Like i know if i were to cut it they'd be the first ones to like throw a party and be like 'Oh my god, finally!! yess!! wheew so glad it's over' even if i felt like utter shit.

But years later they don't comment much on it anymore, it's more like occasional pressure concealed as fake concern. I'm very aware that my family remains mentally opposed to it and were really hurtful during the early stages were I was in the awkward phase so that sucked big time. In my longhair journey I've gotten compliments, stares, insults, passive-aggresive comments, sarcastic whistles by homophobes, and questions. Long hair on males is uncommon around me so it seems to draw stronger reactions from random people of either sex. So I think the situation is that there is a vocal minority of women who complain, but most women don’t judge a book by it’s cover. But you know what’s interesting to me is when I walk into a room with my hair in a ponytail and my earrings, a lot more women are checking me out. I’ve also heard A LOT of hate from women for man buns. A lot more than the ones who said they liked it. I heard a lot of women throughout my life say they didn’t like long hair on men. Up until recently I have always had short hair. Tell them one of their physical feature doesn’t confirm with your views. I think people feel more inclined to make judgemental comments to younger people tho. So I don’t hear much negative feedback from anyone.

Cuz y’know, dudes don’t care about it.Įdit 2: I’m a 49yo dude. Men haven’t said anything negative to me, and rarely is it a topic. They’ve been very forthcoming with haircare tips. Other than that one rude lady, I’ve had a lot of supportive comments from many women. Fortunately for her, she kept her mouth shut. I saw her notice the piercings and she clearly didn’t approve. If she spreads more unsolicited bs my way, I am going to give her an earful.Įdit: I got my ears pierced recently. I don’t even bother to be friendly with her anymore. She said I didn’t look good with long hair. I’ve had one woman (an acquaintance) tell me I should cut my hair short.
