    Odor has nothing to do with race-more so to do with what the person is eating. If you notice when you take an antibiotic like amoxicillin for an Ear infection, when you urinate it smells like the amoxicillin. The vaginal secretions from a woman are in the same way connected to what she ingests. Perhaps the woman you were with ate a diet high in fat content, which would contribute to an awkward or strong odor from the woman.

    Here is a link that may help, and some text from that link: http://www.geocities.com/staynscripture/ A common misconception is that Locks and dreadlocks are the same. Fact: Dreadlocks relate specifically to Rastafarianism; locks are of African origin and are global. Africans have been wearing locks since anqituity. The Maasai of Tanzaina are a perfect example of this tradition. The gift that Rastafarians have given to African Americans is that they maintained an important aspect of our ancient culture, locked hair. Without them, it may have been lost. The only distinction to be made between locks and dreadlocks is purely on a physical level. The differences are superficial at best. Dreadlocks are organic and African Locks are cultivated. What they have in common is that both are natural (chemical free), Africentric, and are usually rooted in a sense of consciousness and cultural pride. The Rastafarians, who believe in Africentricity and naturalness (which are one and the same), believe in leaving the hair in its natural state and not manipulating it. The Caribbean environment of hot sun, sea saltwater and fresh air (which is similar to Africa facilitated the hairlocking [dreading] process. African Americans who wear lock have the same natural affinity, but because of their unique cultural history and environment, prefer to wear it cultivated. They manicure and cultivate their locks. These come from the African tradition of ornamenting and grooming both of which have always been an important aspect of African culture. African men and women alike have historically spent a great deal of time grooming each other's hair. This was a way to be intimate and to share time and positive energy by communicating and beautifying each other.
