And any physician will tell you something that they've known for ince before Roman times, baldness is caused by excess testosterone production cause, in turn, by large than average genitalia.... which is why women reckon that bald men make better lovers.... they're better equiped. ::)

I'll have to consult TheJudge on that, around here I suspect he is the only one with the experience to say whether you are B.S.ing because you are bald and covering up your "inadequacies" or not.  :)

Well they've always known that it is the mother that passes on the baldness genes, so if the maternal father is bald, therefore the male grandchildren of the maternal grandfather will be bald.

Oh boy, wait until they find a way to alter those genes.

I'm living proof that statement is false.  My brother and I both have our hair, and our mother's father was bald.

well, not totally prove it false, it isn't that if your mothers dad was bald you would be, it is you have a greater chance of it.

My father is the only one of 4 boys not to go bald, so it isn't a given.

The other cause is headboards.... through working out with a girl too near the top of the bed. ::)

Anyhow, a real man doesn't do anything he doesn't have to.... and hell would freeze over before he does.

If you bald guys weren't always blinding us with the glare we wouldn't be annoyed enough to pick on you.  You may be bald but you're making the rest of us blind.  At least thats what I tell my brother-in-law.  ;)

Now that's just cruel.  Granted, I show pictures of Janet Reno and Bea Arthur on the beach in thong bikinis to people, and even make them look at Bob Dole dancing in a thong....wait, where was I going with this?

Oh yeah!!!  Nevermind, I'm cruel too.

Being a Klingon, cruel comes with the territory.

One thing that is kinda surprising me, is that , well, you know I am the furthest from being vain by any means. I would go to a black  tie affair wearing my over alls, and not feel out of place at all. Heck I would probably break into a Jerry Clower skit and make new friends there.

But the baldness is one thing, Hell I have the high and tight haircut since I was about 12.

But man, having the uhm... other hair go grey bothers me for some reason. Not sure why, Hell I'm married so I rarely have to look down there anyways, But it does kinda get to me.

When it goes gray, dye it out.  Or shave.

It is to late for me aswell Soreyes although I do have lots of peach fuzz.We could do what William Shatner does or has done but that costs lot of $$$.I wouldn't complain about being gray as that can be dyed which I would  rather trade for strange though is by beard comes in thick and goes gray.It also grows fast like my hair use to.

It is just pain having to wear hat all the time from the elements rain,snow and even sun.I am always wearing a ball cap.

DId someone say my name in this thread?

As for baldness, I'd say women (and gay men) are probably attracted more to it as a phallic symbol more than anything (at least that's what I've told my husband since he began his chemo treatments). 


Hope that was calm enough since this ain't H&S.

Hmm.  I thought human males all had external genitals.   There must be exceptions.

The symbol not necessarily the reality.  Must lead to a lot of disappointments.  (looks back at Centurus, yes it really must).

No, we started down there, and just keep going lower without digging.  It's one of our specialties.   :D ;D
