A question for the ladies

[maddman75]

I really have no way of knowing what she might be meaning without knowing what your hair looks like. I can think of a few possiiblities. If its long and soft and lucsious, she might be hinting around to let her play with your hair. You know, like she does with her girlfriends. Or she could be trying to subtley drop hints that this is no longer 1974, and you are not waiting in line for Aerosmith tickets. Or she could indeed be wanting to hook up with you.

Maybe you should post some pics so we get a better idea?

I'm not a lady, nor do I dress as one on Friday nights, but have you considered that the haircutting suggestion may have been a gentle way of saying "you'd look better with short hair"?

Let's be serious here folks. There are some pretty nasty looking people out there, and some could use a bit if a push in the right direction. For example, I'm not great at color coordination, every once in a while, my wife will look at what I'm wearing and say "Oh hell no", and make me go change. I appreciate the input, and if I stood on a chair and preached about "not being true to myself, and not willing to change who I am", it would get old fast.

If I told someone discreatly, that they might want to throw on some deoderant because they have noticeable BO, and they told me that they're not willing to compromise who they are, and bend to the masses who wear deoderant, I'd tell tell them something akin to "Get bent, and join the populace of the norm, instead of the freaks".

Please don't take this as an offense, it's not directed at anyone in perticular.

Lets clear some air here. I have no interest in this girl. Even if I did I could not persue her for three reasons: 1) She has a boyfriend. 2) If we started dating one or both of us could get fired/transfered. Our job just handed down new employee rules. 3) This girl so close to looks an personality to my ex that they could be related. So it's kind of hard for me to get the warm fuzzies over her because she reminds me of the first girl I was interested in and then broke my heart.
I can't post a pic of me because the file is too large. Beside it's a pic of me dressed like Jesus while at work. FYI I work at a mall based adult novelty and gift store. Blasphemy has never been so fun as when Jesus rings you up for a 11 inch glow in the dark personal massager. Besides the pic is over a year old.

Could we get a picture of the 11 inch glow in the dark personal massager instead?

This is just a comment from personal experience, and may have no basis in reality, but ...
In my experience, I have found that long and short hair send different messages to women.

Long hair says "I am young, sexy and virile. However, I am fairly irresponsible and not looking for a commitment right now."

Short hair says "I am a litle straigt laced and uptight. I am trying to conform to get ahead. However, I am responsible and willing to commit."

Again, this is just the "vibe" I have had depending on my hair length, and observing my male friends in similar situations. Obviously the "Hair length = Responsibility/Commitment" thing is totally stereotypical, and not remotely based in reality. However, in the dating realm, that first impression matters a LOT.

There are plenty of women looking for both kinds of guys, long-haired flings, and short-haired partners. I'm sure there are some that don't care.

Take this advice with a grain of salt. YMMV.

Fine then. That's easy. Tell her to piss off, and you like your hair the way it is. Problem solved. Don't worry about it unless you've got a vocal majority (or a very authoritative minority) complaining to you about it.

Seconded. I mean, if you're just asking for some kind of poll of "Hey, does short hair get more chicks?" that could have been asked without bringing the girl into it at all, and if you're trying to ask if YOU would look better with short hair ... we really need some kind of photo to base it on. Otherwise, what's the point of asking?

"So, hey, does short hair get more chicks?" I would've answered: "It depends." So there.

OK, I'll bite. What does no hair say?

Oh, and to Sigdel, how about asking a couple of friends whose opinions, honesty and sincerity you trust, if they think you'd look better with short hair, or whether it doesn't matter.

Hello, I am a guy with long blonde hair. It's about 6 inches down my shoulders. So it's fairly long for a guy these days. A girl I work with is always trying to get me to do something with it. You know, highlights and whatnot. I really don't care much for that kind of stuff, so I don't plan going through all the effort for something I don't care for. Last week this girl takes it a step further, she told me "it would be really sexy if you cut your hair" and "You would be waist deep in chicks if you did." Now, it's not like I don't take care of my hair. I keep it in good order. This is my question, is this true? Has this been what I what I've been doing wrong? Is all I needed to do is just cut my hair to my jaw line? Or is this just the opinion of some silly girl trying to make me into something she wants?

FYI i have had my hair long since I was 13 and I am 23 now.

Dude, mullets and Fabio looks are so 90's.

Trust me, there was a time when I wanted long hair to have a Highlander Adrian Paul ponytail look. Nowadays, I'm thinking of beating my hereditary baldness by shaving it bald.
