Acerca de esta escucha
Francois Attadedji saw something in black women all over the world; in Africa, in Asia, in America, in Australia, in Europe, even in Antarctica that caught his attention. No matter where black women are on the planet, it is the same. So, he decided to do something with it, to write a book about it. He called this book: Many Reasons Why Black Women Don’t Wear Their Own Natural Nappy, Zippy, Curly, Kinky, Tiny, Short, Wavy Hairs.
He believes that it is possibly not what you think. Answers from black women themselves.
First, he wants to stretch out and make it clear that he is not against black women wearing different hair which is not their own, such as weaves, extension, braids, wigs. This book is born from his curiosity and ambition to know and discover those reasons.
Second, he has his own opinions about these reasons. He could have just written this book and told you what he believes these reasons are. Moreover, he could have put out there what his thoughts are. Whatever he believed and still believing those reasons are and write this book about them. But instead, he decided that it would be wiser and smarter not just to write about what his own points of view are on this topic. He said to himself, why not go and ask black women themselves? Why not go after the truth? Such truth can only be told and provided, he believed, by black women themselves, women who wear those wigs, extension, weaves, and braids or who just don’t like their own hair.
Finally, he decided to interview 100 black women in Indianapolis, Indiana, in the United States of America to find out the reasons why they don’t wear their own natural God-given hair.
Therefore, he got 100 answers from 100 different black women that he combined into 23 interviews in this book.

Steve Harvey can't count the number of impressive women he's met over the years - the many incredible women who can run a business, have three kids, maintain a household in tiptop shape, and chair a church group all at the same time. So when it comes to relationships, why can't these same women figure out what makes men commit? According to Steve, it's because they're asking other women for advice when they should be going directly to the source.

Suddenly finding herself 40 and single, Lori Gottlieb said the unthinkable in her March 2008 article in The Atlantic: Maybe she, and single women everywhere, needed to stop chasing the elusive Prince Charming and instead go for Mr. Good Enough. Looking at her friends' happy marriages to good enough guys who happen to be excellent husbands and fathers, Gottlieb declared it time to reevaluate what we really need in a partner. By looking at everything from culture to biology, in Marry Him, Gottlieb frankly explores the dilemma that so many women today seem to face.

Historia
Being a black woman in America means contending with old prejudices and fresh absurdities every day. Comedian Phoebe Robinson has experienced her fair share over the years: She's been unceremoniously relegated to the role of "the black friend", as if she is somehow the authority on all things racial; she's been questioned about her love of U2 and Billy Joel ("isn't that...white people music?"); she's been called "uppity" for having an opinion in the workplace; and yes, people do ask her whether they can touch her hair all. The. Time.

Michelle Obama is unlike any other First Lady in American History. From her first moments on the public stage, she has challenged traditional American notions about what it means to be beautiful, to be strong, to be fashion-conscious, to be healthy, to be First Mom, to be a caretaker and hostess, and to be partner to the most powerful man in the world. What is remarkable is that, at 52, she is just getting started.

Double standards are nothing new. Women deal with them every day. Take the common truism that women who sleep around are sluts while men are studs. Why is it that men grow distinguished and sexily gray as they age while women just get saggy and haggard? Have you ever wondered how a young woman is supposed to both virginal and provocatively enticing at the same time?

Don’t waste your time
The author just gave a list of interviews. There’s no storyline. I think this book could have been written in a better way, with more feeling behind the people. The readers voice was monotone and hard. This book was hard to listen to.
