Research might help
YOu probably should research your assertions a little before presenting them.
In fact i would say its logical that women have greater hair on the head relative to their body size because they need to keep the head dryer because of lesser body heat. Wet hair threatens them more then big guys. Now perhaps again its useless but it might be usefull.
Any evidence women have more hair? How does more wet hait hair keep a body warmer?
OH and maybe you should learn how to search on google.
Scientists debunk the myth that you lose most heat through your head

Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

Re: Research might help
Debunk all they want its very true heat loss from the head is important. Thus warm hats are important. anyways its still a sensitivity to it.
Women do have more hair and more powerful hair then men. Especially relative to the smaller size of their head.
The hair is to keep the head from the impact of the wetness which is a major problem for warmth in nature.
Wet hair is a temporary matter. its just the body reacting to the threat of cold water. Not reacting to wet hair which it doesn't notice.
DO you ahve any idea what evidence is? Why do you think we should blindly accept your assertions.
Is your motto this phrase?
Don't confuse me with the facts, my mind is made up

I've always understood they have more hair or hair holes relative to the size of their heads compared to men. Then also a stronger quality.
What you understand is meaningless if you have no evidence to back it up. There are a lot of things that a lot of people understand to be correct that are woefully wrong. Instead of just asserting how about trying to present some evidence.
nOt by evolution by mutation/selection but innate triggers to quickly adapt .
Evolution by another name?
ABE
Hair holes? hair holes? Are you freaking serious? You make all these supposed scientific claims and you don't know the name for "hair holes"?

Re: Like a Rock - 2
In fact women always have greater amounts of hair relative to their head size.
You have yet to provide any evidence for this "fact". Also, could you explain more about these hair-holes of which you speak.
