Hello everyone i'am new to the forum, but i've been lurking for a while now. I actually have decided to make an account because there's something that i want to share with you. It's about how can we balding/bald guys help ourselves in this world that has an obvious lack of care about us. Didn't know which section would be the best to share this, but i feel the "impact" section would be the best.
Anyways, have you guys noticed that most balding/bald guys are too defeated and passive ? We get treated worse and usually ignored, no one usually cares about our problem (which is really serious) and they only mention baldness when they crack a joke or make fun of someone, people spew a lot of BS and inaccurate claims and facts about baldness and that it's not a big deal, scientists and medical companies aren't interested or enthusiastic enough to give us a cure and all we have are treatments that are not guaranteed to work and have shitty side effects that we all know about. Baldness is really considered no more than a joke to people and fullheads, but what about us balding/bald guys who are in the depth of the dark tunnel of hairloss ?
We need to work on changing this wrong and flawed perspective of people and show them the real tough truth of baldness, but how can we achieve that purpose ?
The answer is simple, we use the media and campaigns.
In this time and age people are too influenced by the media, especially social media. Nearly everyone now has a facebook account and other social media accounts and anyone who doesn't have them is considered weird and abnormal, people look at their phones day and night and spend more time on the internet more than real life, people interact more on the internet because it's more comfortable and fun and everything in this world is connected to the internet. It's a world inside a world. Of course some smart people have taken advantage of that method and gained fame and wealth and some others even changed some stuff in the world, so why can't we use it to spread awareness about baldness and reveal it's real truth for people who don't suffer from it ?
We could use the social media by posting about baldness on Facebook and Twitter and promoting them to show them to as many people as possible or uploading videos on Youtube that contain all the sh*t facts about this disease or publishing articles in the newspapers to talk about the impact of hairloss.
And the other way is establishing a campaign and a movement and try to express our thoughts and talk about all the sh*t we know about this and maybe publishing banners everywhere and every banner would contain a real quote about baldness.
Like "Baldness can cause serious depression and sometimes lead to suicide",, "Baldness can hit men in their teens and early 20's and it has a massive impact on young men's lives",, "Baldness affect women, not only men" (this one would work the best lol),, "When you lose your hair you lose a part of yourself and identity", etc.
And believe me this sh*t works like charm. We have "fat acceptance movement",, "gay movement",, "trans movement",, "71 genders movement" (lol), etc, so i don't think " the bullshit of baldness movement" would be any different. And believe me, liberals love this sh*t and i'm not even kidding, this way is guaranteed to work in our society. It's a cheap way, but we have no choice.
This is way easier said than done and need a lot of money and effort and we need to be backed, but it's the only way. We just can't cope forever and do nothing but compensate and just accept this sh*t without doing anything at all. No balding/bald guy likes baldness and in some cases it leads to suicide and in most cases depression and other bad sh*t we all suffer every second.
Even if this method didn't give us a cure, if it even slightly changed the way people and society think, it'd be a great victory for us. And i'm sure it'd encourage those lazy *** scientists to put in more work and at least give us a better treatment with less side effects.
If we keep doing nothing, nothing will ever change.
