Bald is Beautiful [antikvár]

INTRODUCTIONThe Bare FactsIt is entirely possible to keep your hair from falling out by taking oestrogen shots (female hormones) to balance the testosterone coursing through your body. The therapy, however, does have its drawbacks. For starters, your voice will change. And then in fairly rapid succession, your dink will shrink, you will undoubtedly develop a beautiful complexion, and finally, you will grow breasts.Testosterone, you see, is the male hormone. The one you probably least want to 'balance'. It's the one that gives your voice that John Wayne edge of authority. (And he was bald!) It's the hormone responsible for the fact that you have to shave every morning. It makes your chest and pubic hair grow and probably goes a long way towards explaining why you prefer martinis, whisky or beer to white wine spritzers or creme de menthe frappée.In the foetus, testosterone is responsible for the development of external genitalia, and later, at puberty, for the continued growth of that equipment.In short, it determines the cut of your jib - it's the thing that makes a man of you.11
