Erm...yes they are...
I have naturally wavy hair - my girlfriend says I'm a woman and I have ringlets but I refuse to go straight...
EDITED for Freudian slip...
i dont think i'll go through the article but from what i read here, i'd say its gross and lame to generalise hair texture regarding race..Originally posted by purplelucrezia@Mar 14th, 2004 - 1:35 am
"I have always found it morally wrong; shouldn't you stick with what God gave you, refuse to deny your ethnic heritage by pretending to be something you're not? New York is full of curly-haired brunette Jewish girls who've reinvented themselves as poker-straight blond streaky preppies. And yet ... I catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror: this morning's greasy application of Secret Agent Flawless Finishing Crème is struggling hopelessly against my tendency to pouf up into a, well, a Jewfro."
I am really not liking that term...

Same thing in Milano... There aren't that many naturally blond Italians, yet there are a lot of (more or less successfully coloured/highlighted) "blonds".Originally posted by softgrey@Mar 13th, 2004 - 10:48 pm

Hmm...Does anyone else find this offensive?
I'm speaking as a straight-haired, redheaded Jewish girl, of course...
exactly becuase of these both articles and the criticising posts, he/she should better be lurking.. this kind of journalism may be entartaining but its clearly missleaded and misleading, a marginal of 'naiveness' is not represantative of the majority.. and FS reactions justify just thisOriginally posted by PrinceOfCats@Mar 14th, 2004 - 11:14 am

I don't...especially after what we said about Jess in another thread...
My apologies if anyone found this offensive
It's just that I thought it would raise some valid points , which it HAS succeeded in doing .
