Side bangs, also known as "emo" bangs, are popular with women (Nicole Richie) and men (Justin Bieber). And let's not forget emos. So imagine the panic when an optometrist told The Daily Telegraph that the emo hair style could cause lazy eye, or amblyopia.

"If a young emo chap has a fringe covering one eye all the time, that eye won't see a lot of detail," Andrew Hogan of Australia told the tabloid. "And if it happens from a young age, that eye can become amblyotic."
But msnbc.com ontacted Dr. Leonard Press, the New Jersey eye specialist who co-authored the clinical practice guidelines on amblyopia for the American Optometric Association, and he scoffed at the scoop, saying it's really only a problem for people younger than 7 years old.
"The story would only be true," he said, "if you had somebody young enough, and if that person never looked out of that eye -- if it was blocked 24-7. The reason it’s false is that you don’t have that constant deprivation." We're inclined to think that it's safe to get as "emo" as you want to with your hair, assuming you're over 7. What do you think?
I'm 44 yrs old; I work in a factory. Do you really think I give a crap about Emo hair?

So all blondes are dumb? Are all jocks popular? Do all guys only want to get in girls pants? Are all cheerleaders whores? Are all black people in gangs? Are all girls not good at sports? Is everyone who goes to therapy crazy? Is everyone who reads a geek? Is everyone who wears glasses smart? Are all muslims terrorist? Do all children not like vegetables? Does every kid not like milk? Does every teenager steal? Is it true that you have to be anorexic to be a model? Is everyone that is overweight lazy? Are all Asians smart? Are all blacks ghetto? Are all Americans snobs? Are all Mexicans illegal immigrates? Are all blacks criminals? Are all blacks drug dealers? Are all Jews rich? Do all teenagers not care about school?
Yeah, stereotypes exist for a reason.
Just shut your mouth.
No, not "all", but many, or no one would have come up with the stereotype to apply, in the first place. Where do you think stereotypes come from?
And like Eva, you didn't read the whole of my thread, did you?
