Message-ID: <658@sdcc12.UUCP> Date: Thu, 21-Aug-86 22:26:24 EDT Article-I.D.: sdcc12.658 Posted: Thu Aug 21 22:26:24 1986 Date-Received: Thu, 28-Aug-86 03:19:43 EDT Organization: U.C. San Diego, Academic Computer Center Lines: 17 Keywords: motss Here's one of my strange theories I thought I'd bounce off a few heads here in talk.bizarre. (probably belongs in net.motss, but they're SO touchy!) From my own observations, I've noticed that a large segment of the gay male population have thinning hair. It's usually quite fine hair and tends to start to bald at the top of the head. Elton John, an admitted bisexual and baldy, is the sort of guy I'm talking about. While I haven't cruised gay bars counting heads, I do feel I have something here. Maybe there's a genetic link or something to explain the supposed 1:10 gay to straight ratio throughout the ages. Perhaps a few research scientists on the net might like to test out this theory. Just a theory, though; but I'd interested in confirmations/denials... Paul van de Graaf sdcsvax!sdcc12!wa60 U. C.
