i recognize that a lot of the prejudice is because bald men are uglier and uglier people are usually villains . . . . . but i also suspect it is sort of a xenophobia. you look different when you are a young bald guy. it makes you an outsider. and people tend to fear, hate and misunderstand outsiders

did you see the new amazing spider man?

jamie foxxx had a full head of hair. to make him a loser they made him bald . . . . .

The Spiderman movie was beyond ridiculous. I have mentioned it in this thread.

Fear and hate me, but dont portray our kind as weak and duplicitous.

Jason Alexander in Friends with a grown out NW6

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8M3xhlYLmYE

Was the NW6 a coincidence?
Yep, so fuqking typical. The bald "loser" on the verge of suicide has a very pronounced, grown, out NW6.
I understand that this clip is like, 20 years old, but nothing much has changed with regard to what this "look" on a man supposedly represents to society.

this isnt a hollywood issue. Its simply a life issue. Hollywood doesnt create stereotypes, they capitalize on them.

Anyone seen the Gilmore Girls revival? Scott Patterson (58) was NW3 during the original run 10 years ago. Last year, at ATX he was NW4 with heavy thinning. They gave him a wig in the show! They made him a NW2. Even worse, in promotions and interviews now, he is wearing a cap!
What the hell.
