A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Human bodies are anything butt hairless. It would just be wispy, crinkly pubic hair that only grows in the most inconvenient of places.

Humans are considered hairless apes. I believe that is what OP meant.

And OP is definitely correct. Just look at these vestigial tails. (or don't..)
