YIBAWEAN CODE

IN 1987
A group was incorporated into common culture called the Yibawean Society, dedicated to bald men and women. Now it has grown to international magnitude, promoting the welcoming of BALDNESS. The stringent code (above) is, for many, difficult to live up to but for others hard to live without.
A dear friend, recently diagnosed with breast cancer, has this very day been proclaimed a full member of the Yibawean Society, advancing from a mere FOB, Friend of the Bald. We are waiving the non-wig requirement. Times change, and with them, their demands.
YIBAWE stands for Yes, I'm Bald, And What Else? And what else? We should always ask "and what else?" [Prof. Leo Buscaglia, in a lecture about asking more questions]
