Thanks for the great sister-thread! I love to see the stats
So that I can wear nothing, yet cover everything with my hair
I want to look like a mermaid/elf/mythical creature/princess/anime character/Renaissance painting
To defy cultural stereotypes and expectations
I want to be able to use my hair as a weapon
For warmth, to wear as a blanket/coat/scarf
I really want to become (or now enjoy being) an old woman with long, flowing silver/white hair
I like big buns and I cannot lie!
I love the feeling of my hair brushing against my body, lower and lower down
To prove (to myself or others) that I can, or out of a sense of competition or defiance
To look more femme, and less butch or boyish
This poll is inspired by this thread: Odd reasons you want longer hair! It's totally worth reading and contributing to--there are many more unique and entertaining reasons than I have room to include here. It's a good read! As the thread progressed, it became clear that some of the "odd" reasons were actually rather common. I want to know, how common? I'm thirsty for numbers!
So I went through the thread and tried my best to distill out the ten oddest, and yet also seemingly common, reasons. Sometimes I've combined similar reasons into one poll option. Feel free to elaborate on your reasons here and/or at the thread linked to above!

Now measuring in at 37 inches, or BCL. Classic by Christmas '15 is a real possibility! Yeah, that's my clothes horse in the pic. I'm that glam.

Couldn't vote as I felt none of the options fully explain my reason for wanting long hair/growing out my hair, so I'm reposting what I posted in the Odd reasons you want longer hair thread. For me, part of it is that the last time my hair was long was in early grade school, and I've had between mid-neck and almost collar bone for all of my teens and got tired of having shorter hair. The other part is that I feel women were always meant to have long hair.
I voted everything exept the silver hair one and the cultural stereotype one, the rest are all true for me

Oh, I did not realize I could vote for more than one thing
Actually all of these are reasons for me to grow long hair! But I voted: To defy cultural stereotypes and expectations.
Lets see how long this little lump can get. Viva la natural!Lady Nemetona, Adept of the Henna Flame in the Order of the Long Haired Knights
Because I want to be an older woman with long, silver hair, and to prove that I can grow it.

I want long flowing silver hair! I wish I go grey soon. I am only 24 but many people start to gray early, right?

I think I chose four options but out of all of them I think the best one for me is to prove to myself and others that I can. I feel like everyone wants me to have short hair, like my family. But it isn't who I am. I do want to prove that I can have long hair.
