4/365: The Wrong Girl, The Wrong Kind
Originally uploaded by D to the Alexin 1988, Joan Julliet Buck wrote an article about short haired women.
Aside from the idea that the article aims to empower women, the article reflects the characters of women and men regarding short-hair.
From the article:
Short hair makes others think you have good bones, determination, and an agenda. The shape of your skull is commented on, so are its contents. They can pick you out in a crowd, and you can be recognized from behind, which can be good or bad. But your face is no longer a flat screen surrounded by a curtain: the world sees you in three dimensions.
I am one of those females who opt for a shorter 'do. I always like my hair shorter because it tells the world that I do not want to be confined to their standard of beautiful. But people do tell me I am prettier with longer hair, but I do not like to be a pretty girl, necessarily.
But for me, within a year, my hair grows longer and faster than most other people. Variety is an option for this trait.
However, because I want to be able to say that at least once in my life, I have had longer hair--or long hair, I plan to grow it longer to do what JR did. Let's see. I hope I don't nitpick too much about it.
