Hair Acceptance :
It was casual Friday at the office. While I wore my usual
shorts and Hawaiian style shirt, the very attractive young
black woman who works with me wore a sleeveless dress.
We work together every day, so she knows some of my quirks
and said she hoped I wouldn’t be too distracted by her attire.
Sleeveless dresses on women aren’t distracting, but when the
woman sports a nice bush of hair in her armpits, that gets my attention.
Unfortunately, in America it gets most peoples’ attention, but not
in the admiring way that I see it. There is such great social pressure
for women to shave their armpits in this country that seeing a woman
as nature intended can get reactions of snickers, whispers or
outright derision.
