    NO SHORT SHORT HAIR

    I know it's a real thing among a certain type of guy to be passionately against women with short hair, but I will never understand the emotional investment in gendering hair length or 2. being against short hair for women.

    I just do not get it.

      there's a trifold stereotype that short haired women are 1. lesbian or 2. bisexual or 3. leftist

      so when guys like this rail against that, it's just reactionary politics and LGBTphobia

      There are many kinds of nasty nutritional disorders that will show themselves in long hair. Brittle, patches of hair falling out, etc. Cutting the hair short gets interpreted by the lizard hindbrain as trying to hide something. It's why we think long silky hair is attractive, on both men and women, because it demonstrates good health.
