propagranda.eerrr "health" films in middle school. It seems to me the only differences between this and that ... The school propaganda film was kept out of the public eye by simply targeting small groups at a time. If it had been shown the light of day on national TV it would have sparked discussion as well. ...And that the school film didn't single out people we knew with addresses.
Not that this mattered, it was entirely a socialist experience. They didn't have to give out addresses in the schools, kids would point at anyone who looked different during the entire movie. It was designed entirely to shame, and bring comfority.

"People who wear other's style of dress and live in other's style will become fools and that nation will come to ruin," it says.
If you take the word "other" as just anyone else but yourself, than I would think obeying anyone's rules of what haircut or clothing is acceptable for yourself applies to the state officials mandates as well. The nation will come to ruin for their blind conformity to power. Obviously, these people who change their styles to fit the styles of the state are living not their style, but another's, and so will be fools exactly like they say they will.

State radio programmes such as "Dressing in accordance with our people's emotion and taste" link clothes and appearance with the wearer's "ideological and mental state".
Tidy attire "is important in repelling the enemies' manoeuvres to infiltrate corrupt capitalist ideas and lifestyle and establishing the socialist lifestyle of the military-first era," the radio says.
If you changed the British spelling and reworked the phrasing just a tad bit, you'd think it was Bill Clinton advocating school uniforms. [only slight sarcasm]
On the original point of gender disparity, the answer is emphatically no. The women will not be targeted by the government media campaign, because people don't count in a socialist utopia. All people are just property of the state to use as the state wishes. In the case of women, socialism regards them as nothing more than breeding stock. It doesn't matter what they look like, just so that they can reproduce more property for the state. For all the spew about marxism being the only system that, "treats women fairly" that the radicalized feminists. they refuse to accept real world experience. The simple fact that they remain so blinded by ideology in spite the overwhelming evidence betrays their true motivation: anger and revenge. Sir Winston Churchill was exactly on the mark in comparing the two systems, "Capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings, but social is the equal sharing of miseries." When men are free, they are free to help women. As the feminists bring soft socialism to this country, it's becoming harder and harder for working class men to even support themselves, let alone women. Nobody benefits form socialism, least of all women.
We are not to expect to be translated from despotism to liberty in a featherbed. -- Thomas Jefferson

I have long hair, reaching down to my kidneys.
When I was at the medical examination at the army (draft's still in place in Germany!), one of the two hags 'examining' me asked me what kind of school I attend. So I answered and got yelled at, "they let you in there looking like this?".
Oh, and by the way, I had to bend over to have my backbone checked, completely naked of course (never knew the backbone reaches that far). At least the doctor who examined my balls was a man.. very odd, all that.
I never felt my male "privilege" as clearly as on that day, I can tell you that :-).
Of course, I still get called "long-haired bomb planter" every now and then, but I got used to it. What bothers me is that if a man has long hair, it has to mean someting - being gay (I'm not), being left-wing (I was but got cured in recent years) or being a Metal fan (I am, but what does it have to do with it).
The interesting thing is that the above incident was the only time ever that a woman made a dumb remark about it. It's clearly men themselves who are most active at keeping their fellow males 'in line'.
p.s. I went to the civil service instead of the army, otherwise, a haircut would have been the first I'd been given. Hair-nets were used in the 70s but by the early 80s, this was over.
If I'm not mistaken, long hair for men was quite usual here for probably thousands of years, just like skirts and frocks for men. In German, "Kleider" means dresses and at the same time it's an old-fashioned word for clothing in general.

Yes.
Alot of us Indian men wear our hair long, too, as we keep with tradition. Some of us, including myself, wear our hair (GASP) braided!
despite the fact that the general public knows that we indians wear our hair long for spiritual and traditional purposes (not to thumb our noses at society) I have been denied employment, Even job aplications,(which is illegal) because my hair is long.
Go figure.
Thundercloud.
"Hoka hey!"
