In fact I think personally she looks much better with shorted hair. Not that I dont like longer hair - yes but definitely not long hair on guys. I think that is yucky.

But I'm glad about that tax, because I generally prefer men with short hair. ;)Devil Moodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16083722657651175729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36418670.post-67949035772408955052007-05-16T19:07:00.000+05:302007-05-16T19:07:00.000+05:30When I would go for my treatments, some of the wom...When I would go for my treatments, some of the women that were there with me were losing their hair from their treatments. It was interesting to me how they all seemed to go through the same stages. Sadness at losing their hair and then after a week or two, their was almost a joy to it. They would talk about the freedom of having no hair, wonder what it would look like when it grew back, etc. It was as if losing their hair took away some of their fears of their cancers and other illnesses. Like a marker of their progress, making what was going on inside them more tangible and better able to deal with because of this significant outside sign.Raynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10654500987254845640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36418670.post-41387311003992183162007-05-16T16:26:00.000+05:302007-05-16T16:26:00.000+05:30Fair enough and compelling too.

Try to sell your point in Madras.I guess you would be surprised by the amount of stories that would come by for women with hair and women without hair blah blah.<BR/><BR/>I think at the end of it, you decide how you want to live. Just to sum it up, a decade ago in Madras, tales about women wearing Jeans and Trousers were unheard of and a taboo. Now things are different. I think with time things would change.Vik Rajagopalanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00983811333354948811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36418670.post-76332151209958274462007-05-16T14:58:00.000+05:302007-05-16T14:58:00.000+05:30Yes, even at Tirupati which is the richest temple ...Yes, even at Tirupati which is the richest temple in the world and the second richest place of worship after the vatican, there are huge number of people who cut their hair off and donate this to as a token of obeissance to God. It is supposed to be shedding your vanity. But as individuals if you lose a little bit of hair too you feel miserable. However like change itself is constant, hair too will go one day whether we like it or not. The only solution I guess is wigs beyond a certain point or just shave it off.
