Man, you sound heavily depressed!

So I said: More woman are into bald man than into heavily balding Man -> Your response: Wrong! Woman would choose a fat man over a bald one. Do you see your the flaw in your argumentation?
I said looks aren't JUST about hair (of course they are also about hair!), if your hair sucks, try to focus on the things you can control. That will spare you a lot of the depression, also its the best way to regain confidence.

Then you say, i desfigure something that I call "not a big deal"? I never said, hairloss wouldn't be a big deal. It is for many people, for you it certainly is a huge deal!
And Yes, you have to compensate things that you have a lack of. Thats how the world works. If youre rich and an a**h**, that might work for you. If your poor and an a**h**, that definitely wouldn't work for you.
You have to compensate your lack of attracting factors by other attracting factors. If your fat and horribly dressed that will decrease you chances by a million percent. If you're thin an horribly dressed, people will see that
way easier. Same with hair. To what extend it will word for you, since your confidence seems to so smashed is debatable.

What has happened here? The first guy to write shaved his head, he felt good about it (even got a date) an than you came along telling him "you just can't be happy, bald as you are!"
Thats just mean, considering the fact that the fist poster doesn't look bad at all.

Maybe you'll go nice, that will teach you some empathy ... not everyone has to be miserable in order for you to be happy again!

What we have here is a fundamental difference in ideology between an optimist and a realist. Sometimes a realist can be mistaken for a pessimist, but they're quite different. An optimist prefers to ignore any negative in life, pretend it simply does not exist, or distract themselves with a positive. With hair loss an optimist prefers to ignore the fact that aesthetically, a man with hair, whether shaven or grown out, looks better than a bald man. An optimist likes to pretend that this is not important, and can be compensated for by getting buff.

The truth is that being (athletic, not body builder) fit is sexy, but it does not compensate for a lack of a frame for your face and head that a hairline provides, and for those with a poorly shaped head, no amount of muscles will compensate for baldness. With age often comes increasing acceptance from women for male pattern baldness, but this is no consolation for a guy in his 20s who wants to date young women who absolutely prefer hair to muscles, and it also ignores the personal impact that comes with a drastic and unwanted, and negative change in appearance that male pattern baldness sufferers experience.

A shaved head can look okay, some women will be okay with it, but lets not for a second pretend that a young man forced to shave his head due to male pattern baldness is at anything but a disadvantage compared to his hirsuite brothers.
