Recently, I commented that if I never heard a particular argument about relaxed/natural or kinky/straight hair, I would be alright with that. I did my best to let the OP know I was in no way concerned with the fact that she posted her cousin's experience. It's just that the argument (in general, and wherever it happens in the world) is an old one and prayerfully we can move on from it one day.
I never went back to the thread again until just a few moments ago.
I just want to say that I apologize if I ruffled anyone's feathers. That wasn't what I meant to do. Everyone was saying what I was saying...but they worded it better.
I think my intention and tone were both misunderstood. I have no interest in the least in censoring anyone...just wanted to express that I feel badly when others (like whoever was talking to your cousin) have the nerve the say that people feel self hate when they straighten their hair. That's what I was *yawning* on....not the OP at all! I am not like that. This board is a safe haven for me and a place to come to relax, not a place to go start an argument as it seems some people are always ready to do. I really don't have an argumentative bone in me.
Ayway...to the OP of that closed thread, I apologize. I just *yawn*@ pushy, overbearing, highly opinionated folk who won't let others just exist on the planet in a way that makes them comfortable - straight hair or kinky/curly hair. Everyone should be free to rock their own hairstyle.
It made me sad that I was misunderstood, but, that happens sometimes when writing...and because I rarely go back to see responses to what I write, I totally missed this one.
Is there anyone else on here in LHCF who is like me and comments and then forgets about the thread almost entirely?
Sorry ya'll.
Love ya'll.
