Do you have a source or a link that states that? Where did you hear that?

 

Damn, I'll have to fish it out from somewhere. Give me a minute.

I think Alexander Hamilton was sexy though. I would have done him.

 

He's a distant uncle of mine, back quite a few generations. He had a rather unique shape to his mouth, especially the upper lip, which has very obviously been handed down to my father, my uncle and me, as well as my sons.

 

Interesting enough, the mixed-race abolitionist William Hamilton who claimed to be Alexander's son, or one of them (he had 10 children with his wife), is buried here in the old town cemetary. And here I thought I had no connection to this place.

 

I won't comment on the "doing" part.

Ip, I don't know..I was never into that look even in the 80's. I like a more clean cut looking man.

 

Okay well maybe not then. :laugh:

I like shoulder length beyond mostly. Very few women look good with short hair IMO.

 

I have a hair cut you can set your watch by!

(Which is a term I never understood. If anyone can tell me who said this I would be impressed! (I know btw))

About why men like long hair on women: I'll be pedantic and attribute it to the simple theory of natural selection. The natural mating instinct is to pick the healthiest, most fertile-looking partner.

 

The woman with healthy (and therefore long, in the old days) hair, indicates that her hormones (estrogen in particular) are at a healthy level. Which in turn indicates the ability to reproduce.

you look good with long hair, but you would look really stunning with short hair i think

I'm sure there are plenty of articles explaning it in detail, but I'm taking the quick and easy route and giving you this article -

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_attractiveness

 

Scroll down to the part where "Determinants of female attractiveness". Healthy hair is mentioned as part of what makes a female attractive.

 

The article cites this fact from a work by David Buss - The Evolution of Desire.

 

I think it's draws from Darwin's theory of sexual selection.

I look better with shorter hair. Longer hair makes me look younger and less attractive. But not when I have it all done up with curls and such.

Aww thanks..:) . You think so?

 

Although I'm a little iffy about cutting it too short, since I'm not a very tall / big person. I'll end up looking like an elf. :laugh:

Well, isn't that interesting? Hmmm, this explains a lot.;)

Long hair is better:)

 

Ahahhahaha.

 

Thanks. ;)

 

 

What a dilemma, though. Long or short?

Short hair can look good on women, especially if she has nice eyes

 

You're just saying this because you want a woman who looks like a man trying to look like a woman, isn't it?

Sinead O'Connor looked pretty good. So did that girl in the first Star Trek movie.

Oh come on Touche. :laugh:

 

You'll look good with short hair too. ;):laugh: So the above assumption is negated.

Natalie Portman looks good anyway, with or without hair.

 

I guess it depends on the person's facial features, overall. The more symmetrical the better. And the shape of the head is important too, if she's going for a crew cut / bald.

This is kind of sad, I have long (mid back) thick naturaly wavy/curly hair which takes a lot of maintenance. So I actully have to plan my day around washing my hair. Since it's curly I only wash it 2-3 a week and I usually straighten it. It takes 7 hours to air dry so I have to wash it a night usually. So depending on what I am doing I have actually had to not make plans with people so I could wash my hair.

 

Sometimes I have had enough and I will let my hair go curly and not brush it for two to three days, haha. I do get compliments on it through. I am at least glad it's versitle.
