Tidbits to the women-with-gray-hair debate

[Lamb]

If you have the time, here is a plethora of articles on it, some of which are (in my opinion) just full of it...

There's some really offensive stuff in some of these articles. :mad:

Honestly, if someone is going to look old--and I don't mean old as an insult, I mean old as a descriptor that is unconnected to beauty--then one will look old. And it won't have anything to do with her hair. Optical allusions only work so well-assuming they work at all.

I agree, and also, there is not one thing wrong with aging, we all do it every day. I'd rather eat nails than be 21 again, and I don't intend to look a day younger than I am. The obsession with youth is just bizarre to me.

I found the articles as offensive to women with short hair as those with long: offensive to women generally.
