From what I remember from biology, its to filter out impurities from getting into your body from these orifices. Like your nose hairs... they are to trap impurities so the have less chance of entering your body.
Same goes for the other places.

Your DNA determines what kinds of hair and how it grows or behaves. Each person is unique, but we have various commonalities. You might have genes that stiffle hair growth where someone like me has genes that give the direction to make it grow more, or perhaps differently as in color or texture. We have common sets and distributions of hair follicles but DNA turns some on, and some off. Additionally, they have growth cycles (mine are causing the hair atop my head to thin, the maximal cycle having passed). The hair on my head does not behave like the hair on my eyebrows, which is different from the hair on my chin, which is different from the hair in my nostrils, which is different from the hair on the back of my neck, which is different from the hair on my back, which is different from the hair on my chest, which is different from the hair under my arms, which is different, etc. The common functional presence distinctions are inherent with the human species, but the particulars between individuals is inherent with the unique chromosomal sets that were (literally) mixed up by your parents at your conception.

You should know if you are that far advanced to degree level. And it doesn't sound weird.

Uncertain, as it is a great mystery.
There's not enough to keep it warm and it offers little in the way of cushioning for sex
