If beards were necessary for protecting the face, woman should also have developed a beard, but it never happened at least as strong as a man’s beard. Is it something visual? Or it has any function that was important back then on man but not on woman?
In: Biology
Some women do grow beards. Not all men can. It depends more on hormones, ancestry, regional climate… It’s more likely early humans DID have beards and grew winter coats and shed them just like animals and later evolved NOT to have them.
