Don't touch my hair shirt complete with rules

[Sesi]

That isn't completely correct. The "I love my hair" shirt had the muppet from the Sesame Street song on it...yes, it was a muppet with an afro, but still a muppet. The shirt was made by a company (Mighty Fine), and they only had like, 3-4 models for their entire site...and if I recall correctly, they were all white and there was one Asian chick. IMO (just my opinion), it would have been more offensive for them to hire a Black woman to model that shirt only, as it would be obviously different from the rest of the models on the site.

Ay caramba - it seems my powers of observation are not as astute as i thought they were

thanks for clarification.

I guess an even bigger ahh would be appropriate: AHHH... thanks.

I would never wear anything that said angry black woman on it

i like the shirt. only because i work with people who think all of those things on the back of that shirt are OK!

i get the following weekly ----

"pet"

asked if my hair is real (without discretion, i mean in a room full of people in a loud tone)

subjected to discussions about "perm"/ no perm/ good hair / nappy hair ...especially since chris rock did the movie GOOD HAIR.


THE ABOVE HAS ANNOYED ME SINCE I WAS THE ONLY AA CHILD IN AN ALL WHITE SCHOOL AT THE AGE OF 12. i have always worked in environments with lots of unexposed white people and i find the above insulting, annoying, infuriating and, at it's worst, subliminally racist.

i understand people thinking it's not that big of a deal if you aren't subjected to it regularly, but i am and it's horrible. the longer my hair gets, the worse it becomes.
