Return of Kings: Beware the insidious danger of the short-haired girl!

Having previously taken on such dire threats to Western Civilization as “fat girls,” “manginas,” and “rape tourettes,” the pickup-artists-cum-worldly-philosophers over at Roosh Valizadeh’s Return of Kings blog have decided to take on an even more insidious danger: Women — sorry, girls — with short hair.

In an alarming expose, guest blogger Tuthmosis reveals the shocking tuth, er, truth:

No woman in all of human history has ever looked better with short hair than she would with a head full of healthy locks.

So why are so many women choosing to cut off the long hair that men so universally admire (allegedly)? Tuthmosis has a few theories. One is that other women are convincing them to do it so that they can have all the short-hair-hating men to themselves. Yep. It’s hair sabatoge!

Women are quick to encourage other women to cut their hair by telling them how “cute” it is. While I’m no scientist, I’m convinced this is some deep, genetic programming at work, one that forces women—who compete with one another on a physical level on a daily basis—to encourage any behavior that might eliminate competitors in the dating pool.

And straight men contribute to this sorry state of affairs, too. Well, “cowardly and deluded men” anyway, according to Tuthy — though why exactly being “cowardly and deluded” would cause men to encourage women to cut their hair is never quite explained.

Tuthy also blames gay men, who apparently have the power to sway the minds of women en masse.

The plaudits a Miley Cyrus, Rihanna, or Anne Hathaway receive when they cut their hair off—from people who have no business commenting on the attractiveness of women, like gay men—creates a copycat cycle that increases the trend geometrically.

So what exactly is the problem with short hair? Don’t get Tuthy started on that!

Seriously, don’t get him started, because what he says makes no fucking sense.

The truth of the matter is that long hair’s almost universally attractive to men, when they’re actually speaking honestly (without trying to appease women in the room). Furthermore, it’s a symbol of youth, femininity, and health. Why can’t old women grow long hair? Because it’s an ephemeral trait of your fertile years.

Really?

Women instinctively know this, which is why every American girl who cuts, and keeps, her hair short often does it for ulterior reasons. Short hair is a political statement.

A political statement of what? A political statement that she won’t put up with assholes like you?

And, invariably, a girl who has gone through with a short cut—and is pleased with the changes in her reception—is damaged in some significant way. Short hair is a near-guarantee that a girl will be more abrasive, more masculine, and more deranged.

Ah, ok. So it does mean that she won’t put up with assholes like you.

I’d developed that belief on years of platonic interactions alone. The bitchiest work colleagues, the most difficult cashier, the most confrontational, aggressive cunts in bars have all shared one trait—short-ass hair.

Yep, it definitely means that.

Tuthy then relates the horrors he faced during his own brief experiences dating women with short hair.

One had rape fantasies and used four-letter words! (These are your complaints? The guy who runs the blog you’re posting on is an actual admitted rapist, and you yourself just used the word “cunt.”)

Another used racial slurs and later got an unflattering “soccer mom” haircut! (Racial slurs? I mean, that’s a dealbreaker for me, but you’re writing for a blog that’s crawling with out-and-proud racists. Aren’t racial slurs right up your alley?)

Yet another jerked him off while texting! (You’re not going to at least give her credit for her manual dexterity?)

He concludes with this:

Not only is short-hair unattractive, it’s one of the biggest signals a man can get that a woman is damaged beyond repair.

In other words, short hair on women appears to repel a certain kind of asshole. Make use of that information as you wish.

EDITED TO ADD: Oh dear. Apparently Tuthy’s dumb post was so dumb and offensive it managed to “go viral”" and generate a ton of hate-traffic for Return of Kings. Roosh, naturally, has decided to try to fan the flames with a “publisher’s note” reiterating Tuthy’s, er, “argument” and helpfully revealing to his new readers what a shithead he is.

Here are some quotes, along with some photos to remind us just who it is who is lecturing women about their hairstyles.

 

Sadly, the women who are blasting us right now with vulgar speech and masculine manner are treading the line of self-mutilation with their pixie cuts. If you know a girl who has voluntarily chopped off such a reliable indicator of female beauty and fertility, nothing short of an intervention with all family and friends is necessary to force the victim to grow her hair back out.

I part now with a message of hope. Women: unless you have a smushed pig face, your attractiveness increases at least 6% for every inch your hair passes your shoulders. Don’t listen to people who are trying to sabotage your beauty by encouraging you to adopt a lesbian haircut.

We are the only ones who will be brutally honest with you. We are not shy to state where objective female beauty comes from, unlike the saboteurs in your life who are just trying to make it harder for you to find a good husband.

And for those of you especially sick women who think that you are going to punish us by cutting your hair, you’re only punishing yourself. Being lonely and having to settle for a brood of cats is not a good life for a woman, but that’s what will happen if you keep your hair short.

