Gravity and it's effects on our remaining hair follicles

OK, so most of us are losing it from our head but are any of ye growing extra hair below the neck line? Maybe the follicles are taking advantage of Einstein's gravity idea and moving themselves slowly from the head to more southern regions! Now I'm not one to stand in front of the mirror and admire the fine specimen I see looking back but I have noticed large clumps of hair appearing on the back of my knuckles and I'm fairly sure they weren't there when I was a few years younger!

Am I going mad

When I first started getting the hairs up the side of the back of my hand I was like "WTF?!?" and along with that came more prominent hairs on the fingers, but... meh, doesn't bother me.

*admires*

This is an excellent evolutionary device designed to give younger men a bit of a chance with the women and keep older men warm (and busy trimming) The hair I thought had been previously lost has in fact been redistributed to other areas previously devoid of follicles: shoulders, toes, back, ears, nose, etc.

You're not mad. Nor should you be.

I hear ya brother, them and the nostrils too. Mrs.DublinWriter takes a sadistic-glee in removing the former, I'd never let her go near the latter.

I also instruct my Polish barber, Vlad, to trim out my eyebrows on the rare occasion that I require my oft-thinning pate to be cropped. One's eyebrows tend to behave like a drugged up Ben Johnson at the 1988 Seoul Olympics once the wrong side of three-oh has been traversed.

That stuff is all happening to my fella too and it only makes me want him more.

Honest.

And it saves us money too, now that he doesn't need to wear tops any more.
