Ok, I think I'm calm now...
Labrat (and anyone else who is interested),
I'd like you to take a look at some pictures of me:
Lynnette's Pictures
Now that you have looked at the pictures, I have a question...
Are you saying that if I told you I'm bald and I wear hair,
that it gives me back the sexy confidence my hereditary genes have stolen from me,
that I tried other options but wasn't a candidate / or they didn't work,
that you can pull it as hard as you want and it won't come off
that you will never see me without it,
that I wear makeup almost every day,
that I've never had plastic surgery of any kind,
that no one would ever know my hair wasn't real unless I handed them a magnifying glass and showed them where to look...
Are you saying that if you knew these things, you wouldn't get to know me better?
Actually, no matter what you are thinking, the real answer is no. I'll tell you why at the end of this reply.
If by chance there is a woman (of this earth) who you deem worthy of your efforts and attentions, I feel very comfortable in assuming you would want an intelligent, classy, secure, self sufficient, stable, attractive, fiscally responsible, successful, honest, fun-loving, sexy, physically fit, healthy, age appropriate mate? Assuming the answer is yes, I'll move forward. Let's say you meet this fabulous woman - it's your lucky day! Since she IS intelligent, classy, etc., it's really safe to say that she is looking for the same things in a partner that you are. So far, so good!
You have already established the fact in your earlier response that you want a "deeper, romantic and more genuine"relationship and that's great to hear! Since the dream girl you have met is intelligent, etc., she is going to want to take her time to get to know EVERYTHING she can about you. Likewise, since she is also looking for a real, true love relationship, she will WANT YOU to know everything about her. See, real relationships, true love, is based on honesty, respect, trust, commitment, communication, friendship, intimacy and even chemistry. She won't want to dive into a relationship head first without getting to know ALL ABOUT YOU and you wouldn't dive in without knowing all about her either, would you? After all, you said you want a real, true love relationship, right?
My husband has known from day one that I wear hair. He's never seen me without it (ten years now). It's the same kind of hair you just saw in those pictures of one of our vacations. We have a REAL, true love relationship. He thinks my hair looks great. He also thinks I have some great physical assets and he's smart enough to know that at some point as we grow old together, they will "sag"...and guess what? He's still going to love me...and the "assets"!
Now to reply to a couple of your thoughts:
"A rug will always just be a rug -- PERIOD !! I have NEVER met one girl who didn't view a rug as something dispicable and dishonest, and also as something that makes ANY dude a huge dork in their eyes. They'd much rather a guy who shaves down and accepts his baldness like a man !!"
Perhaps you have a limited pool of women? Wearing hair doesn't make a man a dork...there are plenty of men who don't wear hair who qualify as huge DORKS. I prefer a man who is a man. He finds solutions that work for him, no matter how anyone else feels or thinks...that's a real man.
"You couldn't pay me $1,000,000 to wear even the best rug offered today. It might work as long as you ALWAYS maintain a healthy distance from people and never have any intimacy; but what kind of life is that anyway ? I'd rather just be bald and honest with myself and others."
Talk about hypothetical, we really can't test that out, can we? Mine works just fine, thank you very much. As for never having intimacy, I'll jump out there and be frank since everyone always dances around the subject...I'm in a VERY healthy, extremely active, sexual relationship with my husband. I have NO FEAR that there is ANYTHING you could do that would make my hair come off, no matter how hard you tried, during intimate moments. I don't want to draw a picture for you so don't make me get graphic, there are other sites you can visit if you want that kind of interaction.
"do YOU want to be with a woman whose tits hang down to the floor and are full of celluloid when her harness comes off, or one that had her tits surgically removed from breast cancer but FOOLED YOU with some FAKE cushions under a bra ? Or do YOU want the real deal ? How are YOU going to react when you hit the sack with either of these women and realize that they DECEIVED you ?"
I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt here labRAT and assume you are TRYING to say that you (and most everyone else) would be angry if you were lied to, is that right? (((DEEEEEPPPP Breath))) If that is your message, then I understand and agree. No one likes to be lied to or deceived, even for a one night stand. But you see, if you are truly seeking a deeper, true relationship, then you won't have to worry about this, because the right woman (whether or not she wears hair) would not lie to you. p.s. I pray for your dream woman's sake in your "real true love relationship" that she never loses a breast to cancer...or you'll be back to square one?
"Point 3: Beyonce wears a system ? So is she a Norwood 6 without it, or does this system just "enhance" her already natural hair ? I ask because there is a HUGE difference between the two, both in mine AND the general public's view of hair systems."
Is there really a difference? You've seen my pictures. Does it matter to you whether I'm totally bald underneath or I have some hair? Why does it matter? Fact is, you will never see the hair underneath so there is no difference. My answer? I'm almost totally BALD...Also, I don't think you speak for the general public, they don't know I wear hair. They only know about the people who wear bad hair poorly.
"Point 4: ... Or are you talking about women who are looking for real romance and a real potential lifetime partner ? If you are talking about the latter, then I can GUARUNTEE you my friend that they will NOT want that ridiculous wig on your head!! The good ones will tell you they accept you as you are and love you for what's on the inside, and it will disgust them if you are so fake and insecure that you need this stupid rug on your head to go out in public. But the gold diggers and fake one-night-stands will not mind in the least because you're just another discard to take advantage of, or a UTILITY that they see as a machine to provide them with an easy life while they think about other men with hair when they get
horny."
Women want you to do what makes YOU satisfied. I'll accept a REAL man no matter how he chooses to deal with his hairloss. It will NOT disgust me (or any of the other hundreds of REAL WOMEN I KNOW)if a man wears hair well. Instead it will impress me that he cares enough to recognize what he really wants and do something about it. And...trust me when I tell you that it isn't your hair that makes women horny, I'm sorry you have that impression. giggle giggle
At the beginning of this reply / book, I wrote:
"Are you saying that if you knew these things, you wouldn't get to know me better?
Actually, no matter what you are thinking, the real answer is no."
WHY?
Because ANY intelligent, classy, secure, self sufficient, stable, attractive, fiscally responsible, successful, honest, fun-loving, sexy, physically fit, healthy woman who takes even the slightest bit of time to get to know you, even while trying to take into account the lack of expression and frequent misunderstandings in an electronic environment, would very quickly come to the conclusion that it wasn't worth HER time to let you.
