For whatever weirdness my mother in law has about my wife’s butchness, I have to give her credit for letting Jill cut her hair short even as a kid, even though she didn’t have a proper men’s cut for years

Aw, that’s good! 🙂 I’m always really happy to hear about parents that let their kids do what they want with their hair.

My family is great about a lot of things, and they’ve been very accepting, but hair is still a point of contention between me and my mother. If it were up to her I’d still have it down to my butt like I did when I was nine (she let me cut it up to almost my shoulders after that because I wanted to donate it for a wig, and you can’t say no to a fourth grader who wants to help people with cancer).
