    Your absolutely right. The hair follicle is a relatively simple organ to grow. If we can get a pig blanketed with our own human hair, we could scalp the pig (FUT) and have more than enough hair to fill our own recipient area without worrying about donor scars.
    How far off would something like this be, if it were to become a reality?

    Transplant the pig's hair via FUT and then eat the pig. There's something macabrely funny in how that sounds

    Dafuq is the point of growing human organs in animals? How about growing human organs in HUMANS FIRST?

    Depends how much of a stink women make about hair loss. Nobody cares about mens problems.

    I am almost convinced that this is the case. Women have too much power these days. You see the other discussion about hair systems? Good points made, yet no one seems to realize that if women were trained to require hair on men no matter what (hair systems included), instead of avoiding them when they are bald, things would be very different today. Hair systems for men would be perfected and widely accepted but, most importantly, a real cure would be already out. The motivation to push the development of such biotechnologies is really weak even today.

    Ha ha, true. Plus, such a pig could cover the heads of many NW7 men.

    So there's no issue about the whole cross-species thing?

    Is it human hairs being grown on the pig and transplanted? Even so, we aren't able to transplant hair from one HUMAN to another, why can we all of the sudden considering doing so from a pig to a human?

    As far as I know it has not been tried, so I guess no one knows yet. If regulations were less strict, and if there was more motivation to solve this kind of aesthetic problem in men, this would have certainly been tried and we would know by now.

    But if they believe that entire organs can be grown in animals and then transplanted into humans, then a hair transplant with more than sufficient donor for any NW scale seems trivial. Perhaps there is more concrete evidence, providing ground for hope, that I am not aware of.

    Your baldness is starting to distort reality. How do women control the world, when men have always and still do control the vast majority of all the wealth and power in the world? Sure when chicks are young and good looking they have a lot of power over men, but beauty fades. Men make more money, have more rights, and more freedom in every country in the world.
