Women being moaned at for missing the hairdresser/beauty treatments.

I'll eat my hat if men start embracing women's leg and armpit hair during this crisis or any other.

In some cases by men.

The key word being "some". And often times by women too. Women are the worst critic of women.

And there have been threads on here where Mners are worried about how they are going to look in Zoom business meetings.

Usually to be followed by a chorus of "its a pandemic Give your head a wobble" by other women.
This idea that it is mostly men criticising is false from the outset.

I think it's a good thing if expectations are lowered during a pandemic.
It really is time.
I personally am tired of the fact that my own personal look I don't wear any make-up or high heels or fashionable clothes, and go to the hairdresser once a year at most; but I am clean and groomed, and pay attention to person hygiene might be a signal to others that I am unworthy of their respect.

I think a lot of people have different ideas about what to be complaining about and when to tut tut at people complaining.

Ant time anyone complains about something, whether it seems a reasonable complaint or not, there seems to be people that jump on them and say they clearly think their haircut or gardening or whatever is more important than other people's lives.

So being discombobulated by having to move away from your normal

Yeap. I never go to the hairdresser's or use makeup, but I'm so used to buying food as I need it, I cannot get my head around doing a weekly shop, let alone a fortnightly one.

And there have been threads on here where Mners are worried about how they are going to look in Zoom business meetings. One Mner saying she will have to cut her DHs hair because of the standards expected by the employer

So you have seen threads by women on MN expressing this and one woman making a comment which may or may not have any basis in reality. That's vastly different from your opening post.

Why cant these employers lower their expectations and give their heads a wobble because we are in a pandemic

You have no evidence whatsoever to support the claim employers are keeping to the same expectations.

The same men who would moan about women neglecting themselves and letting themselves go during non pandemic times

You cannot possibly know it's the same men

And I've seen plenty of disastrous home-clipped hair dos (or should that be 'hair don'ts' on men, plus jokes about sweat pants. So being discombobulated by having to move away from your normal, seems to affect anyone, not only women.

Ditto for loss of outside activities, whatever form they take.

I am annoyed by the column inches given to premier league men's football, so was pleased to see a few articles springing up,about the importance of grassroots sport, and how that needs to restart first.

Apparently golf is essential

No that's not true. I've seen moaning on MN that the suggestion that golf and angling will be permitted is some sort of anti- women agenda. It isn't- it's because those leisure activities are outdoors and are very easy to apply social distancing to.

I don't know where you have seen the types of comments you are referring to.

Grr out not our

Interesting point. During normal times women say they do makeup and choose certain clothes "for themselves, not others". So of course they carry on in private.

I am pretty much the same when at home as when our in public, just my hair is an annoying length now so looks awful.

I refuse to feel any shame for missing my hairdresser when I hear men agitating for the football season to restart (and I like football).
