It's nice to know there are men like you who see gray as beautiful. Too many guys make women feel undesirable and unemployable with gray hair and the haircolor industry amplifies those messages for profit, hence they feel the need to hide the gray. Somtimes those guys need to be ditched.
Just before I got married at the age of 47 I asked my husband-to-be if maybe I should dye my gray curls for the wedding (a potluck party on a farm!). He said if it’s something you want to do for yourself, go ahead. But don’t do it for me. I love your hair. It’s now 14 years later and so happily married. I haven’t dyed my hair in over 20 years. Can’t wait to see your film.
Thank you Ilise. Maybe that’s the next step in feminism. Men loving the message.
I do find it amusing somehow when I see a gray-haired Oldster with a defiant streak of chartreuse or crimson. But I know enough to keep my mouth shut. (btw—you look great). Best of luck with your film.
Writing as a man, i find it sad when “ditch the dye” is preceded by “ditch the guy.” Women who are gray and self-confidently so are just so beautiful.

I’ve got a nice story about FIT, if you’d like to hear it. <irwinepstein@Icloud.com>
It’s too personal for this platform. But you can email me if you like.
