Only females should have long hair

Kahta

Only men should have short hair, and none should be covering one's ears. Women on the other hand, should have hair no shorter than 6 inches. The reason that having long hair has become the style, I believe is because of the feminists that want to switch the role of the genders, and make men ~15% of the population.

Is that supposed to be a serious comment? I don't know whether to laugh with you or at you.

I don't comply with the World According To Kahta! Nooooooo!
Seriously though, my hair covers my ears (I'm a guy btw), and it looks good. And I intend to grow it further. And I know plenty of girls with hair shorter than six inches, and they look good like that.

OoC: Marvellous idea! Let's have death squads patrolling around in armoured cars and if they see a man or a women with hair too long or short, let rip with the machine gun! Sorry, but females can have short hair and men can have long hair, if you think differently. And also, because some men had long hair in the old times(medieval era ect. ect.), did that mean they wanted to be women?

So was that a joke? I'm with the person who posted the second comment, should I be laughing at you or with you?

I haven't had a hair cut in almost a year and I don't plan on having one anytime in the near future. It isn't short but it isn't really long yet. And some chicks are really hot with short hair.

In one of his less-known stories, Bob Heinlein wrote about a period of political vacuum in a postwar America, wherein every 'long-haired man and short-haired woman' crawled out of the woodwork to help with reconstruction. The idea he was trying to get across, from his '40s point of view, was that these people were considered socially undesirable prior to the war, and even in the postwar era, were to be closely monitored to make certain they held no undue influence over the direction the US would take.

So, good enough to be put to work to the benefit of all, but not so good that they could avoid continued marginalization. Hey Kahta, maybe ou should read it, it's called 'The Day After Tomorrow' though I first read it under the title, 'Sixth Column'.

If I was a joke account, I wouldn't have over 5,500 posts dating back to when I first started playing NS. I have several puppets, the ones I have posted on the forum with are: Caelta and -New England-, but I do not use those, because I do not have a reason to hide my identity. I'm proud of my opinions, and I'm not afraid to hide them.

I'm not a troll either, I'd describe myself as socially conservative, but economically liberal.

Long hair, however you look at it, is just a trend, just how parted hair was in the 90's, and that flip thing was about 5 years ago. Its just a trend, and it will pass, except for when you see people older than say 30, they're doing it to make a statement. The current "trend" however, is nothing more than a socialist/communist plot to make it look "cool" to look poor. If you take a look at the other trends such as gangsterism, whorism, etc. The trend right now is to look, talk, and act poor.

I would love to see what asinine "proof" and "statistics" you have for your basis of this. Oh and do you need a tinfoil hat? I'm sure it's good enough to evade those Soviet class brain scanners.

By the way, I don't agree with him. I'm a guy and I'm trying to grow my hair long. Kahta, could you please clarify why long hair is a socialist plot? Are those no-good socialists trying to eat our babies again, or mind control us from their mothership in high orbit?

But arn't the North Koreans commies? If so, that would mean Kahta's attempt to make men cut their hair and women grow there hair out is the communist plot, not the other way around

No; Heinlein was economically conservative and socially libeal/libertarian (in other words, a libertarian)

Socially conservative (authoritarian) and economically liberal (authoritarian) . . . reminds me of good old Soviet Russia

Tis an interesting, kind of sociologycal view into the hairy people thing. But I for one, according to what I've seen, long hair is a common attributte in teens, and not so much in young addults (I'd say 30/70 in young addults). People usually cuts their hair when their face begins to grow old, or maybe not. Others cut their hair because their job demands them to. There are plenty of possibilities but I see far from now, a time when socieity's full of hairy males.

A trend (to say this you'd have to ignore almost every other society in history besides American)? A socialist/communist plot?

Oh my.

So uh...did Jesus have long hair (some have said his hair was short, but back in Christ's time the accepted length for "short" hair was the shoulder, while "long" hair was at the small of the back)? What about Samson?

Trollbait.

Hair length... doesn't really have a lot to do with anything. I had a buzz cut for three years around age eleven (shortest I had it was a one on the sides and back, two on top if that means anything to anyone...). Why? I have absolutely no idea. I also have no idea why I suddenly stopped getting it cut and it has now grown down to the small of my back. Female hear, by the way.

Hair-length really has little to do with gender. You do what you want with it, and you don't have to have a reason, anymore than you need a reason to wear black socks or white socks.

Well, I think men and women have the right to make themselves look anyway they want to...without being accused of aiding the insidious (blank) plot.

I actually find shorter hair on girls to be quite attractive, not to say that long, flowing hair isn't sexy in its own right.

As I guy, long hair doesn't work for me personally, but it seems to be working for my younger brother.

While I agree that certain hair styles look bad on certain genders(in my opinion, of course) everyone has a right to a hair style. Of course, if you are a hippie with long hair I'll probably point you out on the street and laugh to myself and/or to people nearby, but it's not like I'll pull out a shotgun and kill ye.

Yes, its a trend. Shortish hair is the proper way, long hair is only popular with rebels from society. Most teens these day do it because its the style. To correct my earlier point, I have no problem with long hair on people who are trying to make a statement, just those that are doing it for stlye.

Thats because no one had the money to keep their hair long. Jesus was no exception.

I personally think that men look better with short hair, but not always army recruit short. Conversely, I believe that most women look better with long hair, although on the 'NS player pics' thread I did see some pictures of women who looked good with really short hair. (i.e Prosophia)

I certainly don't think that any agency of government or church should be allowed to regulate who can wear what hairstyle. That smacks of Orwellianism.

When I was at college (I was a civilian at a military college, we had an integrated military-civilian campus) I started off with really long hair but some guy quoted Paul (from the Bible) at me and said it wasn't right for me to wear long hair, so I thought about it a while and decided to go with conformity (i.e. have it cut off.) Which made me very popular with the military side of the campus. Nowadays I generally keep it shorter anyways so I can look professional when job hunting or working with my business associates.

Also take into account that there are some jobs that are dangerous to do with long hair, and leglislating that someone has to wear longer hair would effectively bar them from that job, a major civil rights violation in my book.

This is probably a 'dead thread' from it's inception, but I thought I'd mention these things.

I don't aggree - people should be allowed to have whatever length hair they like. The variety is a good thing and sometimes people enjoy following trends or prefer to have shorter/longer hair just for the sake of it.

although i don't agree with forcing hairstyles on people (not that i've actually read a post by the original posters claiming this) i think the comment has some merit. some people just have their hair because it's fashion; whereas some really do wish to reverse gender roles etc. if this is ever prooven to be a socail disease then i would support these people being helped (however minority like they are)
