My ex had short hair, and it suited her and was easy to maintain. None of the elders said anything that I'm aware of, but a few times she got yelled at out in service? by householders? (always male) who said it was unscriptural for a woman to have short hair.

Looks like McDonalds advertising hasn't changed much in the last 2,000 years. They still exagerate the size of the burger.

Enjoy the drugs, Satanus. Hope you're well soon.

men must have short hair in the org.. does this mean that sisters can have their hair as long as they want?.

Nice hair, but I'd hate to be the guy who unclogs the drain in her shower.

i heard recently that jw men are not allowed to have beards - is this correct and what about ct russell?

Hair above the lip and you're a good dubbie.

Depends on the congregation. I was harassed for years because I had a moustache.

Actually, we had a talk one time in Willits where the Brother "G" broke up the amount of the hall payment, the utilities and expences that we were expected to pay for the CO, and the 'value' of the literature being consumed, and decided that if each person in attendance contributed exactly $15.00 per month, everything would be covered.

They did that in my congregation too, and it was announced that each person had been "assessed" a certain amount. I was extremely offended and angry, and it was at that moment that I resolved to never give them a cent.
