Maybe a lot of Black women still feel "less than," so they have to step on someone else. There's just this jockeying for position that I see. <br /><br />Also, that chick on Yahoo does need to get over herself, who asked if she was a quarter this and a teaspoon that?! She's not even Black so what does she care? It just seemed a little shady to me.Aishahttp://ahsia.posterous.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5842233710834566812.post-2543341416230861572011-12-10T16:59:29.499-05:002011-12-10T16:59:29.499-05:00Yes exactly!

It seems that every other week, ...I am with you! <br /><br />It seems that every other week, when I do my blog browsing, there is at least one post about this very topic to be found. OVER IT! <br /><br />Everybody should just rock their hair how they want and call it a day. Also from experience,everyone should watch what they say because you never know when you'll find yourself in the bathroom mirror with creamy crack in hand after being natural for over a decade only to shave the straight tresses off a few months later because you miss your fro or the reverse... I'm just saying...I found myself there once.<br /><br />I realized years ago, like India Arie, that I am not my hair so it doesn't matter what I do with it... I mean give me the potion that rids us of bad hair days (relaxed or natural) and then I won't stop talking... Do with your hair what makes you feel fierce!
