I think girls should be hairless except for the places mentioned...i dont think it matters with guys...unless they are thin, have black hair and pale skin, piercing grey or blue eyes...i know i know, like a vampire. and they look young. then they remind me of a girl with beauty and i think they should be hairless so i can just stare all over them, touch and feel....ok im becoming flushed.....must stop. 000523

lola it's time to get my hair cut. it's always the same- i cut it chin length and let it grow for a 9 mos before i cut it again. i can't seem to think of anything else to do with it, but this time i think i will cut it a little shorter and dye it some hue of red. since i'm getting rid of my red sweatshirt with the butterfly patch in favor of something less conspicuous. 000527

Brad I got mine cut again today. It's really short all over. I remember in high school when i used to have long hair all the girls loved it. But i grew to hate it... when you're as busy a guy as me, long hair isnt conducive to efficiency; it tends to get in the way. Also, it's hot. Also, it makes me look more like a rock n roller than a jazz musician, a visual miscommunication i do NOT care to perpetrate. :) 000527

The Schleiffen Man Hair is a fleeting commodity I know will leave me someday. Everyone in my family is bald, so there's no escaping the barber known as Mother Nature. So I grew mine long for the hell of it. Since I was 14, I let my hair flow. Down past the shoulders at one point. I settled at shoulder-length for a happy medium of length. It was always hot during the summer. So when I tired of it the Summer of my 19th year, I let it go. My ex (for now) keeps the ponytail in a ziploc bag in one of her scrap books. I have pictures to prove that I once had hair. But now I look like Vincent D'onofrio from Full Metal Jacket. Sleep sweet children. 000527

against the undeclared police action that was sending everyone of my generation back home in bodybags or wheelchairs.Then it was a sign you were cool enough to score some dope or share a joint with.eventually as all things do it diffused through the culture to the point that it meant nothing for certain. all this was sumed up by Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention, when they sang."Who cares if hair is long or grey or partly bald we know that hair ain't where it's at.

demitria monde thraam i am so attracted to long hair on guys it is beyond "preference"; it even, I believe, is way beyond "fetish" at this point and the only proper descriptor is "paraphilia".

It may be because when I was little I was very weird and the only people who treated me like I belonged were hippie types.

But now it's not the culture thing at all, or at least, as much.

it's the presence. A guy with long hair leaves a trail of motion when he moves his face. A wave of himself. It's a flag, it's a flame around the face, it's a lion's mane, a stallion's mane, all those images come to mind but

when i look at a guy with deliberately shortened hair
i think
work slave
i think
it just sits there
on his head like a lump of meatloaf
that doesn't move when air touches it

plus
it just looks so normal
like all the movie actor "studs"]
it looks overmasculinized
which to me communicates no
real masculinity

i only want to fuck guys with long hair.
my boyfriend, now, i'd do him no matter what, because he's got
invisible (to all but me) neuralnets
hanging down his face
hanging down to his shoulders so
if the actual hair disappeared
(neither of us want it to)
there'd be that.

but on anyone else:
no
it has to be long enough to move
or i don't feel the sex thing

it wasn't intended to be...
this superficiality of mine
but i kinda think it's justice
since virtually no one wants to have sex
with a girl who's as fat as I am

i guess i feel some sort of
silly stupid pleasure
in being able to say
well, dude, i guess it's mutual then
because i'm a fat ugly cow
and you're a shredhead

ps: guys, you can put hair back in a rubberband when it gets hot and annoying.

it's worth it to keep it
i'm not the only chick who loves it
just more
extreme about it is all.

People see my hair
say "beware!"
and go off in a tear
i say "No Fair!"
but then they're none aware
nor are they debonair

at a fair
to use as a spare
did i care?
au contraire!
spare hair is fair
in fact
hair can be rare
-Fred Astaire got no hair
-Nor does a chair
-and where is the hair
on a chocolate eclair?
-Nowhere, mon frere
so be fair with your hair
be a bear with your hair
wear it to there
-or to There!
-or to THERE!! if you dare.

now that i've shared
this affair of the hair
i think i'll repair
to my lair
and use Nair

lizardqueen What exotic hair..like spun gold."
He had whispered it to me in his stingy alcoholic breath.
Now,only 2 days later I studied it in the mirror, pulling it apart, straightening out the waves with a downward stroke of my hands, watching the recoil with the release of my fingertips. It hung thick with golden streaks on-top of tiny waves.

I locked the door and grabbed my scissors. I reached behind my head, pulling my hair back with one hand and grasping it like an ice cream cone. I squeezed the scissors through my hair, chop by squeaking chop. The more hair I cut, the faster I wanted it gone. I couldnt stop until it looked disgusting.

The bathroom counter was littered with clomps and strands of my hair. Some of it had stuck to the wet parts of the sink. It looked beautiful so far away from my face, and my neck felt bare and naked in the back.
My vision began to blur and it became increasingly difficult to breathe. I slid down to the tile floor with my back against the wall. I tried to regain my breath but i was too upset, too dizzy, too exhausted. My hands examined the remaining hair i had left behind. A choppy, uneven, ugly haircut. It was perfect this way.My fingers ran around to the back of my head all too easily. It was perfect this way.

It's fun to watch people stare at me, an 18 year old guy with 3 foot long hair. It's even better when women ask, "My God! How did you get those curls?" or just, "What do you do to it?"
My answer is a triumphant, "Absolutly nothing." Followed up by only a big grin.

