When's the last time you saw a bald man dating/going out with a really good looking woman?
It's rare in my opinion, even for those bald guys who still look good with a bald head.
A receding and obvious balding is clearly unattractive but totally bald puts women off too. Of course there'll be some women who will be into the bald look but it's more of a "fetish" kind of thing. Baldness is seen as universally unattractive and if you are bald at a relatively young age, your dating prospects really take a blow.
I'm in my mid 30s now and still searching for someone to share my life with. I don't want to believe all the sympathetic cries of "it's what inside that counts" and it's about confidence etc. but the reality is that women care about looks as much as men do and generally speaking baldness is not viewed as attractive. A bald shiny head is for the vast majority of women not something that turns their heads in the same way overweight women aren't going to have men chasing after them in a hurry.

I totally disagree with you on this one and don't like the comment about overweight women as I am overweight :mad::lac:

Wow.... what sweeping scathing statements. completely wrong ones too.
I can make a scathing statement too..... maybe you are in your mid 30's still searching because of your attitudes towards love and women!
what on earth has this got to do with anxiety too??
Don't talk rot! Looking "good" or "bad" has nothing to do with hairline or weight and everything to do with attitude, preference and perception.
The complaints are coming in thick and fast :lac:

FYI I dated someone last year who was both bald and overweight and I do not have a fetish for bald men. I think I am quite attractive as well. I actually fell in love with his lovely smile. I am in my 50's.
I think your comments are going to upset a few people to be fair.
As a Mr. Clean look-alike, I disagree strongly with your statements :lac:
Positive thoughts
I would be more worried about finding somebody who can accept someone with mental health problems rather than if they're bald.
My long term Partner obviously finds me attractive. Do i think i'm attractive..... nope, i'd say my eyes are to close together, my face is to long and yes my hairs falling out. Do i find her attractive.... hell yes!
My mental health problems came to a head a year after we had been together, has she ever made it an issue? Nope not once ever, even though i had a great career which i don't have now due to my mental health.
She's had a year of me before and 12 1/2 with my problems. I had a wobble 2 years ago with our relationship, but sorted myself as i must've needed my head testing.

There is bald and then there is shaved. Bald as in desperately trying to cling to long wavy strands of hair like a contestant from a re-run of 80's Bullseye is going to be frowned upon because it looks unattractive. Bald but shaved nice & low makes you 'ard and many women go for the bad boy, squaddie type look. Anyone who doubts that wants to head to my county where skinheads have been common for many decades.
But then it's all generalisation. Women are as varied as men. Whilst the OP has made generalisations so have the "non men" in this thread too about the OP when we know nothing and really he is only presenting one argument that covers some women and men. Some men are turned off by overweight women, some men are turned off by skinny women, some men are turned off by this or that. And if you think women only look what's inside men and ignore the exterior then we must come from different worlds.
It's about some men or women.
Baldness is seen as a failing in men, it has been for a long time. It's up there with a beer gut. But due to many celebrities adopting the shaven look the obvious baldness underneath it has become less of an issue. It's been associated with rugged looks, not pretty boy looks. Women who prefer a pretty boy aren't likely to want Phil Mitchell over a TOWIE reject.
Confidence goes a long way in looks but that's not always enough. Some people have stronger preferences towards certain looks. Would women go for a slob picking his nose...as long as he's confident? Probably not.

Yeah, imagine entering "mental health problems" on your dating profile. What % of women automatically click off? The same with men.
Some women look beyond that and some women have their own mental health problems so will be accepting as they are asking men to accept their baggage. And then there will be some men & women who don't want the baggage despite having their own.
Has it ever been any different? How many walk away once they hear she's a single mum or him long term unemployed or their are addictions involved?
Some women (and men) dislike tattoos. Some will write that on their dating profile. Some like certain "proportions". :blush: So, it's not always what's inside that gets you through the door and I think this is the point being made.
Must admit though due to the bolding of the thread title I was expecting this to be some sort of self help method :roflmao:

This is true: the OP has simply reflected and adopted societal prejudices which are unfortunately very prevalent. Moreover, these skewed generalisations of what "normal" should be are ruining many (especially young) people's lives. Add mental illness into the mix and matters become even more distorted and dangerous.
And of course, to think that either gender only sees what's on the "inside" is not a true reflection of reality either. The problem is that outside pressures have created a very imbalanced and confused picture.

