Yes, human tails are hairless. Here are photos of vestigial tails on humans.
Sometimes our body tries to include traits of our
apeprimate ancestors. Vestigial tails are not that uncommon. They are typically surgically removed from infants in 1st-world countries.Years ago, I realized DBZ would be way weirder if their tails were accurately hairless....
Well, I learned something new today. Now I'm happy I don't have a tail.
Are they harmful? why do we remove them? is it just conformance based or are there actual good reasons?
They are just lumps of fat, not real tails, they are removed for cosmetic reasons
A light snack
I'd imagine comfort reasons also. Hell having a dick can get uncomfortable at times. Like every time I wear pants that are just to tight for a long bike trip it gets twisted around and bent into kinks. I can't imagine having what is comfort wise a second dick on the other side of my groin and pointing down. I can see that pinching itself every time you run or sit down. I really hope there aren't any nerves in them.
I imagine you'd either have to sit on it, which is probably painful (maybe likely to even break it), or wear modified clothes and dangle that shit free for the world to see. Personally, I wouldn't like either of those options.
Not to mention shitting on it by accident.
Or baptizing it in the toilet..
I hate when that happens to my dick.. feels forever unclean. Even worse when it touches the bowl...
Do you have a better source than this jpeg?
Our vestigial tail is the coccyx, and animals with tails have bones in them. Why would a vestigial tail grow at the base of the neck?
Sometimes our body tries to include traits of our ape ancestors.
But apes don't have tails.
However approximately 25mya the monkey and ape lines split so itust have come from at least that far back.
My bad, definitely speaking informally. Should have said primate ancestors.
