His mom hasn't brought this to the attention of the internet to get bullies to leave her kid alone. His mom has brought this to the attention of the internet to call out the school, which has taken a bullshit, bully-enabling stance, and get them to change that.

I don't think his mom has brought this to the attention of news/internet to make bullies stop bullying her son, it's to bring awareness to the school choosing a path of least resistance to the bullying. You say him being bullied is not ideal, but reality. She is saying we need to change that reality.

Isn't the point that all of these are lies people tell?

What the fuck, do you live under a rock? I fried my hair lifting it last year. When I was a teenager my mom used to call my hair "fried, dyed and to the side" because I would bleach it platinum, and then dye it green, and then bleach to platinum, and then dye it magenta, and then bleach to platinum and dye it blue.…

Duh, don't you know Black Women can't think for themselves. They need help and explanation from other people. #Whitesplaining

>I've never known any of my white friends wearing weaves that are afros (not their own texture) or nor do white women use the same chemicals that are so destructive to scalps and internally to your health, as the chemicals used in black hair. But I'm sure there's exs of some of it, and I think it's unhealthy if that's…

>(People with curly hair are often ethnically African, Eastern European, or Latino, which are all historically discriminated-against groups.)

>Of course an opinion you don't like and I get called a "bitch".I don't care that you ask me to take a seat. I made an opinion about a post about Lupita's beauty and how refreshing it is to see that natural hair. the comparison to skin bleaching and destroying your hair, scalp, and I believe often the psychology of…

> I do think white women trying to get darker is not healthy and a bad practice. I don't think it's b/c they are trying to be black or indian, though they may admire darker skin.

>It doesn't matter if I'm "not subject to these pressures".

What? Do you think curly weaves or extensions don't exist? Why are you so concerned with texture as an indicator of "authentic hair"? What about Asian women who straighten their naturally curly hair? Are they not loving their Asian-ness, or are they making themselves more Asian?

OH DAMN WHAT? I'm not Black either, but at least I have the good sense to listen and learn from my Black friends.

Also, why do you keep banging on about texture, as if that's then end all be all of blackness, or "authentic" hair? Tonnes of white women get perms, and tons of white women with curly hair get Japanese straighteners. Oh yeah, did you know that? That the Japanese pioneered new straightening techniques to tame their…

>when a white or indian women wears a weave, it is the texture of their OWN hair. I'm kindof astounded that some people want to use that as an excuse to damage their scalp, skin, and hair and costs of thousands of dollars, when it is not their hair texture and it's so much easier (and in imo prettier) to maintain your…

such big photos :(

My point about amero-centric wank about what constitutes dog abuse stands. If a dog in Ireland can live outside and it's fine, then a dog in the USA can live outside, and it's fine. They are both domesticated canines. Do you think working dogs are naturally more hardy or some shit? You do realise that the dog who went…

Um, it would seem so :) We are getting a lurcher next. Do you guys live here? We are in Dublin. If you are here, we should meet up, because I have never met another jezebeller in the flesh, and it's been hard for me to make friends here :(

No, it seems that a black woman's hair is still not her own. It seems really fucking infantalising to say that other women can make beauty choices based on their preferences, but Black women can't.

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.
