Happiness
John forwards a list of reasons men are happier than women. I am now off to see what WonderWife has to say in reply... I like reason number 29 especially seeing as I have adopted the hairstyle I intend to keep until I drop dead.
29. The same hair style lasts for years, maybe decades.

Ahhh, but it makes me happy to be able to change my hairstyle frequently!

And I would be happy to have hair! Well, more hair. I am waiting for special pills of the future before taking action.

Or if you are German it lasts your entire life-time!

Like Nick I have adopted the shorn look, on account of a slow but steady follicular retreat from my head.
I think there should be some kind of unspoken code amongst gentlemen. At a certain point, and each man knows for himself what that point may be, there comes a time when even the most meticulous hair care cannot conceal nature's true design for your head. When that day is apparent, you need to face reality and abandon deceit in all its forms, and simply get on with your hairless life.
There are a lot of guys in my office who are losing their hair, and they wander up to me and say "I wish I had the guts to shave my head too. You manage to pull it off, but I couldn't do it." To which I feel like saying "Who exactly do you think is fooled by your comb-over right now??" Gentlemen, you can get away with any look you like, so long as you're confident and remember to do your laundry regularly.
Just DEAL with it. The upside is, you can wear snappy fedoras and nice suits again, because hat-head is not a concern.
