1: Hygiene is no doubt a huge part of what attracts a woman to a man, however, what do women think when they see a man with slightly longer nails than usual? (Long as in approx. 1 and a half cm from the meat of your finger.)
2: Does it look feminine in any way?
3: If I was to keep it long, how would I look after them, and make sure they don't snap, while at the same time, not making them look feminine?
Thanks.

Well I think long nails on guys is very unattractive and honestly gross. I don't mind if they're not super short but they shouldn't be long. I understand why you're growing your nails but I think it's still not good on guys. The picture of your nail isn't too bad but personally I think a bit shorter is better; definitely not longer. I don't like it when guys have longer nails then me. I don't keep mine real long but they're also not real short. I do think it looks feminine on guys and sometimes even creepy (when they're really long).
If you have brittle nails they do make things that you can apply to your nails to help harden them so they won't break as easily. Aside from that I'm not sure there's much else you can do. Be careful with what you're doing so as to not break them. I like to file mine and trim them frequently to keep them at the length I like. If I start to let them grow too long they easily break on the edges even though my nails are pretty hard.
