Consanguineous (ˌkɒnsaŋˈɡwɪnɪəs)

Meaning of consanguineous in English:

consanguineous

ADJECTIVE

Relating to or denoting people descended from the same ancestor.
‘consanguineous marriages may give rise to recessive syndromes’

Origin
Early 17th century from Latin consanguineus ‘of the same blood’ (from con- ‘together’ + sanguis ‘blood’) + -ous.

Pronunciation /ˌkɒnsaŋˈɡwɪnɪəs/
‘We use the patterns of homozygosity at multiple loci to distinguish between excess homozygosity caused by consanguineous mating and that due to undetected population subdivision.’
‘It makes feasible the analysis of multilocus data observed on general pedigrees containing possibly consanguineous marriages and missing information.’
Horizontal lines represent crosses, thick horizontal lines are consanguineous crosses, and vertical lines represent descendants from such matings.’
‘Fully recessive mutations are maintained in higher frequencies than partially recessive ones and thus cause greater declines in fitness under consanguineous matings.’
‘Thus deleterious recessives had not been eliminated from the population to the extent that consanguineous matings were harmless in terms of offspring viability.’
‘The most obvious is the mating system, which generates ‘short-term’ inbreeding, i.e., inbreeding caused by one or a few generations of consanguineous matings.’
‘Thus, there also is no evidence for extensive consanguineous mating in the polygyne population of S. geminata that we studied.’

Coonskin

Word meaning Darkskin but in a demeaning way. Africans are affected the most by colorism, and are inflicted with the european standard of beauty. For example when Africans were brought as slaves to the U.S they were forced to get rid of their ethnic hair hence starting the tradition of straightening hair. The lightest slave was conisdered too good to be a field nigga and instead were house niggas. The lightest slave women was raped by the plantation owner and created lightskin children which progressively got lighter as generations of this went on thus creating lightskin black people. Their big noses and lips were conisdered ugly as well hence the stereotypes of those 1930's cartoons. Today lightskin black women are seen more favorably and so is straight hair compared to the natural thick and curly ethnic hair, even black men prefer lightskins and other races over darkskin black women. Also Lightskin Black men are more liked by society and more respected and considered higher class and more educated than Darkskin Black men. Lot of self hating Darkskin Blacks out there like Uncle Ruckus, Uncle Tom, Oprahside, and Michael Jackson due to colorism.
Example 1: Darkskin Black Women: Hey Tay, you wanna comeback to my place tonight
Tay: (This nigga is fucking darker than this women) Hell no, don't nobody want you and yo big ass nose and hair looking like a damn lighthouse bitch, if I see one more Coonskin bitch try to holla at me I'm popping the Uzi out on that hoe.
Niggas: that's right Tay we don't fuck with Coonskins, lightskin bitches for the win my nigga
Lightskin Black Women: (Walks in doesn't even look at the niggas)

Niggas and Tay: Damn she fine as fuck, Ima get on that with her
Darkskin Black Women: (cries but no one gives a fuck)

Example 2: Darkskin Black Man: Hey what's going on here
Po-Lice: Hey this blood crip thug nigga robbed the bank, get on the ground Coonskin, (actually a light skin man did it)
Darkskin Black Man: But officer I wasn't affiliated with this at all, I just got here, look there's the robber right there
Po-Lice: No way he's Lightskin, now get on the ground nigga

Darkskin Black Man: But sir he's holding a bag full of money and a gun, he is the robber
Po-Lice: Alright that's it you stupid gangster Coonskin nigger, (start beating his ass brutally send him to prison for 10 years on a false charge), Lightskin Black Man becomes a model named Jeremy Meeks}.
