> (and probably black men) have had to develop some coping mechanism

My "coping mechanism" for the time before I just shaved it too short to matter was to simply say, "OK, go ahead." It's not a big deal and I don't have a problem with a natural curiosity.

[edit] Asking is fine, "demanding" I would have a serious problem with.
