Hahaha... Ooooo I see a major dent coming in a UK male ego one day. It will happen Spugsy, don't worry you can count on it.

Oi you! Wheres my flirt! I have a shaved head as well!! Do I look like a thug?!?

Interesting thread question............

None of the replies explain why most men in bars in London are NOT shaven-headed, but many in Dubai bars are.

Do people automatically equate 'looks' with 'personality' and 'attitude' these days? When I was in my twenties, the shaven-headed look meant one thing...

"I'm hard, and I'll deck the first wanker that says I'm not........"

Still the case? Surely not?

Madam Medusa

have you been into any london bars recently...?? the guys look the same as the dubai crowd, some are shaven haired, some not...

it's nothing to do with being hard...the days of the comb-over are long gone, thank god, and a shaven head is acceptable and, as i already said, sexy...

I have mine shaved, purely for the fact that I'm gannin a bit thin on top. Nothing worse, in my opinion, than trying to hide it with comb-overs.

Squirty Cream

1. They are going bald and don't want a comb-over
2. They can't remember where they are from when they've had 16 pints
3. They want to be David Beckham (?)
4. Short, paunchy guys seem to like this look
   

Perhaps they are lemmings............??

Why do women like high heeled shoes, blonde streaks and red toenails.....generally??

Spugsy

of course not, and you go to Newcastle you'll see shaven heads all over the place.

Squirty Cream

Delicious...........! By the way - not all shaven headed guys speak Cockney or Scouse and I would point out that a lot of people would mistake a London accent for Cockney, so need to be careful about generalising.

Then of course there are the Yanks off the ships - shaven and tattoed.

Yup, every now and again, I revert back to shaved head, its so easy to keep! I think in a year or two, its going to be a permanent style, due to also going thin on top!

Mrs Bantam also prefers me to have stubble, and as Spugsy experienced with his missus, mine also wanted me to have stubble on our wedding day, but I went for the clean shaven look.

That pic of Ed Norton....just to point out that was from American History X, a film in which he played quite a nasty racist character. Excellent film, very powerful,sad ending though. One of my fave actors. Fight Club anyone?

Why is shaven headed an issue? My hubby has a skin-head and I assure you he's sometimes nice!

There again, his reasoning behind it was that at 22 he already had a Phil Collins hairline and what hair remained was ginger, so being a skinhead is the lesser of two evils...