ClairE (from 12/19/00, in response to girls' negative attitudes to body hair and removal procedures):
My hair grows almost everywhere on my body, but in very small quantity. In fact, I have such a lack of hair that upon meeting a pen-pal for the first time, she kept asking "Do you have pubes?". Because I am so fortunate to not have to worry too much about hair removal, I don't even think about the topic too much. I shave my armpits whenever I'm going out and wearing a sleeveless top (because I can understand that being unattractive, even though it's no big deal). My legs are not very hairy and I take pride in not shaving them in this hair-hating world. Not to say that I NEVER shave them--I shave my legs when I'm going out somewhere where I'm dressing up (which is unusual), and sometimes just because I like the way my legs feel afterwards (extremely smooth--worth the investment of time once in a while). My boyfriend complains when I don't shave my legs, but he doesn't actually mind (I don't see how he possibly could, because my hair is almost non-existent and not prickly besides). He's just teasing. He always says he wants me to shave my pubic hair, but it's just the right amount. Too much of a hassle. He doesn't think it's disgusting or anything--he is just interested in what it would be like. (He's shaved his legs, but that's his own story!)
The hair on my head is very nice. I am half Filipino and half white, so my hair is nice and long and black, and not too coarse. I love long hair and can't stand having it short. I have nice eyebrows, even though if you look closely it is a unibrow. One of my friends once told me I should pluck it, but if you ask me she was either reflecting her own insecurities, or was just trying to help me out with her own beauty tips. I love the way I look--I never wear makeup and only shave when I want to. I do have one confession to make, though--hair grows (lightly) on my foot and toes, and even though it is not gross, I shave it whenever I shave my legs, to make that concession to the beauty standards of the day.
One question: what does everyone think about the double standard between men and women? If anyone should shave their armpits, it's men! Robin Quivers once pointed out, how can deodorant possibly work if your armpit is completely covered in hair? I don't think anybody should HAVE to shave. But people usually keep their head of hair trimmed, washed, and otherwise neat. Shouldn't that courtesy be extended to all body hair?
I just want to say to all of you who are manipulating your bodies to please someone else: you don't have to! For one moment, close your eyes and forget what everyone else thinks--THINK ABOUT WHAT you LIKE TO DO WITH YOUR BODY. Then act accordingly.
If you don't like body hair, that's your opinion. But you shouldn't rag on others. Speaking of which, we would all appreciate if no one uses the board for a personal fight.
I hope I haven't left out any other hair. I could go on for a lot longer...
011205
...
ClairE Nowadays, I just don't. Except I shaved my armpits a little while ago 'cause I dressed up for a RHPS party.

Dude, I fucking love my hair. I always get complimented on it.

It's my security blanket. I got it cut "short" once (bottom of my shoulder blades), and hated it. I can't imagine cutting it again.

Some people can't stand to have long hair. I can't stand to have short.

Like I said, I could just go on and on.

birdmad i cut my hair last week (fairly short, there are still visible patches of the red dyed section on top) and am toying with the concept of a beard (more than just my usual goatee - or i may ditch the goatee and grow some really funky sideburns)

"Your hair is so thick and straight, it's beautiful. You look nothing like your sister, her hair is so curly. Do you wish you had her hair?"

I never liked to answer them. I felt like I was at the doctor.

celestias shadow I love my hair. It's beautiful. It's this weird dark auburn color with some red highlights. It turns bright red in the sunlight. When I was little, women used to stop me and my mother on the street and talk about what gorgeous hair I had. I used to hate that. Hearing something for 8 years gets OLD, no matter what it is. Luckily nobody says it to me anymore.

This isn't meant in a conceited way. I swear. I'm sorry if it sounded that way. But my hair is my favorite thing about myself. Might I add, my favorite thing on a VERY short list. So, I had to take a moment to say this. I truly love my hair. It's one of the only things I wouldn't change about myself.

Chelle I looked into the mirror today and noticed a longish hair sticking to my forehead. Assuming it belonged to one of my cats (their hair is everywhere, I swear, I sweep the floor in the morning and there are little "kitties" running around my floor by night.) Anyway, assuming that it belonged to them, I just went to brush it away and discovered that it wouldn't. It was attached to my head. I just wonder what made that particular hair continue to grow while all the other hairs around it stopped so soon. But answers just lead to more questions I suppose. 040118

white_wave my hair is naturally curly. but I straighten it sometimes. it's kind of funny after I get a haircut, then I straighten it. it looks alot longer than it was before I cut it when it was curly. So then if I let it go curly after about a week, people say "Did you just get your hair cut?". No it's been cut for a week, hadn't you noticed? I can shrink or grow my hair, almost magically. It varies by about 3 inches. 040326

emmi it's long now, seems like it grew halfway down my back overnight. some people say it's red, others strawberry blonde, others orange and i say better orange than banana. i get ringlets in humid weather, usually i am just a little wavy. my hair is very soft and i like when people touch it. i've only recently learned to love my hair. 040707
...
LessonsFromAngels I had a boyfriend once who told me that my hair looks better down. When I used to wear my hair down all the time, people told me it looked nice when I put it up. now that I often wear it up to get it out of my way, people wish I would wear it down.

I also find that the longer it gets, the more it is loved. People used to call my hair the color of fire. I guess I pretty much grew out of that, as now it is naturally a darker red and generally more appreciated. At this very moment my hair is that firey orange, containing bleach from when I attempted to dye it purple. Only the ends really took. All the same, it didn't matter because Cade, Amanda and I had fun that night, squirting purple goo all around the shower and singing along to the Spice Girls.

It does not necessarily matter whether your intent is fulfilled, as long as the outcome is that of joy.
