I already said why...when it happens it's due to a hormone problem that is not natural or does not show up until old age.

The hair part of the question Prax.
Why do you think women don't naturally go bald, but men do?

Im just saying it's a greater percentage with men and with women usually is the result of a hormone imbalance or something like that

One large scale study in Maryborough, in central Victoria (Australia) showed the prevalence of mid-frontal hair loss increases with age and affects 57% of women and 73.5% of men aged 80 and over. In the United States the figure is around 23% of men and 10% of women.[citation needed] Male pattern is characterized by hair receding from the lateral sides of the forehead, known as "receding hairline". Receding hairlines are usually seen in males above the ages of 25.

Short answer- Testosterone level in men is one of the main causes of baldness

In men, for instance, there is a much higher level of testosterone than there is in women. In men the high level of testosterone makes them more prone to developing ‘male-patterned baldness’. This is something that women are not that prone to simply because of the fact that their level of testosterone is much lower.

Following is a little more detail


Now let us go a little deeper than simply making testosterone the cause of male-patterned baldness. This is because this hormone cannot directly be blamed. The main cause of male-patterned baldness is an enzyme known as ‘5 alpha-reductase’. However, it is this enzyme that is responsible for transforming testosterone into a chemical known as dihydrotestosterone (DHT).

It is this chemical that actually causes hair loss in men as they grow older.

But it's not hormonal with men? And which hormone or lack thereof causes baldness?

Paul made it pretty clear.
Nature tells us God long hair is for women, and short hair for men.

No, my sister. We know that men's hair doesn't stop growing while still short.

But to answer your question scripturally, look at what Paul said about the issue in 1 Cor 11:

14Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?

If you travel around the globe and look at the thousands of different cultures and subcultures around the world, it is almost a universally accepted practice that the women's hair will be longer than the men's. Do we think thats just by accident? I think not.

What Paul is saying in scripture there just pretty much confirms what we already see with our own eyes.

Thank you. I finally got it.

I've always liked longer hair on a woman where it frames their face.

I don't like "butch" styles on women.

But boy, it's a loooong way from that article to a position of "uncut hair or hell."

"Ole Time Pentecost" has always used an association-type method to try and prop up extra-biblical positions.

I personally feel long hair on a woman is quite sexy.

So there you go.

I've associated long hair with sexuality so I guess that means that women should cut their hair short because some men associate long hair with the bedroom.

If the "proof by association" arguments proffered over the decades by ole time pentecostals have any merit at all ... then the women should start cutting their hair quite short.

I've never understood this statement.

If men didn't cut their hair it'd be long too, so what does nature have to do with that?

What nature tells us is that men have beards if they don't shave and women don't (for the most part -LOL).

Hair would be long on men just as women's by nature!
