Hair and Nature?

[Jermyn Davidson]

Very good article.

However, I am immediately reminded of black women and african women who just don't have hair that "covers their neck and ears".

And isn't all of this contigent on the condition that "it is a shame" for a woman to have short hair?

What if it is not a shame for a woman to have short hair? Isn't it interesting to anyone else that at the first church council, the Jewish Apostles didn't include this hair discussion in their list of things the new Gentile converts must do? Is there a cultural "thing" (theirs or ours) to this discussion that we are not taking into consideration?

For example, women must be silent in church and cannot practice rulership over men-- even the most conservative churches do not adhere to "the letter" of these directives.



Some short-ish hairstyles on some women is actually very attractive and still very feminine.

Just like most (if not all) pants designed for women are distinctively feminine in style, cut, etc.
