Ya. My cousin asked me if I was gay 20 years ago because I always wore my hair short. I started wearing my hair really short and natural back in the late seventies when a lot of women weren't. However, I was a model so some people accepted it. However, I still got stares and whispers because everyone assumed I was a lesbian when I'm not. I didn't like the stereotype labeling and men assuming you're so liberal , freaky and open because you have short hair. Now its more accepted but some people still think what they think and you just have to ignore it and be confident and be yourself.
I love it because I love myself with short hair. I feel free. I felt pressure on the last several years because I got older and gained weight and felt I didn't look as feminine and attractive anymore and grew out my hair and used wigs or weaves to " balance it out the lines". However, I didnt feel like myself. I finally cut my hair again and this time I'm keeping it and not going back.
