No. And, it shouldn't upset other nappy-headed black folks either.

ok i hear what you're sayin sista ...but to me when i look at a sistas hair that's from about maybe 2" i guess and longer...i see small waves,and shorter i see curls...small curls,i'm not sayin our hair is naturally straight,and i know nappy doesn't mean grooming.but i guess i tooked it as the white man tryin to degrade our hair,as though their hair's better than our...i don't have any problem with our hair being called nappy...if it came from my people. trust me...i love my hair,and wouldn't want hair that dogs seem to have.though sometimes i do straighten it,(not relax)because fros just don't look good on me!...lol
