In what way does nature teach us that a man's long hair is a shame?

If you observe an older man who has no hair, does he look unnatural or just like an old bald man?
(no offense to you testosterone-fueled chrome domes out there)
If you observe a woman who has no hair, it looks unnatural. Your first thoughts are along the lines of 'burn victim' or 'chemotherapy.' And her first thoughts are to get to the wig store.
It is in a woman's nature to care for and attractively arrange her hair.
It is in a man's nature to ignore his hair, or keep it out of his way.
It is unnatural for a man to consider his hair to be an important part of his public presentation of himself. Most men look at Grandpa and realize that they had better not become too emotionally involved with whatever little hair their creator has been bestowed upon their heads, for this, too, shall pass.
From the dawn of time militaries have recognized the disadvantage of long hair in combat, and have proscribed short hair on soldiers.
In many cultures, men with carefully arranged or longer hair are/were prostitutes, homosexual, or both.
