Mo’Nique Sparks Another Bonnet Debate

Comedian and actress, Mo’Nique, sparked yet another online debate about bonnets and the respectability of women.

The Oscar-winning entertainer, who took to social media earlier last month to weigh in on the appropriateness of bonnets and pajamas in public, posted a photo of a Black woman at an airport in a bonnet and at-home leisure clothes.

Mo’Nique captioned the Instagram image with a message for her “babies.”

“Hey, BEAUTIFUL QUEENS. 🥰 NO SHAMING. If this is the BEST, YOU CAN DO– NO JUDGMENT. DO YOU. This was sent to me as an example of what we’re talking about that goes on in our community. However, if this is not your BEST, then do BETTER! Being that ultimately the decision, either way, is yours. I LOVE US 4REAL❤️,” she wrote.

Followers chimed in on the ongoing debate.

There were also a few followers who agreed with Mo’Nique, suggesting travel affordability and respectability as examples.

“EXACTLY!! Like I said earlier, if you have money to travel, you should have money to look appropriate NO EXCUSES!!”

“If folks would hate to be an example such as this, they should think twice before going in public like this.”

The respectability war continues and even took to Twitter.

Personally, I don’t think the photo should have been taken and posted on a large platform, but it does beg the question…If you don’t want to be used as an “example,” should you self-censor and dress “appropriately?”

What do ya’ll think?
