According to this painter, Baldness is associated...

[Guest]

with cannibalism??

I don't know why Painters always associate baldness with something bad... Any thoughts?

This is just another painting, but there are a lot of paintings from the last 600 years that show the most terrible things associated with baldness.

Here is the picture: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Cannibals.23232.jpg

The only guy that is not eating human meat, has hair. :evil:

Not that it has any scientific backing to it, it's a very opinionated painting.

It's obvious that the author is attempting to convey his belief that men are savages-- with that, cannibalism is ugly, baldness is ugly, etc.

God, I suck at writing. I need to read a book or something-- and stop inhaling helium balloons. (It was my cousin's birthday today, and I went through a couple balloons. My bad...)

Curious, since classically baldness tends to be associated with wisdom and civilization, undressed of power and violence. Turning the tables here?

I understand,that the moment I give up eating people I will grow my hair back,but,sorry,no,thats too much.Thats the best I have in my life,my pleasure.
Indeed,he tried to show uglyness,not that cannibalists go bald.The same some people in daily life look like bad guys from thrillers,but indeed they are not.

Haha, me, too. Except, I eat babies. http://www.eatbabies.com . Yum.

yes guys, i know that we won't get bald if we eat human meat, hahah, come on.. that was not my point :lol: LOL


I was trying to show just one example, of why people in today's society look at baldness as a synonymous of ugly, bad, terrible, assassin, etc...

just because it was showed that way in ARTS, paintings, etc, for the last 1000 years!!!... And people learned from that ART to build their opinion about a bald man, sometimes unconscientious.
