WIRTW #245 (the “bald IS beautiful” edition)


According to the ABA Journal, “balding men who want to advance in their careers might want to consider shaving their heads.” The ABA Journal cites an article in the Wall Street Journal discussing a recent study out of the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School, which concluded, “Men with shaved heads are perceived to be more masculine, dominant and, in some cases, to have greater leadership potential than those with longer locks or with thinning hair.”

Hot damn! I love being masculine and dominant, with great leadership potential.
