It’s because guys are attracted to women who look as little like other guys as possible.

Okay but does it really matter if her glory is short, medium, or long, and why?
Let me know if you ever figure it out because I'd really like to know that. The only hair compliments I ever get from you-know-who are when my hair is long like it is right now.Xenophon wrote: ↑Fri Mar 29, 2024 3:24 amI'm curious if there isn't some chicken/egg thing going on here. Every bit of media I consumed as a young lad jammed my brain full of women that were otherwise desirable but also had long hair. Had I been raised in a world that kept everything else the same but all those women had short hair, would I likely not have different preferences?
I certainly appreciate short hair much more after a few stints of it on my SO. She wears it incredibly well. I think I still prefer it longer but how much of that is me and how much is conditioning, hard to say.
What is appealing about it? I have an answer of my own but I don't want to put words in someone else's device.
I could look at that bolded part as a safe answer you know. Still it's nice to see (unless you're lying) a guy consider what looks nice on any particular woman...if it suits her then you're good with it.Some Schmo wrote: ↑Fri Mar 29, 2024 1:28 pmI can't say I prefer long hair to short. I just watched Working Girl the other day, a movie from the late '80s, and at the beginning Melanie Griffith has one of those huge '80s hair styles where the blow dryer is the main feature (and it does not look good). Part way through the movie, in an effort to be perceived as more professional, she get's her hair cut, and for the rest of the movie she's stunning.
I knew this woman in college who had straight hair down to her knees. It was awful.
I don't think hair length matters nearly as much as the specific cut, and how that cut looks on that person. Just my opinion.

Their approaches include the suggestion at least some of our aesthetic appreciation is tied to exaggerating evolutionary advantages that create exaggerated responses. The term for it is peak shift. See here for an example:

My guess regarding long hair is it's a signal of health. Like facial symmetry it has subconscious associations with genetics.
There it is. A real guy answer. I don't suppose it's not just the hair you're considering there but yeah, what a stunner, right?But being a guy? Just a guy? It's not that big of a deal and many women with short hair are stunning regardless. I'd guess for some longer hair may even distract. I mean...
You're doing it again, honor.ETA: I do think thick hair is more likely to matter compared to thinning hair. Again, health signals.

This really knocks a man’s socks off.
