WIBTAH If i refuse to cut my hair for my sisters wedding? Alright here goes. For reference, I am a 24y.o. straight male, my sister is 26. Let's start with some background. For the past 5 years or so, I have started growing my hair out. In my biased opinion, I have amazing thick, curly hair. In public, I often receive random compliments on my hair. People who know me know how much I love my long hair. If given a chance, I will usually talk about it. Everyone has their favorite thing about their appearance, and my curls are my favorite. Now, a few years back, I made the decision to donate my curls. So I chopped 9 inches off, and began to grow out my hair again. After about 2 years, I made a second donation. I rather enjoy doing this. I get to help people, and indulge my ego at the same time. Win-win. My family is somewhat conservative (politically, but mostly just about life), and as such, my parents have never liked my hair long, as it looks 'unprofessional'. But I am an adult, so they just make side comments about how I need a haircut. Nothing to hurt our relationship over. My sister is the only family member who outright supports my hair choices. Since I didnt grow up with long hair, she is usually where I go for advice on issues with the curly struggle (and r/curlyhair of course). Now, for the dilemma. My sister is getting married in a few months. She has asked me to cut my hair before the wedding so that it looks more 'appropriate'. I get along great with her fiance, but he has a more conservative view on life, like my parents, so she has developed that a bit more herself. I assume that it part of the thinking behind her request. As of now, it has been ~9 months since my last haircut, and it usually takes about 2ish years to get the length needed for donation. If the wedding fell around that 2 year mark, I would have no problem making the cut and donation and satisfying her for the wedding photos. BUT... thats not the case. I have tried telling my sister no light heartedly, but she seems firm that since its her wedding, its her call on whether or not I cut my hair. It even came up once with my mom on a phone call, and my mother is 100% for the haircut. I dont really want to because I have finally hit a length I can actually do stuff with, and I dont want to lose the 9mo of growth Ive gotten since my last cut. Yes, I am in the wedding party as a groomsmen, and I think this is the biggest issue for my sister. All of her wedding photos with me will have my long hair, and she would prefer it to be short for her eternal memories. TLDR: AITA for not cutting my hair for my sisters wedding when my entire family supports the cut? Edit: Just fyi, my sister is not (yet) close to what I would call a Bridezilla. This whole debate has been cordial, and we get along pretty well as a family. Im just looking for an outside opinion on the situation, not insults to my sister. Love ya reddit Edit 2: Here is a quick pic of my hair today, its a little frizzy because we had humidity roll in today and I didnt do any post-shower products

I’m just tired of women being forced to play games in the vain hope of losing a man’s unwanted interest. Being direct and standing up for oneself shouldn’t be a last resort especially since there are nice and gentle ways to turn people down.

On the one hand you should not have to cut your hair for a wedding, but on the other hand his hair looks like trash and he should cut it just like in general

If you've decided as a personal lifestyle choice you want your butthole to be ugly that's fair enough but really just sounds like a bunch of folks here got low rear end esteem

AITA for driving under the speed limit in the left lane?quote:My typical driving speed is between the speed limit and 5 under. Sometimes there are people in the right lane driving slower than I am, typically semi trucks going up hill. When I encounter these vehicles, I pass them at the speed limit. Sometimes this takes a while if there is a long line of slow vehicles. I know sometimes this pisses people off who want to go 10+ over. They tailgate me and act agitated, but I don't think I'm doing anything wrong. I'm using the passing lane for exactly that, passing, and I get back in the right lane as soon as I pass the leading slow vehicle.

My [44f] daughter [16f] still sits on her father's [47m] lap. I don't think it's appropriate but he thinks it's totally fine. I disagree and don't know if I'm right or not.quote:Sometimes he's like in his study or on the couch and she comes and sits on his lap and they generally talk for a few minutes and then she leaves. I think she does it mainly when she wants to talk about something in particular with him, but a few days ago they were in the study reading something together.

I was expecting some massive Weird-Al style long curly hair, instead it's just a dude with an already fairly short but kinda bad haircut. Is their family military or something and anything over a few 3cm is viewed as long hippie hair??

Being direct and standing up for oneself shouldn’t be a last resort especially since there are nice and gentle ways to turn people down. If he were straightforward about his approach, I would definitely recommend she should be upfront and clear, but nice, about declining. The problem is his plausible deniability plus his greater social standing, so when he's sneaky and she's direct, she's at risk. I don't know of a way that she can be direct and he'll still consider her nice, or even not an enemy.

AITA for getting really close behind someone driving slow in the fast lane?quote:This is one of my biggest pet peeves when I’m driving. To the point where it legitimately pisses me off. If there’s no one in the slow lane I’ll just pass them and let it be, but when two people are driving side by side it drives me absolutely insane! This guy should go fight the speed limit dude in my last post

Smirking_Serpent posted:This girl has a mason jar full of CHICKEN BONES on her night stand. I'm not making this up. Every time her family eats a rotisserie chicken, she picks out the bones she "likes" and puts them in the jar. either the poster made up this detail for colour or the parents have weird standards, a jar full of chicken bones like that would stink outrageously at the best and attract maggots at the worst, chicken bones from roast chicken carcasses aren't nice and clean, like when you see some people's animal bone collections, the process of cleaning bones to collect is quite involved - they'd be full of fat all the way through from the cooking process even if they looked as if they'd been picked completely bare on the outside and quickly start to rot horribly