Agreed. I'm glad I'm a bit older because the dating scene must be a very different experience now for many? Sexuality & gender have become untangled and now we have so many labels it's hard to keep up.
I can't help but feel a lot of respect for someone who only looks to the inside. For instance, someone with a physically or mentally disabled partner (and anyone who has suffered physical trauma that has caused disfiguration, for instance) who would find dating far more difficult.

Your shitty, judgemental attitude is far more likely to be a turn off to woman than your lack of hair.
I'm mostly attracted to slim, white women. I guess it's being white that does that along with the media's portrayal of beauty as I grew up.
However, the mother of my children is Asian (who I didn't meet until I was 35), and I think Queen Latifah is extremely sexy. In other words, it doesn't matter.

:yesyes:
Gregor Fisher says it all really!!!
It must be traumatic to lose all your hair at an early age, I remember being in a panic when I first realised my hair was receding in my 20s, but you do have to get beyond this and open yourself up to all the possibilities out there. Love often comes about when you least expect it, often from an unlikely source.
You don't do yourself any favours by your own prejudices against larger ladies. Maybe I'm biased because I prefer the 'cuddly' type, but I do find the obsession with women being slim, ladies fashions and its links with anorexia etc quite disturbing. Having said that, I would have been open to anyone, of any size/ability/colour/whatever when I was on my own if I felt we had enough in common. If you stopped being so judgmental, might you not be happy if it was an unexpected loving larger lady that was not troubled by your bald pate? I'm not saying because you're 'bald', you have to accept something 'lessser', just be a bit less prejudiced!!!!!! :mad: :lac: Everyone has feelings, just be a bit more understanding and respectful to ALL the ladies! In my experience, most women will value that and you might end up making two people happy! :D :D :flowers:

Gregor was before his time. With that dress sense nowadays he would be called a hipster. :biggrin:
I'm lucky in my family as the men tend to keep their hair. My dad has lots of grey and has lost nothing now into his mid seventies. Knowing my luck it will fall out due to anxiety and I'll have to head to one of those hair transplant clinics where apparently they will sow on some of Wayne Rooney's bumfluff...I wonder if there is any on Ebay? :whistles:
Whether or not you conform to our society's current perception of 'attractive' is simply the luck of the draw. Nothing you can do about that, and nothing most of the population can do about that either :wacko:. However, its my view that physical attractiveness is overridden every single time by personality and other positive behavioural attributes. I know this is also the view of the majority of people, who don't believe that attractiveness is defined by how many hairs you have on your head. So, yes, I WILL say its what you have inside, despite you not wanting to hear that - as all evidence points to that being the case. The good news is that this is something that every single person CAN do something about !
Baldness - I didn't actually realise that was still seen as important nowdays, honestly. It never occurred to me that some people out there still viewed people negatively for a lack of hair.
I love the comment from Tyke above, its spot on!

Hi, going by what you have written, I'm guessing you wrote it out of frustration. I'm guessing you have very low confidence and social anxiety hence why you've never had a relationship and have posted here. I could see how losing your hair would be another problem to add to the ones you already have. You didn't want to hear it but unfortunately "whats inside" is massively important. I think maybe working on your confidence will help you the most.
Good luck:)
First of all I did laugh that as soon as I clicked on this thread a pop for hair replacement came up they don't miss a trick :D.
As a bald overweight middle aged man I'd can honestly say I get women flirting with me most weeks and given my personality is somwhere between Jack Dee and victor Meldrew it can't be that , it's not my money they are after either unless they are after change for parking meter , fat and bald is the new tall dark and hanson's going out with a chubby means less guilt about loving chocolate for women and no woman wants a man nicking her hair dryer and spending more time in the bathroom than her .
Looks will only take you so far , paying someone a compliment or making them laugh makes a longer lasting impression than how good their hair looks.
The media try's to make us all believe if we don't look a certain way we should put a paper bag on our heads or only go out after dark , real life isn't like that it's just media bullshit , I always notice the curvy women more than the thin ones but that's just my taste.
So here's one for the ladiees me with my bald head covered in ice cream in Asda today ( yes it's actually me ) try not to fall in love , enjoy :D
Good stuff there Buster! :yesyes: My experience with baldness wasn't traumatic by any means but I did try to hang onto it by letting it grow in the back. I wore a pony tail for years. That is..... Until I watched an episode of "The Simpsons" and I saw "Comic Book Guy". It was at that moment that a cartoon version of my future popped into my brain and I decided to shave it all off! :D
Seriously though, I personally liked it a lot and I guess it showed as it really helped my social life! Guess it comes back to whats inside that counts.

