Sorry... what are you talking about?

Well I was going by the logic that illegitimate child wouldn't tule Egypt, but that may in fact that be the case, but the argument that her mother isn't known for sure as an argument that she was black is not very strong, when the only depiction of her being black comes from Jada I cheat on my husband then make him talk about it on video Smith

You're still making no sense.

What does illegitimacy have to do with it?

Why can't her father have been legitimately married to a dark-skinned woman?

Edit: Wait, you know the Ptolemys, like all pharaohs, had multiple wives, right?

Probably went into it thinking with a too European, bloodline, mindset

What's funny to me is that all the people complaining that she was too dark had no problem with the fact that she was too beautiful.

Well to be fair that's a coin from thousands of years ago, even today it's not hard to make absolutely deformed shit.

Though I wouldn't be surprised either if her famous beauty was widespread sarcasm that got taken seriously, and it also wouldn't surprise me if she was actually beautiful and people wanted to demean her, like Napoleon is depicted as short even though he wasnt

As far as I know, Caesar and Anthony wrote about being attracted to her intelligence, not her looks.
