I said the exact same thing about what the comments would be if he had saved children from a fire or something like that....yeah they wouldnt have called him hot, but they wouldn't have been so negative either.
U-man, I looked through the comments and searched for the word "bald"...only 1 that I saw mentioned him being bald. The rest talked about him being ugly but as discussed...its not JUST BECAUSE HES BALD! Not even close...he just isn't an attractive man unfortunately. Your post is an example of how YOU make everything about baldness. Nobody else made comments as if him being bald was the cause of him having to what he did. Yes, they made comments about how the women should have accepted the fine rather than sleep with him. But this was because A) They had just read the story and had only negative emotions associated with him and B) he isn't an attractive man as mentioned before...while the baldness certainly doesn't help, it is not even remotely close to the only thing that makes him unnatractive...its more or less the icing on top of the ugly cake.
But yes, it does reflect on how some people use other's appearance as a means to make fun of them...but this extends to so many things that baldness itself isn't nearly the only thing. People get sh*t for being too skinny, too short, too fat, certain facial features, hair colour, being bald, skin tone, breast size, freckles, moles, etc. Its just how some people are...but I can seriously say I'm getting to the point where I realize that THEY are the problem and not the people who they make fun of. Striving to "fit in" among shallow people like that doesn't make sense to me. Because then you're only accepted for things of a fleeting nature. People who only judge others solely based on looks and material possessions are a joke to me...I don't care how big of a percentage of our population they make. They are the same people who worship celebrities and spend their time indulging in vein nonsense, spouting opinions that they subliminally get from the media that perpetuates this bullshit in the first place. Its a joke to me....Considering you live in California of all places, I can see how this may feel like a big burden to you. But stop seeing yourself as the god-damn problem. Hell, stop seeing other people as the problem either. It just is how it is...maybe you should consider moving to a more laid back, less image focused part of America, or even part of the world in general?
