    Male pattern baldness is a male/masculine trait. Working against that is not gender affirming.

      It’s a sign of too much testosterone being converted to dht and having genes that sensitize the hair on your head to it so that they fall out, which primarily happens with age and stress.

      He wants to look like a young virile male rather than looking like he swallowed a couch cushion.

      Gender affirming care.

      Couch cushion image for reference.

      Yeah I always cringe when I see the “hair transplants are gender affirming care” meme. It’s so embarrassing when someone on your side of the argument says something so dumb. Going bald isn’t feminine?

        In this context I thought it was gender affirming as in “something that alleviates dysphoria” not as something specific to one end of the binary.

            1. Why couldn’t it?

            2. I said I spoke in general not about one specific end of the gender binary so I don’t understand why we’re restricting the subject to men.

    Did his jawline really change from the images left and right or are they just taken from different angles?
