Maybe a mid length. It's said that shorter hair make older women look younger, but I think that applies to women 60+. 40 is not old so do a mid length I wouldn't suggest having hair down your back that makes you look like a old person trying to be young which is never good.

Should 40 year old women cut their hair short?

No matter what lenght a women wears at any age, I believe proper grooming is the key. My grandmother, who is 90, still wears shoulder lenght hair, but always keeps it in either a neat bun or a schingon (think Audrey Hepburn in that famous picture for Breakfast at Tiffany's) She also insisted on dyeing it all the way into her 60's.

Even now, with it being as white as snow, no one ever suggests that she should cut it, cause it's always so neat.

So as long as you're hair is tidy, I see no need in cutting it.

Should 40 year old women cut their hair short?

What do you mean by cutting your hair short? Do you mean cutting your waist length hair to shoulder length or do you mean cutting your hair into a very short cropped style? If it is the latter, then don't do it! I don't think it will make you look younger, if anything I think it can often do the opposite. I understand older women cutting their hair because it is brittle and thinning, but if you have lovely thick wavy hair, why would you want to cut it all off!! Women cutting all their hair off after 40 is a thing of the past, how many movie stars over 40, cut their hair short? Very few, because longer hair = femininity and youth. Just make sure it is in a flattering style for your face, with lots of choppy layers and a nice colour that suits your skin tone. HTH : )
