Oh, I know none of that proves anything -- neither does the original poster's experience at parties, or my personal read as a woman that it's a slight positive. I'd be more curious about the data.

Though, another data point -- I've never heard a woman say, "eew, he's bald," the way they might talk about someone being fat, dirty, or excessively old. I've never heard it come up as a negative, and I have heard it come up as a positive many times before.

I don't really have any hard data to contribute to the discussion. I guess I just wanted to make sure you weren't getting your opinion on what "most women" find attractive from Rogaine commercials. ;)
