15 Problems Only Bald Men Will Understand

5. People Get The Compulsion To Rub Or Pat Your Head

An unusual yet remarkably common problem. What is it that gives so many people the compulsion to pat, rub, or even slap a bald head? And why would anyone think it gives you luck? The bald man in question probably doesn't consider his follically-challanged head lucky - having people touching it all the time certainly isn't bringing him any good fortune! Strangely, the older a bald man is, the less likely he will be on the receiving end of a head fondling. Almost as if a bald person under the age of 50 deserves a good pat on the head, just to remind them of the fact they have no hair. Once someone passes a certain age, a balding head is almost expected, therefore dishing out pats and slaps must lose its appeal.
