What you wrote is just vibes + armchair certainty. Hair loss measurably shifts how people are perceived (you can learn it if you read the studies I linked), and those shifts have downstream effects (dating, confidence, social treatment etc). Some guys look great bald, many don't and pretending "head shape doesn't matter" is silly. Hair frames the head and face. Take it away and you're exposing proportions people didn't notice before.
Your claim is basically "if I wouldn’t be upset, nobody should be" and that's not how humans work. Baldness is a real negative signal in a lot of contexts, and "everyone suffers on apps" doesn't erase disadvantages.
Acceptance is great, denial dressed up as pragmatism isn't.
- deadbabe 10mo agoIf you don’t look good bald – a head full of hair isn’t going to save you. If you truly think you don’t look good bald, you can do a million things to pull attention away from your chrome dome. Grow a nice beard, build a fit muscular body, no one is going to care about your bald head. Some men even appear sexy with a balding head, because they’ve accepted their fate and are just leaning into the style instead of doing comb overs or spraying on hair in some futile attempt to hold on to what is leaving them. Even hair transplants give off some insecure vibes, so make sure they are done to look as natural as possible.
