Guessing that I can now have some hair salon shave an image of my junk on the back of my head now ?
|

For those in favor of it, post some pictures of hair styles that they “need” due to their dna or whatever makes it so, that is discriminated against.
I’ve never heard of it unlike complaints of shaving due to razor bumps or whatever fucks them up. |

We're on the verge of the end of civilization and this is what our leaders think is a priority.

Some examples of hair discrimination that have happened listed here:
https://www.americanbar.org/groups/business_law/publications/blt/2020/05/hair-discrimination/
Those are all examples from schools, public schools should not be making hair style rules. Private businesses that want to discriminate against hair styles, you're not getting any sympathy from me. The thing is no one supports a system that is contrary to their interests. Having a large percentage of the population having to put up with unreasonable hair style rules does not make for a healthy society. Your desire to control others hair styles ridiculous. Why should blacks have to conform to your rules? How would you like it if blacks were in the majority and made up rules that you had to have dreadlocks or corn rows? Not so reasonable is it now? |

Sweet! I can finally wear corn rows and not being looked at funny or be denied a job!

This whole post has aids.
I don’t put much faith in arguments based on the premise of you can’t have an opinion on X until you’ve done Y. Concerning the below quote... Attached File Quoted: I seriously doubt there's anyone here that has shared a bed with a black woman. Snip... View Quote |

View Quote Schools have rules. Those rules include how to dress and present oneself. It's meant to A) not allow a student to distract others and B) teach them an important lesson for their future as an employable adult. Girls were sent home from my school for wearing shorts or skirts that were too short or shirts that were too revealing. Boys were sent home for having ripped jeans. Boys could not grow facial hair or have hair that was too long. The principal made boys shave their face, at school. Newsflash: when you're in school or at work, you don't get to do whatever the fuck you want or you risk being punished. It only becomes "discrimination" when a protected class enters the picture and whines about it. The excuses presented here about black women having to style their hair a certain way because they don't have a choice are bullshit. I've worked with plenty of black women who were able to look professional and some who looked ridiculous by choice, including nails so long they had trouble using a keyboard and clothes so tight they had to be talked to by HR. Businesses have appearance policies for a good reason and crying "discrimination" because you can't comply is just the newest snowflake reaction because it works... right up until the company just stops hiring certain people because they know the inevitable drama that will transpire. |

Quoted: This is true. The Republican Senate response should be to remove all the pork. Leave only the discrimination part. Pass it and send back to the house. If any democrat votes against it say "we passed the anti discrimination act for you but the democrats won't sign on unless they can throw unrelated bullshit in the bill. It appears they don't give a shit about discrimination of black people they just want to use you to line their pockets " Instead we get replies like this thread from Republicans most likely. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: They don't give a single wet fart about people's hair FFS, follow the pork. Instead we get replies like this thread from Republicans most likely. I'd argue the discrimination portion is pork in a way too One can say that it is the right thing or not, but it seems likely that companies, always wanting to avoid lawsuits and bad press, will be more hesitant to make anything that could be construed as adverse employment decisions I find it unlikely that a democrat will change their vote because something got trimmed out, for exactly the reason above. Additionally, the reversal play, "well actually dems are racist", never works. It's the football lucy yanks, every time |

Does this mean that restaurants cannot discriminate against white people with dreadlocks when hiring food prep employees? I refuse to let those folks make my food. You have to be a seriously dirty MFer to develop dreads when you're not black.

The smell of braided hair, unwashed for months is sickatating.

Quoted: I seriously doubt there's anyone here that has shared a bed with a black woman. The bullshit they deal with is definitely worth addressing. The very nature of their hair means that typically white styles aren't feasible without literally burning their scalp with chemicals, or spending ridiculous money to have poor Indian people's hair woven onto their heads. My ex got her masters, started a job, and was dragged into her boss' office to talk about her hair. Nothing crazy like a fro, and was professional looking twists with a similar profile to an up-do of straight hair, but her boss tried to demand that she straightened her hair to make it less "ethnic". HR put her in her fucking place real quick. If you haven't at the very least seen Chris Rock's documentary 'Good Hair', your opinion here is invalid. View Quote That's where your wrong kido |

Yes, all so eloquent. Sorry, that’s not enough. Like I said, they’re not getting any sympathy from me. If the hair style interferes with actual schooling or work that’s different. If the finger nails interfere with actual schooling or work that’s different. I had a mustache in high school. Big deal. No one cared about it. Black kids had big afros, others had short hair. Big deal. No one cared. Perpetuating the status quo is not a valid reason for a law. |

I read the proposed legislation and it only protects essentially black people to style their hair pretty much ANY way they want. If a white person has the EXACT same hair style they are not protected under the proposed law since lets say dreadlocks or corn rows are not "commonly associated with the white race or national origin". Equal protection under the law and all.

Quoted: While this is hardly a priority right now I do agree with it. Many schools have had dress code policy that is discriminatory against black people because they have different hair and different hairstyles are easier for the to manage and maintain. Imagine a kid being told you can't wear rows or something and having to have a hairstyle you don't like. How would white kids feel if they were told theyust have bowl cuts or something? Shits fucked up. Still not a priority but I do agree with it View Quote This is something for a school board to change, not congress. |

Oh thank GOD! Our politicians are ON THE JOB! I can't tell you how many nights I've had to suffocate myself to sleep with a pillow, sobbing and screaming about hair injustices.
