So the thread on Katy Perry got me thinking: She looks so much different but, IMO, even sexier with long hair. It seems to me, and maybe I am wrong, but most men like women to have long hair. There have been examples of women in the past and present with short hair that were considered very good-looking but I would venture that the preference is for long hair. So I am doing a poll to see if this is indeed the case. Also, explain why you think that men prefer women to have long hair vs. short hair or if you are on the other side, explain why you think they like short hair better. For me, I think that when a woman has long hair, it represents another distinct difference between a man and a woman. Long flowing hair is a sign of feminine beauty. Hair seems to hide sharp features in the face which of course, would be accentuated if the person has a short hairstyle. I know that a lot of women hate having long hair because it means more work to keep it up and prepare it, but, IMO, it does look better.
Is it an aesthetic thing? Do we subconsciously think that women with short hair are just not "feminine" enough? It reminds me of a woman that never wears a skirt or a dress - yes, they are lots of women who can look sexy wearing pants but after a while, you do wonder what they would look like if they ever showed some leg with a dress or skirt.
I dunno, man. I think it's a style thing. Long hair on women is default. Like short hair is default on men. You deviate, you better have some style, some swagger, to pull it all off. Katie Perry does not pull it off...but she does have other assets to compensate. On that note, I think all women go through a 'short hair' phase that usually comes crashing down. Then women's hair gets gradually shorter as they get older because it's just easier.
Of course long hair is better, it's more girly, but short works if she's already attractive. Long is a Hooters prerequisite.
Long hair almost always. Even women that look absolutely amazing with short hair generally look even better with it longer.
Used to love only long hair, but these days I love girls either way, and I've been digging girls with hair shortish. Manny should appreciate anything he can get. Lol.
I’ve leaned towards long hair in my time, but honestly, it depends on the girl/woman/chick. Some can pull off both, but in general, at least from what I’ve seen, or touched, more often than not they need some ethereal combination of features to really look stunning with short hair. In my opinion, anyway. Being tall and slender helps.
At the end of the day, if a woman can pull off short hair, she can get it. If she consents of course.
I prefer long. For some reason I always associate short hair on women as either a short term fashion thing or they're just old now and dgaf about having to take care of a big mop anymore lol.
Depends on the girl. I’ve know a few that looked better with short than long, while others can’t pull off the short hair. Anecdotally, it seems harder for white girls and bigger girls to pull off the short hair without looking butch, though it may just be a prejudice of mine.
