(23,272 posts)We have no actual archeaological or sociological evidence to support massive body and head shaving. "Art" has been notoriously fickle on this subject.
We can theorize that dinosaurs were also colored to match their environment, or that cats were also shaved in Egyptian households, or that Kalahari desert nomads used to wear clothes. But the facts remain we don't know the answers to any of those things. We can make unsupported statements til the cows come home but nobody knows. Really.
(Disclaimer: my daughter actually is a masters graduate in archaeology).
What we do know is that current data supports that American porn is having its impact on American cultural norms and that natural body hair is now somehow viewed as "nasty", "unclean" and a sex killer.
