How can you deem those modern aggressive, vulgar haircuts acceptable? They're so gross, revolting, they express nothing but arrogance. Don't ever put that on positive characters again PLEASE.

And dyed hair too, take that crap away from Fiora, she's supposed to be a decent person.

Why can't a decent person have dyed hair or a modern hairstyle?

Seriously, it's like this whole notion that because you're covered in tattoos, you're not worthy of hiring. The two are completely unrelated.

They're related. If you can't perceive the world correctly, you're unable to judge things around you correctly.

What does this have to do with perceiving the world? A person's personal aesthetic choices have to do with their culture and past experiences. It has absolutely nothing to do with perception and judging things correctly.

Photos of Ghosts1 votes

It's not a choice, it's precultural. We're talking about an allergic reaction. It's not judging either, it's really a matter of perception. When something's as ugly as a bare skull, it should make your back quiver instantly, without any time to compare it to anything you know. It's eldricht.

What we find aesthetically pleasing is not a choice. It is not based on some pre-cultural mumbo jumbo, it's based on our own personal experiences and the culture we grew up in. It changes as we age and learn.

Ethics follow the same rules but are not tied to aesthetics at all. We live in a world where people move from place to place, and while it might not be likely to meet a business man covered in tattoos it is very possible. It doesn't mean he is untrustworthy, it simply means he has a far more interesting story to tell than his fellows.

What you're doing is judging people based on your personal taboos. You may not want to voice that opinion very much if you plan on sticking to very public portions of the internet, because around here freedom of expression is one of the single most important things we can have.

They are related, though less so maybe than in the past. Tattoos and strange hairstyles are correlated with personality traits of impulsivity, less reliable on objective judgement and more on whimsical desire, and lower discipline. Just because it doesn't apply to an individual, doesn't mean it isn't a valid judgement when the data supports it at a macro level.

Valor Bot5 votes

Sure, but correlation =/= causation -- whimsical hairstyles and tattoos all over does not an unreliable or impulsive person make -- I suppose that is what I was trying to get at; one does not necessarily guarantee the other.

Maximum Morde5 votes

You are right it doesnt, and in an idealistic setting we would hopefully look past it. In reality, we rapidly make day to day decisions based on only snapshots of information the best we can. If two features are commonly seen together, we use them to help our decision making process. Causation is irrelevant, we are simply using it as an indicator. It's why appearances and first impressions are so important even when ideally they shouldn't be.

In League, it's a video game and everything I'm saying doesn't really apply because fantasy can be whatever we want it to be. Reality need not apply.

How can you deem those modern aggressive, vulgar haircuts acceptable?

Illaoi's hair is literally a cultural thing, are you saying an entire ethnic group is vulgar and unacceptable? Or are you just that ignorant?

Photos of Ghosts1 votes

I know traditional culture of many places and ethnicities better than those who come from there and I fight for their conservation - but only the acceptable parts. Shitty hair isn't. Nor are jewels.

Okay, fair enough.

Start with yourself.

If we didn't select traditions, we'd have to tolerate gender inequality or cannibalism as well.

Catastrop4 votes

Gender Inequality and Cannibalism is a far cry from someone wanting to express their culture through a hairstyle.

Because you're still asleep. One day you'l understand that there are visually acceptable hings and others that aren't. It's all symptom of the same shit.

I'm planning on dying my hair rainbow like Tradechat before school, I'll post it here just to spite this thread.

OrphanerDualscar8 votes

So are you going to tell me that I'm a revolting and unethical person because I've dyed my hair and plan on getting many tattoos? I take care of myself and treat others around me with respect, and I'm rather offended that you've decided to immediately judge people and their personalities based on how they look. Get to know people before you judge them so harshly.

Photos of Ghosts1 votes

Yes. You disgust me. And you DO NOT take care of yourself if you destroy your appearance with that.

redniwediS6 votes

You are a horrible person.

