As far as I'm concerned, she should absolutely be allowed to shave her head, whether due to charity, chemotherapy, or personal whim. But that is not the way of the world.<BR/><BR/>Also: Hey, don't you go lumping my tats and piercing in with <I>mullets</I>, missy. ;)Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05073607323741202543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21979818.post-61886444614313964392008-06-20T00:15:00.000-06:002008-06-20T00:15:00.000-06:00You know, if that same woman shaved her head becau...You know, if that same woman shaved her head because of chemotherapy that same employer would probably applaud her bravery.Teacher Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17996149422232892947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21979818.post-44245501508981899862008-06-19T19:37:00.000-06:002008-06-19T19:37:00.000-06:00Ah the old double standard, but it IS what it IS. ...Ah the old double standard, but it IS what it IS. Sad to say. People are nuts. In our city, a motorcyclist got in a road rage and, while at a stop light, got off his bike and stormed toward a car with a woman and child in it. SHE PULLED OUT A GUN AND SHOT HIM. and we all cheered.....until we were told that she and her son then proceded to get out of their car and kick and stomp the man......laying in the street with a bullet in him.<BR/><BR/>Need I say more????

And you'll never guess why.... BECAUSE IT WAS FOR CHARITY. Good grief. <BR/>And in other news, South Africa has reclassified asian people as "black".
