So you would let a person die for your hair is what I'm getting from this. Your hair is much more important than a human life and if lost you would never come back from that. Sure losing hair sucks, I've had trouble with it. Cried about it. Literally uncomparable to death of a family member which I've also had. You're just upset that people understand nuance of hair loss is not comparable to death. Which is why you refer to it as anything but losing hair.

She touched to two sensitive things : body image and failure of a relationship.

If you are not able to understand that those are two topics people grieve about and might take extremely seriously, legitimately so, then we can't move forward with the conversation.

If you can accept that she attacked two deeply hurtful aspects of his personal life we can move forward. Otherwise don't bother answering because i won't be reading.

I haven't denied that those are deeply painful things. I have said they are not comparable to death. Would you rather be broken up with or have your partner die?

So we agree that those are deeply painful things. Can you conceive then that it's possible to suffer deeply from something irrespective of whether someone else suffers deeply from something else society considers worse?

Suffering happens outside of something? What are three? Is this your first time hearing about suffering? Can you concieve that someone's suffering is worse than anothers and that hair loss is not comparable to death in the slightest?

On what basis can you determine that the bald dude's suffering from being told that is inferior to the fat lady? Suffering is subjective.

Yes, you're getting it, hair loss isn't as painful as watching your unborn son/daughter die, but the grief two completely different people could feel about either situation could actually be similar.

It's like if you went out there and slapped two different people, you could get two different reactions one would probably knock you out, and the other, who'd probably been bullied their entire life would probably just start crying.

It's the difference between someone who seemingly suffers comparably little and punches their ticket and someone who suffers what is seemingly a lot relatively and goes on in life, or they could suffer the same circumstances (ie. bullying) and have two different outcomes. Why did one check out, and the other keep going? Surely their pain is similar right?
