    There are a couple of good hairstyles that benefit from a little balding, if it gets to much just go full bald. Its just superficial in the end anyways.

      from the way i’m interpreting this meme, it’s mocking the people that do actually think like this. ofc there’s a whole life waiting for you whether you have mpb or not, but some ppl are superficial as hell and go “it’s so over” as soon as there’s a sign of baldness

        those new research chemicals for hair loss pop up every year with lofty promises, and always end up being nothingburgers when the results come in.

        if you care about it, try the treatments already available. they seem to help most people.

    Man, my only regret about shaving my head was that I didn’t do it 15 years sooner!

      Bald early to mid 30 dudes are currently all the rage as streamers.

      The rest have become vtubers.

      It’s rather funny watching the slow take over of bald bros on twitch and YouTube.

    At some point in their life most men have to make the greatest decision in their life… Keep their hair or keep their erection. I’ve started shaving my head!

    I started taking pills for it a few years ago. It was ridiculously easy to do. I did it online, it auto-renews, and it’s an easy chewable I take every morning.

    I think a lot of guys have the impression that hair treatments are bullshit, because for a while there they were. But the new shit works, at least for me.

    No side effects or downsides for me. My hairline is just paused, even rewound a little bit.

      This the stuff where 2% of users lose their boners, then 2% of that 2% don’t get them back once they stop taking it? Nah I’ll take the chrome dome.

        Do you think maybe there’s some kind of demographical overlap between people who take hair pills and people who were going to lose their boners anyway?

      When I see people complaining about losing their hair to male pattern baldness I’m thinking “just take finasteride” or “why don’t you just take finasteride” or “just block the DHT this isn’t some inevitable thing and that’d probably help so why don’t you just do that?” But I’m not a testosterone enjoyer so I lack their perspective on things

        It’s not that simple for some men, but for some other men it’s exactly that simple. I’m sure I’m a little lucky, but it was such an easy decision for me with no downside.

      Have you noticed a loss on libido? My understanding is that those pills reduce testosterone, which can reduce libido and everything else t does for men.

        Ok, but I’m not lying.

        Do you think I’m advertising or something? What would be my motivation for lying?

          I don’t know anything about you or these pills but typically one would tell a “lie” like that as part of their overall campaign to cope. The point isn’t to deceive others but to bulwark a worldview that emotionally benefits the person to hold in some way (ie, “I was smart to take these pills, wasn’t taken advantage of at all”)

            Ok, well, no need for me to cope with anything. I’m not being taken advantage of. It’s been working for six years.

              It also kept tigers away for six years! Personal anecdotes are not meaningful when it comes to something like medical efficacy.

              See, the simple fact that you’re telling me those things when clearly I don’t give a single fuck tends to suggest the contrary, but of course it’s not conclusive and again, I don’t give enough fucks to actually find out.
