[this-is-amato-heteronormativity]

I don't know if this counts, but the vitriolic hatred people have for balding people is so terrible, especially balding fems. Everybody acts as though balding and having thin hair (and I mean see-through thin) is the worst thing ever. People act as though balding is only something that can take away from attraction (you looks so beautiful despite it) and people are being generous by being attracted to people with hair loss. I've quite literally never seen any positivity for balding people, but I've seen plenty of jokes about it (using bald as an insult, "I hate having thin hair" trend, hell even just Google bald meme ) and it sucks because I've never seen any character with alopecia, I can't even find one anywhere. I'll even see conversations about the expectation for feminine people to shave and then they'll say that expecting someone to be hairless is pedophilic?? And I see no pushback on the idea that my body is pedophilic and people are gross for even being attracted to me. We're not included in anything and when we are it's always in a way to fit beauty standards and the patriarchy's comfort (fully bald/hairless or minor hair loss (which can be hidden or considered "stylish"/fits in with the styles of people not experiencing hair loss) instead of extreme hair loss with longer thinning see-through hair and being comfortable in that). I'm so sick of being a joke always, this shit kills people and everybody needs to full out stop making these "jokes." (Sorry if this is the wrong place to put this)

This is look-normativity, ableism, and anti-masculinity.

Beauty standards as a whole are look-normativity, as they expect a person to have unanimous opinions/feelings on appearance, as though aesthetic attraction cannot differ from individual to individual.

It's ableist in the sense that a lot of disabilities and/or disability treatments can cause balding. It's also ableist because it implies people with pedophilic disorder have a specific appearance, and that people with pedophilic disorder are automatically offenders.

And it's anti-masculine because androgenic alopecia is one of the most common forms of balding.

(Note: Anti-masculinity includes hatred of androgenic characteristics. Ofc, androgenic characteristics do not immediately make a person masculine; but a lot of people conflate androgenic characteristics with masculinity. Its like how misogyny covers the hatred of estrogenic characteristics, even though estrogenic =/= feminine, because our pericisnormative society conflates sex and gender.)

A small clinical trial found that putting crude onion juice on patchy alopecia areata spots helped hair grow back in about 87 percent of people within eight weeks.
