Excellent article.  So many of his statements are reflective of the comments that have appeared here at SBG.  Great find.

Indeed a good article. Refreshing to see one that looks at the positive side of head shaving.

I particularly enjoyed this line:
Psychologically, too, the appeal is obvious. Shaving your balding head is like breaking up with someone before he or she can break up with you. Or like marching into your boss’s office and saying: “You can’t fire me. I quit.”

Nice read. Some of the comments after the article are ridiculous.

Thanks for the article RazorX, I enjoyed it.

The article reminds me of one of the main reasons why I am a member of SBG.  So that I can help the world realize that "Hair does not make the man".  This site isn't just about fun and dialogue.  For me it is largely about changing negative perceptions about men shaving bald, and to encourage those wanting to take the leap.  What a feeling, we can help change the world!
