The great debate rages on. Is it worse to be fat, or bald? Just wondering where people weigh in on that. Ladies, would you rather have a buff dude with a shiny dome or a pudgy Fabio? Dudes, if you had to give up either your hair or your buffness, which would you go for?
Personally, if I had to give one up, it'd be the hair. I mean, chicks dig Jason Statham just fine. And a bald head's a sign of manliness, right? So that'd make me, like, some kind of ultra-man!

Fat or Bald?
I spent 5 years in the Marines. I got so used to not having hair, I'd be ECSTATIC if I'd go bald. As it is now, I leave it as short as I can most of the time… reduces my shower time, don't have to comb it, the benefits go on and on.
If you're bald, you can just apply sunscreen in the sun. If you're fat, you have to work to lose weight. There's not really a comparison.
UNFORTUNATELY, if I were to go bald now, I'd have BOTH features, bald and chubby. BLAH…
>Net
What really matters? Size. If'n ya know what I mean.
Hey, it ain't the size of your boat that matters; it's the motion in the ocean!
Yunno what looks weird to me? When a guy goes bald on the top of his head, but he's still got that lonely little island of hair growing in the front. Like, dude, why don't you shave that off?!
I'd rather be fat. I love my hair.
As for bald men with that scrap out the front, I salute them. Those bastards aren't giving up without a fight! Comb-overs are sad, but a bald man with wild hair sticking out everywhere else on the head is cool.
That celebrates the baldness more than some knob-like shaved bonce, it draws attention to it! You GO girl ^_^
…but a bald man with wild hair sticking out everywhere else on the head is cool.Hells yeah. The "street crazy" look. I'd get with that. :D

Whatever helps ya sleep at night. >:)What really matters? Size. If'n ya know what I mean.Hey, it ain't the size of your boat that matters; it's the motion in the ocean!
Bald is worse… mostly because it is possible to lose weight in all but the extreme cases (in which they chop out 80% of your stomach so you can't stuff yourself with food anymore), whereas going bald is so far irreversible… of course you could pretend with wigs and all but these are usually damn obvious :P
some girls can look really nice being a bit chubby
I once dated a girl who started at a respectable 130lbs. Cute girl, really nice. She slowly got bigger and bigger to the pont where she would whine about being around 160lbs. So eventually I just started to give her subtle reminders that I found her physically unattractive.
At least she was sexy when I did it with her, so whatev'.
There is a line between feing "full" but having the figure, and just being a fatass. And those tells are incredibly obvious (i.e. fat people are fat)
LeFarce,
Do you make a point of being THIS ignorant about fat or did someone teach you to be a bigot? Or do you just have a deep fear about it?
(And I'm not fat. I'm just an activist against fat discrimination. So there! ;) )
I'm glad you found your slightly plump girlfriend sexy at times, at least…

Real classy. -_-
Seriously though, if you find a girl unattractive, fine, break up with her. That makes sense. But don't make her feel awful in the process.
Dueeast, I wouldn't say it's discrimination in this case. No one is going to date someone who they don't find physically attractive at least a bit. I'm not saying what lefarce did was nice, but that's not really the right word.

Okay, say you're in a long term relationship with someone who has, for lack of a better term, "let themselves go". Are you just gonna kick 'em to the curb the minute you decide you're not attracted to them? If you've got a lot invested in a relationship, or god forbid are actually in love with this person, then you're going to try to delicately let them know they need to take better care of themselves to keep your, um, attention.
It's not fun for the partner who's put on weight; I mean, it's not like they don't know; and honestly they're probably very self-conscious about it. Nor is it fun to feel like you're an asshole for no longer wanting to be with your partner because of the weight gain- especially if you haven't gained weight; it feels really unfair.
If you don't say anything then both of you go on being miserable. If you try a subtle approach, it gets ignored or missed. If you come out and are blunt, feelings get hurt; sometimes irreparably.
Anyway you look at it, someone's gonna feel awful.
Well I recently got my widows peak. I do VERY well with the ladies. I think that being attractive is more about confidence than anything. You can work with what you've got just fine if you give it the right approach. Especially for men. Me I'll date about anybody who has a vagina but I'm not gon'na be serious about someone who is overweight. I take care of myself I expect my partner to do the same.
I'm already fat, so I'd rather not go bald at this point. -_- I probably would be happy to trade though. I've spent thousands of dollars on doctors trying to figure out and manage my weight issues. If I was bald, I could cover it with a wig, and I'd be able to find nice clothes that fit me.
In terms of who I'd be attractive to? I've never dated, so it's all hypothetical. I personally find skinny guys unattractive, but my sister does (or did) too, and the current love of her life is as thin as a flag pole. If any guy in my generation was interested me, I wouldn't object (or no more than my usual crippling shyness). For a long term thing, I'd just want him to take care of himself. I probably couldn't be serious about a smoker or someone who eats unhealthy (too much or too little), but not all fat people are unhealthy.

AIDs patient emo skinny just isn't hot on a guy (and arguably on many girls too).
A little more unfair is short guys, you've just got to feel bad for the 'guy' who's under 5'8" at his full growth, but most of them make fun of everything that moves to compensate for their shortcomings.
For me i'd pick bald, pick out a cool wig and stuff. :)

My sister's beau has spent his entire life trying to put on weight.

actually the trick with people ultra fast metabolism is exercise.
i used to weight 110, until i started to do more physical things, and then now a weight 125. I would be literally 110, with out doing anything, scarfing down fries and ding dongs.
my body will always eat through fat like a lawnmower, but it won't do the same for muscle.
i'd figure if i'd start doing 50 push ups a day or go to a gym, i'd gain more via muscle, but then i'm lazy.
i'm slowly progressing via next year, i'm switching to a fixed gear bike for my daily 1 mile uphill trek to campus. and then a even speedy downhill back home.
if i'd stop do anything physical, my metabolism will start eating my muscle.
