expression
- Figurative reference to the method used by parents to force compliance of a child or adolescent. Erroneously believed to refer to pubic hair. Historic references in literature this expression to describe someone trapped by an inarguable fact or proposition and forced to concede, the way parents enforce compliance even from a willfully disobedient child by clamping a lock of this fine, short and often curly hair between their thumb and forefinger and lifting.
When the officer reminded me that writing me up for disorderly conduct would violate my parole, he had me by the short and curlies. I didn't dare protest further but remained silent while he continued to lecture me as if I were a child.
