I shared my hair problems with a VERY helpful friend of mine who is older and really wise than anyone i have met in my life.

He said their are 2 treatments that can "cure" male pattern baldness and named finasteride and min.

This is why we will NEVER get a cure.
NO ONE KNOWS how hard it is to even maintain, let alone cure hair loss.

They all think min and finasteride will help us all.

f*****g hell RU,dutasteride,finasteride,spironolactone,etc so many product works but we only need to use them topically as side effects are no joke.

Still we have NO better vehiclecfor drug transport.

most blue pills opt for the hope strategy, and employing the black cap approach.

I used to work with a guy that wore his cap every where, I wouldn't be surprised if he wore it while in bed having sex. He would literally wear the cap under his hard hat, while taking off his sweater in a change room. EVERY WHERE. poor soul was so torn by hairloss, but demonstrated a confident person while talking.


A lot of these copes may seem content in person, but are absolutely torn.

People laughing, do you ever automatically assume that they're laughing at you? I do, all the time.. Sometimes they're probably not, but a lot of times I feel like they are. I work retail, so I'm constantly around people. Makes me want a job where I'm not so much in the public eye :/

You think you are the only balding man out there.
If you would have full hair, then you see a bald man, what would you do. Would you laugh at him.

Not really.. I have most of my hair still. NW2 with decent density. I don't laugh at NW3+ guys walking around. Nor do I laugh at people with other flaws. I don't even laugh internally at people. I literally gain no pleasure from such things.

It happens very often, mostly because most of the time they ARE laughing at me. I look like Gollum, so it's hardly a surprise. A few weeks ago I walked into a bar and a guy screamed "Skinhead". Cue laughing. I'm powerless, I can only try to pretend nothing bothers me.

Dante, I honestly don't think other people notice you. Nobody notices me.

I don't think people really notice you. People don't notice me. People have their own issues they're focused on. I probably went into 10 businesses today (from gas stations, to the post office, a couple stores, etc, etc.) and I can't remember what even one of the people I saw in those places looked like. The only way people will notice you is if you really stand out in some way.

I don't think everyone who comes across us is laughing at us or can't stand us. I just think that employers have LITTLE interest in us and opposite sex have NO interest in us.

Mr 'positive' here

Hey winnyblues, check this out:

http://www.the-scientist.com/?artic...itle/First-Data-from-Anti-Aging-Gene-Therapy/

It's coming winnyblues whether you like it or not. And I'm sure that when you get older you'll be standing in line for your injection to reverse your own aging process.

I bring this to your attention because you used to argue with me that they are not going to cure the aging process anytime soon. You used to grumble about how there isn't enough resources and space on earth for people if they stop dying off. I have a recommendation for you given your concerns: do not have children because we 40+ citizens may not be dying off.

I'm already in touch with these scientists and discussing these treatments. There's not a damn thing you can do about it and none of the scientists working on these highly promising anti-aging concepts care one frog's sh!t what you think or feel about their research efforts.

What if you don't look tough but pathetic bald, like I don't know 90% of bald men. What do you do then?

Nobody cares much.

The overwhelming majority of women are not romantically interested in bald men, some employers will discriminate against bald men, and bald men can't be socially popular. That's it. That's what hair loss will cost you. But people are not going to hunt you down like your some Frankenstein monster just because you've lost hair. People don't like bald people but they don't hate bald people enough to put a lot of energy into hating bald people unless you try to pick up on women, get hired, or climb social ladders. If you try any of those things you could get slapped down. But if you don't hassle people then people won't hassle you. That's my experience.

I can kinda understand it.

I have an aversion to old people. I find the old and less mobile ones a little creepy. Theres just something about the coffin dodgers that puts me off - like I'm looking at my own mortality.

Maybe some people have the same thoughts with bald people who are ugly.

OK but do you truly and literally hate-on those old people? Do you bother with laughing at them or rag on them?

Maybe I have more of a live and let live attitude but even when it comes to people who make me feel a little wary I sort of move on past them and then forget all about them. I don't have time to waste ragging on strangers on the sidewalks or in stores. I just sort of take care of my business and move along.

Sure I may notice someone if he stands out in a significant way but I invest very little time or energy into the situation. For example, now that you've got me thinking about this sort of thing I saw a guy with green hair today but I can't remember anything else about him, where I saw him, or anything else about the situation. I saw him, thought his hair looked peculiar and that was it. I didn't laugh at him or invest any time into his situation. I saw his green hair, thought it looked peculiar, and then I went on about my business. No biggie.

My thing is that I can laugh at people as long as they will not find out.

If people are taking the piss I will have a laugh about it but if the 'victim' were in the room I wouldn't out of respect.

I guess its about consideration for how other people feel.

Same with someone who is morbidly obese. You may think they are gross but at no point would you tell them because that would ruin their day.

Maybe, but it could also even help them to realize they have a problem, that they need to do something about.

Fat people know they have a health problem - its like telling an alcoholic that they are damaging their liver.

Fat people, alcoholics, smokers, I just don't get them.

It's like they have this extra room for error to destroy their looks, or some of them just don't give a f***.

I know how obsessed with looks we are on this forum, but from what I see at my workplace, the vast majority of my coworkers are trainwrecks in the looks department.

Half-balding with scalp full of patches grown out, huge disgusting belly (one woman can barely fit through the doorways), taking a break to smoke cigarettes every 20 minutes.

Yet they still have their job, some of them are still married (to equally disgusting partners of course). I see them wandering in the office like zombies and it depresses me, how can they have so little respect for themselves?

Anyway, I'm on my way to the gym (never thought I would ever say that), I want to get as far away as possible from the deplorable state these people are in.
But it must be quite liberating to give zero fucks.

However, I'm like yourself - I try to improve myself and my looks as best I can: wear nice clothes, get a good hair style, have a nice body, have facial hair that hides the weak points and accentuates the good points of my face etc.

I always thought of obesity as an American problem--sounds like you guys in Europe are seeing it now.

It's not even just the obesity--its the f*****g morbid obesity..its just crazy.

People are handicapping themselves on purpose.

why not cut off a leg.

Every once in a while i watch those shows where they start working out with a trainer and dieting--its amazing how quickly JUST changing diet can effect over weight especially young over weight it just pours off.
