How many of you would consider going out with a bald woman?
I know hair loss isn't the same for a man and a woman. They mean different things. But how much of this is just society and its values? A woman going bald is supposedly a much worse thing for a woman, mainly as its rarer and for a woman her looks at much more important than a mans. But in an increasingly elitist western society and even globally, image is everything, I think different emphasis on beauty is changing. More and more, men are investing a lot more time, effort and money into their looks. People seem to strive for exterior perfection these days.
I would personally say that yes, I would consider it. I think it would be completely hypocritical otherwise. To say no, I would never go out with a bald woman is IMO just unjust. I think this question is interesting as it gives us an idea of being in a woman's shoes in discussing bald men. But would I be attracted to a bald woman? I'm not sure. Perhaps. There are a few celeb women who have had the bald look for an acting role or whatever and have still looked pretty, even if it isn't as pretty as when they had hair. In fact I think if just as many woman went bald as men, it would probably show that bald woman can still look good mostly, probably more so than men.
So what do people think, could you?
