I hope someone will make a study about a possible correlation of hair styles and borderline personality disorder. Coincidentally, the only girl who ever sexually harassed me also had blue hair and BPD.

Happened in a psych ward, so escalating that issue was fortunately very easy and handled professionally.


> The context it added was evidence of bias and increased likelihood the allegations are true.

The context it added was the accuser's social presentation and personality.

And frankly, the act of making a false accusation is both weird and malicious, in and of itself.


Someone with blue hair is more likely to seek attention.


But calling them out as a "weirdo" is not a good look, to be honest. Such a statement carries context as well.


Sounds to me like someone has had a lot of different hair colors.

Anecdotes aren't data but when it comes to weird people, and non-natural hair colors, I've seen a lot of overlap. Practically 1-to-1, save for a few of the e-girl, OF demographic doing it to make money via cosplay and the like.


I've never dyed my hair but I do think it's noteworthy when someone is using biased language when reporting their side of a story. Calling anyone a "weirdo" is a good signal for how you might treat someone.
