this is from May of last year so it's a bit longer. It's more small of my back than down to my rear end, really. I'm also about 25 pounds lighter.

I don't use a curling iron, that's just what my hair does when it gets to that length. I can't do anything with it at all when it's short. It looks terrible and sticks out in random directions because of the curling, but because of how loose my curls are they don't actually form into curls until they get to my shoulder.

edit: btw, i work in an office environment for an oil and gas company, right down the hall from our CEO. I keep it braided at work. Has had no impact on my professional prospects whatsoever. Tear down patriarchal societal expectations of what kind of hair you're allowed to have, they're pointless and stupid and it negatively impacts everyone in some way or another.

Long hair works on a man if you're a pro wrestler or in a metal band. There are no other exceptions, and even in those cases it actively decreases the attractiveness of the person

You forgot displaced 18th century Ronin warrior that was zapped forward in time by an evil sorcerer. Otherwise, yeah. Pretty complete list there.

Racist. Native american dudes can wear their hair long too. Doesn't even matter if it looks good or not, can't dis it or you're racist.

Tatanka did not have long hair.

Yeah, I'm sure that dude who looks like Comic Book Guy from The Simpsons gets a lot of attention from 'bros'. After all, hair is the first think men notice in a woman.

The best case scenario here is that they laugh and call him a girl behind his back, and then sarcastically overreact when he turns around.

Male pattern baldness, right?

You're overthinking this, at least in that random wolf-whistlers tend to do so at anything that looks remotely female.

How much of a shrimp does a man have to be to be mistaken for a woman just based on the length of his hair? Alternately, how much of a misshapen blob that people have to ascertain his gender using contextual clues like length of hair.

Making fun of a dude for oversharing about his gross hair and hot takes thereof wasn't an invitation to do the same, just FYI.

I know a guy who had long hair and had somebody yell "hey, baby, how much for a blowjob?" at him from a car window. They sped off when he turned and said "what?!" Dude has a super deep voice, too.

Nah you man up and shave that poo poo and keep loving rocking instead of looking like a walking joke. Devon Townsend did it.

Looking at you David Lee Roth.

My couches burn, split upon an outdoor pyre. Amazon is silent. I go to enjoy a movie and then I realize

I have no couch to sit on.

I am free but at what cost.

Bald is an acceptably metal hairstyle. Dallas Toler-Wade (formerly of Nile) shaved his head after a while.

Metal Council Convenes To Discuss 'Metal Hand Sign' Abuse posted:

The Supreme Metal Council has experienced deep ideological rifts in the past that have affected its ability to make strong decisions, most notably during the lengthy trial and eventual sentencing of Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich, who was indicted in 2004 on charges of cutting his hair, pussing out on Napster, and contributing to the original motion-picture soundtrack of Mission: Impossible 2.

As an American I always get a little culture shock in Sleeping Dogs. You drive on the other side of the road, there's pedestrian-only streets everywhere, shooting someone is considered proof you ARE'NT a cop.

Hot drat that's good.

Also I sometimes get jealous of you white boys being able to grow hair that falls down. The one year I let my hair just grow it looked like a head of dry, black broccoli. I've never known a true metal head bang.

Get a wig man. Metal enough for Angelo Batio is metal enough for you.

It's cute when normal healthy guys think catcallers target women they think are attractive instead of women they think are vulnerable. lovely dudes loooooove yelling at women they assume are ugly enough to have low self-esteem. Same lovely dudes are also extra terrified of The Gay, so when they yell at some frumpy longhair in sweatpants and then realize it's a guy, they panic like a hobo just spat blood in their eye.

Meanwhile I remain convinced that dudes who grow their hair long just wish they could grow beards instead.