  1. Good. With my mother’s desire to cut my hair short, I’ll never have an MRA try to fuck me, ever. WIN WIN!

  2. I strayed into mullet territory a few times back in the 90′s.

    It was an unfortunate case of gender panic. I happen to think ponytails are awesome, and I wanted that sort of colonial american one. That would mean letting my hair grow out into a mullet before mild parental disapproval and peer pressure caused me to bounce back to a conservatively shorter cut.

  3. well, I have short hair because, it is so fine that it looks horrible when I try to grow it long.

  4. @kiwi girl, loved that video. :)

    @leftwingfox, did you wear an eyepatch with your mullet? ’cause if David Bowie taught us anything, lightening bolts and eyepatches make anything cool.

  5. @Katz
    I second David, Sleater-Kinney is one of the greatest bands of all time. All their albums are tremendous, but Dig Me Out is their masterpiece. Off-shoot band Heavens to Betsy put out a good record as well.

    The Gits released the classic Frenching the Bully before their lead singer was murdered.

    Haven’t listened to L7, Hole, Team Dresh, 7 Year Bitch (Viva Zapata) or Babes in Toyland in eons, but I liked them in the 90s.

  6. Note to DE: Many people don’t know who the Koch brothers are and that is especially true of the many non-Americans on the board.

  7. I wonder how they feel about their biggest cheerleader GWW and her super short hair.

    I know I’m stooping down to their level, but it has to be said…Roosh is butt ugly I don’t think he is in any place to have such entitled opinions on women’s appearance. Not that a good looking guy does either, but it’s especially hypocritical of him, especially when its obvious he doesn’t even wash his own hair. Blech.

  8. Buttercup Q. Skullpants

    @Quackers - totally agree on the ” where does he get off” hypocrisy. Women still don’t have the freedom to be ugly, and guys like Roosh want to keep it that way. “Ugly”, when directed at women, is supposed to be the ultimate putdown (though it’s really just a code word for “noncompliant”). It doesn’t have the same sting when directed towards men. Roosh really doesn’t give a shit about his appearance; it’s irrelevant in his world. The double standard allows him to be as greasy and revolting as possible and still pretend like he’s some kind of god.

    I love how these guys fantasize that women are deathly afraid of being alone, and are thus locked in an intense Darwinian competition for limited-edition douchebags. A competition so intense, as Tuthiness suggests, some of us will even cheat by tricking others into cutting their hair short.

    On that note, I’m off to manipulate my bff into wearing crocs and an adult onesie. We’re going clubbing.

  9. I approve of freemage’s salty alpaca mixer. Mostly because it’s as off putting as salty alpaca gloves were (I hate salty things, and citrus bitter, and most of the rest in that)

  10. The only boozy drink in which I will accept salt is a margarita.

  11. I used to like Salty Dogs, but the med I’m on to prevent my headaches is a no-go with grapefruit juice.

    A Salty Dog is a Greyhound (vodka and grapefruit juice) with a salted rim.

  12. It’s weird how many things grapefruit causes an odd reaction with. The essential oil can be a problem too (I remember when I was doing aromatherapy being told never to go out in direct sunlight after using it without washing it off).

  13. This isn’t an alcoholic drink, but a really good salty drink in my opinion is doogh. It’s a savory yogurt drink that’s popular in parts of the Middle East (particularly Iran and Afghanistan) and it’s delicious - especially when it has mint in it.

  14. Testing…testing…

  15. I had a funny experience with doogh. Mr C and I were eating schwarma in San Francisco and he grabbed one out of the fridge thinking it would be sweet like lassi. His face when he actually drank it was priceless.

  16. Mr. C’s doogh face sounds a lot like mine the first time I popped a piece of li hing mui in my mouth before Mr. HK could warn me what it was like. Was not expecting THAT.

  17. I had a funny experience with doogh. Mr C and I were eating schwarma in San Francisco and he grabbed one out of the fridge thinking it would be sweet like lassi. His face when he actually drank it was priceless.

    LOL

    That’s happened to a lot of people - including me. When I first tried it as a kid, I thought it was sweet lassi and then I was unpleasantly surprised. It’s definitely an acquired taste.

  18. I think he would have been fine with it if he knew what to expect, but when you’re expecting lassi…

  19. “Ugly”, when directed at women, is supposed to be the ultimate putdown (though it’s really just a code word for “noncompliant”).

    …along with “fat” and “slutty”. Guys get to gain weight and sleep around with impunity. But women? Call the national guard, the bitches are out of bounds! Murder! Mayhem! MISANDRY! Eyerolls!

  20. Speaking of interesting drinks, during Ramadan a family friend of mine likes to make this drink consisting of milk, 7-up and yogurt all blended up. It sounds disgusting to most people, but it’s surprisingly refreshing and it’s perfect for breaking a fast.

