true, Gates probably thinks that baldness is funny. Maybe thats why he has chosen Balmer as his own replacement as head of MS.
I must admit that, when I was not balding, I also considered baldness as something irrelevant.
But it is important. Aside from the negative psychological impact on the affected subjects, I have said many times, that baldness is a life threatening condition:
millions of bald men and women are using risky drugs to treat baldness. These include of course Finasteride and Minoxidil, whose long-term side effects on young people are not known. Finasteride is suspected to increase the risk of having aggressive prostate cancer, although this is being overlooked by the healthcare community. Time will tell what is the real risk.
