Like what? Kilts? Only Somali men look good in skirts. White people have no culture to lean on. The sad part is White American, White UKlanders, White Australians, White Canadians, White New Zealanders have absolutely thrown away their culture to be a part of a 'homogenous' melting pot of whiteness. They have no remnants of their indigenous languages, they have no remnants of their native foods, cultures etc. Anyways that's going to be me in 20 years so I can't bad mouth them too much.Only heard of cultural appropriation on the internet; must be a new world thing.
Our cadaans have actual culture to celebrate here.

Don't forget baseballAmerican cadaans relied on slaves for cooking,sewing,etc so ironically they lost their culture too. Only thing they have left is their love for guns and bacon

Weaves originated in Ancient EgyptDoes this mean black women have to stop wearing weaves? Or does it only apply to whites?

To be fair, it's bc they're told their hair is ugly. It isn't meant to steal or profit off of straight 1a-3c hair, esp when kinky hair has a negative connotation behind it. Straight white hair is the "ideal", so black women get shit on when they go natural or if they get a weave.
Well, not my problem. I'm too busy dodging the "isn't the hijab hot during the summer" talk from coworkers
This!
Eurocentric ideals of beauty have invaded spaces where it should not be present. Weaves and hair straightening are just some of the many aspects of that. AA women are usually the brunt of that, sometimes AA men will insult their dark skin or thick hair, calling them "nappy headed" as an insult.
And let's be real, this is present in Somalia too, whether it be calling dark skin Somalis "dhuxul" or calling thick hair "timo Madow," with Madow obviously holding a negative connotation, or, of course, abusing Diana. In fact, by calling AA women's usage of weaves "cultural appropriation," by that logic Somali women's usage of Diana could fall under that same category.
If it weren't for my hijab I'd get some much shit for my hair, especially due to the hairstyles I enjoy so much. I love wearing my hair in cornrows, my hooyo had braided them for me since I was a little girl View attachment 20978
On a side note, if you think that question is bad, wait til you've been asked if you shower with a hijab on

Yes, I am full Somali. My hair is not 4C, I'd say it's more 4A, but it is still very thick.Are u full Somali? Usually dark skinned Somalis have the softest hair.
