The article doesn't tell us why we have hair! Only that we don't have as much hair and women have less than men! Reasons I've heard:- Warmth to stop losing to much heat from our heads Sunblock to stop getting sunburnt Friction reduction under arms and between legs Smell enhancement to attract mates b/c there is more surface area for bacteria to grow! Barrier to stop dust getting in our eyes and noses, and sweat getting in our eyes

Yep, Kid Scientist is aimed at kids aged 5-12, that’s why we don’t call it Old Man Scientist.

he didn't invite you to ask questions, it's just a comment place. doesn't say anything about asking questions. and he didn't say that men grow more hair on their legs than woman because that doesn't apply to every man and woman, and it also doesn't really mean anything. he said men grow hair on their upper half of their body, like their chest and back. and woman don't, that's not the same thing as saying men grow more hair than woman on their legs. la la la la.

You invite people to ask questions, yet you don't reply! Would you agree that men, in general, are hairier all over than women? Not just on the upper body. Please reply?

Dear Sir, You said men grow hair on their upper bodies, but I've read many times men grow more Termial hair all over their bodies than women - and that includes the legs. Would you agree with this? Why mention only the upper body when men usually have hairier lags too? Please reply? Miss V Tyson
