I think you’d want to reconsider the assumption that there is a big downside to baldness for sexual attractiveness.

Just anedoctal evidence, but I have a group of older coworkers, most in late 40s-early 50s, all divorced, and by their reports on their attempts at getting back at dating, success pretty much track how much hair is left. That made me a bit upset, as I'm slowly getting bald myself.

there is a huge difference between balding and bald

nobody wants to see a guy in denial clinging onto something, lean in fully

and yes it is unfortunate that different people are attracted to the bald variant than the ones you already know, but you gotta show resolve and confidence
