Ye of the follicly challenged set, take heart.

  As was explained to me by Professor chrome dome many years ago in
Genetics 101, male pattern baldness is the result of the activity of
a "sex-linked" gene.
  In this case, a gene that is only active in the presence of the
male sex hormone testosterone.

  In order to for you to display the characteristic "high forehead"
certain conditions must be met.

A: You must have the gene present in your inherited gene complement, and

B: You must be endowed with sufficient quantities of testosterone.

Assuming that "A" above is true then you are left with a choice.

As the Professor said, as he ran his hand across his hairless head,
"Gentlemen, you may choose to be a bald stud, or a hairy eunuch."
