Hairy men

[mindseye]

Semi-ape, but grateful, as maternal grandfather was full-ape.

On a related note, it seems to me that mainland Chinese men are becoming significantly hairier, especially on their legs.

Young Shanghai guys have much more leg hair than men over thirty. This coincides with other physical differences for those of both genders under approx. age thirty (i.e. taller, healthier, better skin and teeth) which I attribute to recent major improvements in diet and health care for urban Chinese.

You can see the same difference when comparing urban guys and rural guys of the same age - the urban guys seem to be significantly hairier.

Could one of our local medical specialists weigh in on the possibility that improvments to diet and health in general affect production of body hair?

Paging Dr. Strangelove!

Thats from back in the day when me and Nixon were touring the country. I was wondering how my kids were doing; thanks for the update.

I am hairy, too hairy in fact.
Legs, chest, arms, the part where clavicle ends, and stuff.

And apparently, it's more popular than a webcam thread would be.

Hm... Could You imagine humans whose nature solve their problems not by growing hair, but the way frogs solve them - by slime or whatever?
It'd be interesting
