Husband Is Against Me Shaving My Head To Raise Funds For Child Cancer Research?


I want to shave my head to raise funds for cancer research in children. It breaks my heart to hear about children with cancer, and it makes me think about how my life would come crashing down around me if my own 18 month old daughter had cancer. I did research on this, and decided that I want to do this. It is only hair, it will grow back, and I would feel so proud to be throwing my vanity out the window to do a good thing. I told my husband about this earlier, and he got really angry. He said “He would never do it himself because he thinks its a stupid thing to do, and I wouldn’t raise a lot of money and it would not accomplish anything so it is a stupid idea” He also said that he’s not going to lie, my hair is one of the most beautiful things about me and he would be extremely disappointed to have me not have my hair for a while, and be not very attractive because of it. Last but not least, he told me that if “I think about this for a week and still want to do it, he would support me” but he said it in the nastiest and most non supportive, and frankly the meanest way he could, to let me know of his disgust for the idea. Vanity is apparently a bigger deal to him than I thought, and to be honest I am feeling disgusted with him because of this. Should I be? What are your thoughts?
It would raise money because I would be affiliated with an organization that does this – I would set up the time and place to shave, and leading up to the event, I would ask for donations from friends and family. I would make a website for it, and spread the word on facebook, and have friends tell friends and so on.
Also – my question is not whether or not you people personally think I should shave my head or not. My question is do you think it is wrong of my husband to be acting/feeling this way with his lack of support.

Does Victoria’s Secret Use Vanity Sizing?


For some reason I tend to think that Victoria’s secret lures their customers in through vanity sizing making women believe that their bra size is larger than it actually is.
I don’t shop there because I believe that its not worth paying $40 for a bra, but i decided to get measured for the hell of it.
Turns out the lady tells me that I am somewhere between a 32b and 32c, and that I can wear both depending on the bra.
Looking down at my chest, I don’t even look like a b cup! Nevertheless a C!
Personally, I think I look like a full A or very small B but most definitely not a C.
Is this some type of evil marketing ploy to get us to buy their $50 bras?
