    They talk about male statues as well in the article, I don’t know why the title fixated on women.

      Because, according to the article, only the women had their hair removed. The men did have pubes.

      In ancient Greece, whether you were a hairy alpha male or a gorgeous and effeminate power bottom, the gents were generally allowed to let it all hang out. But when it came to depicting the female body, she was always entirely pubeless.