On another point, it's interesting how a good looking man or woman often gets let off for their nasty behaviour simply because they are appealing to the eye. Those who aren't get condemned much quicker for the same behaviour. :shrug::doh:
Fish back in the 80s I had long blond hair , in my thirties I noticed it was thinning on top and so did my mates down the pub , standing at a bar with a light above you and a mirror in front you would feel very uneasy, once I took the plunge an buzzed it off it felt very liberating like I'd had a weight lifted , if you can laugh about it and not give a shite I don't think it makes any difference.
Terry that's a classic episode of Bottom with the pheromone spray he's utterly disgusting but you cant help but feel a little sorry for him , I shed a tear the day Rick Mayal died he was such a big part of my teenage years .
Got to disagree on good lookers getting away with things , when Golden balls Beckham got his speeding fine cancelled recentley I thought the public would go out with pitch forks and burning torches hunting him down ( people just can't be bothered anymore ) and his chances of a knighthood are about the same as Rolf Harris's :roflmao:

Yes, I couldn't believe it when Rik went. We even had a long thread on the HA board about him that I think ended up in a big argument and got closed and someone banned! :doh:
Poor Richard Richard, what a said guy...and he has lots of hair! :biggrin: Remember in the pub in the "Sad Ken" horserace one?
Richie: I'm not a homosexual, if that's what you think.
Eddie: Yeah, but you're not strictly heterosexual, are you?
Richie: Judas! I've never done it with a bloke!
Eddie: Yeah, but you've never done it with a bird either.
Richie: Well, I'm heterosexual in intent.
Eddie: The nearest you've come to being heterosexual is barricading yourself in a bedroom with a copy of Amateur Photographer and a jar of hand cream.
Richie Well I've done it mentally. Boy have I done it mentally.

.
There are things you can do now (hair transplants, etc...even stem cells may be used to reverse baldness). But if you don't want to go down that route, shave your hair (a bald patch plus long hair at the sides looks awful), get a tan and hit the gym. There are plenty of bald, muscular guys who look hot as hell (Jason Statham? Vin Diesel? Bruce Willis?).

Don't have to worry about the cup size these days but my thong chafes a bit:wacko:
That was taken maybe 10 years ago before i lost the 8 stone, but wasn't as heavy as before the weight loss.

In this part of Yorkshire we have nicknames for the different stages of baldness. When a widow’s peak advances it is known as a ‘peninsula head’. If the peninsula disappears you may get an ‘island head’. Some people may even get a couple of islands remaining if they’re lucky. If you’re completely bald on top but have long hair at the back and sides to compensate you’re known as a ‘clown head’. I knew a chap hear once who had a terrible clown head. He subsequently had it all cut off, so it was really short at the back and sides and he was a completely new man. He looked so much better and even younger in appearance. Then of course, there’s the ‘monk head’, where it is gone in a circular area on top, but still there everywhere else. Once it’s all gone, you’re just known as a ‘slap head’. Some kind locals on our estate will then offer to shine your head for a tanner. To younger folk that’s two and a half pence (it was a sixpence piece in pre-decimal coinage)! It’s never gone up, even with inflation. If you’re lucky you can haggle down to two pence (or tuppence as we say here) on the grounds that the half pence was abolished quite some years ago.
Before anybody thinks I’m being cruel to the lesser haired gent, let me state that I am in local terms a ‘peninsula head’, but it is thankfully still attached to the mainland. I am a bit concerned about reaching the island stage in case the island then votes to leave and vanishes altogether, resulting in the chaos of the ‘clown head’!
I’m also worried about my moobs. I’m concerned I may be a ‘C’ cup already. Now if you get to the size of a ‘C’ cup should you really wear a bra? Do they do those things for men? Maybe something stronger and restrictive to hide them, rather than enhance them, maybe with a more manly sporty theme rather than the flowers. I’d hate these things to go saggy and drop down to my belly! Is there a fitter that measures men’s moobs where I could get some professional advice? Surely in this era of equality there’s somewhere I can go? :wacko:

