Aha, so I learned something. "Pubic" comes from the Latin for "groin", and pubic hair specifically means hair grown around the sex organs. Hair generated in all regions after puberty (which has the same Latin root), cause by rising testosterone, are referred to as "androgenic" hair.

This implies the existence of pubic hair above the neck and I am feeling concerned
