cultures, that it is misunderstood and often misinterpreted.

Nick, a comedian of European descent quotes, “designers need a less engaging canvas for their material.” He feels natural curves are so appealing, many designers might be threatened by a woman with such profound sensual physicality. This could be why many models of African descent with fuller figures have not been represented.

Joe, a Polynesian and European entrepreneur, loves black women so much, he won’t respect American society, due to the lack of positivity surrounding the essence of black women. His favorite thing about each beautiful browned goddess is her hair. He loves curly hair. Each strand of coil or spiral, reaches out with an invitation to explore a real life work of art.  He wouldn’t change anything about the way Black women were made. And neither would I.

This inner strength black women hold, comes from a concentrated background of proud, courageous and creative lineage. This Valentines’ day, your soul will crave every infinite fragrance, spicy note and tender gesture that comes with the vast variety of black femininity across the globe. So instead of rose petals, throw love at her feet. Light some candles, but ignite her desires just as eagerly. Allow her bronzed frame to embrace you and melt over your spirit. Listen to her ideas, her pains and her history. Indulge within yourself, a cultural curiosity that leads to the understanding of how to love a black woman best.

Ladies, everything from the infinite varieties of our skin tones to the cosmic combinations of our hair textures, you are loved by men and women all over the world.

You intimidate with how specific your beauty is, and the world is learning how to welcome such variance. You are the leading group of college graduates and entrepreneurs in this country. Men see this power and some are overawed by this nature. You are an enterprise, booming with status. There are many who will embrace you as a woman of African descent and admire every curve on your body and coil on your crown.

So this Valentine’s day, smile knowing that you are a gift from the most high. An inspiration of light, and worthy of love. No store run needed for that chocolate fix honey. You got it already. Coco, caramel, black sapote beauty queen. There is nothing else like you.
