Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow

I got my hair cut today. It's basically a chin-length bob. I was talking to my family about it at Family Dinner on Sunday and I had one of those hairstyle magazines to look through with everyone. When I said that I was looking at going much shorter than my usual style our family friend Dave said, "Jessica, guys like girls with long hair not short hair." So I laughed and kept looking at the magazine. Then he said it 6 more times. Seriously. He just kept telling me that guys don't like short hair they like long hair. Now the guy was just dumped by his fiancée last week so I was trying to be nice. But finally I had had enough was like, "Well, Dave, I don't really give a rat's ass what kind of hair guys like on girls. If some guy doesn't like my hair short then he's more than welcome to go and find a long haired girl. Good riddance to him." I was so frickin' annoyed with him. I mean, it was like he thought all my decisions should be based on what will please a guy. Are you fucking kidding me? And after I finally gave my reply he started bitching about "darn stubborn women." Yeah, God forbid a woman should do something to please herself and not a man. I think I now have a better idea of why he got dumped.
