It’s interesting that in the military that is largely flipped. There’s pages of rules for what facial hair is allowed, how long it can be, how far past the corner of the mouth it can be, the length of both individual hairs as well as bulk and where hair can be, one specific uniform for each occasion, nail length (kept short) with no color, and all manner of other things.
On the women’s side, they get a wide variety of hairstyles (including any and all that men have), longer nails allowed, multiple shirt, pant/skirt, and shoe options for formal wear, and the rules are generally less rigidly followed.
The amount of men butthurt by the difference in standards is hilarious. It’s like “oh, first time?” I guarantee they didn’t make a fuss when their high school didn’t allow spaghetti straps.
Although I have to say it doesn’t make sense there either. Either short hair is necessary, than everybody should have it. Or it isn’t. Gendered hair styles are stupid.
Okay but when in uniform women must have their hair slicked back and pulled up as though they have no hair at all. Same as men not being allowed to have big hair.

But then men should also be allowed to have long hair and pull it up.
True. Sounds like it’s an old fashioned concept from the 1950s when civilized obedient well-mannered men were all expected to have short hair.
