Today, my alopecic and adorable wife, Cheryl, deviated from our primping routine and shaved her own head. I'm certainly no fetishist but, to be honest, I was disappointed...and almost offended. I really look forward to shaving her head and wish that she derived such joy from me doing so that it was her expectation.

Mind you, I don't "need" to shave her head, but I do consider it a privilege and honor since she has never allowed anyone else to do so. I also function best as a creature of habit, especially when, for me, this deepens the intimacy and joy in our marriage.

Is there anyone else who feels this way about shaving their alopecic partner? On the other hand, if you're an alopecian, how do or would you feel about your non-alopecic partner feeling so strongly about shaving your head?
