Dumb Questions


There is nothing wrong with asking a question

But before you begin, allow me to answer some of the more common ones

My scarf does not show regression

And yes, I know I look like a nun

I have plenty of hair

I do take it off

No, this was not done on a dare

So there is no reason to scoff

My reasons are my own

I am a born US citizen

And I don't regret that my hair can't be shown

Yes, I realize it's not the easiest way to fit in

That's all I have to say

So please, go ahead, make my day, and ask away
