Are you, like me, starting to go bald? (Just at the edges you understand...) If so, who do you blame? Apparently it's nearly all down to stuff we inherited from our mothers - if you want to know if you'll end up bald, look at your Mum's father - or so they say.
But now there's some evidence that we can blame our dads too: https://www.dadtalk.co.uk/news/bald_men_can_blame_dad.php
But what's so bad about a bit of baldness anyway? Something to be proud of perhaps - how do you feel?
Well, it looks like I "inherited" mine from my father. But then, I seem to have both good and bad things from him, and on balance the positive things certainly win out. Looking at the photos, mine's hanging on a bit better than his, but that's not saying much π
I think it's more acceptable going bald these days. No need to resort to a 3-strand comb-over (... my old Chemistry teacher), just cut it shorter.
