Yes, this is one thing the entire human race has in common. They come in different colors, shapes, sizes, etc. but we've all got one. I've noticed a few things, too.Guys with hairy legs have bald knees unless they wear shorts all year 'round. If you look closely, however, at the rest of us, you'll notice short stub hairs growing on the patellae that are constantly rubbed short by long pants. You're liable to find two other bald spots on most guys... one on the front of the shin, just at the ankle where socks and high top boots do the abrading work and another on the calf muscle that's rubbing the slacks too...kinda makes us look silly, when you think about it.
Then there are the guys (hopefully no girls) with REALLY hairy backs...EEEUUUWWW!! When I played lacrosse in college, the goalie was a guy named Barry whose nickname was "Bear" for his hirsute character...or in his case, hair suit for a birthday suit. There's even a joke in "Pirates of the Caribbean" where Cap'n Jack Sparrow claims the rope he used to lash the sea turtles together to escape an island was woven from the hair of his back!! (Hey, it's possible! )
Oh, fellows...if the lady you love ever asks you if an outfit she has on "makes her look fat"...honestly answer "NO!" (You can think to yourself that it's her birthday suit that makes her look fat!!) ;)
Didja ever wonder what Adam and Eve looked like in their birthday suits? Think about it... with the incredible diversity of suit shapes, both male and female, including color, that we now have, just what genetic combination showed up in the original prototypes for the rest of us? The northern European artists of the Middle Ages had much too narrow a view when they used medium sized Caucasians as their models, I think. I'm thinkin' that the Original Dirtball and his Used Parts Mommawere both well over eight or nine feet tall, given the Biblical descriptions of Goliath and some of the other "Anakim" (Skywalkers?) who were described as giants. Post #27 has a few thoughts on this one, so you can check it out.
Have you ever noticed that a lot of dark haired women have sideburns? And just imagine if all that delightful peach fuzz the ladies of ALL hair colors have on their faces blossomed into full fledged beards!! We'd better understand why dwarf women are sometimes confused with dwarf men, as Gimli points out to Eowyn in "The Two Towers" portion of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy...right before he falls off the horse.
Well, enough horsing around with this topic.
Got Fu Manchu?
