How To Describe Characters - Tumblr Posts

2 years ago

Hello!! Im looking for some tips on how to describe characters that aren't, well to be frank, white. As a white person myself I find leaning to words that I'm not sure are actually okay to use. Like "almond shaped eyes" "chocolate brown skin" etc. I don't want to offend or even trigger my readers so I'm looking for help to describe my characters in a way that isn't racist.

The characters I need help with are inspired by Jimin, J-Hope, Suga and V from my BTS, along with caracters inspired Vanessa Morgan, Zendya and Kat Graham. Please be kind, as I am doing this because I don't want to hurt people. Other than that, anything you can give me is appreciated.
