Any law you want to use, it's not in there that is sin for women to cut their hair.
I think when he refers to "nature" he is referring to cultural norms. Some say it is nature as in literal nature such as the animal kingdom, but that makes no sense. What are we going to look at? A fish? can't use lions as examples for sure.
