Condescending article

[Accepted]

Does anyone else think this is a horribly written and overly condescending article?

It's kind of stupid and backward in its logic.  Let's assume that writer's basic premise is right: hair is there to preserve heat and protect us.  Then centuries ago, human beings must have been hairier as a way of conserving body temperature.  Over time, the need for lots of hair would diminish because man developed other mechanisms like central heating to compensate for the need for warmth.  Wouldn't that lead one to conclude that a bald man has simply achieved a greater degree of evolution?

Who cares what the article says. Bald heads are clean and sexy, IMO. As a GSG, I like the look on me and other men who sport it. 

The haters are just jealous...

It's an ignorant article written by someone with an agenda.

What a boring article.

Negative Comments, statements and opinions only strengthen my persuit of a smooth shiny pate.  Forums like this make the opinions in articles like that meaningless.  Bald Rocks!

No....not even close. I change mine once a month when I just want to keep 'em guessing. It's perfectly normal IMO

I tried doing this but my camera broke!

I thought the article was pretty well written as far as composition, spelling, etc. I don't know anything about the person who wrote the article but my general belief is that people who comment negatively about entire groups of people with whom they have no real familiarity do this as a form of self-comfort. It insulates against the chill of a wasted life.

Well said, Buddha.
