Men and Women and Hair

Men, Women and Body Hair

I've been thinking about the different standards American society assigns to men and women. Men can be as bald or as hairy as they want and are considered perfectly presentable. Women must be almost hairless except for their scalp hair and plucked eyebrows. This is not natural or fair, is it?

However, I notice that advertisers are telling men that unless they dye their hair and use certain shampoos women won't be attracted to them. In twenty years will American society demand that men also shave their body hair and wear makeup before they leave the house too?
