"Voltaire...Hair...I'd rather learn about... hair?" - princess diaries


Have you ever noticed how hair can define a person?
It is kind of funny how that works... someone can have black spiky hair and they are labeled as a goth.  Someone with blue hair might be looked at as strange or even a freak.  Someone with no hair might be labeled as sick or weak, like stay away from them...they might be contagious or there is something wrong with them.

My point is, why do we have to judge based on outside appearances.  I know people who are these examples and they are nothing like the stereo type we have placed them in.  Maybe that person loves the color blue or likes the chic trendiness of black spikes.  Maybe the person cant help being bald, they just want to be "normal" they dont want to catagorized as something they arent.

  1. I couldn't agree more. But I'm not going to pretend that hair (or dress or whatever) doesn't factor into my impression of someone. The important thing is, I think, to be aware of how these things affect your impression and to NOT let them.

    (I've read what I just wrote twice and it made less sense the second time I read it. I don't know.)

  2. Ah, Charlie. I understand completely. And really, what a shame it is that as humans we can't help but judge from appearances.
