This didn't get posted because that thread disappeared.. but I guess I put a lot of effort into typing it, so here you go.. You don't have to respond or anything, but you might find some of this interesting and/or amusing
I do fully endorse pant-less fridays and think that we are headed in a more open society as far as clothing goes, but what made me post my initial message was a book I read called "The Naked Ape".. It's been discredited in various ways, but is an interesting look at anthropology from a biologist's perspective.. Sort of. The author paints the picture of a species (us) migrating from forests and trees to savannas (which did happen) and then attempts to explain why we ended up without much hair (explanation not accepted by most scientists). The book is from the 70s I think, but it contains a whole bunch of very interesting tidbits about primate behaviour, including rearing, mating, social behaviour, hunting, etc
