Bald Contempt License   (+1, -2)  [vote for, against]

Before you can be mean or rude to bald people. Before you crack jokes about or discriminate against bald people. You must first be licensed to do so. This license would be a requirement for anyone that works in a hair salon or barber shop.

Bald is beautiful. I have not heard any bald jokes in years. It's actually trendy. You sure you got a problem that needs to be solved here?

I overheard an attractive young woman a few years ago commenting that she did not like bald men because baldness is caused by not being clean.

Means of enforcement and penalty for violation?

Shaved or bald heads on males or females are sexy. Bald jokes are old news. I've not heard of anyone making humour out of baldness in at least twenty years. Of course in the colonies things may lag behind somewhat.

An example: <link to song>

"I am Locutus of Borg. Lock phasers on that vessel. I am Locutus of Borg. There are FOUR LIGHTS!"

As I like to mention to my slightly balding younger brother (after he jokes about my greying hair):

"If you HAVE hair, it can be any color you like. I like grey."

How about this: Before you are mean or rude to someone, you pause, realise that it is a shitty thing to do, and don't do it. Fishbone.

// mean or rude to someone .... it is a shitty thing to do //

But that is why you do it, shirley ?

There are two reasons for being mean and/or rude.

1. You loathe and detest the target of your abuse, and wish to make that fact abundantly clear.

2. You have great (mutual) affection and respect for target of your abuse, and wish to make that fact abundantly clear.

One should never make fun of bald people. Get some friends round and make it a social event.

// mean or rude to someone .... it is a shitty thing to do //
3. The person has done something wrong or is socially inept. Many examples here on the Halfbakery.
