I am a hairy man. I am also handsome because my mum and dad say I am, so it must be true.
Practically every instance of an 'attractive' man depicted in the media is one of hairlessness, especially in the torso (chest and back) and limbs (arms and legs) area. I know that there's nothing 'wrong' with being hairy, but I do wonder whether the need to depict men as hairless is an intentional bias in favour of encouraging men to shave as much body hair as possible. When I was married, my wife didn't seem to mind having a hirsute husband. In fact I have good reason to believe that she actually preferred this, but my theory is that the insecure possessiveness inherent in monogamy is akin to a human-pet relationship and a desire to feel comfort in 'cuteness', such as stroking fur. Not solely, of course, but a factor that I can't rule out. (My positronic brain awareness reduced marriage as a social obligation designed to validate the necessity of procreation, and I did my job, whilst suppressing a lifelong urge to self-destruct and/or live in meaningless anchoritude and pray for a lonely death in solitude.) Anyway, back in the world of the living, (I cannot tell, and care little, whether I verifiably exist or not) I vaguely recall writing some vain nonsense about being an 'ape-man' trapped in the consciousness of a non-descript overpopulated interglacial homo sapien-dominated biome.
