That if your male child has shoulder length hair it's reasonable to expect other kids will pass comment?

[mrsfinch6]

Dropping DS5 and DS3 off at nursery this morning when the nursery manager took me aside and wanted to “discuss an incident that happened yesterday” I was a bit confused because when I had collected them both the day before everything was fine.

The “incident” was that there is a little boy at nursery with shoulder length, curly blonde hair, and DS3 has been calling him a girl.

The parent of this child went into nursery this morning to report to the staff that my DS was calling him a girl. The nursery manager wanted my assurances that I would be firm with DS at home and have “the conversation” regarding this.

AIBU to say that if you have a 4 year old male child with long blonde hair that it is realistic to expect that other children in that age group will pass comment?

DS3 is very much of the opinion that “pink is for girls, blue is for boys, girls wear dresses and boys wear trousers etc” he only likes typical boys toys, whereas DS5 is a bit less bothered, he picked a pink scooter and is partial to a unicorn, I don’t encourage or discourage either way, however I do believe in sex not gender and whilst I appreciate there are a multitude of reasons why this child has long hair, I don’t think it’s my 3 year olds issue tbh

They are very young kids and yes I have spoken to him and reiterated that we don’t tease other kids and that it’s not kind to pass comment on others appearance but honestly? Reporting it to the nursery? Talk about extreme.

That's what happens when people decide to cherry pick scripture to justify their biases 😂

🤪

I am Jewish and I think everything you’ve said is Bob on. There are many depictions of Jesus that are completely at odds with what a Jewish man in the ME would look like at the time.

Mind you there’s a significant faction now who deny Jesus was even Jewish which demonstrates the total and utter bollocks people spout when they have a platform.

I’m quite concerned about myself. I’m a 39 year old lady who has had long hair since she was 16-17 and I want to pixie cut It but seems like I shouldn’t then cuz that not what women do?

Well that's.... novel 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

You will 100% grow a penis if you cut your hair. The shorter the cut, the bigger the penis.

So long as you understand you will be responsible for the breakdown of society

But then you are a woman so you were already responsible for the breakdown of society, so there's nothing left to lose really

Unless it is a bob because they are only for women, like this lovely lady...

Now i understand why my husband has told me he likes my long hair and not to cut it 😂😂

I like the idea. Future generations of the world will learn that easterissland broke the society. I’ll be famous 😂

Yep. Being a Jew in the 21st century is interesting to say the least.

Nah, he'll be fine if you use enough lube.

Oh I REALLY wish I was brave enough to go for a pixie Bob cut I’ve a feeling my jaw is too strong to pull it off.

🤣🤣

🤣🤣🤣

I work in a nursery. In the past we have had boys with long hair, past shoulder length, tied up etc. When new other children have thought girl but have easily been corrected. We also have children who struggle with correct pronouns no matter what the other child looks like! We wouldn’t speak to a parent unless we thought it was deliberate and malicious but I can’t imagine at that age it would be?

Rushes to get the clippers to give DH a No 1 all over. 😂

Paul still says that it's shameful for a man to have long hair. He assumes his audience will see that as self-evident and uses that to build the rest of his argument on a foundation he assumes those he's talking to will agree with him on.

Jesus said he did not come to overthrow the law and this is clearly part of the old law that Paul thinks still holds true.

The verses you quote is followed by the statement that we are not to judge those outside but that doesn't mean God won't. Paul was writing mainly about church discipline in that part. He makes plenty of statements throughout his writings that the behaviour of The World is dodgy.

Yes but you were trying to justify men not being able to wear womens clothing with that Deuteronomy verse

And yet that's part of Mosaic law not the 1 Corinthians verses

And I still believe its hypocritical for you to come on a thread of people you don't know to be Christian and rebuke them for men having long hair when you don't even follow the rest of that passage consistently yourself

The verses you quote is followed by the statement that we are not to judge those outside but that doesn't mean God won't.

I mean if you want to set yourself up as God then go to it...

Paul still says that it's shameful for a man to have long hair.

Paul should keep his bloody beak out.

Oh that'll be the same Deuteronomy (23:1/2) that says if your great great great great great great great great grandparents weren't married you can't go to heaven.

And "If a man is wounded in the stones are hath his privy member cut off he shall not enter the congregation of the Lord".

That Deuteronomy? 🙄

So @EasterIssland if you’re going to do it… go for a buzz cut!

After Jesus, Paul was perhaps the most important figure in Christianity. He turned from actively trying to murder Christians, to being flogged, shipwrecked, pummelled with rocks, and imprisoned for the sake of Christianity. He was a beloved mentor to many, and his letters of encouragement and teaching to the early churches have had an enormous influence on Christianity throughout the ages.
Just one example of the incredible things he wrote:
1 Corinthians 13:4–8a
Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.

my husband nearly choked when I’ve reproduced this conversation during dinner time 😂

Maybe this long haired kid is a Nazirite.

😂😂😂

I’m a bit worried though… my wife has a close shave over 3/4 of her head!
