30's women, how many are flat out turned off with hair thinning at the back, and how many are fine with it?

Boris Johnson is a world leader, in case anyone missed this fact. People will marry world leaders literally no matter what they look like. I see him brought up over and over again on LS. Not an amazing example for age differences. And yes, as hair goes he's a Muppet. So as this thread goes he's an even weirder example, LOL. 

Not just men who are world leaders. Rich businessmen. Rich former athletes/movie stars, whom look good for their age, yes, but there's no way they are on the same playing field of their 19 year old super model of a wife, heck, even men who are younger like that, like Cristiano Ronaldo I feel are getting what they're getting from the women they're getting it from because they're billionaires, just look at Georgina Rodriguez, then look at their age. He's like 12 years older than her. That's almost 20 years older!

I remember when I was 22 and I had just gotten done with playing soccer with my friends. We'd hit the local shopping mall and we'd sit at the tables, only to watch women our own age married to men who were ten, twenty, thirty, forty years older than them staring at us and checking us out. Men who could barely walk because of how old they were, but these guys owned brand new mercedes-benz and Audis, meanwhile, we had to pool our money to buy a meal  LMAO.

The world does truly belong to rich old men.

No Boris's hair is his crowning glory, no sign of thinning there...

Guys.

Jeremy Meek is...Jeremy Meek. Come on now. 

The examples being brought out for consideration here are (as usual) among the most famous, most powerful, and/or most astoundingly beautiful men on earth. Literally.

If you do not meet those criteria such rules do not apply to you. I am terribly sorry, but the reality is, you are going to have to have...

(cue horror movie drastic high-point dah-dah-DAAAAAH music)

...a personality, some interests, hygiene, realism, and a degree of social skill.

(horror movie girl emits high-pitched scream)

So for God's sweet sake work on that. And yes, look your best. Your personal best. But do not expect world's most powerful man, pull 20-years-younger tang results because well, the Rock!!! and Boris!!! and weird Tom Cruise!!!

Boy please.

And with that we all ignore CaliGirl who is only a woman (and therefore either does not know what women want, or is too old to know what women want, or must be too fat or ugly to know what women want, or is lying about what women want) and continue down the LS rabbit hole for pages and pages of exactly the same escalating argument we've had one here nine thousand and sixty times before...carry on, I'm off to grab some popcorn.

Actually my wife is quite attracted to The Rock. However, it's worth noting she is in her late 40's, like me. She is attracted to some younger stars and some older stars as well.

MHO many women are attracted to the overall package. Being a "big guy" can be part of that package for some women, even if you're not a celeb. Of course, many women are attracted to K-Pop stars too, so clearly not all.  As CO stated 4 pages ago, all women are different.

MHO thinning hair will not matter much IF it is outweighed by other factors, some of which may be fairly subtle.

I'm attracted to Sean Astin.

Attracted as in, even just now thinking about that, well, never mind. There was a reaction. We'll leave that right there. You're all grossed out enough.

Sure I'm an old creature now (by LS standards) but I was lathering for that fine boy when I was 25. (We're close to the same age.)

Oh my GOD, he's so little...and his voice...and his eyes are so...oh...man.

Literally nobody believes me. Nobody.

All I can say is, I'd never kick Sean out of bed for eating Lembas crackers.

I swear I'm not a horrible uglified desperate little boil-riddled desperate troglodyte, LOL. I'm told I'm quite gorgeous, particularly my eyes.

Oh well. What do I know...I'm a woman. On LoveShack. LIAR!!!

(P.s. My husband knows about the SA thing and he thinks it's hilarious.)

He's still to die for despite the fact that he's only a few years younger than my mother, to be honest.  That man must have been fathered by Adonis Himself to have been made without a flaw to him.  It will be a long, long time before Hollywood gets another guy half as attractive as he is. Even all of these early 20s muscle-bound new actors that are storming those Young adult movies have no hope of becoming the next Brad Pitt.

We all know that a full head of thick hair is the ideal. However, a bald man who doesn't let that distract him from being a badass is hot. And it has nothing to do with the hair or no hair, really.

Look at Joe Rogan, and Putin... being bald/almost bald sure doesn't shake their confidence. It probably did at some point, but they finally accepted it, embraced it, and rock it.

I'm bald and never once impacted my confidence, when it started thinning I just shaved it all off. Not much can be done to prevent it. I really don't care much, if someone can't accept it I guess they are not for me. Plenty of women love it. Do I miss hair? You bet, there are times I want a hair style and can't do it because I'm bald.. But on the flip side, I don't have to hassle with hair cuts or shampoo anymore.

[contel3]

I didn't read the whole thread, but I guess I can answer your original question. Keep in mind that is just my personal preference and I am not speaking for all women. Also, if I have strong feelings for someone, I really don't care about their hair.  

