short hair vs long hair
Posted: 6/18/2006 7:19:28 PM
I am getting frustrated over this one. I have been single for four years and had long hair up until last year when I shaved it for my mom who had cancer. Before I shaved my head I had no problem getting a date or meeting men.
The day I shaved it that it all changed. Men don't even look at me now. As soon as I reply to an e mail here and show my picture that's it. My hair is growing in but still very short. Is long hair really that important to men?

I dont think it matters its personality and sharing the same intrests thats important to me.

I went through the same kinda thing from the opposite end of the spectrum. I had long hair Down to the middle of my back (I kept it neat) and shaved it off out of respect for my Dad. I see a lot of women say they dont like long hair but I had a lot more dates with it long

This is my first time posting here and someone is saying this is a self pity thread. In no way do I feel sorry for myself! It was worth it and I would do it again in a minute! My question is out of wanting to know, nothing more. :)

OP, I can't and won't speak for everyone. But from my own point of view, hair length on a woman is just part of the overall physical appearance. Some women I've met look damn sexy with short hair.
Sorry that there are still people in the world who can't, or simply won't see the good in everyone.
Hope ya find the happiness you seek

Thats horrible OP I am sorry to hear that. I for one would NEVER reject someomone for that, if anything they would be more attractive to me because it shows they have a great heart and character and confidence and i love that in a person. It's unfortunate that some people are like that, but i can wake up every morning and look in the mirror and know that I have alot of class and character then that. I wish you the best ok.

It says a lot about the men who were speaking to you and what they were made of. Don't let them get to you. I've met a few on here who think bigger girls aren't or can't be pretty and called me a liar on it.

Piss on them. There are some wonderful men here. Just give it time.

A parallel thaught here. Am I the only one who finds that there isn't enough head shaved women in porn?

I still remeber how much my belly hurt of laughter after I saw 3 guys cumming on a girl's shaved head.


That's what I call fertilizing an egg

well as far as i go i am into the hair thing the more the better; i have allways wanted a woman with long hair ; not to say short haired women are not ok to ; it just i like it long everybody dont have to like the same thing that dont make you a bad person ; one thing i have learned in here on these forums there sure is alot of people that really put down another because they just happen to prefer something differant ; and thats a shame

Yes. I recently took off all of mine and suddenly have the plague or something. Fortunately, I don't really care because I wasn't getting any anyway. But Several guys said outright to my face that they thought women with short hair looked like Sh*t.

I think it all depends on the man, I know some guys love long hair and hate short hair, but other love short hair and hate long hair, and then there are the guys who dont really care what length your hair is. And dont worry your hair will grow back to what it was!

WAAAYYY back in the dark ages when I was getting some....I was with a guy who respectfully requested I pin my hair up when we were going at it. It always tangled around us and got in his way.
I can see where THAT might cause a guy to care either way. But the ones who are vehemently against short hair...I don't get it. They are allowed their own opinion, I just don't understand it.

One of the reasons I married my Ex-Wife was because she had hair down to her rear. It was awesome. And then she went and cut it short and I hated it... Never said so but she just wasn't as sexy anymore... and then when she added on the extra 100 pounds after each kid really wasn't attracted to her...

To honest, I can't stand when people judge soemone over something like this. I wish I can talk sense to those people that judge other on these silly issues. I just know i don't judge and I know who I am as an individual and that I have more integrity then to insult someone by rejecting them over their hair or lack thereof.

OP can i say something even though I don't know what you look like, I would like to say that I think just what you did for your mom and the fact thay you have a loving heart and are confident and were willing to shave your hed for your mom.....just for those reasons to me you are beautiful and I mean that from the bottom of my heart. You're a great woman.!!

wether a woman has short hair, long hair, no hair or a friggin mohawk doesn't matter to me...
what matters to me is the way I feel when i'm with her...
too many people are worried about having trophy boyfriends or girlfriends...
no one really takes the time to get to know someone as a person and I think that that is completely shallow...

i deal with the longhair/shorthair discrimination daily...
Try bein a longhaired guy meetin a woman when you're surrounded by the "90210" crowd...
damn near impossible...lol
If you think guys are picky, you got another thing coming...
women (especially in this site) are 200,000 times worse...lol

keep your chin up...there are a few decent guys that actually like a woman for who they are....

Well, I have read all the posts with great interest. Having hair down to my tushie hasnt helped me a bit. LOL...As far as I am concerned, its all about weight. BBW's are not real popular around here. LOL..and I know for a fact too thin is not a good thing either. .. Doesnt bother me a whole lot, I am who I am. *shrugs* To each their own.

FIRST - AAAAAAAAAWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!! It makes me scream when I hear that BBW are not accepted here - take that crap out of your head!! You are accepted here - If I am, you are!!!! I have never had a hard time getting men - I recently lost 135lbs and can afford to loose a lot more - regardless I have always attracted men and good looking ones at that - why because I have a very positive and confident personality. God - start loving your self the way you are and others will love you as well.
This goes for your bloody hair as well!!!
People it's not about your appearance it's about your attitude and the people you draw to you, based on that attitude.
If some jerk or jerks pass you by because of thier shallow attitude (and yes I'm saying that "S" word again) it's thier loss!!!
Oh and yes people we have our preferences - YADA YADA YADA - but try treating others the way you wish to be treated!!! Wow you might even find the love of your life - Go figure!!!

Thank you!!! My next rant will be available when warranted!!!!

YEA, Flavia..me neither!

Hey just want to put my 2 cents in, that might end up being a dime.

Little blurred on the email intake. If your emailing someone and then you get 'informed" they don't like the short hair issue and aren't going to keep exchange of emails up, even after you tell them your hair is growing back?!?? And/or don't email after the pic exchange....

Well, that's a blessing..period. The guy is wacked,either way.

Myself, I am a sucker for long hair,no matter the color. Always have been and everyone dated had hair at least to their shoulders. I'm a sucker for blue/green eyes. I'm not positive what makes my periscope go up for a better look it just know what does . Hair and eyes ARE, girls with short hair, men, children, and farm livestock ARE NOT.

Lets be honest MOSTof the time looks is what grabs you first...Yea yea yea.... I've spoken for those first few minutes with cuties, walking away thinking....Damn, I wonder if I could talk her into getting a GED. I've also love to talk, and get into a really good conversation with some one with short hair and I find myself pondering romantic thoughts.

I confess I find a girl that I think is real attractive and has short hair, I find myself staring at her like a train wreck. My brain trying to process the intake. She notices my staring I will tell her ( not a cheesy pick up line) "Hey, I think your an attractive women that looks good in short hair"

For the record. I would date and/or marry a girl with short hair at a heartbeat, but very very rarely does a girl with short hair grab my attention. I'm still young enough to snap my neck on a women with a tight body. But it spins just as quick with a girl"s hair reguardless of how tall or short, or endowment.

I don't know why. It's just the processor that sends the info to the hard drive so to speak. I have no control of it, and boy oh boy am I glad men,children, and farm animals DON'T

I think you're amazing for doing that in support of your mom and if a guy can't get over short /shaved hair and see that then it's his loss.
I cut my hair a few years ago and my boyfriend at the time *LOVED* It , which kinda surprised me because he was always a fan of longer hair. It's another one of those personal preferences but if someone will only date another person if they have long hair , well thats just a little ridiculous - we could all lose our hair at some point , you never know what lifes goinna throw at you.

I think that what you did to support your mother is incredibly brave, and loving.
Know in your heart that you are a good person, and that if someone stops talking to you after you have told them your story, they don't deserve you.

If it really makes you uncomfortable though, maybe invest in hair extensions, wefts, or a wig!
