True, that.

If it comes down to putting money toward something for my kid, versus paying my stylist a not-insignificant fee to cover up white hairs springing up along my part, doing for my kid will win out every time. I'm not that vain. Nor do I hate the snow whites, truth be told. Just me.

If women just shut their mouths and put on burqas, tied themselves to the stove like Good Women Should do, no men would be bald either!!

Hah, I wonder who's causing MINE, as a woman! They're not grey, though, they're WHITE!

Apparently there is no cure for shallow, judgmental, self-righteous snottiness, though.

I see that quite a bit too, and it's sad. Why would they not want to look good for their man (and vice versa)? You've got give each other something to look forward to coming home to.

Yeah. It happens but hey that is how it goes. Most of the men I deal with sound pretty much the same way. They have reached a point in their lives where they just do not care anymore. I call it the married man syndrome although I do not buy into the whole idea that marriage itself is what causes people to simply not care anymore and let themselves go and get all out of shape and neglect their appearance. I started a similar thread either last year or 2013.
