Why is baldness so often associated with evil in Hollywood?

My friend made a joke one time when I was accidentally short a dollar while paying at a restaurant. He said, "It's always the bald guy." I realized that in Hollywood movies, at least, he's right. When you see bald guys in movies, they are almost always villains. Not always, you get your Bruce Willis, Jason Statham, and Samuel L. Jackson types in good guy roles now and then, but most of the time the bald guys you see in movies are depicted as evil. Why is that?Why is baldness so often associated with evil in Hollywood?Here is a link that I think explains it rather well.

Probably two reasons: bald men are often seen as "badass" tough guy types, and because while some women favor bald men, they aren't seen as typically attractive or sexy, which is what a hero usually is in a movie.Why is baldness so often associated with evil in Hollywood?Typecasting. Just like the cliched "the brotha always gets axed first" in horror movies. And the ****** in the 80s teen movies was always a blond, snobby preppy guy. I don't know why, I personally dig bald guys :)Why is baldness so often associated with evil in Hollywood?
Probably the same reason the "overweight" characters are usually lazy, sad, and depressed. They are usually the outcasts. It is just society. Sad but true.Why is baldness so often associated with evil in Hollywood?bald people are more likely to feel angry at the world for losing their hair and therefore for some reason wish to take over the world or blow it up
