I would bet, however, that if we could trace the cultural roots of women shaving their armpits and legs we would find that it originates with women themselves way back in history some time. Cosmetic embellishment and ornamentation usually does.
Think of what a uproar we would have if women had matted red chest hair though!
Actually I have some 18th C. English sources of women plucking underarm hair to control oder.
