Yesterday in class we watched The Little Mermaid 2.  Yes, it is a crappy sequel, but the little ones love it.  I noticed that the female mermaids have extremely long hair, but the male mermaids have relatively short hair.  How does this happen?  Do they have barbers?  If so, why don't the females do something about their long, nappy hair?  Do the males have a gene that only allows their hair to grow to a certain length?  Is it because the males don't need to cover thier chests?  I am perplexed.
 
In all the paintings, drawings, and cartoons I've seen, the males always have short hair.  WHY?  Any theories on this subject would be greatly appreciated.
