Why doesnt Tarzan have a beard?!
Question: Why doesnt Tarzan have a beard!?
Answers:
The serious answer to your question is "He is a product of his time!." I'm tired of hearing about how Edgar Rice Burroughs was not a racist!. He opens his novella The Moon Maiden with a paragraph about how the world war is finally over with the triumph of the Anglo-Saxon race!. Huh!? That's not racist!?
Tarzan reads about White People in books -- he teaches himself to read from the volumes his father brought with him on his ill-fated travels!. And there he reads about shaving!. Since he's able to identify with these white people he does it!. It's all in Tarzan of the Apes and Jungle Tales of Tarzan!. He doesn't have a beard because he's trying to be civilized!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

eli and Jon Glade are both right!. In the novels Tarzan taught himself to shave with his knife!. Here's an excerpt from "Tarzan of the Apes":
"Was not hair commencing to grow upon his face!? All the apes had hair upon theirs but the black men were entirely hairless, with very few exceptions!.
True, he had seen pictures in his books of men with great masses of hair upon lip and cheek and chin, but, nevertheless, Tarzan was afraid!. Almost daily he whetted his keen knife and scraped and whittled at his young beard to eradicate this degrading emblem of apehood!.
And so he learned to shave–rudely and painfully, it is true–but, nevertheless, effectively!."Www@Enter-QA@Com
