Almost half U.S. women do not mind if a man is losing his hair, but 99 percent are against comb-overs, a new survey has found.

Forty-eight percent of the women in the online poll for Cargo magazine say men shouldn't even worry about hair loss, while 32 recommend going with the flow and cutting all hair off. But only 1 percent suggest hiding a balding head under a cap or a comb-over.

Fifty-eight percent of the women say men look sexiest in jeans and a t-shirt, but they hate men in anything too trendy: 92 percent hated leather pants, 91 percent hated chest-hair-baring shirts and 76 percent hated pleats in pants.

About 40 percent preferred a clean-shaven man, while 31 percent prefer a man with a five o'clock shadow. Only 1 percent favored a mustache.

For summer, more than half of the woman prefer to see a man in nothing skimpier than bathing trunks and 58 percent say they'd rather not see men wearing sandals.

The survey appears in the July/August issue of Cargo on newsstands June 14.

A beter stat would be to see an age breakdown as well. I am sure more mature women care less than do youger ones, probably because more mature men have male pattern baldness

That's true. Those three whales occupy 48% of the feminine mass on this planet and probably close to 20% of the land mass and gravitational pull. If you see the moon suddenly dip into the atmosphere, you know the fatties are out and about.

Cassin, I wonder if the same 1% that don't mind the combover are the same 1% that prefer the moustache. If so, a combover + moustache + leather pants, and you're rockin' it.

Women wouldn't mind a receding/slightly thinnning hairline. I can't see 48% of women accepting a NW7.

The only thing that surprises me in that survey is that so many women hated pleated pants. What's so bad about pleated pants, I wear them about 350 times a year.

receeding = good. thinning = bad. simple as that, i'd venture to guess that i have the absolute worse type of balding, just all over! you can't pull that off to look cool no matter how hard you try. recession slowly, no big deal, i wouldn't even be on this site if i was just receeding, it woudln't bother me in the slightest, its worry about sunlight making you look completely bald that bugs me.

I just noticed when I buzzed my head that my NW2 hair is diffuse thinning in a NW7 pattern. I almost couldn't tell at first and my girlfriend or her 21 year old friends can't.

Chicks dont notice receeding or thinning until its getting pretty bad. I've talked to lots of college aged girls and they say they think "receeding hairlines are cute."

I didn't think I had it so bad with my recession, but now my diffuse thinning is opening up a whole new world of pain. Think I'll just Bic my head when the thinning gets bad and start doing triathlons so I have an excuse.

Why would running triathalons be a good excuse for shaving your head?

triathlon has swimming... swimmers shave their heads. Guess it would be easier just to say I'm a swimmer, but I couldn't back that up. A triathlon I actually could. So if I had a shaved head, people might think I'm pretty hardcore.

Would this be the same 48% of women who say that money and looks aren't as important as a sense of humour in a man? yeah right I'll take that one with a pinch of salt.

The first thing you have to understand about women if you want to get anywhere with them is that they are liars, often not intentionally, much of the time because they don't really know what they want themselves, so they just repeat a politically correct line.

Yeah, thats why they like confident men who are like, 'listen you are goin with me hun' over the nice guys who are carefull about invading their comfort zones and sh*t. If you wait around for a women to make up her mind about you, you will be dead before you get anywhere with her.
