Balding in the 50' and 60'

I bet it was way worse back then since a full hair was the beauty iDiel and the symbol of young, the world wasn't politicly correct back then too, I bet that if you were balding in your 20' and under people would consistenly laugh at you and people would have judge you for anything

No different than today then.

Pretty sure that 50+ yrs ago the world was less superficial. With the memory of the aftermath of the 2nd world war still fresh in peoples minds most people would'nt really see baldness as a big deal. Back then people were married with kids in their early 20's. Probably worse in the 70's and 80's when longer/bigger hair was in fashion.

I know this is about actually being bald, but when it comes to bald-ing, at least now we can feel that we have a fighting chance whereas back then, there was nothing you could do.

^ Yeah, fighting it did me a lot of good... lol.

But that could actually make it harder to accept.
