I guess, like all things in life, it depends who you ask.
It's a message board for goth girls, so unfortunately it's far from representative.
i don't know when hair grows and if mens hair grows faster or slower than womens
I'm a 36 yr. old mother of 4, in school for Vet. Tech, Betta splenden breeder. Not goth.
LOVE long haired men!!!
If you look at all the "most attractive hollywood stars"...they most usually have hair at least to the shoulder when they're the hottest. Brad Pitt, Mel Gibson, etc. all had long hair when they were voted most attractive.
Hi again, I disagree with what you say about Hollywood stars. For example, in a Brad Pitt fan site poll of favourite Brad hair styles, the shorter styles were found to be much preferred over the longer styles he wore in Legends of The Fall and Interview With A Vampire.

Both Pitt and Cruise currently have longer hairstyles, but the reason they tend to wear longer hair is that it allows for a more flexible range of hairstyles for their next film role.
I'm trying to grow longish hair myself but I sense that women generally do not like long hair on guys. Of course there are exceptions, like yourself. I hope that the women who prefer long hair don't hesitate to make that clear!

You can't come to conclusions based on that pole. On various fish boards we sometimes discuss men, and I always bring up Brad, among others. Most women prefer him with his longer hair as in "Legends of the Fall", and find that to be their favorite movie with him in it.
It doesn't say who the people who were polled are, their ages or where they're from. I guarantee if I went to other boards and had people go there and post their likes, the percentages would change. And these would be boards that didn't concern hair. It could also be that pic. There are much nicer pics online that they could've used with him with long hair. They chose one of him that is dark, with him dirty from removing his brother's heart. (Now consider how many times I've watched THAT movie!! LOL)
Nice to read comments like that!
Like someone else said it's a gothic website, definately not the type of people I wish to attract.
I posted that link about a week ago. Nice to see it finally showed up. Though it may not be an accurate reflection of women's opinions in general, how many polls are? "Gothic" or not, those girls are still people, and I value their opinions.
For those that don't want to attract "gothic" people, get your hair cut and conform, so you can attract conformist girls, if that's what you want. There's many other types of people besides "goths" that like long hair.
