As Web Watch has mentioned before, we know a fair number of bald (or balding) folks.
Our friends are usually accepting of their baldness, and tend to embrace it fully. Perhaps its a generational thing, as premature balding is more accepted at younger ages than our parents and grandparents who do as much as they can to get their hair back via hairpieces, wigs, transplants, or wearing silly old-guy hats all the time.
