from Halle Berry biography:
"A native of Cleveland, OH, where she was born to an African-American father and white mother on August 14, 1968, Berry was raised by her mother, a psychiatric nurse, following her parents' divorce."
At a big awards show held in the last year or two, she chose to highlight only her black heritage (to the exclusion of her white half), even though her black father was reported to have walked out on the family, leaving her white mother to raise her alone. She didn't even mention her mother. Ingrate. And she can't drive either.
She still looks hot.
Most women spend far too much time, and allocate far too much value to their hair. They do it only for other women, because most men don't give a rats ass about women's hair - unless it's one of those whacko-liberal Haircuts by Hatchet.

She didn't even mention her mother. Ingrate. Since it was her MOTHER who brought her in front of a mirror as a child and explained to her that she would be seen as a black woman by society and thus she should identify as black, I hardly think she was offended by her speech. Black/white biracials were largely rejected by their white relatives up until 20-25 years ago, and they were largely accepted by blacks.

*** You are correct. Most men prefer long hair, even if it is extensions or whatever. Women across the board fuss about their hair. I had my hair shaved off once. It looked good for one week. Men love long,luxurious hair. I've yet to meet a man who loved short, nasty butchy lesbo hair cuts. Tastefully done, small cultivated dreadlocks look great. I've seen women with locks down to their feet.
