Destiny has no black hair styles

Where is my buzz cut or hell at least a fade, it's clear Bungie didn't have black people in mind when making hair styles. Edit 1: people are defending obvious neglect and racism. Edit 2: I hope Bungie see this and adds more black hair styles.

    Please tell me you're not serious. What a f*ckin joke. First of all, there are obviously multiple so-called "black," albeit distastefully designed, hairstyles in Destiny character customization. Secondly, anyone of any "race" could make a subjective complaint that their interpretation of a culturally, diaphorically or aesthetically "appropriate" customization was lacking representation on an ethnic basis. This is an open opportunity for complaint in any limited system. Furthermore, to attempt the most stereotypical customizations possible for the given limit of options would also be grounds for a complaint that each attribute is "racist" on the basis of being overtly stereotypical. Lose/Lose. Last of all, you're bringing a very narrow minded notion of race inequality into a game that's entirely fictitious. Two of the three "races" do not exist. The timeline of the story is in the unspecifiably "distant future." Making any understanding you have of so-called "black hairstyles" irrelevant to the time, setting and even the genealogy of the human characters in the story. Many people who play this game are mixed ethnicity and by your logic they would have reason to be offended that there are too many "strictly black" or "strictly white" characteristics, while no mixed ethnicities were being represented. This is 2014. You're given a unique opportunity with the current state of human civilization to make a choice; either seek to find a basis for ethnic division or seek to ignore basis for ethnic division. We're only as divided as we choose to be, individually. You see racism where I see a game and a bunch of purely fictional characters where humanity is united against a common enemy... how much more starkly can ethnic unification and active equality be represented in an fictional universe? You're being ignorant and need take an introspective look at your own paradigm. Perhaps nothing will be good enough to satisfy your need for validation as a person of whatever color you may be, until you stop and realize there is no such thing as validation. You're human. I'm human. Who cares what Bungie allows us to look like in a game.
