Hair discrimination should be designated as a form of racism

[johnofgwent]

The moment has come. 

It is now apparent to all that what little remains of my long flowing Viking locks are frizzled, straggly, thinning by the month and now far better kept at an ever shrinking crew cut. 

The main razor cut gas gone from 8 to 7 to 6 and now 5. The amount of hair is dwindling but at least coverage remains over 90% if what it used to be, but that is dwindling too. I think I shall go in search of a decent Trilby for bonfire night. I am rather taken by the summer Fedora I picked up last year to protect my head from the lockdown garden sun, but it is a little too much hat for my real liking. Maybe if I can find one like I used for my murder mystery pub nights ...

As a man who's had long hair at various times in the past, I've experienced hair discrimination. 

"Get ya hair cut, pal." . . . . (Why?)

"Why do you want to look like a girl?" . . . . (If I wanted to look like a girl I wouldn't have grown this beard, would I?)

People used to call me "bald eagle" at work and I'm wondering if it is too late to get £50,000 for my hurty feelings.

Which reminds me

? Now that is really frustrating! What does it remind you? Oh Oh have I just fallen into a trap?

Which reminds me. Firmware chips installed in set top boxes and "smart" TVs years ago rated sumo wrestlers and a certain Formula 1 commentator as porn. In the one case may be so, but Murray Walkers bald head ?? Come on

I think it only right,I demand action for baldy headed old bastards like me,the nhs should do something about the fact hair grows out of my ears but not my head.

This reminds of a workplace years ago,one of the blokes was as bald as a coot,there was a company engaged to do a photo and short film shoot on the firm I was working for.

Yon baldy was included in all the test shots and was feeling quite proud he was in demand........till he found they were taking light readings off his head. 

I am in the midst of having a hot drink and nearly splattered it all over the keyboard. Still can't stop laughing.

Does this mean we can't badger bait any more?

Does this mean that mothers of little girls with braided hair because the little one loves the style, or any other reason - perhaps neatness for something special, is going to be vilified in the streets or dragged in front of the local magistrate? Give me strength.

Hair discrimination should be designated as a form of racism, campaigners and MPs say

A group of MPs and campaigners have urged the equality watchdog to publish guidance that would designate hair discrimination as a form of racism.
A letter signed by Kim Johnson MP and backed by The Halo Collective and Glamour Magazine calls for textured hair to become a protected characteristic.
It hopes the guidance would raise awareness of hair discrimination cases in the UK and highlight it as a serious legal issue.
