My honest answer: you're very bored.

I wouldn't reject her on those grounds. I had a girlfriend who occasionally used to lose small patches of hair because of chronic fatigue syndrome. It bothered her, never me. I always thought she was completely gorgeous. If the lot had fallen out, so what, it still would have been her.

Mmmm ... the only woman I've ever seen that I thought looked good with a crewcut was Sinead O'Connor, but she shaved her head voluntarily so I'm not sure if she strictly counts.

if she is attractive, the baldness wouldn't matter, if she isn't... well the curing the baldness isn't going to help me converting into thinking she is attractive :|

Some pull it off insanely well.

I guess it's the same rule as for guys, headshape > all.

I think it has more to do about if they bother to maintain it than if they are going bald or are bald.
I think some women can pull off the look rather well.

Baldness is totally not my preference regarding to looks but still I would not consider it as a turn off. Bald girls can be cute as well.

Totally totally off-topic but this strikes a serious nerve with me. CFS doesn't explain baldness. CFS is itself a disease with no proper explanation. Baldness, on the other hand, especially when not obviously some sort of normal genetic pattern baldness, has many, many causes, and should be a point of alarm and questioning, not acceptance, of a diagnosis that's worse than useless. It's worse than useless because it only serves to prevent further examination of the person's medical problems.

Mate, I dunno entirely, it was a fair few years ago. Doctors messed her around for years, accusing her of hyperchondria - it wasn't until she was older that the diagnosis was arrived at. She took tablets for her thyroid, I believe (and perhaps the hair loss was a reaction to it). The hair would grow back - it never was a great amount. She used to get incredibly tired - but very frustrated with herself, which drove her on. I didn't want to pry, she wanted to be seen as normal. She didn't eat a special diet. She used to get incredibly cold at times, which was always very worrying.

But she never lost a considerable amount of hair - my point was that I wouldn't have cared had she.

Boo is known around these parts for making spam or joke threads.


And to answer your question, no I would not date a bald or balding girl.

Why not?

What if you were already in a relationship with someone and she started to lose her hair?

Maybe because he doesn't find it attractive. :)

Yeah, but whether someone has hair or not tells you so little about them. Other than the fact that their head will probably get cold... :?
