秃顶的男士不要担心外貌

                                                                                      

               Scientists say bald and balding men should not worry about their looks. Bald men have no hair and balding men are losing their hair. Many men are worried about losing their hair. However, scientists from the University of Pennsylvania have good news for them. They say bald men are more attractive(有吸引力的), more confident(自信的) and taller. Scientists ask people to rate(划分等级) photos of men. Bald men come top! People think bald men are 2 cm taller and 13 per cent stronger.

          Scientists say bald men could do better in life because they have no hair. They could be more successful in work because they look stronger. However, there is some bad news for bald men. A bald man looks about four years older. But about 85 per cent of men go bald by the age of 50. They might need to spend much money every year trying to stop hair loss(脱发).  

          So men might be happy to be bald.
