"losing Your Hair Is A Choice" - Hair Loss Talk

[buckthorn]

I noticed on the shop homepage, there is a screen that says, "losing your hair is a choice" captioning a picture of a NW1 guy.

I never complain about this site, because I friggin love it.

I would like support in removing this quote.

I assure you, I am not a whiney b**ch about this stuff, but for some reason, this PARTICULAR quote upsets me, and I am sure it would upset others.

Please don't crucify me for being a whiney b**ch. I am simply stating that, for people like myself, who have tried EVERYTHING, reading this is horribly upsetting.

I love you, Buckthorn xoxoxox

They should instead write, Losing your hair is a choice (except for those who don't respond well to meds or have side effects on them).

 

[hanginginthewire]

But even if you respond well to meds the consensus seems to be that they won't permanently halt your hair loss. So you'll still (eventually) bald, choice or not.

I noticed that statement too buckthorn but I was heartened by it as it makes me feel more hopeful.

 

[Goldee Lox]

You really are a whiney b**ch though.

 

[rafiles]

You chose the direction hair loss, now you should go other direction. It's simple.

 

[Grasshüpfer]

What? It's totally a choice.

We should really have castrated ourselves in time.

Also of all the users who life really hit with a shovel in the face, buck is the most whiney b**ch for sure.

Even more I wonder about this picture:

Is this supposed to ridicule or discourage baldites? Guess not, but that´s not a happy couple and the woman seems to think something like "Damn, the thin NW3 should have been a warning sign when we started dating........"

 

[tellersquill]

I know someone will say it as always, so I'll clarify it right here. That guy is not FredTheBelgian.

I don't view the picture like that. It's just to show that hair loss is a stressful time. Better than her viewing his balding head as an aphrodisiac which is unrealistic. But yes, I know some of you will view it as "she's making a compromise being with a average looking baldite, thinking of a hot guy." They are looks matched though, still people dream of better someone may add

The real truth is that the woman in the picture is just a well made sex doll.

His real girlfriend dumped him when he became a NW4

hahaha.... well, true true.

Any women who judges you for lack of hair is a superficial c*** who is not worth your time. And basing your entire self worth on your hair or lack of is a sign of a serious mental illness. Almost all of you guys on this site are suffering from severe body dysmorphic disorder. Yes hair loss sucks and is depressing. But there are millions of bald men out there living happy lives not spending their time wasting away on a hair loss forum.

You have been brainwashed by Hollywood and celebrities making you compare yourself to other people. Make the best of what you got and what you can control.

Life is short. Imagine being blind or deaf, or having no limbs or cancer or some other terminal disease. Now that is life altering. I understand the psychological impact of hair loss and how it can seriously mentally f*** you up especially if you are young or if you don't feel you have a good head shape.

Celebrities live in a f*****g fantasy world. Why we worship celebrities is completely fucked up.

Because you wouldn't care if your partner lost her hair.

Saint Mike over here guys.

I wouldn't. If you love someone you don't f*****g leave them because of something they have no control over. What kind of person does that make you? A sh*t f*****g person that's what. Looks fade, people age, you get wrinkles, your skin sags. A person who is solely invested in their looks is not worth the time.

I'm telling you right now, life is short, Your hair loss WILL consume you and make you unbearably depressed. You will waste time wallowing in your self pity. Or you accept it for what the f*** it is and just run with it man. It's a card you ain't gonna change unless you take Finasteride (which fucked me up with debilitating sides), do Rogaine everyday or spend thousands on transplants.

I'm glad this forum has final got a moral proprietor to finally tell us who is a good and who is a bad person.

Just what we are missing.

Wow. Groundbreaking. Close the forum, people. we have a winner. All these years, all these threads when the solution was so f*****g simple! The joke is on us, it seems!

Dude i've read some of your posts. You think you are ugly. Has anyone ever told you that you are ugly?

 

[buckthorn]

Let me think.... Oh, yes. I lost count. They have even humiliated me online by using pictures of me taken at my workplace. I talked about these things in "some of my posts". I guess you did not read them?

we should change it to something like, "losing your hair is a choice, losing your LIMBS IS NOT" with a pic of me and Dante standing over a chopped up body with rubber aprons. cool mod?

millions of bald men living happy life - MikeW ur optimistic level has blown out of the roof and went up into the space.
baldness is a big deal especially in young age

Brainwashed by hollywood - seriously, everybody wants to look good that doesn't mean he wants to be Tom Cruise. BUT BUT here we just want to be accepted by the society that's all. We don't want to attract girls (girls were never in my radar, reason 99.9999999% are shallow and picky) but all we just want is "don't underestimate us for the fact that we r balding". No matter what u achieve and do in life, there will be a curt reply which will point at your bald head.
And there's society which kills in u both ways>
1. if u are quiet, silent and less confident due to baldness, SOCIETY- hey man socialize.
2. and then when u socialize and somewhat free and more confident, SOCIETY is like - Be yourself, keep ur limits.( u r bald at your back)

that's the problem @MikeW its a dangerous game where u lose every time but the pain wud be a little less if u stay with option 1.

if u r blind or deaf, ppl will excuse u but if u r bald, they'll say ur liver doesn't function properly or u used too much shampoo or gel (Seriously, What do u know abt Science,huh? i say this in my mind)
so here's the story of our life in short, nobody gives a f*** abt our baldness and how it is caused, they will just blame us.
SO STOP ACTING LIKE A SAINT and better talk abt the reality.
The solution to all of these dilemma is SCIENCE and she doesn't gives a f*** abt what we say or do ( if u solve the code in the right order, u have the solution, that's all)

the big question is WHEN is this gonna happen???

 

[buckthorn]

Only if I can wear a sad frog mask and a hood.

dude, in all honesty, that would be the most EPIC serial killer mask EVER.

 

[tellersquill]

This guys beat you to it

 

[rclark]

It is a choice. And shame on guys who don't castrate themselves.

Because you chose not to do that (I think...) buckthorn, you made that choice.
