so nice that the girls changed things. sadly hair is extremely politicized everywhere. and just 15 year ago relaxed hair (chemically straighten) was the norm. but than the natural hair movement happened and now its a huge generational divide. I will always be against relaxers because they double your risk of certain types of cancer. My first major act of teen rebellion was cutting off my relaxed hair with kitchen scissors when i was 15. I used to have constant oozing sores on my head from the relaxer. my mother was so pissed she called every family member to tell them i looked homeless. I told her I "was no longer conforming to the eurocentric patriarchy beauty standards" and she said "I dont know what that means, you look ridiculous". I have a 10000 hair stories, people coming up to me and petting me without saying a word, a BLACK boss making me cover my natural hair because i was trying to start locs, so much so that some of my Muslim customers assumed I was Muslim but I never denied it because that was too awkward, like 5 diffrent white toddlers have pointed to my hair and asked "whats that" back in my babysitting for rich people days.
like I said, I dont think your being creepy. I think you could have phrased that much differently friend.
This girl is incredibly beautiful
did not communicate your point.
oh yeah he sucked. he was the head manager and his dad was the owner. I think he was attracted to me because all my male coworkers kept saying he was, but he was so mean all the time to me in particular so idk. don't worry I no one besides him called me that, but it was super damaging to my young self esteem. I felt better by calling him a virgin and all my coworkers went "ooooooohhh" fun times (problematic to make fun of someone for being a virgin in retrospect I know). would you believe i left that workplace because he wouldn't do anything when a coworker was sexually harassing me?
we dont need to comment on the beauty of a 16 year old on an article about workplace discrimination. its just not neccesarry. it would still be discrimination is she wasn't beautiful or her hairstyle wasnt considered conventionally attractive. not implying your creepy just that we dont need to value women for their looks.
its really nice that her parents support her.
this is why i kept a picture of melanasains my phone as a teen lying to white people was one of my fav things for a bit.
have they never seen a biracial person on tv? like? poor kid, when I was 16 i got black box braids and I felt great until my boss started calling me the predator and tried to make all of my coworkers call me the predator instead of my name.
very cool
do you actually think everything people do is sexual pathology?
its been hours you still here? you sure this isnt your kink?
my white family members sing a racist version of brown eyed girl. loved it as a kid, and im pretty sure they took out the stuff about black people. I would make them sing it in a bar for my birthdays from like 4-8. it was pretty bad.
I think its nice
