I'm sorry that you are hurt and frustrated. However, just like there is white privilege, there is light-skin privilege. This is America and until we all recognize it and sterilize the issue with sunshine, we will never get past it. As a child, did you ever notice people oohing and aahing at for you while the cute little brown child was ignoring. When you were a teen did you notice the black guys passing all the girls the color of their sisters and mother to talk to you? Open your eyes.

I call bullshit. And its always the blacks shouting united we stand trying to break the us down as a people smh.

My god will everyone just shut up about "privlege" already! Yes, light/pretty/tall/skinny/rich/­male/blonde/straight/whatever people are "privleged". Stop fucking whining about it and actually make a change if it's such an issue to you! Instead of hating people who are born a certain way, hate the system that perpetuates it! If you're American, black or white, you are privleged anyway. If you can read, you are privleged. Ugh... people just..... ugh!

@porkchop745 True...

@blossom23 if some one's hair isn't chemically treated, it is considered natural whether they're white or black. You can't just determine a new definition for natural lol ~ it is what it is. And of course I can consider myself a part of any community I want to ~ I wasn't asking for your permission, but I WAS pointing how ignorant you sounded when you said that us curly haired girls were trying to weasel into a "movement" ~ what movement? I am natural because it is the right thing for ME.

I SO TOTALLY AGREE WITH THIS VIDEO...I DID TWO VIDEOS TALKING ABOUT THIS SITUATION I'm still learning not to give a fuck what "black girls say"

cont: black women STARE ME DOWN and make rude sly little comments. I asked my mom one day when I was frustrated "why the F do they look @me that way!!!" I walk in walmart, and "my own" people look at me like im an alien. I wont give my opinion as to why it is, because it really doesnt matter, the point is...it must stop. I can be black, with nice curly hair (or "different" hair for that matter) with out having being made to feel like im the one with the problem. F them sista!

[LovelyCurlyElle]

well... Im late, and I know it...but I MUST COMMENT!!! I too feel the way you seem to be feeling right now. Im not a "follower" of yours [yet :)] but I must say that I totally feel what you are feeling. I have always said that people react 1 of 2 ways to me and my hair...because I am brown skinned with curly-not really kinky- hair, most of the time people ask me if I am mixed/biracial. my answer is no- I am mistaken for Dominican, Rican, Brazilian...you name it...anything but black "american"...

[mrssheshe69]

we are the same. I embrace you and your journey. keep on rocking your beautiful curls....you are natural and you are one of "us"

People often project on others what they feel about themselves whether good or bad.
