I think that stereotypes are being judged here.  I am a classical trumpet
player who decided to grow out his hair, and I do look like a "rocker/stoner/
metal head ".  It is not that I am "lazy", I get it trimmed once a month for
split ends, etc.  I understand that this is all personal asthetics.

gymnastics; the odd hours that women's rowing, basketball and volleyball are

Thank God, finally SOMEBODY likes short hair. *Whew!* I was beginning to worry.

True!  I always liked long legs on a tall woman, and my first real
relationship was with a woman who was shorter and had a different
body shape.  I found her much more attractive after I had been
going out with her for awhile (maybe it's just patterning fostered
by orgasms :-)  That attraction to her body shape lasted after we'd
split up, though I still react pretty well to tall, leggy women.
Maybe it's less a shift than a widening of my appreciations in my
case.

>I'm still crazy about brunettes though.  Some things never change. :-)

Ya know the weird thing is that even if they think its wrong, I bet most
guys would at least be tempted by the allure of a pretty youngster (seems
to also be true for some male homosexuals and 14 year old boys). I
suspect that this "allure of youth" isn't something that attracts most
women. A 14 year old boy, no matter how pretty, would simply be of no 
sexual interest to me at all. So am I right ladies and gentlemen, is this 
really a gender difference?

But you see, Ross, Dawn is a discordian. Which means she don't say things
boring like 'Yes, I mind', she is required by ERIS to say something witty

I would imagine that Dawn saying 'Yes, I mind' is like a republican saying
'Here, have more welfare money' or a Canadian saying 'Gee, that looks like
fun, can I try?'.

	Absolutely correct, Marianna! And what's more, these things don't
just sometimes happen more to women, they ALWAYS happen more to women!
It makes me stinking mad when sales people, be they male or female, always
turn to serve a man first and then I have to create a scene which irritates
me even further as I hate doing it!
What about when delivery men/plumbers/electricians promise that they'll
arrive at 09:00 am to deliver/mend/fix as promised and then, because they
assume you're a "housewife" with nothing better to do with your life , they
turn up several hours later with a really smirking attitude and THEN ask to
borrow your phone, which YOU have to pay for, to ring their office to 
have a chat. IT STEAMS ME!
Not to mention the fact that, as I'm only 5 foot 3, when I open my front
door to callers they invariably assume that I am a 10 year old with a lower
than average IQ and ask "Is your Mummy or Daddy in"? (*SHRIEK*)
