I’m so fucking tired of the cultural approp police using the reason that “headresses should only be worn by men!!!” when they see some white girl in a hipster headdress. It must be noted also that I think wearing them is tacky and disrespectful, anyway.
BUT STILL.
When a white man says he doesn’t think women are as typically physically strong as men (true, of course) it’s horribly sexist.
But when it’s a Native tradition, it’s just fine!
Typical.

I guess understanding the concept of different cultural norms or that women wear their own regalia is too much for some folks.
or the part where the fact that it’s a Woman wearing a headdress is just part of the problem.
well, that’s one way to show what you don’t know…
