Worst of Social Justice

Yeah, that has been my experience of a lot of dread wearers. Also, there are fewer than 35 million Rastafari in the world. And in Jamaica, where the sect began, slightly over 5% of the population are Rastafari. Seems not too many people believe Haile Selassi I of Ethiopia was the actual second incarnation of Jebus Spliff on Eart'. Including Haile Selassi, himself :/ .

[Ultimate Paragon]

Besides, I think the Spartans were known for wearing dreadlocks.

"Slightly over 5%" is still significant. For comparison, Jews are only about 0.25% of the U.S. population.

White people cany actually do dreadlocks without completely destroying it. White hair required it to matt together and clump, raising the hydrophobicity to water cant sluice through it. Black hair doesnt matt when dreads are forming, so they can still be cleaned

It's surprisingly insignificant because Jamaica is where the religion was founded.

[Art Vandelay]

...I didn't even know it was a religion. I thought it was just yet another trendy subculture.

If anyone needs me, I'll be reading the wikipeds.

Compared to ~2% Mormons in the United States despite the LDS church being founded in the U.S., that's not so bad.

Mormonism is specifically a Utah thing, wherein it's 62% of the population. Make of that what you will.

[Svata]

It started in upstate New York, though, didn't it?

[Art Vandelay]

So did most of the western and interior states that aren't on the coast.

[Svata]

That's stupid. You're stupid! Stop being stupid! But seriously, this is fucking dumb. What makes using this different than using condoms? How does this encourage any of that? What the fuuuuuuuck?

[Even Then]

I mean, yeah, people could potentially abuse the technology and/or use it as an excuse in a manner vaguely similar to what sophisticatedstephanie is fearing. People abuse technology, the winter is cold and snow is white.

Still, that's a particularly slippery slippery slope argument.

The "abuses" of which she speaks are just plain pants on head retarded. Last I checked, infertility is not a license to rape.

[Even Then]

Well, yeah, like I said she's sliding down a slope so slippery that it's practically a vertical wall.
