Episode 4: Body Hair
Manage episode 299568126 series 2968379
This week we talked about our own body hair, how our communities look at body hair, and different ways we deal with it. Some information I read in the beginning is from this article about body hair.
This is the Charlie Brown Encyclopedia that I mention. I actually tracked down a vintage copy immediately after recording this episode!
I also explained incorrectly why we get goosebumps. Our skin contracts to make the hair stand up because when we were much hairier, it would make our hair stand and make us more furry to keep us warm.
