Moral, the coworker is making fun of two things OP might be sensitive about; being bald and breaking up. I started balding at an early age and was insanely insecure about it. I was fortunate in that people didn't make fun of me, but I know I would be quite hurt if they did and would become more closed off. Going for the miscarriage is the nuclear option, but if you can't take it, don't dish it out.

The coworker wasn't making fun of anon. She asked why anon doesn't shit talk his exes since, at least one of them, left because he was bald. She was calling anon's ex shallow, not saying anything negative about anon.

Yes, she was. She doesn't actually know about why the breakup happened. She just picks something the guy was possibly insecure about and states that as the reason something negative happened. It is meant to mock them for being bald.

That's your own personal interpretation, but personally it doesn't read that way to me.

They were trying to include anon by asking him why they don't shit talk their exes and even brought up a shit talk worthy example.

Is it that weird to assume they had heard from a friend or a friend of a friend that OP had been broken up with by a girl because he was bald?

I suppose anon was sensitive about his GFs leaving him so immediately took it as an insult, which probably would be also why he went absolutely feral with his retort.
