Losing hair before your twenties?

My mate Darren who I am currently studying with has started losing his hair. He’s only nineteen and it’s kind of getting him down somewhat, which is understandable, you don’t really want to start thinking about getting a hair transplant before the age of twenty.
Baldness could affect any of us at some point in our lives and some of us just have to accept it as an inevitable evil of getting old. Until it happens to us there’s no knowing how much it will affect our confidence. Also it’s not something that people can do much about, unless they can spend large sums of money on treatments that may or may not work. Why then do we accept that people who are going bald can be made fun of so easily in our society? If you call an overweight person fat or tubby it is seen as a terribly offensive thing to do yet in my opinion fat people can always go on a diet or do a bit of exercise to try and get themselves into shape. Not that I in any way dislike fat people, quite the contrary, if someone is happy with the size they are then why should there be any problem? But if it’s offensive to make fun of someone who is overweight, why isn’t it offensive to make fun of someone loosing his or her hair?
Luckily for Darren he can carry of a skinhead well enough to embrace the fact that he is going bald, but it took him a while to accept this.
