And those aren't real.

Are you talking about the earrings?

[JoeSixPack1]

With a little* effort, that woman could have her way with me.

The only "way" she'd have with you is "FAR AWAY" from you!!!!!!

Pig!

[rabidralph]

Theirs are pretty small.

[A_perfect_lady]

Yes, of course, the earrings. I have been assured that everything else about her is real. Although that still doesn't explain where some of those things are now...

[JoeSixPack1]

Have you read the rules???

[Age of Reason]

Think back to all the shows on television made popular in the 50's and 60's...all those traditional "moms" had short hair styles. It's a style, and the grannie generation still wears it.

To me that's long hair (albeit on the shorter side--but not short).

When I say short hair, I mean SHORT--like Mia Farrow after she cut-off her long hair while starring in Peyton Place.

And when I say traditional, I mean like 1900 not 1950--those chemical hairdo's of the 1950's and, worse, early 1960's are grotesque.

I'd argue that the 60's and 70's brought back long hair. In fact, many claimed long hair was revolutionary and freeing. Heck, I know plenty of older babyboomer/ex-hippie generation women who still wear long hair. It may be grey but it's long. I'd say they are the antithesis of your traditional woman/long hair thesis.

They wore their long hair wildly. See my post number 118. Long/short in context. Everything in context.

When I say short hair, this is what I'm talking about:

"Since long hair is so closely linked to femininity, Fabio-like locks might signal to women that a man is somehow less virile or capable than his buzz-cut brethren, Kline theorized. "

No. Very long hair on man usually signals that he does not have a job that amounts to anything.

I can read her lips, she's saying "POO - EE"!! LOL

[JoeSixPack1]

She might be sayin' POO-EE!!, but from this side of the screen it's YEEEHAAAAA!!!

<|:-)~~

PS. Don't tell m_f, he thinks she's saying PEE-UUU!!! (Cause he's a pig!) :-)~~

[potlatch]

Oh, be nice!! Laurie is just too much for you guys, and she is BLOND!! LOL!

[chance33_98]

[JoeSixPack1]

ARRGGHH ARRGGGHH ARRGGGHHH

LOL! Not with me. I'm a blond, but a pretty woman is pretty regardless of hair color. Lauri Dhue is very pretty - I heard she was getting married!!?

Fabio looks like a horse. Blech.

ROFL!

[SevenDaysInMay]

In all likelihood, breeding age maidens, of 12 to 14 or so, wore long as possible hair as a sign of health for marriage. Lice and mange were a turn off. A fuzz hair cut lebian anthropolgist told me so.

Long hair works for me when there is a working brain underneath, except I am a sucker for the nape of an otherwise bright lady of taste.

Sensible brownettes/redish highlights always warrant deep research as to their potential, butt blonds, the fine late summer white, cascading over shoulders from wind gusts...including Heidi Klum's dirty blond...

Never mind.
