Thick hair stings and it makes physical contact less pleasurable.
There are sebaceous glands connected to hair follicles that are supposed to lubricate our hair and skin with sebum which makes our body hair oily and that we associate with dirtiness. Partly because sweat and sebum attract bacteria which cause BO. It's easier to wash off sebum from the bare skin than to wash it off the skin and "a thick bush". Therefore I understand why we don't like having hair in our armpits and private areas but why is that acceptable for hair on our heads but not on our legs is still mystery for me. Maybe women started to do that because of nylon tights and then it became standard.. 🤔 I really don't know. It makes no sense to me.
