O woman, father says natural is beautifulso why do you redden your cheeks and blacken your eyes? Why do you remove the hair on your legsand draw them into your brows? Why do you hold your breathlest your stomach showand hold your fartlest they knowthat you’re a human? O woman, father says natural is beautifulso why do you straighten your hairto curl it nextand pretend to orgasm so they think you enjoyed the sex? Why do you dumb yourself downand push your breasts up? Why do you smile when you’re told toand love when you don’t want to? When? When will you stop, woman? Father says natural is beautifulbut that is doubtfulfor what does father knowhe’s only a fellow. Kamand Kojouri
About This Quote

This is a poem by Bob Marley, who was a great artist and father, and he talks about the differences between natural and unnatural beauty. Where has this come from? The woman whose hair is long and straight and healthy and she likes to wear it that way and she likes to take care of her body. She likes to wear clothes that make her look good when she goes out in public when she’s with people who love her. She doesn’t like to wear tight clothes or make-up or jewelry or whatnot.

She’s comfortable in her own skin, and she doesn’t do unnatural things to herself to try and look beautiful. Where has this come from? All these unnatural things we do to ourselves, we do to our bodies, we do in order for others to like us. We do things that our fathers don’t like.
