So, you know that fic where Eric Staal is a girl (but still captain of the Canes)? And for the playoffs, since she can't grow a beard, she dyes her hair Cane-red? I was thinking that the real equivalent of a playoff beard for a lady would be not shaving her legs and armpits, not getting her eyebrows does... because isn't playoff beard, like a statement of complete commitment to the game to the extent that one abandons all personal grooming?

(And isn't a dye job the opposite of that?)
