Would you want your kid to look like him?

My daily routine of getting ready for work in my room includes listening to Class 95 on the ray-deee-yo. Not been catching up with the ongoing Singapore Idol contest, the upbeat conversation between djs The Flying Dutchman and Glenn Ong brought me to the image of one contestant, Paul Twohill, once again to remember how it really stunned and then puzzled me when i first saw him on tv.

"Would you like your kids to look like him?"
"Well, my kids are not performers..."
"But...Paul looks like this even when he is not on stage!"...

Some of Paul's looks in the photos sent a little chill down my spine. I would not want my kids to look like this! Personally i felt the image speaks more of a lack of self-esteem, you know, like not being able to face the world, more than an unique style. Is the world so glaring to him, that his sight has to be screened through his fringe?

i am guessing this cos' i remembered a period of time in my youth days when i tried to use my hair to cover my face. *Gasps*. And i knew deep down, it was definitely not a stylish act.

Back to the question. So..
Would you want your kids to look like this?

To what extent can we be different so as to be unique, without (ahem) scaring the world? :p
