    if your bald in the front- you think a lot.

    if your bald in the back- your smart.

    Pure supposition,but think about the parts of the body that everyone has hair on. The crotch, the pits, the side of the head for males and females. For men add the neck and face. What do these all have in common? They're all vital areas, areas likely to suffer damage in a fight. The top of the head, on the other hand, is rarely a point of attack.

    The benefit baldness might have offered is it differentiates the mature males from the kids. Among a group of dirty, hairy savages; a bald head might have been a mark of distinction. Evidence that you were a survivor, likely a tribal leader.

    I thought it had something to do with a recessive gene.

    I started out with hair all over but all are gone due to DHT. There is really no cure. But at this age, who cares!

    Some reason baldness is associated with social maturity and smartness. I have not seen a dumb bald person among my co-workers. May be there is something to it.

    And it created a lot of trouble in my younger days. I think the body also produces high level pheromones proportional to the DHT during that time.

    Well you are pretty lucky then. It sounds like it doesn't really bother you.
    But you also starting losing it around 50 (which is pretty good).

    How do you think you would have felt if you were only in your late 20's 30's though?

    Probably about the same. I am fairly inner directed so it wouldn't bother me to be bald any more than it would bother me to have brown eyes rather than hazel.

    My husband started losing his hair in high school, poor guy. He was smart enough to at least never do a comb over. He was VERY self conscious of it, until me. I convinced him to cut it short like Bruce Willis. He looked so much better. I don't think it will be too long until he does what you do Till.

    I have a girlfriend who's hair started thinning when she went through puberty. Its really noticeable, but we pretend its not. She has gotten a fairly large weave.

    I got Alopecia areata with my first pregnancy. The 2 spots are about the size of a quarter.

    I remember seeing Patrick Stewart (Star Trek, TNG) on the Tonight Show once advising that if you're losing your hair, just keep it short. So when my hair started thinning, I followed his advise. You've really got to watch the sides or you end up looking like bozo!

    I also think it is a good idea for men loosing their hair to shave it.
    Still not everybody starts looking like Bruce Willis..

    EXACTLY!!! Its why I asked hubby to cut it. I don't know who he thought he was kidding. But it was hard for him. He wanted to hang on to what he had left.
    And he does look like Bruce. Patrick S looks like he has a ridge on his head (to me at least)

    My cousin was visiting from Germany and I took her into NYC to see the sights. We were outside the Hard Rock Cafe where different celebreties have their hand prints imbedded into the wall. I placed my hands into Bruce Willis' prints to see how they fit. My cousin turned to me and said, "You look just like Bruce Willis." Then, before my head had a chance to swell she added, "From the eyebrows up."
