@anahitaamour I'm sorry. The way I worded that did sound like a website. #melaninfriendly is just a hashtag to connect providers with clients of color.
@bookishbrielle Ah yes, I understand that :) Ok thanks for clearing it up. It's funny I just assumed race didn't matter in this biz, my only criteria is respect and passing screening. The first time I saw
@anahitaamour I agree. I started the hashtag after speaking with a gentleman of color who explained to me that the aftermath of #FOSTA made it more difficult for him to find providers who see clients of color. Just trying to make this hashtag catch on so people can find each other more easily.
@bookishbrielle I once had a prospective client ask me over the phone, "I'm Jamaican, is that ok?" And I was like, "Of course!" It truly shocked me that it would be an issue. But I guess I live on the progressive westside of Los Angeles...
Just putting it out there, I'm #melaninfriendly -- and that means Southeast Asia is too -- I've had wonderful gentlemanly clients from Pakistan and India. All #gentleman welcome!
@anahitaamour Yes, #melaninfriendly is inclusive of everyone.
@bookishbrielle Is Melanin Friendly a website? How is it a place to connect people? What's the URL?
