Pinnacle of Evolution

Current scientific thinking is that the loss of hair the human race has experienced (in our evolution from apes and early humans, assuming one believes in all that) is the result of a specific evolutionary need. Less hair means fewer disease-carrying parasites, better hygiene and better health.

If that's the case, men (and women) who are losing their hair represent the next link in the evolutionary chain. Sort of like the X-Men, but without the whole "mutant" stigma.

Thus it's only appropriate that:

Professor X
You are Professor X!
You are a very effective teacher, and you are very committed to those who learn from you. You put your all into everything you do, to some extent because you fear failure more than anything else. You are always seeking self-improvement, even in areas where there is nothing you can do to improve.

Which X-Men character are you most like?

I was very happy to hear that we bald men represent the next link in the evolutionary chain. Where were you 20 years ago? What a great line for the ladies.

20 years ago? That would be first grade. Thinning hair couldn't have been further from my mind back then.

Same with "the ladies" - at that age, they all had cooties.
