Are any of you old enough to remember the generation gap antagonism and contempt between the hippies and the older generation? Remember the old timers annoyed by rock music and long hair on men? Old fashioned 'all American values and traditions' were threatened by the Woodstock generation....the guys with the flatop haircuts tended to be ultra-conservative...I can remember my grandfather expressing annoyance for my uncle and his shoulder length hair which he grew out after serving in Vietnam...I know many guys back then let their hair grow long as an act of rebellion...I had long hair in the late seventies because I thought it was cool and many rock stars had long hair I remember being with my parents when they were checking out a rental property and the flatop haired owner made a snide comment about my hair length and my dad defending me telling the guy thats how he likes to wear it..or something to that extent....
