I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend anyone.Especially anyone here. If this has offended anyone else, please know that it was done by accident.
Girl please! There's no reason to apologize.
Not to hijack this thread but it I just wanted to make a point about something that a few of us have mentioned in either this thread or others before it. Many of us have agreed that even people in this forum have been guilty of making unnecessary or rude comments to one another. I totally agree. However I have also noticed that there are times when people are very careful about what they say yet they are still attacked by people who are so hypersensitive about a particular subject that they either skip or ignore or words like “some”, “few” or “many“ (all words that make a big difference in who you're talking about) and as a result end up getting offended when they didn't have to be.
For instance, when I read your comment I didn't read anything that said that you felt that all women who wore their hair natural were “natural Nazis “. In fact I distinctly remember you saying that “some” naturals feel more superior and say prideful and hurtful things and that’s who you refer to as “Natural Nazis”. Therefore I took it to mean that you weren't talking about all naturals but just those who choose to act that way. Therefore unless someone considers themselves to be a superior acting natural who says things that come across as prideful or hurtful, there's no reason for them to be offended because you obviously weren't talking about them! :wink2:
As far as the YouTube video showing a baby/child getting her hair relaxed is concerned, I don't think that it was so much a matter of people wanting her to be natural for naturals sake but because it's already been proven that relaxers are strong. Both relaxed and naturals know this so chances are both relaxed and natural headed women were horrified by the fact that it was being put on the baby more than anything else! Now if only they would be nicer or say something intelligent when conveying their opinions, then it would make for great conversation. But we can't have everything, can we?.……..*sigh*
