Despite telling youth by his name that What he does is risky,they still offer themselves as tools in devils chamber.
Too shameful to see a male wear ear rings,plain hair like woman or even wear female accessories. angry

So it's a sin for a black man to grow his hair and put it in a neat way, but it's okay for white Christian men to grow long hair?


I mean most men in the Bible had long hair, Jesus included.

Wait.

U must also understand the place of culture which affects the church. In the world the culture here doesn't permit responsible people to plait hairs. So if you plait hair in africa, u are a hoodlum, or a thug, In euro, u plait hair U are definitely an inmate or just came back from prison or a gangster. So plaiting of hair for a christian is wrong, when u are not dada

Special annoucement for those who are wise:
IF YOU WANT TO MAINTAIN YOUR SANITY AS A HUMAN BEING, AVOID ANY MALE THAT DRESS LIKE WOMAN
AND AVOID ANY GIRL THAT DRESS LIKE MAN.
THEY ARE ABOMINABLE BEHAVIOURS THAT MUST BE AVOIDED LIKE PLAGUES. angry

how many time bro J barb his hair

all this stuff are cultural, our cultural 'frown' against male plaiting their hair hence we smuggle it into religion

Which culture? Barbing of hair is for slaves. From the time of old black men keep hair and made their hairs. The slave masters were the ones that invented moro moro for black slaves.

Shaving bald has always been a sign of humiliation, mourning or spiritual activity of some sort.

It doesn't matter how you try to paint it, what is abnormal remains abnormal.

In the olding days, only the Songo and other idol Worshippers plait their hair in this part of the world.

The fact that someone who is supposed to know better chose to do the wrong thing, that does not make his or her action right.

Men of old had long hairs which could've been locked one way or another.
I think everything has to do with moderation and decency.
There's a kind of plaited hair that will still make a man look responsible.
Then there is the kind of hair that will make the most responsible man look like the devil himself...

Long hair is not the same as plaiting of hair
White make their hair. African hair style are different from European. But the Europeans are right to make theirs but a sin for black man.

Slavery don't just include chain, its also a state of mind.

Black man has been making their hair before white introduce baldness to their slaves. And many had chosen to emulate mental slavery as a new culture.

Why will a man even want to plait (braid) his hair?

Let's leave Christianity out of it first, can anybody please tell my why men suddenly started braiding their hair?

This is a thing previously exclusive to women and certain men for strictly ritual purposes and positions in African culture.

In Ancient Yorubaland, not every man was free to braid his hair. Only priests and devotees of Sango did (and still do) it. It was taboo for just any dude to do it even then, before we had Christianity.

Okay, why not ask if it's all right for a "genuine Christian man" to wear a dress, or lipstick?

No "genuine Christian" will even consider such nonsense, to say even less of asking about it.
