I have a feeling no matter what I say people will see it in their own way. Calling me "narrow minded" is a joke that is why I asked for someone to explain it to me so I would understand better. Egotistical only on some subjects and don't confuse confidence with arrogance. Calling me racist is pretty bad seeing as how my best friend at work is from Barbados and I would count him as one of the nicest guys on the face of the planet, someone you can count one in times of need. He has been to my house to hang-out and for dinner on multiple occasions. My wife and son like him, as a person NOT as a black man. He even gets insulted when people call him an African American, and I don't blame him.
You wrote, "any time these black women change something", something is NOT what I said HAIR ONLY. I NEVER said they want to be WHITE I said they want their HAIR to be like Europeans. Don't put words in my mouth. So to you it would have been better if I said, it seems they want their hair like Europeans, South Americans, Canadians, Asians, should I include Eskimos too and every other pocket of humanity who doesn't have to straighten their hair? Saying Europeans seemed like an easy way of covering a big area of the globe that have straight hair.
If you want to insult me fine, but it would be nice if you didn't twist what I said to make your insult sound apt.
Another perfect example, "And since when did all black women have fake hair?" Where in my post did I say all? Oh that's right, NEVER.
#12 - "I’m not black, but every woman has the right to straighten their hair if they want"
I NEVER said they didn't have a "right" to change their hair. To be honest it isn't a right, don't confuse that word with Constitutional "rights", it's their choice to do what they want with their hair and I agree.
#14 - "Caliban, you can ask white women why don’t they be their natural selves also. Stop pumping their lips, asses, and boobs up, tanning beyond the limit, and except your naturally skinny miss six o’clock pale self."
I know why women do those things to their body, vanity.
#15 - "And like white women don’t wear fake hair. Everybody does. Why single black women out?"
I NEVER said why do black women wear fake hair I asked why do they straighten it.
#16/17 - "Why are you singling black women out? You act like they are the only women with naturally kinky hair. Have you seen Hawaiians? Fijans?"
Because this thread revolves around a black woman, or half black as some have said but I can't prove that.
#22 - "Why on God’s green earth would you dumb ass fucks assume black girls straighten their hair to look white???"
I am not sure if you were referring to me but I guess this is the core of the problem, I said "European", but since people see things in black and white they automatically assume I am saying black women want to be white.
Missy was the only one who actually answered my question in a logical way without making an assumption about where I was coming from.
If anyone misinterpreted what I said I am sorry, it seems if I used the word Asians instead of European none of this would have been necessary and so many assumptions about me wouldn't have been made. if you want to lump me into the same category as the racist Wiseman and Allah that is your choice. It's all about perception.
Here is another question, why do Japanese artists make their eyes huge in cartoons when in reality they are no where near that big. Is that a racist question, I am sure someone will find a way to make it.
