Our sisters that wear keski but cut facial hair/wax

As a male, I realize that this might be insensitive but let me preface by saying that a male cannot understand what it is like to be a female in today's society so if an Amritdhari bibi is cutting her facial hair/wax, it doesn't bother me. It's the bibi's decision.

However, what does bother me is if that same bibi is wearing a keski. I don't understand the logic here?

Either:

1) cut your facial hair/wax and don't cover your hair on top of it; OR
2) don't do the above and wear a keski.

Sorry if I have offended anyone. Thanks.

What about the the men who keep their hair and wear paghs but trim their beards ... 

So if they can do it and it's accepted then I guess women can too ... 

not if theyre amritdhari and the same goes for men - neither one of em should be harming a single hair on their body if theyve amritchak and given their head to guruji...

Not quite.

Keski wearing women are Amritdhari women. Comparing them with an Amritdhari men is more of a proper comparison.

I understand the premise but I don't know of a single amritdhari man who trims his beard.

If there are men out there like that, then yes same logic applies.

No idea about now, but a good few years ago, it was in vogue for women to get laser treatment before taking amrit ie they did it specifically so they didn’t have to worry about facial hair once they’d taken amrit. 

I was not aware of this. I suppose this is a good compromise but I still find it really strange.

Again as a male, I'll never understand the perspective of a female. It is definitely tougher to be a female in today's modern society versus a male.

They are not harming the hair - they are actually murdering it.

Kes kattal deserves the death sentence as it is literally murder.

Anyone who cuts their hair is a Hindu in my opinion

Exactly, It is a Bajjar Kurhet to cut, trim, dye your hair and means you become a patit and have to go Pesh in front of the Panj Pyare and be blessed with Amrit again.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
