Unless I’m missing a comment from the poster, I don’t think there’s an argument being made to force this actor to grow body hair just for this role.
Just that it’s odd that they’d go through the effort in makeup to make them appear dirty and unkempt, but don’t bother to include body hair. It’s a common practice in makeup to add beards to men to give them a more unkempt appearance, but not armpit or leg hair on women even though most adult women grow hair in these areas.

Right … no need to grow it. You can just attach some fake hair, they have an entire departments for that.

Exactly, but even so, it's an actors job, many lose weight, gain muscle, grow hair, lose hair, all the time for the role. Such a strange thing to be angry about, let the actors decide themselves lmao. What's with the new trend of people getting offended on behalf of others?

It’s ok if they do it. It’s not ok to be mad if they don’t go far enough. Are you going to cripple the house actor for realisms sake?
Creating these demands and expectations is not ok.

If Christian Bale wants to make himself look like Skeletor for a role, that’s his choice.
