I'm going to start this piece by saying upfront that I'm neither judging YOU nor telling you how to wear your hair. This post is about my experiences with my hair and my life and hypotheses about society that grow out of that. Hypothesis means it's an unproven theory. If you're a social scientist and reading my blog for some damn reason, feel free to try to get DATA that casts light on whether or not there's anything to these ideas or if I'm just some scarred, neurotic twit who STILL has boatloads of baggage while imagining I got better. ---- Looking back on it, I came from a surprisingly enlightened, pro women's lib family. It only dawned on me well into adulthood that some of my friction and frustrations in life were rooted in me expecting to be treated like my opinions mattered and I had a right to speak my mind etc. and that this flew in the face of the expectations of most people in supposedly developed, enlightened places, like The Third World Country
