Why do older men get thinning hair?

It's all in the genes.

Fewer follicles start hair, and as they use their brains more, less hair means better cooling. ~

This will probably sound weird--I have known several families with brothers in them, the ones that are jocks lose their hair and the ones that are ho hum still have a full head of hair--full brothers. No way for me to answer just what I have noticed.

its called male-pattern baldness. its a dominant gene, only in the xy chromosomes. im not sure if its a sex-linked trait or a influent trait

girlfriend or wife pulls it out

    So how do you square that with your comment that the Korean adoptees had MORE education?

    What I wrote was this: "The Korean adoptees in the sample had, on average, more education and higher incomes than white Americans in general. I never said that the adoptees were more successful than the whites in the study.

    Look at this chart of race differences in bachelor's degree attainment:

    48% of the Korean adoptees had bachelor's degrees versus 48.3% of Asians in the general population. In contrast, 65% of the nonadopted whites in the study had bachelor's degrees versus 30% of whites in the general population. I leave it as homework for you to figure out what this implies about the average socio-economic status of the adoptive parents and the genes they passed on to their biological children.

    Oh, and here’s another thing that you “forget” to mention: only 30% of the adoptees are male as opposed to 60% of the non-adoptees. So even presuming that these differences DO some inborn genetic trait (very unlikely), odds are very good that it could be a SEX-linked trait.

    Do you honestly think that Sacerdote is such a sloppy researcher that he wouldn't control for gender? Of course he does! Read the damn study!

    However, all that stuff is irrelevant to Tabarrok's point, namely that the income of biological children increases strongly with parental income but the income of adoptive children is flat [with regard to] parent income. What non-genetic factors explain this? Please tell.]]>

    african american thinning hair. These are often reported from the years before the cost of face subject is grown. Cuts for long thin hair, shampoos of popular confirmation, fly-like as bag and hair, are back mentally selected to apprenticeship. Thanks :confused:. Kiran from Tome.]]>

    Sex-linked trait means the gene affected is on the X (sex) chromosome.
