Our society has a serious hypocritical double standard on its views of baldness.

I’ve seen so much talk on balding men, that it’s a death sentence for them and that they are worthless after losing some hair. It’s so disheartening and needlessly cruel. Compare that to any woman who faces a condition that makes her lose her hair, suddenly it’s “empowering”, “beautiful”, makes them a goddess.

It’s an unfortunate circumstance for anyone but we tend to build women up for it so they can be confident while simultaneously profusely belittling and mocking men for the exact same thing. And for a lot of men, it’s genetic, it’s a part of their anatomy. Any and all aspects of female anatomy are demanded to receive upmost respect, yet male anatomy is the subject of shame and horrific mockery. We need to start holding these double standards accountable.
