What if... stay with me here... we married standards with effectiveness?
A brief thread... (1/n)
Hair standards for women have been awful. Just ask @gilltheamazon or @evo_kositz or @Accidental_E9 or like any woman in uniform. (/2)
But womenās hair isnāt the only generally arbitrary appearance standards.
A worthwhile natural experiment can be tattoo standards. (/3)
In the short time Iāve been in service, tattoo were:
-not allowed if exposed in Class B
-universally waived to include neck and hand tattoos
-allowed but photographed (all not just gang/racially suspect)
-acceptable for enlistees but not officer candidates (/4)
Did the Armyās effectiveness drop when tattoo standards were relaxed?
Did we become more effective when they were tightened?
The easy answer is no. Arbitrary standards are, wait for it, arbitrary.

A brief thread... (1/n)
SCOOP: Army leaders are discussing making long-awaited changes to hair and grooming regulations in the name of inclusivity, including allowing some women to wear ponytails & removing offensive language from AR 670-1.

Final changes are expected in January.https://t.co/iLrYMONloX
