that was my thought, too...heh.

I’ve never understood this...I’m “a woman of color,” and I’ve *never* felt the need for a safe space. I’d prefer a space where people can speak their minds and challenge one another.

But her hair is short—how would she be able to put it up?

Weird, it gave me the creeps...

But if talcum/deodorant are so dangerous, wouldn’t it be equally dangerous to put it on yr under arms? It’s not as though it’s suddenly goingt o be safe for you in one area and dangerous in another area.

Why are people saying it’s insane and obviously a bad idea? It would never occur to me to do it, but why is it obviously a horrible idea? Is it obvious it would cause cancer or something?

im nonwhite and I support Bernie...

But the drinking doesn’t make sense—doesn’t she only have about one sip?

If they got the idea that a rape didn’t occur, they sure didn’t get it from the documentary. They make it very clear what happened.

You’re wondering about the instinct to survive? I mean...it’s one thing to know intellectually it doesn’t matter if you exist but it’s another to just give up and basically die...

Is there a danger of attracting vermin, in that case? I’d be worried about keeping it around...

I don’t think it’s that weird. I have shoulder length hair (though very thick), and I never run with it in a ponytail. It doesn’t really stay, and I end up having to adjust it half the time. Easier just to let it fall free and not worry about it.
