What, exactly, is the difference between straightening hair and lightening skin or getting plastic surgery to have 'whiter' features? I have been wondering this, but didn't want to be told I have too much time on my hands for even thinking about it. Why do we turn our noses up at some things, but are accepting of others? For example, Michael Jackson. Or is it that he took it too far? Why can we talk about our images in the media and that be ok, but when we talk about our hair, then we are either stuck in the 60's or we have too much time on our hands? What is that about?

BoutIt, you are beautiful, just like God made you!!! It's a trip, because my friend said the same thing. She thinks my hair is just beautiful, because it fits me. But she thinks her natural hair would be ugly on her. We're beautiful, ladies, straight, natural, or otherwise!!!
