LYD in response in red above.
I find it incredibly sad and frustrating when I read posts that have men believing and feeling like they are a leper of sorts, amongst women, because they are losing or lost their hair. I feel like it can fuel a very negative self fulfilling prophecy, for many men in that situation. It is amplified by posts that purport the most accepted jaw angles, skin tones and body fat percentages, and rules those deemed less as essentially screwed. Men declare this is how it is for women. So other men listen and feel hopeless. They feel like they got dealt a bad hand in life and they will forever be picked last. They feel like there is no hope. I read it and it frustrates me!!!! It is so not my experience, as a woman!!! That's why I posted and wrote what I did.
I can only speak to my own experience as a woman. I can tell you with all that I am, that bald men who OWN IT, can be INCREDIBLY HOT!!! Really SUPER F'ing HOT!!!
What makes the difference? Is it his skin color, the degrees his jaw is angled, that he's 9% vs 15% body fat, NOT ONCE, NOT ONCE, NOT ONCE, NOT ONCE, NOT ONCE, in my experience, as a woman, was that what attracted me most or not!!
What attracts me or repels me is the VIBE a man radiates.
You can mix up 1000 different combinations of skin color, jaw angle, BF%, all of that...at the end of the day....for me....the VIBE a man radiates TRUMPS all of that!!!
In my experience...men that have lost their hair are put in front of a gauntlet, so to speak. Some come out on the other side with IGNF's attitude. The come out of it FULLY OWNING WHO THEY ARE! Hair or no hair, they aren't ruled by it! They are free of worry about it. They made it to the other side of the gauntlet. Now, they are busy living their lives the way the want. The absence of hair on their head isn't going to hold them back. They radiate that!!
There are LOTS of men who are horrified at losing their hair. I feel for them. They cower, feel self conscious and even ashamed. Many ultimately shrink inside themselves. Some more than others. It's so unfortunate. While they may think they disguise it, they don't. Unltimately, they radiate that. That VIBE is more repelling than their lack of hair!
A man who has lost his hair and come to terms with it and proudly presents himself as he is, and owns it...radiates a VIBE...more attractive than a super photogenic man with all his hair who has no idea who he is in the world.
It's not about a man's hair it is about who he is. Aware or not, he radiates that all day long.
Men radiate their sexuality to the same degree...owns it fully? ....or self-conscious, cowering, contracted? Etc..
It's not the hair...or lack of hair....it's the VIBE, for me!!!
A MAN always radiates who he is, whether he is aware of that or not!
