Female Hair Loss - pt 2.

Upon further research, I have discovered that not all hair loss indicates a cause for concern.


Hair grows in a cycle in which about 90% of the individual hairs on the scalp grow while the other 10% rest and fall out. The Ohio State University Medical Center assures that losing approximately 50 to 100 hairs a day is normal. (Also, the Ohio State University Medical Center states that poor scalp circulation, dandruff, and vitamin deficiencies do not cause hair loss - common myths. So if Cassidy wants to wear a hat that will not cause hair loss and Robby should let her wear a hat.)


This is good news for Cassidy and bad news for Robby.

    Calling an incident in mid-March, in near proximity to Robby's bed, Cassidy wore a hatduring an agreeable incident involving mix CDs and McFlurries. Robby is therefore not at all opposed to this method of hair retention, thanks to positive association.

      To clarify: the hat is not a retention technique, it merely does not further the hair loss problem. But your comment is appreciated and your lack of opposition to hats taken into account.

Women are Cooler than Men. Scientifically.

But actually that's not completely true. At the core - women are hotter than men. Scientifically. Women have a higher core body temperature than men (even higher when on birth control because hormones & fluctuates during menstruation because hormones). Meaning they are more sensitive to cooler temperatures than men to begin with. (Average core temperatures of men versus women: 97.8 degrees versus 97.4.) ((fun fact: buildings, especially office buildings, are set to be more comfortable for the temperature of men because they were set in the 60s when women weren't really there to complain.)) Women's extremities are colder (By about three degrees - 90 degrees for men and 87.2 degrees for women.) Because women's bodies are actually better at conserving heat than men. Their bodies pull the heat back to their organs to conserve warmth when it is cold. So though more women die because of the cold than men annually - it is actually scientifically more likely for men...

Fine, Dammit: Confessions of a Sought-After Sleepmate

"He just wants to get into bed with you." I've heard this time and time again. (Said to women, of course, not to me.) Men everywhere have been culturally expected to get into bed with attractive women for centuries. But, here's the thing: It's the 21st century, baby. Toxic masculinity is coming to an end. The tables are turning. And, unfortunately someone told my girlfriend. Future author C.J. Wood cannot get out of my bed. C.J. would rather sit at a 90-degree angle in my bed than anywhere else in my apartment. And if you could see my couch, you'd know she had great options. When she goes fully horizontal, she hasn't been shy about wanting me with her.  Now I'll answer the question you've wondered since you found this blog: why kind of guy doesn't want to sleep with his girlfriend? What would stop him? One word: standards.  It's not that I don't want any girls in my bed. It's that I don't want just any...

A New Solution I Give Unto You

Image
In the spring of 1956 a middle-aged father (only 36 years of age) went to chaperone his son's high school dance. As he and his wife Helen began to prepare themselves for this opulent event, this father, Nicholas McKay, Sr. (affectionately called Nick, but not by me because I never met him), needed to look dapper. He needed to clean his suit. So he took some masking tape and a paper roll and some wire to revolutionarily clean the lint (and no doubt his wife's hairs) from his suit. Nicholas McKay, Sr. This story may seem just like any other story. But it's actually really much better than any other story. Because it was from this monumental event that Nicholas McKay, Sr. conceived the idea of a lint roller. Now, many American homes have lint rollers, and are much better for it! A lint roller or lint remover, as we know it today, is a roll of one-sided adhesive paper on a cardboard or plastic barrel that is mounted on a central spindle, with an attached handle. The ...
