Oh boy! Another made-up pant-load of bovine excrement!
All with no basis in anything other than pure speculation. Science!

To make women look sexy, and so a dude can be a rock star or a Viking. (Depending on the situation)

I’ve often wondered why other hair isn’t longer. Why does arm and leg hair stop growing at such a short length, but male beards can grow to any length.

I guess this guy has never seen a shaggy dog, or Highland cattle.

There was a guy in our fraternity who had a facial beard like that. He had the most densely packed facial hair I’ve ever seen and there were no typical blank spots. I think it grew across his upper cheekbones toward his nose.

My FIL always wondered why “evolved” humans had ass hair while many lower animals did not. If these intellects can solve that one, I’ll donate a dozen rolls of what those blue bears wipe their bums with.

Humans are the only mammals with long hair on their heads.

 

Wait, are you saying these gals aren't human? They sure have no long hair.

Being a soldiers in Alaska, we got to go to Guam for training for a couple months. They gave us an afternoon off to enjoy the beech. Well, pretty much everyone got fried except some black guys, and a white dude that looked like a wooly mammoth!

It is a marker of health, to have healthy hair. Especially if you are a woman.
