I submit to you: is this even a debate? Of course baldness is good for you.
But don’t look at my bald head (shown in the picture). Let’s look at the facts.
In a recent study the Washington School of Medicine found those whose hair began thinning by age 30 had a significantly lower chance of contracting tumors. Even more impressive: “Men who had started to develop bald spots on the top of their heads as well as receding hairlines had a 29% to 45% reduction in the risk of prostate cancer.”
The reason? Possibly testosterone. Men who have more testosterone bald faster but they also seem resistant to tumors. The study certainly has holes in it and more study needs to be done but I’m taking the results and running with them. I’ll be laughing at all you full-head-of hair people in 20 years.
