Tired of Generic Features

I hate it when black authors be like:
“I hate all the overused features on characters! Stop doing it. I’m not with that wave.” Then proceeds to do this.

Just because you made them dark skinned, doesn’t make it any less generic. :roll_eyes:

I’m gonna be honest here. I’m not trying to star drama, so sorry if I come off as that. I HAVE visited Nigeria. And as ‘off’ as it sounds, most of the women I saw had this kind of hair. Now, this is just in NIGERIA. The kinky, natural hair that people say all-or most black people have is true, and false at the same time? What I mean is, if the author uses this hair, it’s not WRONG. If it’s representing someone from an African country, where majority DO have this hair. Tell me if I’m wrong, but I do know that it’s not JUST about the hair. I just wanted to throw out the fact that, yes, africans, or black people, can have what I call ‘white’ hair.

Nope, you’re half-right. Although most-fully black people get kinky, coarse, coily hair, black people CAN get straight hair, not “white” hair BC Asians also predominantly have straight hair as well.

I was trying to word that into my whole big paragraph. Like I know you didn’t say it, I just felt I had to type it. I’m not trying to put words into your mouth. It’s just something I was trying to write out, in a way so I wouldn’t be involved in some kind of drama.
