You know, now that you've got me thinking, there are soooo many things about Nathaniel that I can't stand. It's urks me that he's an adult yet Anita coddles him like he's three. He's so blasted needy that it's annoying. And the hair. GAH!!! First, I recognize that in LKH's mind, the only good man is a man with a long mane of hair, but OMG! I've never met a man with hair down to his ankles because it's so unrealistic. Even the women I've heard that have long hair state that it's the biggest chore they've ever experienced. Long hair is such a hinderance. I just don't see any man (or boy in Nathaniel's case) letting his hair get that long. Gah! Nathaniel is now my least favorite AB character, and that's saying a lot since I personally HATE Jean Claude.
