Yes. 100%. There’s no other reason on earth that men could have “steam” (that must not mean what it used to mean) for you.

You want to be gross and have arm pit hair, you do you, girl. But we don’t have to fricking celebrate you for it, and it’s not bad in any way to be turned off or disgusted by it.

Idiot.

Is she saying we are racist because we don’t like arm pit hair on a woman?

It is so misogynistic to attack women for having body hair. They wouldn't do it to a man, and the level of steam they have for me is definitely because of my Blackness. It makes them mad that this big brand gave me and my armpit hair a platform.

Being oppressed is literally part of people’s brand nowadays

I had a roommate that had tons of back hair and the shower was a mess after him. We gave him plenty of shite about it.

Mad? Not at all. Rich corporations do dumb shite with money, what else is new. I'm sure promoting a women's athlete that I've never heard of is going to make sales skyrocket.
