My mother once told me as a child, “never trust a person with a mustache.” Did that prevent me from growing a mustache in the 1970’s? No, it did not. The warning, although I believe it was sincere, lacked a firm grounding in reality.
I once had a case that involved an elderly woman who swore her husband’s facial hair was a result of a pact with the devil. While I initially accepted the retainer’s fee for my service to investigate the claim, I refunded half of the payment when I determined the claim to be less a result of evil, and more a result of this woman’s particular battle with dementia. Needless to say, my opinion was her husband’s facial hair did not seem the least bit unnatural...