A small balding spot at the back is really no biggy. I don't really like when it's thinning at the front though. When it starts changing the guys face shape.

I dated someone once with a big bank account and thinning hair and he still did the hair replacement surgery.  It's not an either/or.  Some women actually love bald men.  Just be yourself. If someone is so concerned about your hair that she won't give you a chance, she's not the women for you, clearly.  

ROFL

 

unfortunately:      "a thinning bank account and  BIG hair"  is far more prevalent

OK but a small bald bit at the back doesn't just stay the same.... It leads to a bigger bald bit and the front starts to go...

A few people mentioned The Rock as someone (some) women think is hot.  I had to Google him and found a guy who's neck is wider than his head.   This is deemed attractive?

Thanks! haha, in all honesty the thinning hair and receding hairline negatively impact self confidence more than shaving it off. It was kind of weird, when I shaved it all off there was this freeing feeling and oh I don't look half bad bald! I'd say the only drawback was getting used to putting sunscreen on my entire head. 

When I first shaved it off people asked me what/why.. I'd simply respond well my hairline was on a race to my butt..

This is true, but the age it starts, and the speed it progresses is different for everyone. That being said, it doesn’t change the fact that some women care, and some don’t.

 

But most importantly, worrying about people that aren’t attracted to you is a waste of time and energy. You won’t be dating them. Why worry?

I guess if we use this as the only guide for hairloss, I am between a 2 and 3, as I don't have the shiny chrome cap and I most certainly do not have that level of front recession.  My dad is 70 and might be a 4, but he does not have near the receding hairline like that.  he just has the spot in the back.  My grandpa has a very full head of hair, no loss.  I remain rather confident based on relatives that I will NEVER go bald or anything close to that, but seems the shiny spot in the back could become reality.  However, this was not like an "all of a sudden" thing.  Thus the reason for the ENTIRE thread.  thinning in the back to most apparently is a 5 alarm fire and I need to shave immediately.  I don't think you would find even one of my women friends that would tell me to shave my head, but they also will not tell me how much they dislike the hair loss.  

My dad still has a lot of hair and no, he will never shave it.  He is 70 and doesn't care!

I am specifically asking 30's women.  I realize much older women are probably more accepting.  I am 41 but generally do best socially with early 30s women.  I think the youngest is 29.  Women usually guess my age at around 35.  I am a naturally confident guy but admit that I have the typical MPB spot at the back that is about 1" round that is thin.  I don't have a massive chrome cap on the back of my head but it's obvious none the less.  Obviously it bothers me a bit or I would not post about it.  

Otherwise I am very healthy, in shape, a runner, good teeth, attractive, etc.  

I hear women say all the time (I think many lie about it) "it's more about the person".....lol  Yet 90% of the guys that score much younger women either have a huge bank account or have all their hair!  You can nearly write this to the letter.  

I just cannot quite figure out where women draw the line?  I have asked somewhere else before and responses were mostly "just shave it!"....  Like I HAVE plenty of hair and looking me from the front, you would have no idea.  I am not about to shave my head or even buzz it.  I am just trying to get some honest responses from the age group I am most interested in.  

Why do you do much better socially, with women a decade younger? I was always turned off by men who were trying to "score a younger woman" and were overlooking women their own age.

A man who came back into my life last year, used to have a gorgeous head of hair, and I was disappointed when he shaved it (before we lost touch). He still looked good, though.

It's his muscularity and physical perfection that causes men to admire him and to envy him. I could never grow as huge as he is, not to mention he's like almost 7 feet tall or something, so that guy could easily beat me up in a fist fight. Who do you think women would feel more protected by? Exactly, by the Rock. Not to mention the immense amount of hard work it takes to reach The Rock's physical perfection, first of all there's gotta be the genetic potential for a man to be able to become like him.

Also, he got paid like 80 millions last year, and he's made about 200 millions if not more in the last couple of years. That's hot. I can't even make a million a year and that's sad.  Many women would date that guy either for his looks, his charisma, or for his money, so yeah, I'd say The Rock is one of the most eligible men in the world.

And he's managed to do all of that despite being an old man. Dude is like 50 or something, and he's in a much better shape than most men who are 20 years old.

If he worked in construction and had weaker social skills thing might be different. On looks alone, he's not that much I imagine (although he does seem to have a nice face/friendly smile from what I can tell as a male).

Once again unless you're a true Chad in terms of looks, it seems like it's the complete package that counts.

Dwayne Johnson is surprisingly well-spoken, though. Not really the typical meathead.

Often, but not always. I have a thinning spot, but it's pretty much stayed put and not grown. Often, you are right though. My dad, like so many men, had MPB.
