Ping Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Doesn't affect me. I am always amused, however, about how people have the audacity to tell other people how they should dress or style their hair. These are often the same lesser intellectual types who insist that men in Thailand over a certain weight or age are perverts (whilst also inferring, as a matter of simple logic, that men of a younger age or less weight are not). It doesn't take long to work out who these immature individuals are on these types of forums - they are the ones with these simplistic, opinionated posts. If a bloke feels comfortable with a combover, good luck to him - it is his right, no matter what others may think. If a bloke feels more comfortable cropping his hair short, good luck to him too.

Ulysses G. Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I am not gay and I am not bald, but plenty of bald men look good.Bruce Willis is one that springs to mind. Bruce Willis is a fat ugly <deleted> Who gets laid waaay more than you do. if you're not gay, can you explain why you know so much about Bruce Willis and his sex life????? He's a rich, movie star.

TheMountofVenus Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Well, I don't about the other ladies on this board but I would laugh pretty-much in the face of a "suitor" with a combover. Can't you all compare other, more interesting, parts of a man's anatomy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone is happy with a comb over the point is....what else are they happy with....what thought process is it that makes them happy wearing what is clearly a poor attempt at fooling other people into thinking he's not bald.......we know he's bald, does he think he's fooled us? Is it a satisfactory mental state to comb ones hair over and seriously think you are fooling anyone? Is it a good idea to try and fool anyone.....they may be happy but happiness is not everything, especially when the person is living in a world where the only person he's kidding is himself.

I think you are having a bash at using an argument of logic. If that is the case, you can apply the same to women wearing lipstick ('...a poor attempt at fooling other people into thinking she has lush red lips... we know they are not lush red lips, does she think she's fooled us?'). Apply the same argument to makeup. Of course, your response could be, 'Well, I don't like women to wear makeup or lipstick'... but hopefully you are not that shallow as to miss the point. I don't know what I would do if I were balding, but I'm darn sure I wouldn't appreciate other people telling me what hairstyle I should have. Just as I have no intention of wearing Gucci suits wherever I go just to appeal to the fashion-conscious. It is incredibly impolite for people to deride others' vanities, dress styles, habits, etc. Who are these people to judge - what gives them the divine right of declaring 'bad taste'? We are all perfectly entitled to our views, but to create a public thread in a Thai forum about such an issue is close to the wire in terms of forum rules, is in bad (arrogant) taste and reflects poorly upon the maturity of the person. Think about it. What was the point of the OP? Was it to garner some support for a childish attempt to denigrate no-one in particular? Was it to offend those readers of TV (and there are bound to be many, given the number of members) who actually use the combover style? What valid point was there to post this bit of tripe?

submaniac Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Ummmm....combover "alternative"----> http://www.yanhee.net/eng/btct/btct_hair.asp It's like $300 USD. I asked when I was there for..."other medical reasons"...I asked "just in case" it ever happened. However, NO ONE in my family has ever gone bald, either mother's side or father's side. However, there is a genetic history of Alzheimer's and senility. So while I may one day not know who I am or where I am, I will still have my hair.

wilko Posted February 13, 2008 Author Share Posted February 13, 2008 Hair transplants……well I hope they’ve come on from back in the 80s. I used to work in the music industry, and there was one particularly “difficult” artist, who turned up one day with the most terrible hair transplant. They had stuck little tufts in straight rows across his head….it looked DREADFUL…but of course no-one could say a thing. This situation continued for a whole year….sniggering behind his back averting eyes etc until one day he and I were having a “heart-to-heart” (quite rare for this guy) and I was about to suggest that he get rid of the tufts, when he said…. “I hate being bald, I’m too young for this….I had a hair transplant a year ago, but no-one’s noticed, ‘cos no-one’s said a thing, but don’t say anything will you? Anyway I don’t like it so I’m going to get it removed ……..” I breathed a sigh of relief….mumbled something about it being a good idea and then went back into the studio and told everyone, which was greeted with a round of applause.
