Oh no! The dreaded failure of the written word to accurately convey connotation and intonation has struck again!

I meant no negative connotation, and absolutely did not intend to criticize anyone!

Allow me to try to explain in a Paula Dean overkill sort-of-way.
My implication was that: I am a guy who was watching sports. But I was bored enough to open up a thread about a hairdresser knowing that the thread would be a lady-centric topic. I attempted to inject some humor.

Guys don't usually pay a lot of money for a haircut. Many of us pay a single-digit or barely a double-digit amount for a haircut. My tongue-in-cheek attempt at humor was that if a guy paid the rates that ladies normally pay for a haircut, he would expect a different set of "services".

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not organize the girl's posse and come after me! I throw myself completely on the mercy of all whom I unintentionally offended. Is all forgiven?
