My wife hates my hair. There\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s no better way to put it. She wants me to grow it out and look like Mr. Darcy (the BBC Colin Firth Darcy), but she\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d settle for just a regular hair cut. She wants me to go a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153stylist\u00e2\u20ac? instead of a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153barber.\u00e2\u20ac? And she wants me to use gel\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 lots of gel.<\/p>\n
The problem is I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t want to. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m not going bald or anything. I just like my hair shaved for many reasons that are quite valid and good by my thinking but not relevant here. My usual $12 haircut is number 3 on the top and 2 on the sides and back. In case you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re unfamiliar with hair clippers, these numbers correspond to the type of spacer used when shaving the head with clippers. The only spacers that shave closer than 3 and 2 are the number 1 spacer and no spacer\u00e2\u20ac\u201dwhich really isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t a spacer, but you get the idea.<\/p>\n
If controlling my hair means so much to her, should I just let her control it? Is this a trivial enough matter? I want you to reply with a specific yes or no. Reasons for you answer are especially welcome. And please reveal if you, as a woman control your partner\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s hair, or if you as a man, let your partner control your hair. Mention other fashion related aspects (e.g., clothing) of your person that are under control by the partner. And are there any men out there who actually control some aspect of a woman\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s fashion? Are there any that want to?<\/p>\n
More significantly, what you think about one spouse having some control over the other spouse with regards to anything? Not just hair or other things to do with appearance, but anything.<\/p>\n
To make things interesting, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll even raise the stakes. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll keep a tally of the yeses and nos, and if the yeses outweigh the nos, then I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll not cut my hair for three months. And I can even put up some pictures of my new stylin’ ‘do.<\/p>\n
[Note to my wife: your vote doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t count!]<\/p>\n
P.S. My time\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s up, and this is my last post. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s been a lot of fun. Thanks to everyone for making comments on this or other posts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
