I find that most of my women friends cut their hair, if at all,
after they have their first children, not after they marry.
There are some obvious impracticalities involved with long hair
and babies (just ask me; I'm an aunt with hair past my hips)
that new mothers don't want to put up with.

As for "catching a man" (a quote from the original article), I
know you'll get a lot of flames about stereotypes, etc., but
don't worry about those silly girls.  Yes, the majority of us
real women still try to "catch" men.  I have found steel-jawed
bear traps work best for me, but I live in a rural area and can
deal with the occasional lameness caused by my men losing a
foot or two.  Those nifty little nooses attached to trees that
snare an ankle and hang the man upside-down from a tree also
work.  For city dwellers, I recommend thin wires across the
sidewalk to trip him, then a net to trap him while he's down.
Once you've caught your man, there are any number of uses for
him.  Men can usually be housebroken fairly easily, and are
naturals at taking out the garbage, watching football games,
and washing the car on Sundays.  Use your imagination!
