I'm not saying a bald head is ugly, I'm saying baldness is generally not attractive, as opposed to neutral or unattractive. However, when given the choice, a bald head is very likely to be considered less attractive than a full head of hair. > we aren't hardwired by society and culture to see baldness as a unattractive trait At least historically, baldness rarely occured before "peak mating age", so it's not a trait that was strongly selected for. That said, it is a trait that is strongly selected for in today's dating market. https://hypebeast.com/2021/4/tinder-data-study-man-with-with... > A poorly kept head of fuzz, sure, make sure to shave it well, but nobody I know thinks that you're "uglier" because you are a man and have a fully shaved head. Nobody you know will tell you this. Like I said, people will lie about this to keep the peace. Experimentally, outside of the social context, the impact of baldness is quite substantial: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7037739/ |
