    When I was young, my mother told me that black people dared not go into the rain with hair uncovered because the hair would not dry quickly enough to avoid becoming 'soured' (which I understood to mean developing an unpleasant odor). I have wondered about this for many years and have been too embarrassed to ask any of my black acquaintances.
