shade shaming

Shade shaming: mocking, ridiculing, or teasing someone about the amount of melanin in their skin. #shadeshaming

Examples of shade shaming: You're not black enough. You're SO dark!". You need to cover up those freckles!"

or white people, you know you love this one--"you're so PALE! You need some sun!" And of course, there's the infamous "what ARE you"? The only reason to ask a person "what" they are in terms of race is because you're going to form a new opinion of them based upon their answer, which is...you guessed it...a form of #RACISM.

Shade Whore

Shade Whore is a guy or girl who thinks every thing on social media, like posted statuses or memes are shade thrown out for them. They make a big deal about it, tell their friends and create make up drama for attention or because they feel guilty and need support to feel less guilty. Deep down they're over-sensitive, bad liars with people who easily believe them and and a lot of the time no shade was ever thrown at them. With this definition, you can now evade the lies and drama of a Shade Whore.

A: "I posted this funny meme the other day and X thought I was throwing shade. No, the meme was just funny."

B: "Omg, I made this status that was supposed to be inspirational and X thought I was being fake and throwing shade . X is such a Shade Whore...like no one cares."
