What was the reason our male ancestors developed having facial hair and not our female ancestors?

I think because it is meant to act like a sexual symbol to aid in procreation. Women are supposed to be attracted to masculinity so they can find mates-men have lots of hair, women don't, therefore making hairy faces and bodies masculine in our minds eye. As to how nature came to decide this would be a good idea instead of just letting us reproduce asexually, who knows.
Dear Skinny!
It is due to an ancient DNA battle tactic, the male looks more formidable if he has greater volume and presence. There you go!
All the best, Kim!!
Females do have facial hair, if we didnt we wouldnt be getting our eyebrows done, and getting our upperlips waxed.
Testosterone you morons.its the different levels of hormones that a person has ...

For sexual purposes so women could see men from a mile away lol something like that

a stupid reason i guess because i wouldn't have procreated with those men, not aiding in multiplying the human race.
