PRIMMY'S CORNER (Me and my bald head)

Yesterday was a fun day for me, I went out to do what I love to do best (bridal makeover) and I saw two ladies talking and pointing at me, I asked one of them what the problem was and to my surprise she said the other lady wanted to know if I was gay, I couldn't believe it I had to find out what gave her that impression about me and she said my hair style, seriously I never knew being bald is a symbol for being gay, I almost died of laughter.

I shaved my hair a couple of months  back not because I wanted to be free  and  tired of relaxing and fixing weaves but mainly because I suffer from temporary Alopecia ( hair loss) I don't have anything against gays you are entitled to live you life the way you chose to and hey! you don't chose who you fall in love with but the truth is I am so not gay I just had to do what a girl has to do before I mad Lol
