She's a 16 year old athlete
She's flipping in the air
She's sweating


And they want her to have a sleek bun...GTFOH :childplease:

Obviously the one's criticizing her have never be involved in any type of sport..When you are competing, your hair is the last of your concern..and if you WATCHING me compete, you really cant say shyt

This is what happens when 99% of a group of women are nonathletic and don't even know what the inside of a gym looks like.

i was not one of the gossipers, but people gossip about athlete's hair even on this forum. lebron has incredible talent, but that doesn't stop the jokes about his hairline :leon: do you respond "who gives a fukk" to those guys?

People making fun of Bron's hair are doing it on some playground shyt.

People talking about Gabby's hair are claiming she's not representing the race well to the world.

Not the same thing at all.

The media is fukked up for this story though. They read a few dozen or so tweets about some black girls on twitter talking about Gabby's hair and run with it, completely ignoring all the black women that have been rooting for her including female black celebrities

Black gymnast wearing her hair in a ponytail. Some black people are upset that shes not "representing" because they think her hair is busted. This is her:

And ANOTHER thing! I bet you all those bytches hating on her have hairlines that start at their ears and have bald spots and dead scalps from all that perm and weave they put in their hair. 100% of the bytches hating on her have that traction alopecia.

The type of sport she participates in requires her hair to be AWAY from her face..not everyone is on the natural bandwagon and thats ok...As long as her hair is neat, clean, and not distracting anyone, she's fine...she is still a damn child.
The spotlight should be on her accomplishments, not her ponytail...uugghh
