This is the most blackpilled episode of television in history.

Really don't get why you wouldn't go on finasteride and minoxidil if you're balding

Worked for me and completely reversed my thinning hair within like 6 months

Homer looks like Drump

doesnt it have pretty bad side effects? is hair really worth worse health

>This is the most blackpilled episode of television in history.

uhh I dunno about that. Lots of balding supervisors and higher ups at my company.

>>212504653
Hair itself is not, but the self esteem that getting your hair back can give you makes a huge difference to your overall health.

The risks from fin are terrible if it happens to you but 19 times out of 20, there are no real sides.

Losing your hair young can cause major depression and lack of self esteem, that will ruin your dick worse than anything.

>>212504653
You can get sides but if that's the case just stop doing it or lower your dose (permanent PFS shilling shit is a meme though)

Only side I had was my balls slightly hurt the first day and then nothing since then outside of the 1 month in "dread shred" (which isn't really a side just part of the process) where your shitty dying hair shreds to get better stronger hairs in

That looked fucking brutal and made my hairloss look a lot worse than I thought it was but it quickly grew back.

Nothing wrong with being bald it's part of life but people should at least give fin and min a go to see if it works for them if they even entertain the idea of wanting to keep their hair

>>212504653
yes

>>212504576 (OP)
The entire episode was just mocking bald dudes' insecurities. You could write the same episode but make the formula magically turn Homer into a tall dude instead and it would essentially be the same episode.

>blackpilled

The episode ends with Marge holding Homer in bed singing "you are so beautiful to me" you fucking dumbass. It's the opposite of blackpilled Simpson and Delilah is one of the best episodes of the entire series

i'm thinking of shaving my head so that it will be easier to pop pimples on my scalp.

>>212504610
side effects can include erectile dysfunction and loss of libido
if you stop taking it, you typically lose a bunch of hair almost immediately
it's a nice subscription service I guess

Why the fuck haven't scientists figured out how to cure baldness yet? They've pretty much cured AIDS which is an actually insanely complex infection, so why not baldness? Should be easy for them at this point

>>212504610
The downsides of minoxidil are dry skin and possibly low blood pressure or heart palpitations that stop immediately upon cessation.

The downsides of finasteride are endless and often permanent. I would rather look like an orc than put that shit in my body.

>>212504856
Humiliation ritual

>>212504874
In reality, there is about a 95% chance you will experience no sides. Losing your hair in your 20's has far more side effects.

>>212504907
No big pharma money. No insurance company will cover your bald ass head but they will recover your HIV.

I was always jealous when Homerts got his hair back. I was baskin in his delinquency when he wasB. O LAWD

I like being bald my head gets itchy when I let the hair grow back

>>212504576 (OP)
No. The most blackpilled episode in TV history was when this same plot happened in Seinfeld but worse. George literally turns his life around, becomes more confident, happy, etc. after getting a toupee. The very fact that George was no longer miserable caused Elaine to fly into a rage and attack him, destroying his toupee in the process. Immediately afterwards, his entire life falls apart again.

its more about spreading the lie that physical appearances are all that matter, that some physical attribute will equate to success. that class mobility is possible.

the reality is success is solely about having generational wealth and who you know.

>>212504907
AIDS isn't even real bro. Not once person has died from "AIDS" itself but numerous diseases associated with a weakened immune system.

i've been tired of the simpsons longer than its been on air

>>212504926
How is that humiliating? Youve never been in a relationship, have you?

>>212504820
Tallness also correlates with success.

>>212505079
it really doesn't.

I was showing clips of the Simpsons to my kids and realised that a majority of the things I know about the world come from that show. what is he zoomer/ alpha equivalent of this?

>>212504957
Wut? Big Phrama has invested billions into curing baldness. The problem is that it's an extremely complex issue that stems for natural biological processes. Most men will experience some degree of balding by their 60s, even if they don't lose all of their hair. It's a hormonal thing.

I tried it for a year or 2, barely made any difference for me. I have a bald spot, who cares. I still fuck.

>>212505079
Probably if you mean in the range of 5'7'' to 6'2''. Meanwhile the amount of 6'5''+ guys I see working shit jobs in Walmart or fixing my car is insane. These are complete losers that 4chan is convinced are brutally mogging manlets on a cosmic level.

Only poor losers can't afford hair transplants, that's why baskin fundies don't care about the science behind it.

>>212504576 (OP)
It's a good episode, it shows how stupid society is to prioritize people with good image, ignoring all the risks they pose.

>>212504961
Rock.

Why did homer simply not buy another bottle of dimoxinil?

>Most men will experience some degree of balding by their 60s


I thought the consensus was that if you don't start balding by 40, you're probably not going to.

>>212505072
I haven't no. Bit I have head full of hair.

>>212506057
Men generally have more testosterone than estrogen. Test, over time, eventually kills hair follicles given certain conditions. Some guys experience this super early (i.e. in their 20s) however generally most dudes will see thinning as they age.

>>212504907
They haven't figured out aids, cancer, diabetes and there's zero research on endometriosis. Endo is fucked up that ruins women's lives but nobody has ever done any research on it. Thing is, cures don't make you money.

>>212505244
>who cares.
you do, retard.

>>212506057
Your hair begins getting thinner and less dense literally by the middle of puberty. This goes for men and women. No human has better hair at 55 than they did at 16. It may be that for some people the rate is so slow that it takes decades to notice but it's still happening and that is not the norm anyway.
Hair loss affects 100% of humans

I smell a burgeoning new cosmetic surgery market.

>>212504907
There was recently a big breakthrough on treating hair loss in UCLA. They said that they believe the treatment will produce full “terminal” hair rather than the peach fuzz variety produced by other contemporary miracle-cure lotions and potions.

But of course it takes time to make this available for everyone.

>>212504907
because death is inevitable even if the medical industry pretends that it isn't. death is literally the foundation of our being

>>212507648
This is so dumb. Why is society wasting millions to make guys feel less insecure when women are suffering from endometriosis and other chronic conditions?

>>212504610
Just get a hair transplant. They’re insanely good these days and only drawback is that you might have to get 1-2 more over the course of your life and even then they’ll probably have mRNA injections to treat baldness within like 30 years, so you only need to buy time until then.

You have to go on fin and min both before and after they do a HT you fucking retard

>>212507828
This is a false dichotomy. Treating hair loss does not mean there isn't treatment being researched for endo. I personally suffer from prostate problems where only "cure" seems to be removing it. But it would not help my case anyway if I would complain about flat chested women improving their self-esteem with breast enlargement surgeries.

DHT has a huge impact on libido

>Serum dihydrotestosterone concentration was the only independent hormonal predictor of the frequency of orgasms; an increase in concentration of 1.36 nmol/l (about 2 SD) corresponded to an average increase of one orgasm a week

it also affects other sexual markers:
