    I read an account somewhere once, about how these chiseled natives were met by the Europeans. Pudgy, pale, balding, Europeans. I can imagine the European women at seeing those badass men next to theirs.

      Yeah no. Your typical worker arriving on a ship would not have been fat/overweight, and it’s unlikely that typical native Americans looked like they spent serious time in a gym lol

      I also dunno why you’d think only Europeans have age-related hair loss
