    I call, bullshit, guys clothes are just as expensive as women's clothes if you compare like with like. If you are some no style nerd, obviously you're gunna pay less, but if you compare hot clothes, then guy's is often more, likewise, if you go into Primark, the £2 mountains are all chicks stuff, the equivalent guy's stuff is like £4-£5, and guy's clothes are all boring compared to chick's stuff anyway.

    As for men and womens hair cuts, I call bullshit again, the only way you figure it as costing more is if you don't compare like with like, if you compare a barber to a hairdresser, then obviously it will be different, but if a woman goes into the barbers and gets a buzzcut, it's gunna be just as cheap as if a guy did, like wise if a guy with long hair goes into a salon and gets a sweet layercut, and dyed and highlighted it's gunna be just as expensive.

    as opposed to all that, but instead of applying the sunlight directly to the clothes, absorbing the light millions of years ago with trees, so that the light falls on the leaves, the trees photosynthesise, and store the solar energy as cellulose, then burying and preserving those trees and then compressing hem for millions of years to process them into coal or oil, then digging into the ground, sending people down to mine the coal out with huge drills and cutters, or pumping the oil out, often at sea on huge floating platforms and carrying the coal in trucks, and pumping the oil through pipelines, so a place where it is burned to heat water, which tuns turbines, which turn big magnets which move electrons down wires,which turn other magnets and heat bits of metal, so that fans attached to the magnets can punch air over the hot bits of metal, and other magnets can turn a big drum.
    nah, I think the sunlight directly onto the clothes is more efficient.

    People of each social class were expected to help and support those in the class below them, and did so.


    Bullshit. People were expected to work as slaves to those in the social class above them, and were occasionally given a few scraps from the table.
