It doesn't bother me and I don't care. My husband is balding...it's not something I focus on and only think about/remember it when threads like this come up. It's really a non-issue.
No definite answer for me. Because it depends on the man. What looks good or acceptable on one man will look like a mess on another--and it's subjective. The messy one may have many suitors over the supposed stylish one.
Examples.
Some men I found sexy had fit bodies-muscles. Some I liked were fat.
I like stubble on some men, whereas clean-shaven looked best on some others.
I liked guys with good hair, and some that had shaved heads.
I am not a fan of hairy men in general. But my current crush has hairy legs, and armpits I think. It's sexy on him though. lol then again, I think everything about him is sexy. lol
So, depends on the man in question.
In terms of marriage and having a balding husband, I think it would take getting used to, but nothing something to sweat, because I am assuming if I married the guy, his personality was a big winner for me, which he'd still have despite hair loss. Some guys I liked weren't much to look at, but their personalities made them-looks and all, very sexy.
I do not like bald guys in the sense of finding them attractive
Baldness does bother me to the extent of caring whether my partner is bald as I've dumped quite a bit of guys for seemingly having signs of early male pattern baldness.
However, the last guy I was seeing was shorter than me and no hair at all and it didn't bother me. He was so insecure about not having hair anymore and his height, that he worked out like crazy and looked like a machine. I was too fascinated to stare at his muscles to even notice the bald head.
I'm interested in the total package. it's difficult enough to find a great guy without automatically eliminating any man with thinning hair from consideration.
Plus, balding is supposed to be related to high testosterone levels. I'm perfectly happy with macho men.
I am going to add this, though: if he is bald because he has shaved his head to show off the swastika tattoo on the side of his skull, I'm going to hold that version of bald against him and not date him.
Meh. It's better to just shave it all off if he's losing it.
But honestly? It does nothing for me, especially if he has a goatee or an earring. The first is too 90s and the second is too Mr. Clean. Not a big fan of bald head/sleeve tattoos, either. Too much like a skinhead or inmate.

I'm bald. Been shaving my head since I was 22 or 23. I always had a short crew cut before years before then. It's not hurt me at all and really, I don't understand why guys worry about this. There are plenty of women that like shaved clean heads, and plenty that don't and really want a thick head of hair. Well, I was never going to have a thick head of hair (even as a teen), so I would never appeal to those women anyway. That's fine. Focus on what I can control and focus on the people that like the bald heads. It's nothing to stress over.

I don't understand:
You go out with balding guys then dump them? Or you only go out with guys showing no signs of balding, then inspect daily, if loss found = dump?
