NOT YOUR HAIR, NOT YOUR PROBLEM. Now, if her hair gains sentience and starts mouthing off, then we'll talk.<br /><br />You are absolutely right that women are held to stricter beauty standards. And what's more, if you perform them too well, then people thing you are an airheaded lightweight who only cares about clothes and fashion.

It's possible that I'm just extra-sensitive to criticisms of women, because, well, I am one :)Gray Skieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16802231263059362166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2523003352431215957.post-18527331524805669112012-11-21T19:17:12.725-08:002012-11-21T19:17:12.725-08:00I think some of the difference is that there are m...I think some of the difference is that there are more ways for women to go wrong, but when men go wrong they are just as criticized. Think about Blagojevitch's hair, or John Edward's primping, or the brightly colored parka that Cheney wore to a solemn occasion (a V-E day celebration?). I've even seen men criticized for wearing a striped tie because it didn't read well on camera. <br /><br />In Hillary's case, another piece of the story is that there are a *lot* of people who just don't like her, and will jump on any opportunity criticize.

And it's even worse in high-powered jobs. I love Hilary and when I saw this post in my reader I was confused as to why this is even a thing. Still am, actually, except for the fact that I know women are judged differently than men.
