I really respect Taliesin for having the confidence to do whatever the fuck he wants with his hair and dress however he likes and just all around present himself how he chooses! It’s one thing to do that when you’re a teen or in your twenties, but people tend to frown on that stuff more as you get older, like you’re supposed to outgrow all that and be serious and practical all the time with your appearance. And then you’ve got Taliesin who’s in his early forties and has a mohawk dyed in the colors of the bi pride flag. And yeah he’s in entertainment and has more freedom than a lot of adults do for that kind of stuff, but it still makes me feel happy and encouraged to see adults being themselves and doing what they like with their appearance! It reminds me that you don’t have to give up your identity as you grow older!

CLIFF watches her for a
moment then goes back to cutting. They work together in total
silence for a while. CLIFF stops then and looks at HEFINA
again. She doesn’t look up. He smiles, then returns to his
pile.

Growing up i was always advised to marry a lighter skinned man so that my future kids are born “beautiful” with so called “good” hair as if being dark skinned is a life sentence and passing down your beauty is a crime. My dark skin is nothing to be ashamed of, i am beautiful as God made me and so is my son. @juhaamubayiwa
