Girls: Guys w/ Long hair vs short hair

[Cybercode]

So it seems in my area that the girls admire guys with long hair. They just basically ignore all guys with short hair for some reason.

As a guy (and don't be offended by what I say) but when I see a guy with long hair, to me it means they aren't really masculine. They aren't in touch with their male side as I may. But when I see a guy with short hair, I think well, they have short hair and such, they are well cut, clean, and maybe shaven. You know seems like they got their ducks in a row and is man enough.

I've had short hair all my life, and I feel mature without long hair, I feel well cut, I feel like the adults can trust me cause I'm not a "hippie" as they put it.

But it baffles me why girls love guys with long hair and push aside guys with short hair in my area.

I'm a straight guy but that's how I put it.

So girls that like guys with long hair, why do you like guys with long hair?

I think anyone that cares about how masculine or feminine they are or being "in touch with their (gender) side" is insecure about their own sexuality. I've seen some very good-looking guys with long hair, and some very attractive women with very short hair. In fact, I'd even go as far as saying that there are some really hot bald women.

Uhh... so... how does the length of hair determine masculinity or the lack there of? I personally like guys with long-ish hair... but that is just a preference thing.... short hair isn't a deal breaker for me though.

IMO, Short hair looks either to old or too young. Like it's what your parents want.

I'm not saying that's true, Just what comes into mind When I see short haired guys. Or they're overly athletic (Ew).

i like guys with long hair, because they seem like the kind that are more free spirited. i also like guys who aren't all masculine. i really don't like the macho, macho type.

When I met my boyfriend, he had longish hair. I found it sexy because it was badboyish. Girls are usually attracted to bad boys in a sense, and long hair is usually a symbol of that. It shows a guy willing to be different (Even though these days long hair is how you conform!). I felt like I was dating myself someone who was a bad boy. Eventually, he cut his hair. He now has short hair. It's short on the sides and back and spiked in the middle (Not like a Mohawk). It's not very "professional" or "masculine" but it IS short, and it is still rebellious.

You say short hair makes a man more masculine but you're wrong. Men can make a short hair do look enmasculine with just a bit of grease. Hair doesn't make the man, that is a for sure thing.

i have short hair, and when i had long hair about 5 years ago, i didnt get a single girl commenting on my hair. I prefer shorter hair but not short that it looks bald.

^ This, and...

Personally, in my experience, there's nothing wrong with either of them, but the difference I see is that right off the bat you know a guy with long hair is probably being himself if it's not just the rebellion thing. Of course, some guys are being themselves and having short hair, but there are more guys who have short hair just because "guys have short hair."

Someone with long hair also probably doesn't have as much of an issue with their masculinity as many insecure guys do by trying to act "like a man." And girls like guys who are individual and confident. But also, this is mainly my own preference but maybe others can relate, I don't want a guy who thinks he as to act a certain way. If, as a person, you are more "like a girl" than you are "like a guy," I'm much happier with a guy who is just themselves than someone who feels they have to put on a damn mask so people don't "question your manhood." Before I realized I was gay, I never dated even one "manly" man. They were all a mixture. A balance, yang as well as yin. They weren't way too yin, but they weren't way too yang which really tends to turn me off. But they weren't even close to being gay, or a pansy, or however guys feel for other guys who aren't "man" enough.

As well, it's all a preference thing as well. Don't tell me you don't have some kind of thing about girls with really short hair vs. girls with long hair. Whatever your feelings are about it, whether you think short-hair girls are too butch or just that you prefer long hair attraction-wise, it's the same with girls. Some girls are into guys with long hair.

More hotter when a man has short hair it suites you when your a rockstar with long hair but if your not a rockstar then better have short hair.

I don't agree with your views on masculinity and that, I just find guys with short hair more attractive.

Depends what you would call "long hair". Is Justin Beiber hair long? Or like the Steven Tyler length? I have the typical blonde surfer hair, I like it.. I would never get a buzz. At least until I become an adult.
