I hit 18 years of age in 1972. So, given the era, of course, I had longish hair. My mother used to gripe until I laid in a beard. Think that distracted her. Stopped growing my hair long in the mid-70s, but haven't been without a short-cropped beard since 1972

I worked on an airport pumping jet fuel when I was a younger lad. My buddy tapped me on the shoulder one day to check out this lovely lady that stepped off a private airplane. She was tall, wore tight leather pants, and had a long, beautiful mane of black hair blowing in the wind. When she turned around, it was Steven Tyler from Aerosmith. Dude really did look like a lady. Let’s just say I’m a lot more careful these days.

Haha, I'm a little bit younger but mid-70s were as long as it got - think Eric Forman on That 70s Show and you could just put him in for my senior picture and nobody would notice the difference. By end of the decade it was just above the ears and off the collar and been the same exact haircut ever since --- boring, but it's all mine!

I've never confused a long haired guy for a gal, but once I did from behind confuse a short haired female Canadian conservation officer for a man - glad she had a sense of humor!
