TL:DR?

I understand the shoplifting rule; they want their employees to not risk unnecessary harm for stuff that can be easily replaced. However, this case is very different. Who knows what might have happend to the child had the employees not intervened. In addition, they followed police instructions to the letter. Home Depot should strive to define these policies so employees aren't punished for things like this.

It doesn't matter.

He's not your guy, friend!

@guest_ of course, people are allowed to like what they like. But I got bullied for it, and that shouldn't happen.

@shepard530 Exactly. We need to look at gender with more fluidity instead of wanting to sort our children in categories, be it transgender or cis-gender.

Yes, let us not forget female animals have more titties than humans do. Cats have six.

Why do you assume that the performance of the character would have been better if a white person had played her? And why did the picture go viral, you reckon?

I wonder what oil might be best though. I think some of the smell from olive oil with definitely carry over. And coconut oil can be expensive :/

Looks quite different, doesn't it? I wonder why the internet focuses on the picture posted above.

Perhaps she could look like one type of sex-worker, but that does not take away from the fact that making the association based on her skin-color/gender is questionable. Neither her skin-color, nor her costume will prevent this actress from giving her absolute best to bring this character to life. In the end her acting is what matters most. It's merely unfortunate that fans will immediately equate her darker skin to ugliness. Here's another picture of the same actress dressed for the same part: https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/q4rjgkMCiFUEs7H4vLyr9HGX5t4=/0x0:1125x859/1200x800/filters:focal(275x148:455x328)/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/60590225/A0222CF4_7C59_4384_AC37_709E874EFE18.0.jpeg

@rosalinas You could also paint a black person orange. Apparently black women do not fall under the category of 'anyone'. To me, it appears you think diversity is not a positive thing. Perhaps you should wonder why. Moreover, I fail to see how the dress and fur-coat she is wearing equate to her looking like a sex-worker. For futher reference here a few pictures of people that are sex-workers:

Complicated issue. My sister doesn't wash her hair, and she ofter uses lavender seeds to give her hair a nice fragrance (she just pulls them right of the plant). But if you're looking for a more durable solution, you could try scented herb oil (lavender oil, peppermint oil, etc.). Although those might be expensive. I suppose it might be possible to make your own by using cheaper materials such as dried herbs and put them in scentless oil, or better yet water as to not affect the natural oils of your hair. Perhaps you could try boiling lavender seeds, basil leaves (I like the smell, but perhaps not everyone) and rinse when the water has cooled? I am from a colder area however, so someone might have a better solution.
