Usually i dont have long hair so i guess its just hitting like a truck lately how femininely long hair is viewed, how much its used to identify women, how shallowly many people expect women To have long hair

And wowza does it make me realize 1 why my mom must've internally felt such a great need to make me grow my hair 2 makes me immediately wanna chop it the fuck off, because the people most pleased with long hair are the people id like to stay away from me 3 kind of irksome cause im growing my hair out, for the first time by choice in like 2 fucking decades, because i wanted cool long hair like guys in shows i admire

#rant #my hair woes #i mean 1 feel free to ignore #but also 2 just heard a dude yesterday APPAULED his girlfriend cut their hair #and like. as a bisexual nonbinary who for 90% of my life has had shorter hair than my chin #i hope a person like that NEVER dates me. so far im life my hairs been so short it naturally kept such ppl away from dating me #and cool ppl who also liked me with short hair were rhe ones liking me #and one video essayist on youtube recently did a deep dive into why society in general tends to turn on women who cut their hair off #which. makes me want zero fucking hair all the more. i do not wanna be read as woman in the first place #but my face just kinda prevents that. i used to wear a binder and dress ways i liked less and had 1 inch of hair #and was still constantly misgendered so i figured fuck it ill just wear lolita dresses and big tshirts with no bra and do whatever #since strangers would treat me the same anyway.#but like. goddamn. last time my hair was longer than this i was in college but i was so like sporty butch bisexual ripped off sleeve tshirts #i think no weirdo like. liked me for my hair or perceived femininity thank goodness #just kinda yikes yikes yikes on all the valuing of people perceived as women based on their hair like...#as transphobia ramps up also General intolerance of gender nonconformity ramps up #as in attacks toward non makeup wearer women non shaver women short haired women long haired men makeup wearing men #an obvious thing but. god i hate the general trends of fucking society in their fucking conservative swing into #conservative moral panic and sexism and racism and transphobia and like its always there but theres really a pendulun swing into like #decades backward lately #for the past 10 years tbh...
