this is due to Alopiecia or male pattern baldness which is due to too much dehydrotestosterone controlling the secondary sex characteristics;this is of course a male thing and is largely a function of heredity so take a look at your closest male relatives.Being a hairy 50 year old male the thing I find strange is walking down the corridor naked and feeling the wind vibrating the hair on your back.The growth of hair inside the nostrils and ears is something you learn to live with and by the time you are 50 you will have learned to cope with so much that this will not be a problem any more.

I also get a lot of complainst about my horrible hairy chest hair turning grey but I just tell them to sue me if they don't like it.Unfortunately as I am extremely neurotic i need to have my shirt button undone to allow air to my chest and my supervisor discreetly told me that unfair a s it wa s the rule tended to be that women could wear what they wanted but the dress code for me tended to be shirt and tie and that people did tend to notice;this is in a country where they need the High Court to tell them that women can not show up for work with their faces completely covered.

Hopefully,there are some women out there who find hairiness attracti e in a man and on the other side of the story I notice that bald men seem to have no probem attracting attrative women
