Early in 2017, ABC breathlessly reported, “Hair loss and balding are something we associate with aging, not a younger population, yet more and more millennials say they're experiencing hair loss.”
Theories include diet and health problems. But Moneyish.com didn't hesitate to conclude: “Millennials are going bald from too much stress.”
We live in a rich, safe, successful country. Why is there so much stress? Why do so many young people feel they are under siege and about to be overrun?
Perhaps we should look at what public schools, in tandem with higher education and the media, tend to emphasize. Namely, pessimism and vulnerability. Our educational institutions seem to be fiendishly efficient stress factories, able at all levels to produce fearful people who will be crippled by any amount of pressure.
First of all, what is being accomplished in public schools? Anything to be proud of? There’s a lot of busywork and light-weight academic activity. I suspect few kids are deeply engaged and even fewer are bragging about how much they learned the past year. That leaves kids uninvolved, drifting, a perfect recipe for anxiety and stress.
Second, nothing noble and brave is mentioned if our Education Establishment can manage it. Has any millennial ever heard that John Paul Jones said, “I’ve not yet begun to fight.” This is a message that everyone needs throughout their lives. Have younger people heard that Nathan Hale said, “I regret that I have but one life to give for my country.” That is brave stuff, and prompts us all to a higher standard.
A Roman soldier named Horatius, twenty-five centuries ago, stood on a bridge to fight an advancing army. This story (Horatius at the Bridge) became central to Rome’s identity. Every Roman kid wanted to be Horatius.

And I’m going bald because of the stress those Millenials are causing me!
I don’t think snowflake stress is associated with hair loss.
Because corporate globalists are using mass immigration to undermine American standards of living.
The stress caused by their manginas being bigger than their God-given testicles?
I didn’t start going bald until Obama became president.
or Or ORR ORRR And I could be wrong here,
But all of the weird hormonal treatments we have going on in our foods is causing this.
I try my best to control this with my daughter, but the poor girl, and her cousins and peers, are stricken with back, arm and leg hair.
It’s getting pretty crazy. And I think hormonal treatments in the food are to blame.
The roots of hair need something to grab onto and if your brain is mush, there’s nothing there and it all falls out!
Oh ! And the hair loss in women !
I know so many women, more so than not, who are suffering hair loss throughout all ages !
For many, they have tracked it down to birth control. Birth control (Which of course affects hormones) has been causing a lot of issues gastrointestinally, as well as hair loss and hair growths.
Probably the stress having to decide each day what gender they shall be for the day.
What I've noticed is that all the guys in the restaurants and bars who wear them are obviously covering up their hair loss without once thinking that their head coverings may be causing the loss......
Millennials have no concept of what stress is. You want stress? Now THIS is stress....
>>><<<
BINGO!!!!!!!!
Perfect. (Although, to be fair, no one has ruled out global warming yet.)
Why does wearing a cover indoors cause hair loss? I cringe when I see baldies out in the sun frying their pates like pan steaks.
Wearing baseball caps backwards causes baldness and impotency (pass it on).
“More and more Millenials SAY they are experiencing hair loss...”
How in the hell does a Millenial know if the rate of balding is higher in their generation than others? Is it because of their long history in this world? Maybe they SAY me this is the hottest summer ever.”
It’s so stupid. No journalist should publish something this anecdotal as fact.
I went bald during the Clinton Administration.
I assumed it was the drugs.

Yes. There is no way this is established.
Stress doesn’t cause it either.
