How come everyone is talking about Will Smith

Hitting Chris Rock yet no one is talking about Chris Rock making fun of someone’s illness?

If I was losing or had lost my hair due to alopoecia or cancer, and someone referred to me as GI Joe, I wouldn’t be offended. It would be the least of my concerns tbh

@Ghostinthemachine I agree. Also, the movie was G.I. Jane. And it starred Demi Moore who was labeled one of the sexiest women in Hollywood at the time even with her shaved head. Comparing Jada Smith to Demi Moore was a compliment not an insult.

@Ghostinthemachine I have noted that females of the human species tend to be extraordinarily concerned about their hair, and human society in general frowns upon women who do not have hair.

@Ghostinthemachine

I tend to agree with this view. If I were to lose hair due to alopecia or cancer, I would very likely laugh it off as it would take my mind off my troubles and smile. At least for a moment. The problem is that we kinda expect other people to react the same, but often don't.

@CorvusBlackthorne I find females of the eagle species less concerned about baldness 🦅
