Personally, I don't like to keep long nails. When my nails growing long enough, I must clip them. I always think that growing long nails is more of woman's preference. Their beauty asset. It would be seldom for a man to keep long nails. What do you think of it?

I don’t like having long nails. I feel uncomfortable when my nails getting longer. So I don’t understand why some want to have long nails. For girls they color it, but what can man do with his long nails. if they color the nails then they would too lady like. if they don't color it then it wiil look awful. by the way i also think long nails seem a little dirty.Anyway i still respect people who have long nails. i just don't accept my husband having long nails.so i alwasy pushed him to cut his nails if it looks longer.

I personally would like to see both males and females with short clean nails. Although for fashion's sake, I love to see manicured nails of ladies. Some men who are not so men chose to have their nails done so well, that would look pretty too. But I would prefer clean and well trimmed nails as far as cleanliness is concerned.

Yes,it was a girl's thing to grow long nails and use nail polish on them to attract attention.They took great care to nourish their long nails.But are they still growing nails like that?I haven't seen any girls with long nails now a days.But if I happen to see one,either male or female,I am worried about their hygiene as long nails are good places for germs to grow under.

Anyone who takes care enough to keep their nails long is surely also someone who takes care of their hygiene well... but anyway yes, people still do that.

Hello clorissa dear, I don't think that you should be mixing with young men with long nails dear, this is not a good sign of neatness in a young man and he might start wanting to use your nail polish and the next thing you know he'll be trying on your clothes. Now if his bank balance is really high his little predilictions might not bother you too much but you must insist dear that he only does this in the bedroom, you have your nice reputation to think about dear.

Hi Clorissa I would find it really strange for me to grow nails, i just can't do it it's so awkward... anyways i can't coz i play guitar, one of my friends keeps long fingernails, and i have already said to him it looks so awkward why doesn't he cut them, he says nothing, i say it is pretty obvious many people would find it weird for a male to grow fingernails, i don't like quiet long fingernails even on females either... have a nice day Clorissa

I like to have long nails, too, but I think it's unattractive when men have long fingernails. For me, I like them long because it makes my hands and fingers look more long and slender and feminine. I also like to wear nail polish (red, pink, coral, gold, purple, usually) or to have a french manicure look. I think it is pretty on women. On men, though I find it strange. It's weird though- I think it looks nice for women but it grosses me out a little on men. Sometimes I have seen men who play the guitar have long nails on their right hand for that. I guess it helps or something...

It becomes uncomfortable if you have long nails and I regurlarly keeps it short and i think for hygiene purposes it is a must. Long nails may have a purpose for some like gutarists, i saw them to have long nails as to pluck the guitar more easily and some other stuff like that.
