The Pope is perfectly right. We can be ever so thankful that ours is a harmless, legal fetish.
I remember that a friend of mine once told me about a therapy experience that he had had.
He had taken group therapy sessions where everybody was encouraged, but not forced, to tell the group what their problem was.
There it apparently took one shy, but otherwise completely normal guy almost the entire weekend to finally come out of his closet, and after he had done so, everyone else felt their own, allegedly insurmountable problems reduced to something as trivial as a dripping faucet: That guy told the group that he had an 18-month-old daughter and was working in his office day and night to stay away from her, as he had discovered that he wanted to have sex with her.
Isn´t that hell on earth for everyone involved?
And if I´m allowed to add one personal comment on our long-hair fetish situation: Even if our real-life partner cannot fulfill our desire for very long hair, it is sites like this one where we can, fairly innocently and with respect for everyone involved, find more long hair to admire than we could possibly meet and indulge in in a lifetime.
So thanks to everyone running this forum and participating in a civilized manner.
