My theory is bald men are too yang, and too yang have a sanpaku nature if imbalance, it’d be interactive to see how many child rapping perverts are bald
Are bald men more virile?
Testosterone increases sex drive at the cost of a thinning head, so the story goes. The truth is a little more complex.
Think of Bruce Willis, Andre Agassi or Michael Jordan, and you’ve got three famously strong, masculine men with plenty of female fans. They also have something else in common: they’re bald.
It’s often said that bald men are more virile. The popular theory is that they have higher levels of the male hormone testosterone, which makes them more masculine and increases their sex drive, but they lose their hair at a younger age than average as a result. The truth, though, is a little more complex.
It is true that balding is dependent on testosterone. Back in 1960 a Yale doctor called James B. Hamilton studied twenty-one boys who were undergoing castration. Shockingly this was sometimes done to boys diagnosed with behavioural or mental problems. He followed them up, some of them for as long as 18 years, and found that they showed no signs of developing male pattern baldness as they aged. On the other hand, men of the same age who were still intact, and therefore producing testosterone, already had receding hairlines
Hamilton wasn’t the first to discover a link between testosterone and baldness, both Hippocrates and Aristotle had made the same observation centuries earlier. Hamilton’s finding suggested that high levels of testosterone might lead to baldness, but in fact the level is irrelevant, providing there are some quantities of the hormone present. Castrated men, who have almost no testosterone, may retain their hair, but men with low testosterone levels can still go bald.
That’s because it is not the amount of testosterone circulating in the bloodstream that dictates baldness, it’s down to genetics. Several genes are thought to be involved, all resulting in hair follicles becoming particularly sensitive to tiny amounts of circulating testosterone.
The process still isn’t fully understood, but it involves an enzyme that converts testosterone into a substance called dihydrotesterone, which causes the hair follicles to shrink in some people, possibly by choking off their supply of blood and nutrients. As the follicle shrinks, the growing cycle gets shorter and new hairs become finer and finer until only the finest so-called vellous hairs remain on the scalp. Eventually the follicle becomes dormant and no more hair is produced. This starts on the top of the scalp and then moves down over the head in the characteristic shape of male pattern baldness. Bald men are genetically more predisposed to be more sensitive to dihydrotestosterone, but the follicles on the chin are unaffected by the hormone, which is why beards continue to grow.
