Workplace Dress Codes, Long Hair, and Corporate Culture
In this excerpt, the forum discussion shifts to corporate culture and personal grooming when reptiliandude complains about being watched, tested, and forced to conform to a standardized corporate look that he despises. This prompts a lighthearted exchange involving LucePrima sharing GIFs and links, while ACuriousHumanBeing and BlurpleFart discuss the arbitrary nature of workplace dress codes and the growing social acceptance of long hair on men. Finally, lelekfalo and BlurpleFart touch upon societal expectations regarding natural grooming versus cultural norms, including a brief detour into the topic of circumcision.

explorer1357: Is there a particular reason you’re disclosing this now, and/or, suddenly allowed to?
reptiliandude: My “bonds” are being released.
I too am being observed and tested after being “bagged and tagged.”
I just hope that I don’t have to cut my hair.
I’ve taken quite the fancy to braiding it myself.
I haven’t the words to describe just how much I loathe that spiky-headed corporate look.
I swear to God, in really incenses me how the industry shits out these clones with all the cohesion of fresh rabbit pellets.
LucePrima: Welcome to hell, comrade
Time to button up and razor down like the rest of us douchebags
reptiliandude: Oh… https://i.imgur.com/sNfXPVW.gif

Just don’t let this happen to you
explorer1357: Sweet.
ACuriousHumanBeing: You’re making me think of corporate culture in general, and its clothing.
I remember seeing these Korean Dramas are thinking how much….style these old official costumes had. Maybe you’re right. The best you can do nowadays is having different colored ties.
Like, look at old Chinese Official Costumes. They had meaning, they had pizazz.

Eh, worse case scenario, if someone tells you to lose it complain to HR about how its some sort of sexual harassment against your gender identity or something. 😛 lol, dab on them haters.
BlurpleFart: Long hair on men is gaining workplace acceptance.
Why it ever wasn’t accepted is a mystery to me.
lelekfalo: I often wonder the same. It has long been socially preferred to cut or shave off the hair we can’t help growing. I mean we come that way… but staying that way is considered slovenly.
But then again, it’s still cool to slice off parts of babies’ penises, so… 🙄
BlurpleFart: I ended up going down the circumcision rabbit hole once. That procedure gets a hard pass from me.
