“I’ve gone out with guys and they’ve been like, “You’re real cool for a light skinned girl.” And I played dumb like, “Oh, what do you mean? ‘Cool for a light-skinned girl?’” I like to trip people up and get them to talk more. Like how do you sound right now? Of course, that would be the end of the date for me. If that’s your mentality, I have no idea what other things you’re dealing with and I don’t really care to know.”
