If we're losing our hair, shouldn't that motivate us to improve ourselves...

...In other ways? Obviously it SUCKS that we've got male pattern baldness, but why just sit around and mope about it? Shouldn't we try to improve our intelligence/education, physical fitness, social circle, etc. while also trying to deal with our hair loss?

You're right, and most of all, we shouldn't fall into depression, because no one really cares about our hairloss except ourselves !

JZA70: you are the only subhuman on this forum with your ridiculously pessimistic and worthless outlook on your life. Lol throw in the towel and give up? I wonder to what extent you meant that. We don't need ppl like you on this forum.

Also your signature is complete BS! lol I don't believe you even have the intelligence to remotely fathom what it would be like to be the opposite sex. There are pros and cons for both genders dude. And bald guys aren't worthless trash. You are. It's because of people like you that the rest of us balding/bald guys are stereotyped as pathetic and useless.

Get real dude. I have no effect whatsoever on what women think of bald guys, I don't even have any female friends so for you to say that I'm the reason that women think we're genetic trash.. I guess I'm the cause of this too right ? - https://twitter.com/baldismwatch

Keep taking your "resveramix tablets" and telling yourself that I caused all this.

I hope this is a joke..

I agree with both sides actually....I don't care how many bald celebrities ie the rock...Vin diesel...whoever u list...yes they are good looking but they would be BETTER looking at nw0 with a head full of hair. BUT it doesn't mean bald or balding guys shouldn't put up a fight. Hit the gym...get a tan...grow a beard. Like the goalie from US soccer team. Increase Ur chances of getting noticed in a positive way

You're an idiot, JZ.

Just because you lack confidence, hate yourself, and are constantly self-loathing, don't keep trying to bring other people down.

Have you ever thought that it's your attitude, and not the hair on your head that you lack that results in the way people treat you? I have never in my life looked at a bald person any different than any one else. I don't know why you think that people without hair are treated different. That's bull.

Every day I work in transportation and see multiple couples in late 20s, 30s guys who are not even jacked with hot girlfriends/wives.

If you have the body of a fitness model there will be attractive girls who will be willing to sleep/date you, + you can always be at least a norwood 3 with a hairpiece if you even hit rock bottom and become a norwood 7. It is not nearly as big of a deal as some people on this forum make it out to be. For a lot of people here they were foreveralone virgins before they even started losing their hair. For them, it is the straw that broke the camels back. They are the ones who claim "sexual death sentence"

Don't act like improving yourself is "compensating" and somehow a bad thing. Life is a competition if you lack in some areas you need to improve what you can

I agree with you. When the time came when I was really going to build confidence (around the age of 12 or 13), things already went wrong with me. Hair was growing all over my body in an excessive rate. As if that didn't take enough of my confidence I started to go bald when I was 14. So pretty much I never was confident in my life and forever alone :/.

Don't get me wrong, I think you should always strive to improve yourself. But it's just how it will be perceived by women for example. How you won't always reap the rewards a NW1 would get if he did the same work on himself.

A guy with a full head of hair will instantly be congratulated if he achieves something, while bald men will somehow always been seen as trying hard or improving themselves to compensate for the feeling of insecurity they have because they're losing their hair.

I'm speaking from personal experience here, with women and society in general. Other (rare) bald men on this forum like uncomfortable man, Exodus and Captain Forehead can confirm I'm not making all this up.

Most guys (bald or not) don't make the effort, though. If we do, we'll have a much better chance at achieving whatever makes us happy.

Some guys here really need to be on suicide watch. Just because I'm not bald yet I have no opinion? I already know I'll be bald and I feel like I'm on death row awaiting what's coming. All the girls I get easily now I know I'll work 2x as hard for when my socially accepted hair thins out. As for Fred the Belgium u seem to be whining that u want to have a full head of hair, not exercise, and get laid. There's many guys with mops of hair that can't get laid. Elliot rodger...social outcast who shot up a school, had a full head of hair and was a constantly rejected and a virgin.

Fred I'm not trying to be an *** but it seems Ur early baldness messed up Ur confidence during Ur crucial development years. At the age of 17 to 21 I was finding myself in college, working the courage to meet new friends, join a frat...talk to girls etc. I'm sorry that during the time u shouldve been doing that u were dealing with baldness. My jiu jitsu coaches are bald and they're not roided out yet they have beautiful wives. They definitely got laid left and right before they got married.

If you don't want to "overcompensate" meaning you're too lazy to make your physique more presentable to women, then that's fine...I suggest u study the minds of women and master the art of having a solid game when you talk to thrm. Look up Neil strauss.....author of "the game" he looks exactly how I think fredthebelgian looks. But he knows how to work the game on women and get laid. I've tried some of the stuff in the book and it works to a tee...sorry for rambling but the point is when u say women treat you bad or "dismiss you as a human" it is moreso Ur lack of confidence rather than hair

I went on here to discuss the effects of hair loss and what I can do.
Not to improve myself hah.

Exactly, there's no point to improve other parts of your life when you're simply not happy with the way you are.

UC man covered it pretty good in another thread. We need hair, not muscles, not a hobby or anything else.

That's the only reason why we're here is because of our hair, no amount of lifting weights or learning how to play the guitar will ever bring it back.

Thats your biggest problem- you are generalizing everything. You know nothing about society- your perception is really ****ed up, maybe now (with hair transplant done) you'll go proper through puberty.

HairLossTalk.com- 40000members, 3 bald guys! ups.. 2. Fred had a hair transplant.

Right this site is to discuss effects of hairloss and what u can do. Effects of hairloss can be depression and insecurity....and some of us are suggesting alternative methods to deal with that. Such double standards..When people here suggest improving yourself u guys are quick to say "I'm only here to talk about my hair and how to get it back!" But why the heck are you bringing up women and whatnot? It's a general hairloss forum meaning effects of hairloss, alternative solutions, dealing with it mentally, etc. I see alot of bald guys being the life of the parties at bars and clubs while slaying women left and right. Now....I do acknowledge that it's easier for men with Norwood 0 to do it...but it isn't impossible

.

But THIS! this belonges on the top-10 biggest nonsense you've ever written. I've worked with bald guys- educated, engenieers and you earned your recpect&stripes with clever solutions and not by Norwood scale!

You are poisoning this forum with hate! Imagine some balding 16year old kid reading this... best for him to give up and go mopping up the streets.
