Since when is having no body hair and high pitch voice considered feminine? (lemmygrad.ml)

Related to a post from few days ago. Basically, it's first time I'm hearing about it, I thought that general consensus is that humans shouldn't really be having body hair(since we evolved past that) and nothing about voice in general.

I have basically the same voice since I was 12 and have no hair except on top of the head, eyebrows and eyelashes and never heard of it being considered feminine, I thought that it's completely normal thing for both genders alike, but I of course never cared about gender norms so this stuff never came to my mind.

Can someone explain this stuff and what other things are unnecessarily separated between genders for some reason?

I'm surprised wherever you are from expects men to have hair, or at least consider it attractive. Hairy man tend to get relegated to "old school" men or fetishism over bears or whatever. Unless you are talking about beards, so yeah.

The voice thing, as far as I've observed, tends to less about being feminine and more about being a boy, as in: not an adult.

I can't wrap my head around the fact that people started to think that having a body like King Kong is pretty when Egyptians, Greeks and Romans for hundreds of years idealized clean shaved bodies, with beards being optional, only for some people since about 20th century to start thinking complete opposite.
