Weak body hair:
Weak body hair is found in a variety of different climate zones in almost all continents. Particularly weak is the hair of some East-Asian Mongoloids where beard growth is particularly sparse. The exact reason is unclear, but may be associated with the severe winters of North-Central Asia (see above). In Africa, most of the northern savannah populations (Sudanids, Nilotids, Ethiopids) show very little hair, as well as Malagasy. In America, most groups have little hair, just like in South-East Asia and Polynesia. African forest populations as well as Pacifids and Huarpids of South America show stronger hair growth.
