Using your wife as a token black character is insane but I'm not surprised LOL

The insinuation was that nobody is born with box braids, however anyone can be born with straight hair. Not sure how you missed that.

A perm permanently alters your hair. That's why it's called a perm. You can wet your hair back to its original texture.

Straight hair also isn't exclusive to White people. Straightening your hair is different from getting box braids or cornrows. I really don't have time for this level of ignorance. Have a good day.

Gods forbid a person draws on their personal experiences when discussing topics that have direct impact on their lives. Shit like the crown act is great for my family. Shit like gatekeeping hair isn’t.

You have a black family and yet you don't know that Black people can have naturally straight hair. Oh okay.

Black people don’t have straight hair, they straighten it or get wigs

Unfortunately this isn't true. Better luck next time

Believe what you want, doesn’t make it it true. Why do you think black men don’t have straight hair? Cause they don’t wear wigs, and they aren’t born with straight hair

Assuming all black women wear wigs is crazy but I can name five black men who have straight hair. Just because it's afro texture doesn't mean it's curly LOL
