Must be a damn fine ass then Brian! - there's shameless self-promotion for you Farhad, by Mr. Ritchie himself :)

I've got to say Sandy, I think you're tops but some of your comments are making me shake my head. Women being lazy if they don't want to spend the time (and money) it takes to keep long hair in style? I really didn't want to get involved in a conversation (on a kickboxing website guys!) about women's hairstyles, but ... I've had short and long hair. I like both, right now long is better for me for work. I'll probably cut it at some point in the future. I have a lot of hair and it can take up to 45min to dry it straight (so it's not all frizzy sticking up all over), plus all the damn products to keep it that way. Or pay hundreds of pounds to have it chemically straightened. Thats why when I'm not working its usually in a ponytail. And even a ponytail isn't great for training, because it still whips around into my face - not practical!

Our 'crowning glory' ?? Bollocks!! (can I say that Brian?) My crowning glory is my brain, thanks very much - over 130 IQ (a geek and damn proud of it!). Or maybe my work ethic, or my generosity to my friends or ... I don't know, but 'A woman's hair is her crowning glory' is a very old, biblical reference that really does make it sound like a woman's best place is where she looks pretty. And I think I know you well enough Sandy to know that you wouldn't dream of suggesting that. But this whole 'long hair' issue...I agree with Brian. Hair is hair. Some people look better with it short, some long (men and women), Brian looks great with none :)
