It seems like everyone is growing their hair long. For a short hair lover this is killing me. How long do you think this trend will last? The only thing that consoles me is that when the trend goes back to short, there should be some good hair whacking. I just don't know how long I can last.

Fashion goes in cycles. It'll probably swing around again in a few months, maybe a year. *shrugs* No big deal, really.

Everone? Hardly.
And, woah... don't have a cow. You seem to be quite agitated by the choices of others. Please read (and consider responding to) the "Your Two Cents" thread in this board.
Isn't your S.O. into pleasing your hair desires? And if so, then why do you care what anybody else is doing to their hair?
I notice lots of people keeping their hair short -- most men, and most old (60+) women (and quite a few who are younger, too). Isn't that enough short hair for you? I mean seriously, take a look around you at a representative cross-section of people.... and keep in mind that hair can grow to the waist, knees and beyond (witness, myself)... and you complain about how much long hair there is? Imagine if everybody, I mean every person, had knee-length hair. Then, I think it would certainly be safe to say that "everybody has long hair." We (in western societies) are a far, far, far ways away from everbody wearing long hair, a condition you seem to intimate that we're heading for. And even if it did, would that be a bad thing? To you, of course, but I mean, would it be bad for humanity? No.

I guess if you read the previous post of mine as an absolute, then I would be mistaken. Unfortunately, email lends itself to missing the tongue in cheek type of talk, among other less than precise statements. I do think MORE people are wearing their hair long than a time before that I noticed. Is it really going to kill me? No (hopefully not at least) But as a person who generally enjoys women with short hair (of all ages-or ages that I notice) it is a bit of disappointment. I will say that I will find some women with long hair attractive (maybe 10%) so I will take some with long hair - just not that many :)
