[QUOTE]Originally posted by lamin: [QB] [QUOTE][b]Male pattern baldness IS a genetic disorder. As I stated, the condition is the result of the inefficient metabolism of testosterone. The disorder is obviously genetic because some males are more predisposed than others, and this predisposition varies from population to population as well.[/b][/QUOTE]One might as well argue that since humans have lost most of their body hair in evolutionary time that therefore humans are suffering from some genetic disorder. Some males are unable to grow beards or much facial hair. Is that a genetic disorder? The reason I bring up "male pattern baldness" is because humans could just as easily have evolved in such a way that their heads and faces be completely hairless. In other words there is no [b] empirically discernible[/b] advantage to having any hair on the cranium at all. Thus straight hair, wavy hair, curly hair, kinky hair bear no relationship to environment and climate. The San of South Africa could just as easily have developed North East Asian type hair. They already have the epicanthic eye fold. [/QB][/QUOTE]
