Yeah....we've gotten these comments often (all three of our youngest babies are AA).
Most of the time, it just depends on how or who is asking. It's the 'how' more than not; and in the negative sense, I do believe it's because that particular person has a problem with the darker skin. (Again, it's all in how it's asked, I suppose.)
Most of us who have AA babies, know they go through a process of 'toasting' as one of my friends referred to it; and yet, I don't think I've ever heard any person remark that a CC baby was 'sooo white', have they?
Again, I think it has a lot more to do with HOW it's asked, rather than the question at all. In our case, we've heard these comments 'both' ways.

Sincerely,

Linny
