Jesús Aceves has hypertrichosis, which makes his hair grow abundantly over his face and back. Because of his condition, he’s also known as The Wolf Man. But he’s tired of this alias and wants to live a normal life.
Meet Jesús Aceves, a 55-year-old man born with a condition called hypertrichosis, which means he has abnormal hair growth over his body, especially his face. Although married with kids, Jesús isn’t fully happy with his living conditions. He says he and his family suffer discrimination. In an interview, one of his kids mentioned, “People call me names, and they even tell their kids not to be my friends.”

He worked in the circus all his life, traveling through several cities. But now, he’s tired of being seen as a freak. As a consequence of years on the road, he’s been known as The Wolf Man.
Back home and not in the circus anymore, he’s facing another challenge: finding a “normal” job. He needs to support his family since his wife works in temporary jobs.
After several failed job interviews, he agreed to try something he had always avoided: shave his face. He relied on his family barber to transform him, even creating eyebrows and lashes.
The experience was difficult since the face is an extremely sensitive body area, but both he and his wife believed that simply by shaving, he would be able to find a job.
Jesús did several interviews, and it’s confident that now he’ll find somewhere to work besides the circus. If this happens, he must shave his face every 2 days.
Although rare, some conditions aren’t impossible to have. Luckily, people find a way to overcome the difficulties a rare condition brings and strive in life. Hannah Tyre, for example, was born with osteogenesis imperfecta, meaning that her bones break very easily. But her love for makeup made her an internet influencer, reaching millions of followers. We hope that, by reaching the mainstream media, people with genetic diseases won’t suffer more discrimination.
Chris Christie Loudly Booed Off The Stage – Watch It Here
During the fourth Republican primary debate, former New Jersey Governor Christ Christie used the event as an opportunity to attack former President Donald Trump.
However, the audience at the debate made it very apparent that they were not pIeased with Christie’s slights toward Trump as they ruthlessly booed him.
Christie opened his anti-Trump statement, cIaiming the former Republican president will be a convicted felon by the time the 2024 election occurs. While Trump faces several tense legal battles ahead of the election, he remains undeterred, promising voters that he will reclaim the White House from Joe Biden despite the litigation.
I want you all to kind of picture in your mind. So election day, you all be heading to the polls to vote. And that’s something that Donald Trump will not be able to do. Because he will be convicted of felonies before then. And his right to vote will be taken away, Christie said.
Following this claim, the audience loudly booed the former governor, forcing Christie to defend his statement. The primary candidate, who bareIy qualified for the latest debate, claimed the crowd was denying reality by continuing to support Trump.
