Grey hair story-women care for grey hair

This is a story and you can know what is mean.
Xiao Zou and Nancy, a North American girl, became friends after they met in a course they  both took. Nancy had more grey hair than most people of the same age, and had been dying her  hair for several years.

While they were having a break one day in between two classes, Xiao Zou noticed Nancy’s grey  hair. She told her so, but Nancy changed the topic right away. When everyone else left, Nancy  said to Xiao Zou, “ Please don't mention my grey hair while there are men around.”
In China,a fair number of people have grey hair early because of genetic problems in the  family. Some dye their hair black while others simply let it be.Most people do not seem to  worry about it. Consequently, it had not occurred to Xiao Zou that it might bother Nancy to  talk about it in front of men.

In this particular case, Xiao Zou’s comment might be as  innocent as telling Nancy that it is time to dye her hair again. However, most Westerners  might be more sensitive to being overweight, going bald, and going grey. Negative body images  are a serious psychological as well as physiological problem for many Westerners, especially  women to whom going grey is a powerful symbol of aging. Getting old has many negative  connotations for Western women: the loss of child-bearing capacity, the loss of physical  attractiveness to men, decreasing opportunities to do something with one’s life.

A usual  perception of many Westerners is that grey hair gives men a look of maturity and distinction,  but makes a woman look old and unattractive. Talking about a woman’s grey hair, therefore,  is like walking into her emotional mine field!    
The story is very meaningful,I want to say the grey hair is important for women than men.and  now more and more women suffered,they don't want to anyone talking about it,so we must  respect it,and hope there are ways to solve it.
