Have you ever heard the phrase, "women look so much better with long hair," or that "having short hair makes women look less feminine?" My all-time favorite comment about women with short hair is, "she has short hair so she must be a lesbian." This needs to stop now. Women need to stop being shamed for having short hair.
First of all I would like to state that a women's hair length does not reveal their sexual preference. I have short hair so does that make me a lesbian? No. As a matter of fact I have a boyfriend. Where do people even come up with these crazy assumptions that short hair apparently means you're gay? If this is the case then can someone please tell me what my hazel eyes signify about my life?
Not only do people associate women with short hair as being lesbians, they are also viewed as less feminine. Hair has nothing to do with your gender. I have boobs and a vagina. That is what defines my gender. My hair should not identify my gender. I have short hair and I am as girly as it gets. I wear dresses, high heels, and occasionally put on some lip stick. So please stop saying I am not feminine.
I find it funny that some people think that women with short hair are all lesbians and less feminine. Those phrase amuse me but this phrase hits me hard. "Women with longer hair are prettier and better." I would like you to know that women with short hair are just as pretty. Just look at Rhianna, Emma Watson, and Liv Tyler. Are you saying that all of these gorgeous women are not pretty because they have short hair?
The style of your hair isn't about what people like and prefer. It's about you and how you feel. Your hair style is supposed to make you feel good about yourself and highlight who you are. I am myself and short hair is what brings out the best in me. I just look better with short hair rather than long. It works for me. Does that mean that short hair is for everyone and vice versus? No, short hair is not for everyone, and neither is long hair. It's quite simple, your hair style is what's best for you.
Short hair is like a personality in itself. It's crazy and spontaneous and wild sometimes. It can also be calm and tamed. It is light and fluffy. My hair brings out the best in my personality.
This shaming women with short hair has to end. My short hair is a part of me. When you shame on my hair you are throwing my whole self to the ground. Let's start letting people be themselves and look like their best selves. Never forget that I have short hair, I am feminine, I am happy and most importantly, I am beautiful.
