^^^What does that have to do with the fact that straighter hair textures are more structurally sound?

Ah, I see.......... So she's Black.
Most African Americans have a whole bunch of ethnicities represented in their family tree.

This isn't LHCF pc, but every black person in the United States is mixed like that. Unless they just got off the boat (plane, train) from Africa.

howyoudoin Why did being mixed even need to be brought up. Ethnicity is not the factor - texture is. And it is ignorant to assume that all of one race has the same texture. I see more mixed race people with type 4 hair - only the type 3s have longer hair and even they tend to 'only' have APL hair.
It was certainly not an effortless process to go from EL relaxed to BSL natural for me. There are plenty of mixed race women on here and I doubt they would be here if it was so easy for them to have long hair.

^ Says the person that brought up a point that would enviably cause an uproar. I'm not saying you're wrong or right but you opened up a can of worms that you HAD to know people weren't going to take lightly. You'd have to be very naive not to know, new or not.

this is a really dumb comment. STOP LIVING IN FANTASY WORLD, BLACK PEOPLE HAVE DRIER HAIR THAT IS HARDER TO MAINTAIN, YES ITS A GENETIC FACT, YES THERE ARE GENETIC DIFFERENCES, NO ITS NOT MAGIC. i mean, why the delusions???? THIS IS COMMON SENSE.

and that girl is clearly mixed, even without her having to confirm it herself. (and how yall just gone dismiss THIS WOMAN HERSELF saying shes mixed and say "yeah whatever" like it doesnt matter? how pathetic is that?) yes we all have some white in our lineage somewhere but you can tell from pictures when she was a child that she has large percentages of non-white ancestry in her immediately lineage (ie her mother is most likely biracial).
i have no idea why the women on this forum are so terrified of admitting that other races of women have looser hair that grows longer easily AS A DIRECT RESULT OF BEING STRAIGHTER. seriously, why are you people so afraid to acknowledge that? if youre trying to prove black people arent more inferior than anyone else youre doing a really poor job of it if your sense of self is so weak and tenuous you cant even acknowledge basic truths about genetics.

lol, i just wanna know where you got this "genetic fact" from (no shade, but if its a fact you should have references to back it up)...
its all about how you take care of your hair, regardless of race or type...i've seen plenty of black people with moisturized hair, and white ppl with dry arse birds nests soooo...

I admit that's true from my observations. It's just saying someone has "naturally long hair" is synonymous with being mixed is what rubs alot of us the wrong way. I just think that textures (regardless of race) that are straighter and/or less coarse just don't have to do the extra more coarse hair ladies (such as myself), have to. No shade at all because it is what it is. Her hair is still gorgeous.

Agree to disagree, but you don't have to scream to make a point.

you need a science report to explain the physical differences you see in every white, hispanic, and asian woman's hair in comparison to the average black woman's hair?
what is the point of this denial, seriously? enlighten me. im just wondering if this argument is motivated by such low self esteem that people feel better to pretend that its somehow coincidence that generally all black people have coarse kinky hair whereas other races of people do not. why does that make people feel so bad about themselves that they perpetuate delusions? why does admitting that black people have kinky hair MAKE PEOPLE HAVE LOW SELF ESTEEM? srsly. it is so lost on me. i guess i shouldnt be surprised because its the same kind of crap that makes fat people deny that their fat is the cause of their health issues. you know what i mean?
its so pathetic to see this on this board over and over, though.

I guess my definition of mixed is different than others. I wonder why her "mixed" sister doesn't have hair like hers. I guess her mixture is more mixed than her sibling's.
