Cute! I like that he seems to know his stuff.
He is right. Some men just do not understand natural hair. I had a young, Black male colleague (interracial parents) comment this week about my hair. We were talking about hair at a work event and he said "Nobody told you to let your hair get that nappy."
Needless to say, the tables turned and I had to show him the other side of me since he clearly had it twisted and believed he could joke with me about hair. I gave him a hair lesson but he probably will still make such comments....until it gets him cut.
