I know that for many black men the issue of natural hair is a topic that rarely or never crosses their minds and most of them could care less whether or not your hair is natural or relaxed. There are those who are aware of the history behind black women and their hair. For them, that awareness serves to intensify their love and admiration of the strength and beauty of the black woman. Then there are those who are blinded by stereotypes, and therefore, places black women with natural hair in one of two categories: they either are strong ultra afrocentric Sister Souljah chics or free spirited, back to the motherland, back to the basics, all natural chics. These do not necessarily have to be negative, but they are sometimes seen that way. I once spoke to a guy who, after a few conversations, came up with the conclusion that I was a ‘one with nature, back to the motherland, afrocentric’ kinda chic because of my choice to wear my natural hair, my choice of music, and a few other things. Even though his conclusion was somewhat accurate, he upset me because of the negative connotation he associated with his comment. It’s just really nice to know that there are guys who appreciate black women for all that they are, including their natural hair.Midian A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18101387454339060051noreply@blogger.com
