Body hair has long been linked culturally to animality and immorality

Evidence

Although human hair grows prolifically, people are nowhere near as hairy as our closest primate relatives. Nevertheless, we have always hated the stuff. Hairy bodies have always been associated with uncivilized, amoral, sexually promiscuous, or perverted animality. — Sheldon Solomon, Jeff Greenberg, Tom Pyszczynski, The Worm at the Core, 572
