Are bald men more virile than their well thatched contemporaries?
OBJECTIVE: To test the popular assertion that bald men are more virile than their well thatched contemporaries
DESIGN, PARTICIPANTS AND SETTING:
Secondary analysis of data from a case-control study in a community setting between 1994 and 1997 among men below the age of 70 years, using in-person interviews and categorisation of baldness, with subsequent completion of a questionnaire by the participant. We analysed risk factors for baldness using unconditional logistic regression.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:
Baldness; history of ejaculations between the ages of 20 and 49 years; total number of sexual partners.
RESULTS:
There was no significant association between baldness and the frequency of ejaculations, but bald men were significantly less likely to have had more than four female sexual partners.
CONCLUSIONS:
In the population studied, bald men appear to be no more virile than their well thatched contemporaries.
