A dime with curly hair, 4 ft 11 inches, sweet cherry lips, caramel skin and shorty got her own whip too... Damn that's what you been waiting for your whole life, right? There are three things you can do: Walk by her and slap her butt, grab her hand and say something sweet or be a punk and just keep it moving. What's it gonna be?

Braids, 6 ft 5 inches, abs, a nice car, chocolate complexion and smellin' like that Ralph Lauren Blue. He comes over and says, "hey beautiful," and grabs your hand. There are three things you can do: smile, kiss your teeth or keep on walking like you never saw his face. What's it gonna to be?

Toronto's downtown Yonge St. is flooded with males and females of all ages, ethnicities and cultures during Caribana weekend ready to get their playa on. Everyone comes dressed to impress, wanting to be a must-see. Having your preferences and opinions allows you to keep your options open. Looking, observing or maybe even getting to touch if you're lucky. But in actuality that boy or girl will not belong to you; the most that will belong to you by the end of the night is his/her number.

That triggers the question, what is your ultimate Caribana girl/boy? Urbanologymag.com hit the streets to find the answer to that question and here's what our good readers told us:



James Logan: "I don't know. It's a hard question. A lot of girls catch my attention... girls that are on their grind, doing their own thing."

Desiree: "Perfect Caribbean man? American!"

Nailah: "Nice body, nice eyes, nice arms, nice car... not rented."

Jay: "A sweeter ting. Just a sweet black chick. Doesn't matter light... dark... brown, doesn't matter."

Brandon: "A real put together sophisticated looking lady and you know she looks really presentable, that's what my Caribana girl looks like."

Lokz: "I guess a classy light skin girl with frizzy hair."

Robert from Pennsylvania: "American, Canadian, European, I don't give a shit! I like all different ethnicities and cultures. I mean nice hair, nice face and nice body."

Daniel: "Pretty nose... teeth."

Kevin: "Smile, booty, if I she ain't got no booty... Caribana is not the place for her."

Jamal: "I'm not here to chop girls, I'll say a girl is pretty... but that's it."

Jermaine Gabriel: "Nice hair, nice eyes, nice lips and body has to be banging."

Richard: "Doesn't matter."

Troy Jeffers: "She has to look nice, thick legs, curly hair... straight hair... yo, I don't care. Light skin, dark skin, as long as she looks good."

Yana: "I been looking for him right now but, uh, I haven't found him yet. It's tall, chocolate, nice six pack, know how to act kinda man."
