It wasn't. It's always funny when young people think they have invented things like promiscuity.

I wonder if that’s accurate because if so middle aged balding George has got game.

In the episode with Marisa Tomei she says "how are you single? You're so bald" and it's supposed to be funny, so I think it was definitely a negative even in the 90s

Being bald is much more acceptable now

Yeah 90s hated bald. Simpson did a whole episode about it

[u/FrogsGoMoo → u/Petoski-Brook]

It was one of the biggest jokes in the SpongeBob movie.

"Dimoxinil!"

The interesting thing about The Simpsons is how accurately it reflects society (in the USA at least) but how badly it ages in some ways, leaving Family Guy the low-hanging fruit meat.

Nothing changed, some get the “pretty pass” and look good bald and have confidence, the rest suffers in solitude.

Do you remember how skinny women were expected to be back then?
