Why Did Women Lose Their Facial Hair Before Men?

Question

How long Should I wait for my beard to drop?

It's been half a million years already.

Answer 1

Let's assume we were hairy hominids as said by Darwin. Distribution of hair is related to testosterone only in some parts of the body, the rest has nothing to do with testosterone.

Testosterone in males is responsible for body hair, beard, mustache, & crown and temple baldness.

The rest of hair on bodies of hominids (if darwin's theory is true) has nothing to do with testosterone, and that's why when we lost it, we lost only that hair but not the one related to sex hormones.

This is how I see it scientifically, disregarding my own disbelief in evolution.

Answer 2

Hormones, more testosterone = facial hair.
We dont have as much testosterone as men, so we dont grow facial hair.

I dont know for a fact if women half a million years ago even had facial hair, they probably just had hairy bodies, like chimps, they dont have beards or mustaches, but they are hairy

Answer 3

The women's facial hair got tired of all of the damned cosmetics that women use on their faces. So they retreated.

Answer 4

because a woman with a beard is ugly

Answer 5

When, on average, your maintenance testosterone level is not ten times greater than a woman's.
