Is it just me or do alot of people associate Bald Men with the creeps, weirdos, molestors, and pedos?

You're absolutely not wrong that, indeed, much of the "human" race does bizarrely believe this correlation exists.
I suspect though it's mainly the bald men with the George Costanza (or similar) look that they associate with the creeps, weirdos, molesters and paedos.
When you go around looking like that, you end up traumatised. You WILL get accused of being a paedophile. But for anyone to make that accusation, is just bizarre and personally I'd legitimise the removal of civil freedoms from any individual who falsely makes such accusations.
I'm not talking about complete strangers, I'm talking about my friends, sometimes my best friends. They won't hesitate, and just say, "you look like a paedophile!".
They don't mean any harm, as 99,9% of people when they joke about a guy's hair loss. They just don't realise what they're doing, yet. One of my friends' temples are starting to fade.
We both know a morbidly obese girl, and oddly I've never seen him or anyone telling her: "you look like Jabba the Hutt!" (She really looks like Jabba).
Again, it's OK to laugh about it when it comes to hair loss, and not OK with any other physical disability or deformity.
If you let your friends get away with this and don't break their faces as well as eviscerate their insides (you have nothing to lose, you are bald), then there are some SERIOUS problems with you.It happened to me a few times. It depends on the length of my beard, the longer the beard (associated with the bald head), the more likely I will get accused of looking like a paedophile.
And when you look at paedophiles mugshots, almost none of them are bald.
But you know, society thinks we can't get laid and that we look creepy and ugly, so we must be molesting children to calm our urges!
Ah the infinite kindness of the NW1 men and the ladies towards balding men.

Yeah, look who's talking my friend :uglylol:....there are some SERIOUS problems with you.
Just went to the kitchen and made a scar on my face with a knife to resemble a bad boy more. Yolo
Honestly, I drank 2x of my oral minoxidil dosage today just hoping that I get an heartattack.
Yeah, look who's talking my friend :uglylol:....
You were saying?...
As the guy above pointed out, getting all defensive and angry about it is only going to result in them targeting you more frequently because they know they can get a "funny" reaction every time.
Also, if they truly knew and understood how sh*t and powerless it feels to be bald they wouldn't say these things, but they don't. It's not all their fault, society and the constant barrage of image obsessed mtv and reality tv culture and media has conditioned them to think this way. I have friends too, who make ignorant, douchey comments like this, not just about me, but about other guys they see who are bald or going bald, as if it's their fault or their choice that they look like that...
It's very true what another poster said the other day on here, there has never been a worse era to be bald than today's image obsessed, media-brainwashed generation. From birth we have been constantly bombarded with images of perfect looking men and women on tv and magazines who live in fantasy worlds where everyone is rich and good looking and no one is bald, poor, fat or ugly...
Don't expect any empathy or understanding from any nw1s or women (including friends and family), it's totally beyond their comprehension.
i dunno why you people think confronting someone who cannot empathise with you at all is going to help, they say but they dont mean it, even i ve said things about people's appearence just to have a laugh and i am not proud of the fact that i did, but i never meant it. its the same with friends, and when you show them or even pretend that you dont care, yeah thats when you show them who is boss. call it being a hypocrite, but trying to confront will only make matters worse.
steve jobs and the koch brothers.
balding = capitalist.
