Ladies, do you lose attraction to your husband or SO if he starts balding? (man, attracted)

I only learned recently that some guys are insecure about balding. It came as a surprise to me, I didn't know.
i think it's normal for men to have some small level of insecurity about it. like, it's something friends would pick on each other about.
but a big insecurity? that's not normal at all. i've seen that before and it's weird and embarassing to witness. it's a certain 'type' of person who is prone to this, too -- i can't really describe it. the same 'type' of guy who'd get plastic surgery and/or buy a midlife-crisismobile.

Huh?!
I dont know one guy that is going bald that it doesnt significantly bother him.
And what does driving a convertible have to do with anything?
I know guys that wear hats all the time if they can outside of work to cover their losing hair. To most guys it is a big deal. Anyone that doesnt know this must not know their balding friend very well. It is a very significant life change for a man.
Edit: I swear that said convertible.
re: Crisismobile
Not sure I've ever met a guy that admitted to plastic surgery.

Seriously. Women that love their husbands don't give a rat's patooty about their hubby's balding head.
Wonder what she is going to think when he puts on a few pounds, goes gray or completely bald AND has to get dentures....
My husband and 3 of his 4 brothers have been going bald or are bald and have been for 20+ years, it does not bother any of them at all. They are not defined by their hair or lack of it, his 4th brother has started getting much thinner hair within the last few years and it does not bother him either.

that's the best way i can express the stereotype of the sort of person who feels severe insecurity over baldness. it's like a certain type of guy who harbors this excessive anxiety, insecurity, and fear about whether others will think that he is good-looking.

with the exception of wide-brimmed sun-protecting hats, or wintertime hats, i don't know any guys who wear hats at all.. much less hats to hide baldness.

well, i started going bald around age 16. i was catching hell in the high school football locker room as a sophomore.
maybe other men just don't express their baldness insecurities around me, personally, because they see how few f*cks I give about my own baldness. Maybe I'm a role model and I don't even know it.
OMG, no! My husband was balding when I met him, and it totally didn't matter to me. Unfortunately, it mattered to him, regardless of what I said. He left me and the baby home alone while he took a ''business trip' and came home with a hair transplant which he hid from me for 4 days before I finally asked him why he was wearing his hat at the dinner table. It was not the first nor the last thing he lied to me about.
Now, I still don't care about hair, but I am screening more carefully for deep seated insecurity.

I didnt realize you were an elitest.
Carry on.
You people and all the ****s you give. oh boy.
Everyone that i know that truly doesnt care about what other people say NEVER say anything about "all the ***** they give"
We must associate with completely different people.

Did his hair transplant work out well?
