At 37, I’m pretty comfortable in my baldness. I’m not sure if it was Michael Jordan, or finding me wife, who loves me for me, bald head and all. One great thing about being bald is that I never have to pay for a haircut—it’s just me and my Gillette a couple times a week. And now, at least according to Adria Martinelli at the Delaware Employment Law Blog, my baldness may protect me under the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act. Finally, a discrimination law I can support 100%.