I’m also worried about my moobs. I’m concerned I may be a ‘C’ cup already. Now if you get to the size of a ‘C’ cup should you really wear a bra? Do they do those things for men? Maybe something stronger and restrictive to hide them, rather than enhance them, maybe with a more manly sporty theme rather than the flowers. I’d hate these things to go saggy and drop down to my belly! Is there a fitter that measures men’s moobs where I could get some professional advice? Surely in this era of equality there’s somewhere I can go? :wacko:
I'm thinking of making myself an Alan Partridge peephole pringle:yesyes:
Loving the bald stages and naming , clown head :roflmao: I remember as a kid singing to a bald man ( from a distance on my bike ) " hey you over there what's it like to have no hair is it hot or is it cold I don't know cus I'm not bold " kids can be such shites and I thought I was safe as my dad had hair until he died ( or at least I think he was my dad ) Khama :doh:
They do make somthing for men with saggy moobs it's called a belt .
At least we can laugh about it , and then cry ourselves to sleep knowing our head banging days are over . Could be worse could have that orange rug Donald trump wears .

Even James Bond needed a corset in his later years...:whistles:
I'm finally getting rid of my moobs after a few years of them. Mother Nature has given me a kick up the backside with getting Hypertension so it's encouraged me to make dietary changes. I'm about half way now, 10lbs down.
But should they come back I'm declaring myself gender fluid so I'm not only fashionably "right on" but able to get away with a bra or bodice! :yesyes:

Oh Buster, yes, a belt! Why didn't I think of that! :doh: I wonder if I could get something with a good width, like a double breasted Lonsdale belt or similar so it would cover each moob and flatten it? I'd really like something a bit sporty.
But I feel I'm at a bit of a crossroads in life and I could be wrong? Maybe as BikerMatt suggested, the Alan Partridge pringle peephole may well be the way to go! Maybe we should be more proud of our bodies? With the growing obesity epidemic, moobs are becoming the norm. If the pringle peephole became fashionable, couldn't women actually find moobs sexy? :whistles::flowers: All fashions have to start somewhere! I do think I've got some of the biggest moobs in Yorkshire, not that I'm saying size is everything! :lac:
Oh and that Donald Trump rug Buster! There's a strong rumour round here that it's not his original hair, but it's actually yeti hair he's had transferred from some place else, which accounts for its wildness! He's got plenty there apparently!!! :scared15:
Ah typical story here then, no return of the OP.....ne'er mind I'm sure all these wild/whacky and helpful comments are good for others to read. Anyone noticed that emoticons are all hair-less?

Oooh yes, they are aren't they! Maybe we could have some new ones designed with the different baldness stages, so we can pick whichever we feel is appropriate for us? :ohmy:
I've decided I'm definitely going for the pringle peephole with regards to the moobs. The lines between genders are certainly disappearing. I went around the town tonight with some larger mates who are in a similar position to myself. Going between the pubs we came across some lovely young ladies on a hen night. They gave us all a fantastic rendition of 'get your moobs out for the gals!!!'. It made and my pals feel 10 foot tall (that's a whopping 3.048 metres!) and reet proud of tha selves :yesyes: :yesyes: :yesyes:. And it's further proof, should you need it, that we are gradually becoming a more equal society!:yahoo::yahoo::yahoo:

There are only two responses to this type of behaviour.
1. Take great offence and log a MeToo over it.
2. Laugh and get your moobs out for gals.
Option 2 all the way for me! :yesyes:

Good point, never thought of that! :D
You can get hairy ones to but they have their added so emoticons must see bald as the real normal. :yesyes:
I don't think there's owt up with baldness, I'm actually thinking about shaving my hair extremely short anyway. I think like most things if you 'own' it then it isn't that bigger deal, easier said than done though I know.
Bald men can be quite attractive, in my humble opinion.
Vin Diesel
Bruce Willis
Ross Kemp
The Rock
I wouldn't kick any of them out of bed for eating crackers.......:whistles:
It is about confidence too. If a man appears happy in his own skin and has embraced the baldness (as it were) it becomes a non-issue a lot of the time.

They're all going to be kicking your door down now and whipping out their hobnobs.

That's just being greedy, all four of them! :winks:
I feel sorry for The Stath, you left him out. :ohmy::roflmao:

Oooh Mark, now there's a thought, or rather a HOPE. I'd better get some extra teabags in then! :yesyes:

Phrenology isn't it? I've always wondered whether you get a false reading if you have banged your head the day before? :winks:
So, the turkey is a metaphorical turkey then? Heh, you could do a load of them in a collage in all different colours and get it in a museum :yesyes:

Terry, well it was actually a fluffy toy hat, but you know I'm confident if you prod my scalp enough there'll be a couple of giblets there (though it could be the most disappointing squeeze of a breast ever).
