is there really? or is this "thin line" only based on a stereotypical view on masculinity & homosexuality. because it seems "metrosexual" is being linked with homosexuality because they share the same so-called behaviours people stereotype gays as having (e.g - taking an interest in appearance beyond which society deems "normal" for a man). i'm not saying there is no truth in the fact that they are eccentric gay men but in reality there are many gay men that would appear like a typically straight man and vice versa. personally, i think society's construction of homogenised masculinity can be dangerous and stifling for many men.

Generally, no. Thinking of an example - I liked Real's hair on ILNY but it looked feminine.

I would do longer maybe if it was lox. I have seen that look nice on a men.
 
Yes. I have before. I *heart* locs on men. :lick: The guy I used to date grew them to waist length. He always had them pulled back neatly. There's nothing like some really neat locs. I don't dig pretty boys, though. I also like big crazy afros, but I've only seen a few men who can really pull that look off.
 
No.:nono:
I despise long hair on men period.
So far I just saw on man with locs I found attractive and he was a serious beefcake.
 
My first boyfriend had hair longer/healthier and shiner than mine and he used to tease me about it all the time. He kept it in braids most of the time, and he had it telaxed so that it was wavy and really really thick. It used to make me a bit insecure at first, but since I kept my hair in braids most of our relationship it didn't really matter too much. Now however, I couldn't date a man with long hair, not even longer than mine, just long hair on men is unattractive. I like a clean cut man, not that I think long hair makes them more feminine, but in my opinion, and its just my opinion, long hair on men to me is a sign of unseriousness; i just can't take a man with braids seriously.:nono:
 
Done it. I've had long-haired musician boyfriends.

If DH's had not been going bald and shaved off all his hair, he would have occasionally grown his hair long. He is really secure and isn't worried about other people's idea of masculinity.
 
I can't remember if I responded to this thread already or not...but I have no problem with it, especially if there is a possibility of us having kids together! :grin:

I'm secure with my hair and not threatened at all by a man having prettier hair than mine. I haven't seen too many men with hair longer than mine, but if I found him attractive and it was well-maintained, why not? It's just hair...and there are so many more important factors to consider. :yep:
 
I have dated a guy who had longer hair than me... we dated for about 3 years. I BC'ed and went natural about a year after we met and he loved my naps... it really wasn't an issue... at least not for me. I mean. he never said anything!!!

Then again just cuz it was longer does not mean its better looking. I always took care of our hair... I did his twists and many of my many hairstyles. It depends on you and how you rock it I guess...
 
In my opinion... no man over the age of 25 should still have long hair... UNLESS they're dreadlocked.
As mentioned before, they seem a bit feminine (on some men) PLUS I think long hair on men is some kind of attempt to cling onto their youth/boyhood. I say be confident in your MANhood and cut the hair.

So for that reason... I wouldn't date a man whose hair was longer than mine.
 
i actually have. twice:perplexed...they normally kept their hair in braids but once those braids came out i was embarassed. at that was the time my hair was badly damaged!

lately i've been finding guys with nice looking locs attractive....probably from being in Florida for 2 years cuz b4 I thought they were ugly. But i dont think I could be with someone who spends the same amount of time on their hair as I do...and reap more benefits.:nono:

Yes, the locs are taking over here aren't they? I'm from Chi-town originally and didn't like them at first, but they are growing on me. Still, I'm glad dh just has a regular fade. :rolleyes:
 
Long, pretty hair on my SO wouldn't bother me in the slightest, but he'd have to be really manly looking - no effeminate pretty boys for me.
 
nope! my man can not have longer hair than me. Not attracted to those types anyway. It would be a competition to for hair time and products. i don't think so.
 
My husband had longer hair than me (before we were married) and I was the one taking care of it! LOL, crazy, I know. But, I was a braid-wearing-addict (and lazy when it came to my own). Now, because of a job change he had to cut his hair off, and I found LHCF.

Now I wear the hair in this family!
 
No I don't want my man to have longer hair than me... I have locs but I still don't want my man to have locs, I prefer him to be clean cut or grown out but not too long... double standard but oh well.
 
I would in a heart beat. I love men with long hair. Love it. The exception being relaxed hair. I don't like relaxed hair on men. Or pressed and curled. Or flat ironed. Or permed. Basically, I don't find men in rollers the sexiness. And if he has dreds, they have to be neat.

I don't care what type it is as long as it's clean and not thin/fine. I'll take 1a to 4z. He can be neosoul, corporate, biker, whatever.

I will say that if this guy expects me to cornrow his hair, he is sadly mistaken. I can't do anything more complicated then flat twists and regular plaits.
 
Long hair on men is actually a weakness of mine. I've dated two men with better hair than mine. This was back when my hair was relaxed and I didn't know how to take care of it. The one had long straight hair, he taught me about minimizing heat and using protectant when you do use it.
 
At first, I was like,"Heck No! He's gonna hog all my mirror time" but looking at 'Real', I'm thinking, maybe he can give me some hair tips! :lachen:

Real,

These days my hair gets the attention
when its wild....not length

I was recently dating a writer with cropped hair..
who has on the back cover of his novel this dark brooding picture
of him with long hair
I was like ......WHY oh why did you cut it?

in the past I dated this gorgeous guy with wild Marley dred locs...o he was beautiful
and it was longer than mine....and a german hippie with long hair...
there were others~~~

but those two stand out..more because the dred guy...once when I was bare foot admonished me gently for being outside w/no shoes and it being germy in NYC..and offerred for me to stand on his boots while he held me.. I fell in love that night

and the other man..I posted about him before
he used to say in his german accent when I complained about my big behind...
I--I -I .L--oo-oo-oo-ve Yoo--urrrrr Ahhhhhhh-sss:lachen:
