A question for the ladies

[reveal]

Want some advice?
After having seen both pictures (your own and Impeesa's) I have reached the following conclusion:
Cut your hair. I'm not talking crew cut here, but you can get some pretty good looking mid-length style going on.
Replace the glasses, either with contacts or with more up to date ones, e.g. more rectangular ones. They'll fit your face better.
Get rid of that scraggly almost-a-beard on your chin. Face it, it's not going to get any better looking and it's none too pretty as it is. Plus you definately have the facial structure to go completely clean shaven.
I can almost promise you that if you do the above you'll get much more female attention.

You forgot: Don't dress up like Jesus. No one enjoys having their sacred figures mocked.

D'oh! Quite true. I also hear that modern day clothing is much more in fashion than some 2000 year old robes.

I don't know. It can be a real ice breaker sometimes.

Girl: Hi, what's your name?

You: I AM.

Gir: You are what?

You: No. I AM.

You: I AM.

Gir: You are what?

You: No. I AM.

Oh - it's true. Jesus is metal.

1) I have had mid-length hair before and I grew it out out of a desire not to cut it. That was three years ago. Every year or so I would trim it back. For a while it never even got passed my shoulders. Growing it out was an exploratory step that didn't require me to do anything special.
2) Glasses are staying. I HATE those modern/retro thick ass black glasses. Contact lenses are a no-no. Call me silly, but I have always had this thing about putting stuff in my eye. Besides, I dont have insurance. Unless your willing to pay for it...
3) That pic is a year old. For the most part I agree with you. I just don't have the genetics for a full beard. But what I got going on on the chin is about as much as my DNA will allow and still look decent. Now I just need to dye it like that guy from Anthrax...
4) It was Holloween, so we had the wear costumes at work. I chose Jesus. Blasphemy is fun! I was going to be a priest again but I wanted to avoid all the little boy jokes. I got The Passion ones instead.

Not to mention that it's not all that witty or funny.

Well, then I guess you were pretty dead-set on not cutting your hair to begin with. So ... Why did you ask?

I never said I was. If I do cut my hair, just for arguments sake, it would seem like I was conforming to what one girl wants me look like. Since I have nothing to gain from this girl, nor do I want anything she's offering, my choice has been made. But the pisser is that those mornings that I wake up and say to myself "Maybe I should cut my hair..." are going to be few and far between instead of monthly.

This next statement is to everybody. Although it does not seem like I am going to follow anybody's advice, I do appreciate it and have considered it. I thank you all for the response I have received so far. I am just looking for other POV's besides my own. It's really hard to see the women's view on what they find attractive when not a woman yourself.

I think it's a pretty cool costume, myself. And there are plenty of chicks out there that dig religious mockery--I married one myself! (She was raised Jehovah's Witness, and now--surprise, surprise--she doesn't think much of any organized religion).

I agree that clean-shaven and somewhat shorter hair would be a better look for you.

[Buttercup]

I agree.

As do I, and I even like long hair.
