Do You Have White Male Relatives That Didn't Go Totally Bald?

How many balding Caucasian guys on this site have fathers and grandparents whose hairlines lasted longer than average, and vanished in, say, their 60s? What about male relatives that currently possess or died with full heads of hair ala Ronald Regan?

Caucasians come in all skin colours. Google it.
Caucasoid is the actual terminology, and from what I've noticed, all caucasoids bald at the same rate, whether white or brown, Indian, Mediterranean, middle eastern ect. I live in an area with lots of Chinese and noticed that they thin later in life but hits them hard past 40. The women don't fare any better than the men.
My father in law is Slovak and is a norwood 1 at 85 years old. And he's white. My boss is 63 and dutch and a norwood one. A coworker of mine is 65 and a norwood 0.
Not many men in my immediate family, but my father was balding in his 30s. I didn't start until my late 40s. I'm white anglo

my grandpa is in his late 70's and still has a full set of thick grey hair. Hair loss comes from my fathers side unfortunately

My father is currently 55, he has a Judge Napolitano hairline (Norwood 0). My hairline currently resembles my grandfathers (who still has his hair even though he is in his early 80s), which is slightly receded 1.5 norwood. My mother side of the family who isn't white actually has hairloss so RIP me.

50/50. There's no rhyme or reason in my family as far as hair loss is concerned. My father's brother and father...full head of hair. My grandfather died at 85 with a full head of gray hair. My dad's bald and was incredibly thin by 30. My cousin is very thin, yet his brother at 38 has 0% thinning. It seemed that it was either all or nothing until this point. I broke the pattern. At 38, I have the slowest hair loss.

My father is 55 with a NW2 with only some age related diffuse thinning.

My uncle is 42 with a NW4V.

I'm about a NW1.5.

I hypothesize that Eastern European white males with blonde/light colored hair probably go bald the most aggressively.

I know a Ukrainian guy in his 60s with blond hair, NW1.5-2. It has nothing to do with hair color and everything to do with how sensitive your body is to 5AR2 as well as DHT, how much DHT your body produces overall. There's a reason why Asians go bald at a rarer rate but they grow beards at the same rare rate.
