Speaking as a fellow man, human men just have an unnecessary amount of body hair. It doesn’t benefit us in any way. It doesn’t provide any noticeable insulation against cold, it doesn’t protect us from insects. It only serves to annoy us. (And some idiots consider chest hair to be manly, but if you judge manliness by the amount of difficulty you have in drying your torso after a shower then manliness is overrated and then some)

No mention on being complimented on the wool sweater when you are not wearing one?
Or how about getting tangled velco style in a wool sweater?
