38 without any significant other is really difficult.

Stop attributing baldness in this.
This negative thinking is dangerous and
We are not here to depress each other.
If thats the purpose..
This platform has been defeated.

I see you got a pack of dislikes for this, but you are right. This forum is supposed to be a help and support forum. It does seem like people are typing some depressive stuff in here that doesn't really match the word "support".

If he was depressed..
Why he was in bald shaven looks.

I can promise you there are tons of people who don't even have 1 gram of guts to even do buzz cut.
He was in f*****g shaved looks.
He had well maintained french cut too.

He was rocking some sort of style.

Not expected from a person who is not syle conscious.
I would have accepted that if he was cueball.. but not here...

Prepare to pump some extra logic next time.
Well said.

I dont think baldness would make anyone kill themselves.

Im sure though it was a small factor in the equation in that it may have hindered him in the dating world. Id say this guy though didnt do well there because of othr factors

Yes it can. Baldness leads to daily sadness, reduced social life, maybe even every other activities that has to do with going outside is reduced as well. Daily sadness can turn into a feeling of depression. Finally, a feeling of depression can turn into suicidal thoughts, and, the person may or may not attempt and fail or succeed.

I'm not really sure how you can agree with that dude's "don't attribute this to baldness" post but also agree with this post.

It's a reasonable assumption that the social consequences and self-satisfaction (or lack thereof) that come with with Androgenetic Alopecia were a catalyst for his depression

I actually did not agree with his part of the post that this is not attributed to baldness.

It's this part:
We are not here to depress each other.

This platform has been defeated.

Then he goes on to get bombarded with dislikes, which is pretty nasty behavior from those who did. But I agree with him, and I think the rest of my reply highlights what I agreed with him. I was clearly talking about the support part of his post.

Bald men do have a history of jumping into volcanos though.
Empedocles jumped into Mount Etna. We know why. hehe

I'm not so sure, I think it's more common that you'd think, especially among young and severe cases. Losing a part of your identity, especially at a young age is harder than most people can imagine.

Look at the number of dislikes to someone that doubted whether
given the choice people would choose death over life without hair.

You see an ugly old man eh? sh*t, I had that diffusion when I was about 24.
What if you ARE an ugly old man—and you're only turning 19! —"just shave it bro!"
Men don't need cancer to experience the 'devastation'. It's just BOOM. —"c'mon just hair bro!"

I have to post this Islamic Hadith cause I spent way too long trying to recall and find this story:
The angel then went to the bald-headed man and said, "What thing do you like most?" He said, "I like good hair and wish to be cured of this disease, for the people feel repulsion for me." The angel touched him and his illness was cured, and he was given good hair.

Repulsion. Disease. Illness. Then an article about male baldness comes out and you get this:

I've commented here before not to write off your life before living it,
but let no one say we don't have a legitimate reason to feel depressed.

...about dat cure doh.

I think it is fair to say

If this guy was good looking,

There is zero chance he kills himself

Zero

Please, now my pale, acne-ridden face is even bloated due to finasteride and minoxidl.

Fair enough. Nothing between the sexes is 1:1 especially in attraction.

But it was the women that compared herself, not me. She was the
one that said she looked like an ugly old man. Well I say 'What
about a 19 year old that looks like that?" Why can't he be insecure?
He might have to live with that for the next sixty, seventy years.

Are you going to quantify the degree of suffering? Like men suffer 65%
the degree to which women suffer. That's heading into the "Why are
scientists even trying to cure hair loss when cancer is much worse." or
the "Bro, your hair loss is no big deal. Imagine if you were a woman!"

I do agree with you if you are saying women have a more difficult
time attracting men when they are bald. But certainly you can agree
that men must also have to look good. What I think may even the scales
is that men have to do it inconspicuously or else risk negative judgement.

P.S. Runninghair doubted baldness would make anyone want to kill
themselves and so that counts men and women sufferers alike. I think
there's gotta be some guy out there that let this type of sh*t break him:

Impact is all about trying to come to a consensus on why baldness matters and how it affects our lives. It's not a support forum in the sense that we talk up the condition and give each other compliments for our chrome domes. There are other forums which do that, like Sly Bald Guys, and you are welcome to join those if that's what you seek.

While this forum has a negative overtone, the honest discussion here is cathartic and in my impression quite therapeutic for the members. In many cases, members end up moderating their viewpoints, going from thinking baldness the end of the world, to seeing it for what it is: an unfortunate condition that doesn't end your life, but cuts your youth short, limits the quality and quantity of social goods (sex, friendships, jobs) you can procure, and unnecessarily constricts the paths your life can take.

I think most of us are of the type that can't deny what's going on around us. Suppressing arguments in the name of "supporting each other" will do more harm than good.
well thats one half, the other half is a support forum (the website banner is "consumer hair loss information and support). it's also underneath a section of forums called "coping with hair loss"

it's completely honest here though which imo is true support

A women said she liked my eyebrows. When I told her I plucked them she
laughingly said 'woah, ego much.' That's coming from someone that plucked
her own eyebrows. "But" she would argue, "That's not equivalent!"

oh i totally agree. all that feminist double standard stuff is infuriating. i think you are just conflating it with actual different standards genders have, like hair. hair is obviously more important for women.

Not that the debate is particularly important as hairloss is horrific for anyone, but in terms of desirability at least balding has far less of an impact on women than men. There is much more support for women with hairloss as well, for men the vast majority of the non-balding population treats it as a joke. Even much of this forum treats anything less than a norwood 3.5 as bliss. Not a single one of my male friends was positive about my hair transplant, I wasn't even going to tell them but my best friend ended up telling all of them he can to make fun of me and most criticise me for not just going bald (at f*****g 22).

I'd date a woman with hairloss as long as she was making some semblance of an effort to control or conceal it. Even if she was bald and wore a wig. On the other hand if I was a women with equivalent looks to myself (5-6/10) there is no way in hell I'd give a post-norwood 2 male a chance unless they were extremely rich and bought me nice things.

I am sure it is horiffic for women to feel like they're cursed with an issue that puts them in a far rarer situation than a balding man, but it's hard to argue that it has a greater effect on them.

Again not trying to offend, but in terms of myself and other males I know they would still respect, empathise with and could be attracted to a balding or wig wearing woman, while most women I know (mostly around my age of 22) regularly point out bald guys and tell me it is disgusting or how creepy they look.
