Would you not have to have a square head to remove the CORNERS of your beard? lol

Indeed. I have been told I am a "blockhead", that's why I like to keep it covered!

It was not an issue with the Black UPC brothers or the Hispanics! They just want a little tighter control with the white preachers - to balance out the women and the hair issue. I wonder why they are so fixated on HAIR of any kind? Isn't that weird or creepy to you?
It is weird.

There were some women in the UPCI church I was raised in that did not shave their legs.
That is gross and ignorant and stupid.

I preached for men years ago that preached against the women shaving their legs and armpits. One place I preached in KY - the Pastor (Independent) took his teenage daughter (who was a GREAT organist) off the organ because "she went to that UPC camp and got when them worldly UPC girls and they got her to shave her legs and under her arms and I PREACH AGAINST CUTTING HAIR!"
What a "maroon", as Bugs would say.

It is. I don't think it was a matter of "tighter" control on white men. Rather I think they realized it was a lost cause to oppose it on non whites.
Glad this anti "distinction of sexes" is going away for ALL races.

Well the ignorant part it that a minister would impose himself in such a personal and non Biblical way...
As far as hair on female legs being gross - that would be subjective and primarily a result of Western conditioning.
I have a few sisters who may not shave their legs (I really don't know, but some Mennonites/Amish don't)

Yes, I thought about that while I was posting. It's gross to me.
