Is it my choice whether I wear a ski helmet?
…..why do people want to make me feel guilty, or even foolish for rejecting this trend.
………..and its beyond me how ians&nine………. got to be a top contributer – considering how unintelligent his answers are? I guess it has to be a reflection of the amount of time he has to waste. Though, if so, he should be open to replys.
Iggy,
How many times do you need to ask this question? If you don’t want to wear one, then don’t. Please stop worrying about what others do or don’t do. Those of us who do wear one have told you our reasons why…if they’re not enough for you to decide to wear one, then don’t. You have weighed the risks and benefits of not wearing one vs. wearing one and have decided the risk/benefit ratio of wearing one isn’t high enough for you to make the plunge. That same risk/benefit analysis was high enough for me to wear a helmet.
I honestly don’t care if you wear one…it’s your choice. It doesn’t affect me one way or the other, so I really don’t have a say. All I really care about is you not colliding into me when we’re on the slopes! (then I will have a lot to say, mostly filled with expletives and a discussion about the code!)
So, in closing. Only YOU can make yourself feel guilty or foolish. Unless you’re underage (your parents get to have a major say in this decision), then if anyone makes a comment, the adult response: “I weighed the pros and cons and decided it wasn’t for me”. Then you move on. If anyone wants to add more, just politely thank them for their interest in your health, but that you’re more than happy with your decision, then walk away. It then becomes their problem.
