Related to a post from few days ago. Basically, it’s first time I’m hearing about it, I thought that general consensus is that humans shouldn’t really be having body hair(since we evolved past that) and nothing about voice in general.
I have basically the same voice since I was 12 and have no hair except on top of the head, eyebrows and eyelashes and never heard of it being considered feminine, I thought that it’s completely normal thing for both genders alike, but I of course never cared about gender norms so this stuff never came to my mind.
Can someone explain this stuff and what other things are unnecessarily separated between genders for some reason?
It all depends on the country and culture, but yes these are the cultural assumptions in the west.
There’s probably a bit more to it, but in terms of the body hair thing: razor companies wanted to sell more so they convinced western women to start shaving.
As for the voice pitch, it’s more just a biological thing. Men’s voice typically drops a lot during puberty, women’s does too but not nearly as much. Of course these are just averages, there are always people who don’t fit this.
In my honest opinion, all humans should ditch the hair completely except on the head, with beard and mustache optional for whoever likes it, we’re way past needing it anyway. Historically, ancient Greeks, Egyptians and Romans all shaved.
Yeah I have the same one from 12.
You’ll never get me to shave anything but my face, nor will I ever encourage my wife to shave anywhere at all. Body hair is natural, has hygienic benefits, and I don’t think there’s really any benefit to shaving it
There is, your choice of course but having a hair free body for life is amazing experience, less sweating, no icks, no discomfort whatsoever. I couldn’t wait to get it off of me once and for all when I had it. It was natural long time ago when it served the same purpose to us as in other great apes, but we’re now at point that we’re way past it so we’re losing it naturally as time goes by.
