A few years back the hottest woman I ever dated admitted later she was intrigued by me because she read that men lose their hair because of extra testosterone, so she thought with all that extra testosterone pumping through my veins I'd be a better lover than the average man with a full head of hair.
I don't know if the part about the testosterone is true or not, but I'm rolling with it! :x!

sounds like a good one to me. if it works, go with it bro!
-
That are even two myths combined but if it gets you laid take advantage of it ;D
-
Does that also go with the myth that bald men have more body hair?
-
No shortage of body hair, no expert either but I understand DHT is responsible for that as well.
-
It's funny how we lose it on our heads' and gain it everywhere else!

pics or it never happened!!!
on a side note I saw something on youtube to this extent... who knows?..

Having more testosterone is less indicative of a positive boost in sexual drive and more indicative of an unhealthy boost in sexual drive, such as rape or child molestation. Fortunately, baldness is not directly linked to testosterone, seeing as old men with little testosterone tend to be bald. Also, 5-alpha reductase is the real culprit in balding.
Sex isn't very important to me, and I certainly don't want people thinking my bald head means I'm a hump machine. I do not want to attract people who are attracted to me for that reason.

I think you need to do some more research. Yes, you are correct that 5-alpha reductase is the main cause in baldness as it results in a decreased production of DHT, which in turn causes baldness. Though 5-alpha reductase also causes an increase in testosterone. Therefore, balding men can have an increase in testosterone over men with hair.
In regards to testosterone and sex drive, testosterone is only one piece of the puzzle. A man's rate at converting testosterone to estrogen creates his hormonal balance, which leads to sex drive. This is not the cause for rape and molestation. That is a byproduct of someone that has a serious issue of determining of what is right and what is wrong.
