I highly doubt many guys on this board would want to look like a chick. Even if there were, I doubt they’d want to look like Liz Cheney. This has nothing to do with political views.

Which will be great, because means I will have a daughter and it will be impossible for me to be a misogynist. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 So if I don't want my son to have long, nasty, greasy hair because I want him to look nice, that's somehow different from Kaperknick's parents not wanting him to have dreadlocks. ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're different than dreadlocks. Also, corn rows require fastidious attention and grooming. Calling them "nasty" is literally an aesthetic judgement. Calling them "greasy" is incorrect. And considering who gets corn rows, well... 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if he privately thinks his parents are racists for disallowing corn row hair styles, the fact that he took this public with his reach as a public figure, and publicly accused his parents of being racists is a pretty bad look. What does this accomplish other than making his parents look bad? also it seems like a reach. A lot of parents probably don't allow certain hairstyles regardless of race. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite memoirs are always the ones where the chapters about their childhood are one word long: "Great!" fans feel defensive of their favorite players but the guy's public statements calling his parents racist is really poor taste, especially since they didn't do anything that bad. they disallowed a hair cut but otherwise treated him very well by all accounts. also it isn't unusual for public figures that bash their parents in a memoir to get called out same as Kapernick ithink people are recently calling out Prince Harry for it i think Ronald Reagans daughter got harshly criticized when she bashed on her mom's faults in a book. it is ungrateful and a bad look. https://www.yahoo.com/now/ronald-reagan-daughter-reflects-mistake-183808860.html "I've learned something else about truth: Not every truth has to be told to the entire world," she wrote. "People are always going to be curious about famous families, and often the stories from those families can resonate with others, give them insight into their own situations, even transcend time since fame flutters at the edges of eternity.
