This paper points out that in the West Black women are largely not treated with respect; it says that this is because the ideal female beauty is white women and that since African women do not look like white women they are not considered as beautiful and desirable. Individual African women respond to this lack of social acceptance and respect differently. Most people, women included, are normal human beings and respond with mild anger but otherwise take their social rejection in stride. But those women who are sensitive and or have biological predispositions to mental disorders tend to respond with the mental disorders.