  21. “Ugly”, when directed at women, is supposed to be the ultimate putdown (though it’s really just a code word for “noncompliant”).

    And boom goes the dynamite. :)

  22. There’s a type of lemonade that a friend of my mum’s from India used to make that had salt in it. Mr C insists this is a horrible idea, but I remember it being super refreshing on a hot day, presumably because the salt/sugar balance is good for replenishing depleted electrolytes.

  23. Omg, I know exactly what you’re talking about. I tried that once during iftar* in the local mosque and I couldn’t even finish a small sip.

    *for those who don’t know, iftar is an Islamic term that refers to the time of the day that a person breaks their fast.

  24. It actually does seem to work as far as providing instant relief for that dizzy dehydrated heatstroke-about-to-set-in feeling, but again, if you’re not expecting the salt it could be a bit of a shock.

  25. My favorite hot salty beverage is Tibetan bocha. Again, though, definitely not for everyone.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butter_tea

    There’s a place in Berkeley that makes it, though I’m pretty sure they’re using cow rather than yak butter because where would you get yak butter in the Bay Area?

  26. That sounds delicious. What’s the name of that place? It sounds worth trying.

  27. It’s called Cafe Tibet. The food is awesome too, and the owner is a classically trained French pastry chef so her desserts are amazing too.

  28. Salty drinks? Have you guys never heard of the Michelada? It’s like heaven on earth.

  29. I never heard of the Michelada until I moved to Texas. It’s not bad (but I’m not much of a beer person).

  30. I don’t do beer.

  31. Not only do I have a pixie cut, but my husband helps me maintain it. One thing I do like about it is psychologically, it does make me more outgoing and assertive. I am shy and grew up hiding behind my hair. With it gone, I have to be proud of myself. I’ve been told I look like Isabelle Rosalini, and I guess I can live with being that unattractive. :)
    Yes, some people think I look lesbian because of it. They are very nice women and a pleasure to speak to; it’s so much easier to let a lesbian down gently than a man, because they don’t have a sense of entitlement.

  32. Michelada doesn’t sound very good to me. I mean, I already loathe beer - I can only imagine michelada being worse because of the spices.

    However, I admit that spices in drinks can be pretty good. Like hot chocolate and certain kinds of chai.

  33. thebewilderness

    OMG!!! I got the menopausal short haircut when I was six years old! It was the only way to get the gum out. It has been like that ever since. I had no idea it had been sparing me the attentions of MRAs all these years.
    Thanks cassandrakitty, I will have a virtual margarita on the rocks.

    I never could understand the PC accusation as though managing to meet the minimum standard of decent human being was so impossible people were faking it. WTF?

  34. Well, for the people saying “you’re just being PC” being a decent human being does seem to be beyond their reach.

  35. And, of course, Cyd Charisse is absolutely not the classic ’50s femme fatale in Singin’ in the Rain. No sir. Not a bit of it.

    That long cigarette holder was never, ever, shorthand for sexy, available, sexy, willing, sexy (except for the 5 decades when it was). The short hair means she was completely unappealing to every man in the world in 1952.

  36. Forgot.

    Of course, sexy in those days meant willing to go with the highest bidder. Which fits in quite neatly with these guys attitudes - but how come anyone was paying any attention to her at all?

  37. There’s a type of lemonade that a friend of my mum’s from India used to make that had salt in it.

    I like to get salted limeade at Thai restaurants, especially in hot weather.

  38. Personally, I don’t care what length a man’s hair is, as long as it’s (a) clean, (b) well groomed, and (c) not a fucking mullet, because those are gross on anyone.

    OH GOD YES THIS

    I remember the first time I saw a mullet, back in the 80s. I had no idea it was meant to be an actual style and thought “Make up your mind, cut it short, or better, stop being a coward and grow it properly!”

    Facial hair is another story. Gotta be clean shaven for me, because I have sensitive skin (typical natural redhead skin, in other words) and I get carpet burns just looking at beards. Even stubble gives me a rash.

    I can live with Mr K’s stubble, cos beard rash isn’t really a thing over There. Plus I love that one of his portraits (by Vouet) shows him with a seriously blue jaw. Medici ancestry for the win. :P

    And don’t even get me started on those douchey little chin-patches. I deduct 10 hotness points on sight for those. Fifty if it’s on a known PUA.

    There should be a law against those. The little chin-tuft or strip looks great WITH A MOUSTACHE. The Cavaliers knew how to do these things. Blokes who aren’t sure if they’re hipsters or beard-deprived Amish do not. Moustache without beard: fine, all sorts of styles look wonderful! Beard without moustache: aaaaaaaagh hurk no!

    @mildlymagnificent - now isn”t Cyd Charisse in flapper mode the perfect image for Phryne Fisher? Physically, I mean, not character-wise.
