McKenzie spend her early years wondering why it was that all of her other friends had soles that seemed to match up with the color of their skin. When you're the only black girl in the school, it may not always be easy to get the answers to such uncommon questions. She was hoping that all of the strong black athletes she met in college would help resolve this issue. Given the paucity of black peers early in her life, she figured that perhaps their strong black spunk could return her soles to a nice dark color. She quickly figured out that this wasn't the case. Undeterred, McKenzie kept at the regular foot baths of sperm; she had grown to love the effect her soft, pale soles had on the boys around campus!
