For sure, patriarchal beauty standards are to blame here. However, it’s also sort of weird to suggest that ALL woman, and in fact, all humans, have roughly similar body hair. That’s simply false, and easily proved false if anyone cares about facts.
This isn’t some black and white issue, it’s something with degrees of truth, that’s all.
You and I are having a back and forth direct conversation. Keep up or be more clear.
Everyone in this thread is, though.
Really? Because mostly I’m seeing a bunch of men arguing that we should all ignore the societal pressure on women to shave their body hair because this is actually an argument about whether hair growth can be compared to cancer.

I never claimed all women have the same type and amount of body hair, but all women do grow body hair.
I never said you did. Everyone in this thread is, though.

OK, well you responded to a comment that wasn’t for you anyway and seem to have misunderstood the point of the comment all along.
And it’s me that should “keep up”?
I’ve been in this conversation for a hot minute now. You replied to my comment:
And here we are.
The conversation isn’t about the different types of body hair women can grow.
