Bald Men Get More Respect

Although there seems to be a common misconception that a man can only get respect if he has a full head of hair, I beg to differ. I believe there’s a fair amount of evidence that bald men get MORE respect. Here are a few reasons why.

1. Some bald men kick butt! Think about George Foreman, Vin Diesel, Bruce Willis, or Shrek.
(He just wouldn’t be as cool with hair, would he?)

2. Self-confidence. A man who is comfortable with himself is a sexy man, and he will get respect—no matter how much or how little hair he has on his head. Going bald with dignity shows that you are sure of yourself and that your character is your strongest feature—not your hair density!

3. Women like bald men. Why? Because women are notoriously self-conscious about their own imperfections; being bald can put women at ease and make you seem more accessible, approachable, and compassionate. Women are secretly attracted to stability; they want a man who will stick with them, despite their own shortcomings. Accepting your own hair loss is a powerful indicator that you’re focused on what really matters in a person—their personality traits—and that you’re not obsessed with image and superficiality.

4. Bald groupies. There’s a growing culture of women that PREFER bald men over their coiffed counterparts. News anchor hair is great for weathermen and televangelists, but you’ll notice that this isn’t exactly the sexiest group of men—$400 haircuts and bang-stylists are not manly! Having less hair makes a man look more streamlined, efficient, and masculine. Leave long, shiny, bouncy hair to the girls—along with styling routines, ponytails, and perms.

5. Self-respect. Yes, some people like to tease bald men—however, if you can laugh that off, you’ll actually gain a lot of respect. Think about hazing or primitive maturity rituals—your ability to overcome something unpleasant gains you stature and acceptance. In some ways, you’re not REALLY a man, until you’ve lost some of your hair!
