Okay, here is one little thing you can do to
make the world a better place. Don't assume that every person you meet who has
dreadlocks knows where the
pot is because many of us don't. If you're willing to believe it or not some people with deadlocks don't even
smoke pot or care about it for that matter.
Yes,
hair styles are a choice, but consider the options for a
nappy headed individual like myself:
1. Cut it off (too 'dyke')
2. Grow an afro (too 'Jackie Brown
')
3. Cornrows (too time consuming)
4. Dreadlocks
Just because someone has picked option 4 doesn't mean that they like
reggae or pot or that they own a bunch of
fimo and want to try to sell you
overpriced beads with misshapen
yin-yangs on them. Dreadlocks are one of the most
simple and
logical ways of styling
thick curly hair and are becoming more and more
popular among
woolly headed individuals. So, the likelyhood that a person who has dreadloks knows where the pot is will become lower with time making the connection between
locks and pot a invalid
stereotype. So, if you like pot or even if you have some locks yourself just
don't go there.
