Would you dismiss the wise words of a sage simply because their face was scarred or otherwise disfigured? I think not, and yet you engage in just this type of prejudice when you ignore my opinions on Vaccines simple because my profile picture is a Busty Minion.

Frédé (Frédérique Baulé, 1914 – 1976) was called the “Amazon of Parisian Nights” and “Queen of Paris Lesbians”.
Twenty-two-year-old Frédé was working in the famous underground cabaret, Le Monocle, in Montparnasse. Marlene Dietrich, at the time the best-known and best-paid actress in the world, falls for deeply shy Frédé. In 1936 they embark on a relationship which witnesses say looked totally unbalanced, but it continues for more than 20 years, as evidenced by their correspondence.
Soon after meeting, Marlene set Frédé up in business with a nightclub called La Silhouette (after Marlene’s favourite bar in Berlin). It became known as Chez Frédé and catered to lesbians and cross-dressing women, but also to celebrities.
Errol Flynn describes Frédé in his autobiography:
“She dressed better than any man I had ever seen. … her overall effect that of a sophisticated English schoolboy. Her man’s haircut looked better on her than on any man.”
La Silhouette did so well that in the late 1940s Frédé moved to a larger place, Carroll’s.
Frédé had a number of passionate relationships, and then she met American Marilyn Leff (Miki), seen above. In the 60s the trend of discotheques killed the cabaret, and the deeply loving marriage of Frédé and Miki killed the customers’ fantasy of seducing the mythical butch. Frédé and Miki swore fidelity and stayed together till the end. Frédé was diagnosed with leukaemia and moved with Miki to an old barn in Mareil-le-Guyon where she kept busy painting and planning her next club. She passed in February 1976, just before its opening.
If non black people want to damage the fuck out of their hair that’s fine, whatever, but don’t be calling the moldy ass shit you get as a result dreadlocks, dreads, or locs, because I promise you they aren’t.
Sincerely, someone who actually knows what the fuck they talking about.
Feel free to reblog if you aren’t black and against cultural appropriation
Seriously. White “dreadlocks” are literally just unwashed, matted, damaged hair. Knock it off, fellow white people jfc.
And miss me with that “but the vikings/irish had dreadlocks!!!” shit, because it’s not fucking true. Vikings and Celts were clean as fuck and commonly had intricately braided hair. Not nasty-ass matted “dreadlocks”.
i’m just a regular person on the internet with a pornography obsession so significant that it is impossible even for strangers not to notice. however, i’m normal. don’t mind the orgasming cartoon woman i have as my profile pic – it’s just her head so it is OK. let’s talk about something normal, i expect you to be able to ignore all this
students: denis diderot was an important french author who wrote the first encyclyopedia and fought for the recognition of artisanal work and the working class. He moked political and religious authority, making him a pioneer for what will become the french revolution
Diderot: *furiously writing an encycliopedia article* im gonna write a book about gay nuns AND one with talking vaginas and no one can stop me
