Bureaucrats in North Korea's Communist Party, summarizing their understanding of the way the brain works, announced in January that, henceforth, all men would be expected to wear their hair short (2 inches, maximum) in that longer hair impairs function by taking oxygen away from the nerves in the head. (Balding men would be allowed another inch for comb-overs, and hair length of women was not addressed.) [Tampa Tribune-AP, 2-2-05]

Most women look worse with short hair, let's not wish that upon them

I think this was posted before on the Current Events forum at one time, by the way. Not that anyone really cares...

This also fairly well summarizes their knowledge of how hair 'works' lol. I'm sure our bodies spend SO much resources maintaining dead tissue. For us to lose oxygen to our hair, we'd have to have an open network of capillaries in the scalp, which would be, quite literally, a bloody mess.

My hair is about 13 inches long [img]tongue.gif[/img]

and yep Groj, this was in CE hehe.

Well, they have been ripping out fingernails over there for a while, perhaps that was done for similar reasons
