I realize what her intent was. It was evident that she wanted exactly the kind of response that she received - hostility. Not only that, but she gained a moderate amount of publicity. I just thougt it was really tacky of her to say something like that. Though she provided her email address for responses, I refrained because I felt that what she wanted was an overwhelming influx of angry letters from black women to prove her point. My intent was not to start an angry discussion with the post, but rather to show the extreme to which this stereotype thing can go.
