Has anyone noticed a tendancy for african and mixed providers to post black and white photos (or sepia) that make it very uncertain as to what their race is?  

I suppose this is intentional, but it seems deceptive to me.  And it seems dangerous.  If you're trying to trick people that don't like darker skinned ladies, then you could find some very angry people who show up and find something different.  Not only that, there are plenty of guys that like chocolate, and you're just confusing them as well.

It's gotten to the point that I simply assume a black and white photo means the girl is darker skinned.  Note to providers... make sure you don't have only black and white photos posted, otherwise you're likely to lose a lot of business from people similar to myself.

I don't notice any difference at all.
after many years of service if anything I'm more occupied .
 
Here's something :
If a provider is reviewed here or another place then you know what nationality she is wouldn't you ? I believe so.
its not up to anyone what we choose to display but us alone. Unless it's a special request.

Oh by the way how well mine or any other ladies business does shouldn't be of your concern really.

....otherwise you're likely to lose a lot of business from people similar to myself.

Please, be more specific.  When you refer to "people like myself," what characteristics are you referring to?  Intellect?  Tact?  Judgement?  Level of bigotry?

Very good retort, 3 Cups.

I also want to know what "dangerous" means.
Does that mean verbal abuse or worse
would ensue just because a lady is "darker" than her pics suggested Or mean that certain skin tones are more dangerous than others  ? Last I checked desperate knows no color and is dangerous wherever you are. All I have to say is  Really? Well I must be VERY VERY double dog dangerous as I am freckled from head to toe so no one knows what color I am now there's no telling what I could do  :p
Eeeeeep!!!!!!!!!
Sorry
That statement is just Too open ended for me to not assume the worst .

Everyone has their tastes.  I guess I'm a skin and bones bigot cause I'm not much for the "spinners".   Its one thing to not serve someone at the lunch counter and another to be or not be attracted to a specific look or feature.

Well that's fine and dandy,
but as a provider who primarily uses B&W photos it does not affect me any..
The trend is not intending to deceive, I think some ladies like myself like that vintage look
I mean what did hobbyists do when color photos werent available back then ? They read review books.
It was Very simple.
Also Logically a human being with normal eyesight should be able to tell if a lady is dark or light skinned regardless.
My questions are related to
the open ended " dangerous " and generalized " all B&W photos I assume shes dark comment.
I still dare anyone to make attempt at counting all my freckles.

"I still dare anyone to make attempt at counting all my freckles."

It's not the freckles that would make it difficult, it's the many distractions that you present!

Who cares if the provider is attractive to you, heck, she can be orange or purple.

Fact is b&s can happen no matter what kind of photos.
