Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
I can see good amount of hair on your face. Good moustache, fair beard also.
Chest has scanty hair.
If your voice is manly then there is hardly any problem in your masculinity.
Many people bear much less hair on these areas as compared to yours.
Hair distribution does not only follow the father but they also get affected by maternal side.
Some people have constitutional delay when hair continue to appear till early fortees.
You are having normal male pattern hair distribution, do not get disheartened.
Hair hardly make you attractive rather people with dense hair mostly need more efforts to remain odor free.
