NOPE. The beauty of black hair is that it's so versatile. Black women can pull off anything- straight hair, Afros, locks, braids, crops- it all looks good on us. That's what's wonderful. But how you style your hair is just an expression of personal style for most of us, not a grand statement on our blackness. I'm…

Never ever recommend Good Hair to anyone ever.

It's a false equivalence because perms & weaves have practical advantages that skin bleaching does not. In my experience & that of many others, what straight hair costs in money, natural hair costs in time. Depending on a woman's situation & schedule, one may be more valuable than the other.

Um, I live in Ireland, a nation of primarily pasty white people, and almost every woman I know here has hair extensions, false hair glued directly to their hair. Wanting weaves, or chemical styles such as perms or relaxing doesn't mean that you don't love yourself, or are unhappy, it means you want different hair.

Don't say "girl crush".

A woman's standard of beauty is her own. We wear makeup, high heels, we shave our legs, we pluck our eyebrows, we pierce our ears, and yes, some of us straighten our hair and get weaves. These are our own choices. You are certainly free to your opinion about what a shame it is that we make these choices but looking…

Chris Rock's documentary was quite lightweight and not very educational, in my opinion. He didn't really say much, and the inclusion of the hair show stuff was unnecessary and pulled focus from what I assume he was trying to do.

I agree that you shouldn't put down women who straighten their hair, but I think it is also fair and good to lament the overall lack of visible black women in the media who do NOT straighten their hair or use weaves.

I mean the takeaway that I always took from Good Hair is not "these people are doing a bad thing and…

I am all for critically examining the beauty standard, personally and on a societal/cultural level, but I am really uncomfortable with saying that natural hair is better, and that women who straighten their hair don't love themselves/their blackness. I am well aware of the whiteness of the mainstream beauty ideal, but…

Let's not put down women who straighten their hair, okay? That can be just as problematic as criticizing women who wear their hair natural.

Some folks need to be bossed around a bit. That's why bossy people tend to succeed.

RuPaul pretty indifferent about gender pronouns. "You can call me he. You can call me she. You can call me Regis and Kathie Lee; I don't care! Just as long as you call me."

They are just all kinds of beautiful.

Is it just me or does the Lindsay thing actually look good? It looks like its got some depth. The scene with her dad—tragic.

Ugh, I know it was a 2 second clip, but Michael Lohan and the whole "well if that is what you think happened" was enough to make my blood boil. This poor girl never stood a chance.

I am just SO tired of Lindsay Lohan. So tired.

I generally refer to the person as "he" and the persona as "she". The persona RuPaul, in the wig, did the albums, so I think "she" would be correct.

Gary Busey and Courtney Stodden hung out. I would love to know what they talked about.

The Lindsay trailer isn't available in my part of the world, and that is making me much more sad than it should. Damn

God bless you, RuPaul. That's about the funniest way to deal with pirates I can think of.
