[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Perfectly fine hair style choice or inappropriate/insensitive cultural appropriation? Does it matter if the wearer is 25 vs. 45, or male vs. female? Curious about AA people's opinions...[/quote]

If it was inappropriate, the all the AAs that STRAIGHTEN their hair are just as guilty.  I personally this the AA curls are awesome.  [/quote] +1. Cultural appropriation works both ways. If it us inappropriate for one group, it is inappropriate for the other. This over the top political correct nonsense has got to stop. Copying is the greatest form of flattery. [/quote]

AAs straightening their hair or wearing weaves and wigs has history in assimilation to what was considered "the norm." Learn something before spouting your nonsense.[/quote]

Agreed, by definition cultural appropriation does NOT work both ways. When a minority culture takes on traits of the majority, it's called assimilation. And we flip the fuck out when people don't assimilate. [/quote] But [b]you "flip the fuck out" if any whittle person dares to come near your culture.[/b] THAT is fucking nonsense--it us the ultimate form of flattery and you are too damn ignorant and biased to see that. Good grief.[/quote]

Do we really?  Look at all the White hip-hop artists that have been successful.  Look at the White folks who sing R&B.  AA's in general have not flipped out and have actually embraced those Whites who are sincere about the art form.  [/quote] There has a been a lot of criticism of white rappers...don't pretend all is sunshine and snowflakes.[/quote]
