Bald as a Scapegoat

[PikturePurfekt]

I was sitting here procrastinating about doing a paper for university and I had the thought boy since I started going bald I seem to have trouble sitting down and getting started and then I paused and thought about it some more and it's not like before I would go to a mirror check on the status of my hair before I would do a paper or anything like that.

Am I the only one who finds themselves unjustly blaming  the bald for everything just because it's the easy choice?

Great point.  I think many many men do that.  You have a bad day ok let's blame the hairloss.
You lose a girlfriend, it must be hairloss.   You ate foods you didn't like and thus got unhappy but find a way to
blame your lack of happiness on hairloss.   
I used to do that in the first 2 months I shaved my head.   It took me some time to realize that I was sad because it was the first 2 months away from my family.  I had never lived on my own before.

I'm pretty sure that your SLYness isn't to blame for all your problems...... and I KNOW it's not responsible for your lack of punctuation in your nearly unreadable run-on sentence.

Touche! You get in the paper writing mode, and all goes out the window.

Good for you for taking my comment for what it was meant to be and not getting all pissed about it!

Now keep those run-on sentences out of your paper that is due!

No, it's not, and I don't buy it. It's a feeble excuse.   

Being bald, or going bald is not the cause of your problems, you are the one who controls your thought process and how you go about handling things.

If you're gonna tell me that baldness, whether natural or self-inflicted, is going to stop you from getting on with your life and enjoying it, living it, then you need more help than just this site.

I am skeptical of your post from the get go anyway. I'll leave it at that, and if it's you, you know who you are.

My advice is to go shave the noggin' smooth, and get on with life.

No.

There are lots of people very ill, dieing, living in poverty, living in war zones, and they still don't blame their situation, but get on with life as best they can.

attitudes to life go far deeper than being fed-up because you're bald.

The only thing stopping us from achieving what we want is ourselves and our own attitudes, certainly not being bald.  If we use being bald as an excuse for not winning, not succeeding, not getting a partner etc then we're just disillusioning ourselves

Right on, Rob.     

Some of these guys need a good kick in the pants.

I think the point of my post has been missed which I will no doubt chalk up to the aforementioned run on Sentences.

Just expressing the ease of projecting a flawless life if not for the hair loss.The obvious realization that of course in the end it means absolutely nothing and life would have the same challenges regardless.

Oh well

[xnewyawka]

It means absolutely nothing and life would have the same challenges regardless.

Glad to hear you get the point we put across.
