Howcome we're so awesome?

• Hey guys!
  Hope everyone is going good, it's been ages!! After using this forum to get over my hairloss, life has been fantastic and I didn't bother to be active on forums anymore, but recently thought I'd actively give back, which I'm going to do from here on out
  So what I did was also check some other forums like HairlossTalk etc... and what I found was that guys there are so obsessed and paranoid about losing their hair, that there's no way they're living a normal and happy life.
  
  And then there's us, guys who realised: "It is what it is, let's shave it and get on with life"
  
  Honestly, there's no better way that has or ever will exist for dealing with going bald other than just accepting it and loving yourself for the bald baller that you are.
  
  So my question is, howcome we're so awesome? How do we just 'get it', while most of the balding guys in the world are losing all their time, money and energy over something we embrace? How can we show these guys the light? haha

• All you can do is be yourself. If another balding man sees that you are going through life without allowing your hair loss to be a negative factor for you, he might just see that it really is only he that is allowing his own loss of hair to stand in his way.
  
  I have a feeling we bother so many of the guys on the other forums simply because we have accepted what they are trying so hard to stop, reverse or restore. We are happy with that which seems to be causing them misery. We probably are an enigma to them.

• You're exactly right Cave! I really think it comes down to this switch in perspective... this sort of epiphany you need to have when you realize... "Oh, it's just hair"
  I really feel so bad for those so brainwashed by media and society, always trying to live for others, unable to accept and love themselves..
  
  But hey, at least we're wise enough!

• To each is own, some guys just have a different method of dealing with hairloss. Those of us here mostly decided to just take the plunge and eliminate the issue. While we find it liberating to be free of hair there are many guys out there who don't want to take the plunge for whatever reason. We were all in those shoes at one point. It's a decision that every guy has to come to on his own.

• Each person is going to react based on the environmental factors of their life leading up to hair loss.
  
  It's great that many of us have figured out there's a bigger picture in life and that despite one's physical features, they can still live an awesome life.  Our job is to help spread what we've learned.

• Thanks for the replies guys! You're right, to each his own. I don't know about the rest of you but I wouldn't have had that epiphany and taken the plunge if I hadn't ended up on this forum... and I landed here after over 2 years of hopeless research online, only to be confronted with 'stop your hair loss now!' kinda content...
  
  @Tyler, it is indeed our job to help spread the word and the love. I'm doing so with my site hairlossbaldwin.com (still working on fixing up the site)
  I'm going to do my best to promote SlyBaldGuys as I build an audience, because it's just unbeatable!
  
  Thanks again guys, let's keep spreading the wisdom! I'll be active on here from here on out
  
  Cheers!
