Go Bald for St. Baldricks Day!

[Graham]

Perhaps some of the ladies here would participate.
It sounds like a good cause.

Sorry, but this is an issue I find most abhorrent, the thought of women shaving their heads!
What genius first decided that women shaving of their beautiful hair equates to a worthy and charitable cause??

In ancient times, a woman with a shaved head was a symbol of shame, do we now call this a symbol of good?

I could not give a toss how "worthy" the cause is, I say if you want to give to a charity, FINE, GIVE, but why shame yourself in the process?

People who think such things are without understanding.

On another issue, I know that this matter relates to loss of hair as a result of cancer treatment.
More misunderstanding......
I think modern treatments for cancer are more in the league of leeches and bloodletting.
There are natural therapies available for treating cancer that do not result in the loss of hair and don't destroy the immune system. So for me at least, this places just another question mark on the (well meaning) desire to shave one's head to "support" cancer patients.
(and before anyone says 'I don't understand cancer', I've had many near relatives die of cancer).
