[I'm With Stupid]

You are equating racism to abuse about hair? Seriously?

Obviously the ginger thing isn't the same as racism, but hair discrimination has its roots in racism.

It's usually schools, companies and other organisations who have a dress code that includes hair, but it's based entirely on the type of hair white people have. So black hairstyles end up being classes as 'unprofessional' or against the rules, and then have to go through various time-consuming processes to make their hair acceptable.

I heard of one in Japan where a student had naturally brown hair, and was forced to dye it because the rule is 'black hair only.' What the rule should have been, if they have to have one, was no dye, but the people coming up with the rules couldn't imagine that anyone would have a natural hair colour other than black. It's not even malicious racism, it's just the sort of thoughtless racism where you clearly don't have any minorities involved in these decision-making processes.

He's got a head of hair like a cue ball

Where I used to work there was a bald, coloured man and he spotted another bald man who was white.
He rushed over, grabbed the white mans' head forcing it into his own and said, "Look, pot black!"
Lol.

What about extremely wide partings and are they a cause for concern ??

Acceptable, as long as you don't go for the 'comb over'.

I remember Fabian Delph referring to himself as a Malteser.

More like forced "conformism" rather than Racism.
