That would make it a beer ice lolly!

Call it alopecia or call it baldness it is not a joke it is a medical thing or a genetic thing.

Remember when you are with someone who has hair loss and you remark on it, then it is not banter it is making cruel jokes at that person. And just because they are laughing along with you does not mean they are not crying inside

Jada is not the one crying to the media, she has accepted her medical issue and has faced it, it is others who seem intent to "speak on her behalf", as if she does not have the power to do it herself. Do you not think that the media has been desperate to get a quote from her since the event? Why do you think she has decided not to say anything? Why do you think she wants others to do what she has not?

I think Chris Rock was wrong to say what he did, or said it badly. I understand Will Smith's reaction - but I don't accept his actions.... and the post poked fun at him, not at Jada.

Sorry if it meant I was attacking your post. It is just the many times banter is used about the hair loss of a man. In a woman there is often sympathy but in a man it can often be different. And that is unfair on the person at the receiving end of so called banter.

Same goes for someone who is overweight some do not care but others do and for too many it is diet lose weight then stop diet and go back to old way of eating and putting on more weight merry go round. And sadly for more and more shoppers the only way to feed the family is to buy the very foods that will add to weight problems.
