    I agree, obviously. With modern soap, hair is all but useless, and we should all be bald and glossy, the way nature attempts to deny us.

      Id argue the otherwise.

      Based on the hair being unhygienic point of view.

      With modern soap and washing capabilities, it’s rather easy to keep oneself clean, even with long hair. So shaving everything off serves no purpose, just extra work for no benefit.

          It’s not enough of a difference to counter the amount of time it takes to stay hairless.

              You’re vastly overestimating how much time one “saves” from being hairless.

      Hair in joints like armpits and the groin actually works somewhat as a lubricant, preventing chafing. This is true, even with modern soap
