Why are women with super long hair more likely to be conservative and women with short hair liberal?

[esotericstory]

[Adrianna7868]

Because girls have traditionally had their hair longer than guys did hence why the conservatives do it, because they prefer the old way of thinking. More liberal women have the super short haircut as a way to "dismantle gender norms" and as long hair is associated with femininity, more liberal women want to cut their hair short to combat this.

Because conservative usually are traditional and traditional prefer long hair but i know liberal with long hair and conservative with short

^^^^^THIS^^^^^

[ShadowofRegret]

Good answer.😉

[btbc92]

Best answer. I was about to say the same thing. Most women with short hair wouldn't give a rats behind about you. Though, not all short-haired women are like that. I say is about attitude, culture and value systems.

Cutting your hair short is considered a sign of liberation. So a lot more liberal women are into it. I see a lot of people on here saying it's just a stereotype. Statistically this holds a lot of truth though. Remember, stereotypes are a generalized observation. So they usually are or were more or less true at some point.

[AlexanderBrunnrgaard]

Don't think that is the case. But should it be in any one place or over a larger area of some degree, it might be because long hair is the more conservative look for women to look feminine, and really short hair is the most basic act of "revolt".

[esotericstory]

Thats a good explanation.

[lforman007]

I have no idea but somehow it's true? (I have long hair and I'm a conservative)

[evendiscotaken]

I don't think they are? I used to have very long hair, then very short hair, and now I want it longer again. Don't feel like I was/am mote conservative or liberal in different periods of time that somehow matches my hairstyle decisions

Traditionally, women would have long hair.

liberals always want to be "progressive" so they cut it short to go against tradition. They want to be seen as rebels or "against the patriarchy" so they go against what was normal before.

Conservatives don't mind so usually choose what they want and because of tradition that's usually more long and straight.

[bamesjond0069]

Because conservatives believe in traditional values such as women ought to be feminine and that long hair is feminine. Liberals do not believe as much in traditional values so that women can be masculine if they want and they probably also disagree if long hair is feminine too since they are confused if a woman can have a penis. lol

[thegirlfromthething]

Maybe it’s different where you live, but from what I’ve seen conservative women often have mid-length hair and liberal women have a lot of variation in length. It can be anywhere from really long to really short.

[thegirlfromthething]

And Ellen isn’t a great example for this. She’s not just liberal, she’s a lesbian and they usually have short hair.

[gaygod_19]

because having short hair means breaking society''s gender norms and roles, basically a way to say they refuse to look like what society, religion, culture, race determine as beautiful.

[esotericstory]

That makes no sense.

[gaygod_19]

yea it does mate.

[esotericstory]

Beauty is not even determined by society.

[Liam_Hayden]

Long hair is thought of as more traditionally feminine. Those who are traditional tend to be more conservative. Not a hard and fast rule, but seems generally true.

[Browneye57]

Cuz long hair is a woman's sensuality. Liberals and feminists hate men, so they cut their hair off to BE like them cuz deep down they loathe themselves, and everything around them. Just ask them!

[Thatsamazing]

Uh... they aren't. Hair length has nothing to do with that. And political labels are meaningless garbage.

[esotericstory]

Thats not true, politics is the affairs the people.

[Thatsamazing]

... You didn't see what I said. I said political labels are worthless garbage. Labels. Labels such as "conservative" and "liberal." They don't mean anything. They tell you nothing about any person's ability to provide reason, logic, and evidence in order to solve complex problems facing society.

[esotericstory]

Conservatives find that caution is more important than progress, while liberals find that progress is more important than caution, its not that hard to understand.

[Thatsamazing]

... Uh, no. That isn't correct at all and has nothing to do with anything. What are you talking about. You just made that up.

[Scarecrow13]

I think the same can be said if hair color, dyed unnatural colors tend to be more liberal. I do think it has to do with tradition.

[alexd666]

I don't know that they are but I suppose long hair is considered traditional for women so if somebody is conservative they may be more likely to adhere to traditional standards.

[BreakingSound]

I love questions like this.

The answer is always “blocked for being deliberately obtuse”.

[Grond21]

Huh, that actually would make sense. As an average. Because conservative woman are more likely to aim for classic feminine ideals.

[TheFlak38]

Because liberal women have daddy issues and try to be ugly so that no man can get horny by them.

[whitehide]

And there's my daily dose of bullshit. Why do you think that?

[esotericstory]

Because of idealism.

[whitehide]

So it's just a random statement?
I've found that usually, young women have long hair and older women have short hair, might be wrong, it's just my perception on it.

[esotericstory]

Conservative women are more likely to have long hair as an ideal while liberals dont have much ideals, they consider ideals to be stereotypes.

[name_is_eric]

The most conservative women I've met had shoulder length hair, that is considered short weirdly enough.
Peculiar hypothesis.

[Sweatyotterr]

Liberal women think its eMpOwErInG to cut their hair its dumb

[Nadim171]

Because feminists try to behave and look like men...
And can't deal with the fact that men and women aren't the same.

[SketchForger]

It's the same reason I have long hair.

I don't care.

[SuccessfulHornDog]

That's not a good close up of Ellen. The girl in the second pic has a nice caboose
