I have never thought or imagined of bald women (Alopecia Totalis or Universalis) before I got Alopecia Universalis at the age of 16.

Bald women especially those who are not afraid to show the public about their alopecia immediately gets an extra 10 points on my first impression on them. In fact, the inner beauty of these ladies radiates outward, not only it can been seen or observed but also felt. Qualities like courage, strong, sensitive, thoughtful are genuine in nature. And these genuine qualities I found in every bald women I know and met have now been MUST HAVE QUALITIES in any future relationship I might have.

So in conclusion, by knowing and meeting bald women has changed my whole/entire perspective in my view of women and the actual "beautiful look" of a lady by my definition would by seen through her inner beauty. In fact, I guess that it would be almost IMPOSSIBLE for me now and the future to have any relationship with a women who has NO WHATSOEVER AWARENESS OF ALOPECIA or NO RESPECT FOR ALOPECIA SUFFERERS.

I hardly thought of them and found them unattractive before I lost my own hair as a boy. Over the last few NAAF conventions I have meet bald women I find physically attractive. More so, some women with alopecia have the immensely attractive quality of being relate able. Having had similar experiences or feelings that no one but an alopecian has and feels.

I didnt really think of women going bald, unless they were really old or had cancer.  I was in my 20s before I got it, just got it less than a yr ago, turn 30 this yr, and I never pictured bald women being in my peer group, so I never thought about dating them.  But now, I wouldn't mind it, I even want to find someone around here who I could possible date w/ it.

First time I remember seeing a bald woman was in a movie.  Star Trek, the Motion Picture.  persis khambatta was bald as I was in that movie, and I thought she was gorgeous.  I was 9, and didn't see any difference in her beauty or someone like Erin Gray (from Buck Rogers fame)

Did not really meet anyone else till college.  She wore a wig as well.  She was cute, but not my type personality wise.  Also, she was dating someone.  We talked quite a bit during the semester I knew her about Alopecia..

I should also say that I have had alopecia since I was three, so I have not really known anything else.
