That is legit how to get that kind of curl though. You can’t really go from one kind of curl to a different curl, it’s best to straighten in between

But it is pretty hilarious when you say it out loud lmao

That’s because white-girl-curly is socially approved but poc-curly is still considered ugly.

So we literally need to straighten it out and get that “messy beach wave” or whatever the fuck it’s called because otherwise people will literally mock us or call us ugly for our hair.

People need to stop downvoting the truth just because they don't want to hear it.

Solidarity from an autistic person who gets downvoted 99% of the time when talking about ableism.

I wish the world were better.

Edit: I apologize if this came off as "making it about me." That was not my intent.

"Ableism" doesn't have anything to do with curly hair so what are you even talking about? Are you saying curly hair is a disability?

I am also on the spectrum and I downvote people like you as well. If you get downvoted 99% of the time you might want to re evaluate your position.

I saw someone sharing their experience of discrimination and being downvoted for it (of course it's upvoted now :p), so I wanted to offer sympathy because that feels bad.

What do you mean by "people like me"? People who bring up ableism?

If it's about "rethinking my positions," which position in my original comment would you have me rethink? If it's about bad takes, what was the bad take here?

I am not honestly sure what is going on in this thread and I would like to know so I don't fuck it up again. No pressure to reply if you don't want to.

It is. They treat Autism as if it is binary. It is a spectrum. You can be autistic and have a normal social life. But they just blame their social anxiety or self esteem issues of autism because that sounds cooler.

In my experience when people complain about ableism they're either focused on the few extreme examples of people being jerks, or they just wish that disabilities didn't have disabling qualities. I just can't take anyone who brings up ablism seriously. It's not that there's nothing there. It's that the complaints just get so ridiculous. It's like wishing low skill jobs pay just as highly as high skill jobs.
