    Look at his hairline. He’s balding anyway so just gave it a try to see if he likes it. Made a PR campaign out of it, end of story

    Being mad about this instead of Dave Coulier “dating” Alanis Morisette when he was in his 30s and she was 17 is like being mad at Obama about wearing a tan suit and not all the drone bombings or mass-deportations.

    We’re bad at picking what to be pissed about.

      Well you say that, but this Stamos guy is a fucking asshole, why didn’t he simply go rogue and shave his head and shutdown whatever production he is working on while his hair grows back, like those people working on it with him can take a few months without pay

      Playing Devil’s advocate, is he autistic? A lot of autistic guys tend to date younger and find them easier to relate with. She was 17 and he was like 30? guess it depends on the law. Kinda silly that only a few months or weeks later and he’s not “a creep”.

      Has he done anything else after that?

      edit: funny how Lemmy down votes me for this, yet cheers and jerks off to Johnny Depp and similar men, who are 60 and grooming teens and banging girls in their 20s.

        You’re right, the difference being a few weeks is silly. There should be a tier system instead. Like 15-, 16-17, 18-20, 21-24. If you’re an old fart, you can only date over 25. If you’re within one of the tiers, you can date within the same tier and maintain any relationship that was started when you were previously in the same tier. Something like that, but with a little more polish.

    What did Dave think of it? None of us matter if Dave actually appreciated the (albeit minimal, noncommittal) gesture

        don’t put it on Twitter if you don’t want people seeing it and possibly talking shit. it’s not between them anymore. social media has fucked people’s brains, main character syndrome.

          Did they put it on twitter? The picture appears to show it being made by an account unrelated to them

      Well wasn’t he dating Alanis Morisette when he was 30 and she was 17

      Edit: in 92. So she was 17/18 and he was 32/33

        How’s that relevant to the bald thing?

        Not defending it, but what’s it have to do with Dave liking the gesture or not

    Ok, I kinda get it. His looks are his living, without those he has nothing. But seeing as that is the case, he might have found another way to support his friend rather than an empty, performative stunt.

      looks to me both parties are enjoying themselves in the photo, doesn’t look empty or performative at all. if Dave Coulier was cool with it, thats all that matters imo

      Isn’t shaving one’s head an “empty performative stunt”? It doesn’t provide any benefit to the cancer patient.

        I don’t think so if you’re fond of your hair. Even if it grows back, it’s a symbolic sacrifice in solidarity–a nice firm hug. A bald cap feels like a limp hug or a pat on the head.

    I see nothing wrong with doing a gesture in support of a friend.

      I think what people see as wrong with it is these sorts of gestures are usually actually shaving your hair off in support. As a way of saying you’re in this together and there to support the individual. This method comes off as disingenuous because you can just take the cap off and go back to your normal life, the other person can’t.

      Ultimately it’s between them, but if you’re going to publicize it. It comes off as shallow and an attempt at making yourself a part of someone else’s illness

    I think when you’re probably shooting (as in filming) stuff you can’t just shave your head in the middle of an ongoing project.

    Otherwise I’d agree with the sentiment he should actually shave his hair but in this specific circumstance it doesn’t feel disingenuous.

    I wish I looked as good bald as they do. I have a head as lumpy as an overripe orange.

    This reminds me of that reddit story about a mom who was pissed and went off on a hair stylist who wouldn’t shave his head for her daughter who had cancer