Photos of Ghosts1 votes

I may be, but I told you nothing about me so you can't say it.

redniwediS6 votes

Your words have told quite a bit about you, actually. You're willing to tell someone they disgust you, right to their face, simply because they have a different idea of what is beautiful.

To make matters worse you think your idea of what is beautiful is the only one worth considering.

You've said plenty about who you are already.

Photos of Ghosts1 votes

That would only be wrong if I was wrong about what's beautiful.

redniwediS5 votes

You're not wrong about what you think is beautiful. You're only wrong in thinking there is only one right way to look at things.

Ralanr2 votes

Dude, stop giving him attention.

Photos of Ghosts1 votes

But there's only one I have access to, and ugly things make my life ugly. Furthermore, in many cases the intention of arrogance is so goddamn clear that I just can't let those people do that shit. Someone in another thread gave me the example of a GoT actress, I think she's called Natalie Dormer? Well, forget about the pukeful hair for a sec. Look at her pictures with normal hair. PEOPLE CONSIDER THAT SMUG, DISRESPECTFUL FACE A MODEL OF BEAUTY. Thats what my daughters will look like if I raise them in the current world. I can't accept that.

redniwediS3 votes

You only have access to one because you won't allow yourself to consider any other than your own.

You consider Natalie smug and disrespectful. That's you. Some people think she is beautiful, others average. You think she looks smug and disrespectful.

You have the right to think that, however you do not have the right to consider her opinion of beauty less than your own if she believes that is beautiful. She does not make your life ugly, you make it ugly because you won't just live your life and let others live theirs.

If someone wants to look ugly according to your idea of what is beautiful that's fine. It's their chosen aesthetic that they chose with their own free will.

If you raise your daughters to think on their own and follow their own free will they won't blindly follow societal norms. They might not choose something you like, but they will choose it because they think it is beautiful, not because other people think it's beautiful. That is what matters and that is what too many people forget, including yourself.

This might actually be one of the funniest things I've ever read, congratulations. It's utterly hilarious to imagine someone actually managing to lose sleep over something this outright stupid.

It's not stupid, it's purposefully ugly. I won't tolerate people making themselves ugly on my planet, on the place I'm forced to share with them, on purpose.

MavenSong3 votes

on my planet

right there... you think this world is yours alone to decide what happens in it... it isnt. you cant tell people how to think or act. This world is ALL OF OURS to share not solely yours under your bidding. If I ever wanted to dye my hair black or lime green it doesnt matter. it isnt your choice or your decision, its mine. sure you can think whatever you want you can think that its ugly and thats fine but thats an opinion, not fact or law.

Last time I checked Photo the Western World encouraged freedom of creative self-expression, to give Riot shit for representing the ideals of modern society is mind numbing stupid. This forum is designed to either appreciate or to shed light on issues regarding the game itself but if its Photo of Ghosts attitude to draw a line at different styled hair cuts then surly he must be aware of what kind of person that expresses himself to be to literally anyone who reads this post. Regardless of the fact that you don't like "odd" or "different to norm" haircuts is your opinion to have, though you would be in the minor minority to think this. But to give Riot shit for having characters or champ skins with lets say Rihanna or Natalie Dormer like shaved sides isn't really a worthy opinion to make public. But bravo to you Photo go ahead and make a fool of yourself.

Look I get where you are coming from Photo, no one can deny that vulgar haircut styles exist in the world. But League is a game consisting of diverse champions all designed to appeal to wider range of players and hair styles are one of many ways to represent unique characteristics. Now I'm sorry if I and everyone here is explaining things to you that you should be aware of but can ya blame us for talking to you like your a child. Also what kind of response where you hoping for Photo? Its hard to believe that you genuinely thought you would get a positive response from this.

P.S. its also hard to tell if all your comments to far are still about champion hair styles or irl hair styles.

He's the bad guy. A killing machine in life and in death. No one wants to be like Sion. No one wants to be a giant fucktard revived against its will to have pieces of metal bolted in its rotten flesh an go around slaughtering people with a dull axe.
