Are you too man?

It is getting more fun to do review as it is an enriching exercise. This time, I learned something new about an aged old problem - hair loss. For those who have this problem and are impatient to read further, go straight to check out the reviews of some hair loss products.

The above linked .org site is specially designed to provide a place to review products based on the problems these products target on. On the issue of hair loss, the top product in their ranking is Provillus, and it has the most number of reviews. If you are still solving your hair loss problem, check out the Provillus review.

So, for those who still have the chance to learn about it while not having it, it is a man problem. I don't mean woman won't have it. It is a man problem, as in how man are you? It happens to people who are "too" man. That's what I concluded after reading the guide on their site and wiki out what is Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which is responsible for the formation of male sex-specific characteristics. However, too much of it leads to hair loss.

Basically, health is not a race where the extreme is the ideal. Health is about balance. Thus, be man by all means, but don't over do it. Have a balance diet!

Lastly, this problem looks trivial, but don't overlook it as it is about a person overall health state, not just the hair and look.

Be straight, may not achieve, but don't give up

It is incorrect to use the above as a proof. However, "How a 'gay rights' leader became straight" is a strong example.

To me, each of us has both male and female characteristics. Within this spectrum from masculine to feminine, there could be some middle cases. Furthermore, some people might have a harder life when the levels of masculinity and femininity does not match their physical body. Just face it and live the harder life.

Some choices are just not meant for us to make.

Butterfly effect

Few weeks back I watched the movie 'Butterfly Effect'. In the study of ecology, scientists have also learnt that minute changes will bring about huge effects. Similarly, in many nature parks, signboards were put up to instruct tourists not to feed the wild animals to avoid undesirable effects on the species. Today, in two conversations, some friends have noticed that young men in some countries are less manly. A conjecture comes to my mind, is it probably that most man in Singapore went through the army training at a young age of about 18 serves the function of boosting the manly characteristics of men here?

On some further thoughts, it seems that some evolutional changes that have been happening for at least some decades should be seriously studied. As more women step into the fields of men and as the living environment become safer, the need for muscles and those capabilities once mainly or solely belong to men reduces. This results in an environment where men are more unlikely to play the full role of the male species, in terms of protecting the females, being the bread-earner, making all decisions, etc. As a result, women are becoming less womanly and men are becoming less manly.

I suspect this could be a major reason for the low rates of successful marriages in many modern societies. As men and women not playing the proper roles of husband and wife, respectively, the relationship within families could not be properly formed and grow.

Feeding the hungry wild animals may appear as an act of kindness, but the effect on these animals could be disastrous, unless the importance of the animals to acquire their own survival skills is being re-enforced. Similarly, for women to be able to survive by themselves and contribute more to societies after the expansion of their capabilities may appear good, but this might have caused men to be less manly. It is as if the magnetic bonding force between two magnets weaken is due to the north and south poles of the magnet becoming less ‘northly’ and ‘southly’ respectively. Relating this to the case of a family, the bonding force between husband and wife would be weakened due to the husband and wife becoming less manly and womanly, respectively.
