    I wonder why boys in a Catholic school can’t have long hair like a girl? It’s not like it would make them look more like a girl would it? And even if it did make them look more girlish, how would that affect anybody at the Catholic school? It’s not like Catholics are known for nefarious things…

      I take pretty much every opportunity to shit on the rosary rattler cult, but this is the first I’ve heard of this particular rule, I’m pretty sure it’s just some Catholic schools. And surely “Jesus had long hair” came up often.

        Yeah my Catholic school allowed everyone to have whatever hairstyle they wanted. Hair dye, piercings, and tattoos were also allowed. Actually, not sure about the tattoos but I definitely had friends who had them and they weren’t expelled or anything.

      They don’t want any of the girls to mistake one of the boys for Jesus and accidentally sin trying to do his will.

      “Conservatives and homophobes are actually gay” is a bad punchline. What’s the joke - that being gay is emasculating, humiliating or perverted?
