Fyi i'm 31, hair has been receding since 18. Am now Norwood 3-4. This is a rant but i'm not feeling sorry for myself, i'm trying to put balding into perspective. I'm pissed it's considered "normal"
Something about balding feels off. I don't care people say it's genetic, environmental, it's this is that. I honestly don't know what it is but something must be causing it. No way a human specimen looks like this, ESPECIALLY AT A YOUNG AGE.
I don't care X actor looks somewhat ok. I don't care some bald guys have success with women. Get them a full head of hair and their success will spike up ten-fold.
There's no way a healthy human specimen looks like this.
If aliens come and take a quick look at our species, they'd think the balding ones are diseased or dying or something.
If I were a woman, i'd always pick a full head over a thinning head or bald head. It's not just me, there's studies showing this bias. And honestly I can't fault them, I understand them.
If I see a woman showing hair loss, i'm always inclined not to pick her.
It looks off, weird, lame, unhealthy.
Look at a top athlete (muscled, low % body fat, etc). Look at a thinning/bald top athlete. Something does not feel right - whatever his fitness level is. Whatever his social status is, whatever your whatever is, balding is NOT NORMAL. Makes you step back and think wtf?
I watch so many guys that are balding now, young ones. Severely thinning at 25-35. Bald at 30. Or I watch myself. Whatever. I don't watch them/me and think "wow, what a fine male specimen", i think "something is wrong with this dude and it's turning me off"
