There's a man in Massachusetts that feels my pain, and he's doing something about it. Peter Carlino is attempting to get permission from the town of Salem to open a new kind of barber shop. One where your hair is cut by an attractive woman, wearing the lingerie of your choice. The shop is called 'Paradise Cuts' appropriately enough.
I am fully aware of the arguments against this idea. Sure, it objectifies women. So do countless bars and clubs and saturday morning parking-lot carwashes. The fact is, women continue to participate in those activities, making them lucrative. This is no different. I wouldn't take my two year old son there for a trim, but you'd better believe that given the choice between having my hair cut by a ZZ-top reject or by an attractive woman whose outfit I get to pick when I make the appointment, there's really not much of a decision to be made. This is, in layman's terms, a 'no-brainer.'
