If they only "want you" to cut your hair and are not threatening you then you are not so bad off. They seem to be willing to talk, and I'll bet, let you keep it long.
I agree with the other posts that you need to keep it clean and neat. If it it is straggly at the ends get a minimal trim (and inch or two), to make it look great. The androgynous look can be cool--just do it with good style.
The advice on being an otherwise virtuous person is spot on. I have found I always have to go a bit further in all my efforts, courtesies, etc., because I am also defending the reputation of all my fellow longhairs.
Here is an idea: show your parents your message and our replies. If you do, this is for them: Mom and Dad, if this is all you have to complain about, count your blessings and revel in the joy of having a son who is not just a copy of every kid his age. It sounds like you have a pretty cool kid!
