Agreed Shemsi.
And I know exactly which message board LadyDay is speaking of.

I will give my take on what I think creates so many Natural Hair Nazis that are at least men. It is very difficult for conscious brothers to find like-minded women. When the definition of "natural" gets too relaxed (no pun intended), it tends to draw women to be "natural" who are not particularly culturally aware. It becomes confusing, as it is already difficult to figure out which Afrikans you can speak honestly and openly with on issues concerning our people; let alone finding a life partner to build a family with.
I would imagine that our sisters who are Natural Hair Nazis may have a similar frustration as men do in identifying the sisters they can relate with, but that is just speculation on my part. Hotep...
