Does this mean that hairy males are more neanderthal?

True. There is currently no genetic evidence of interbreeding.Smurf said:I remembering reading that Neanderthals and humans were too genetically different to produce offspring. I'm a skeptic.

So what is it that makes some men so hairy?
No, having a lot of body hair does not necessarily mean that someone has more Neanderthal DNA. While Neanderthals are often depicted as having a lot of body hair, this trait is not directly linked to their DNA. It is possible for someone with less body hair to have more Neanderthal DNA and vice versa.
No, body hair does not determine a person's level of "primitiveness." Body hair is simply a genetic trait that varies among individuals and does not reflect overall human evolution.
No, there is no scientific evidence to suggest that body hair can accurately determine someone's Neanderthal ancestry. DNA testing is the most reliable method for determining genetic ancestry.
No, there is no scientific evidence to suggest a correlation between body hair and intelligence or behavior. These traits are much more complex and cannot be determined based on physical appearance.
No, not all Neanderthal DNA carriers have a lot of body hair. As mentioned before, body hair is a genetic trait that can vary among individuals, regardless of their Neanderthal ancestry.
