I have a short hairstyle, and I've very quickly fallen in love with having shorter hair. It's easier to maintain than long hair, quicker to straighten, and I just think it suits me better than long hair.

I wouldn't say short hair necessarily makes somebody more andro, there's plenty of short hairstyles which look extremely feminine. I will say that short hair seems to give off a different vibe than longer hair, short hair seems to have more "attitude".

First of all, props to the activist approach! I am the first openly transgender woman at my workplace, so I have been sort of thrust in the "educator" role on trans issues at that workplace.

Second of all, I think you misunderstood my question - i know hair has nothing to do with feeling masculine or feminine, but i am asking if it made you feel more feminine to have long hair.

It didn't make me feel more feminine, no. Wearing off the shoulder tops with a tank top underneath makes me feel more feminine than having long hair did. *shrug* I guess that's just me.

I can see that.
