Yes, it's totally gross. Nothing worse than putting your hands on a girl's leg only to find that she is half female and half hairy ape. Just as most of us are forced to shave, clip our finger/toe nails and to make sure that too much hair isn't creeping downward from our nostrils, a woman should try to keep her skin clear of as much hair as possible except on top of her head.
Now if you have some kind of objection to that, there is always Europe where hairy women are still quite popular.
Wow cliché anyone? Wake up and smell the coffee... if european women are all hairy...then let's say americans are all fat?
True? No.
I think there's a difference between too much hair, and a bit of hair.
my boyfriend doesn't mind at all when i forget to shave my legs. he thinks it's funny, and still feels them anyways. i know he doesn't think it's "sexy" when i get fuzzy, but even mid winter when they hardly get shaved, it doesn't ever stop him, or even slow him down.
This is true in my relationship as well. I'll apologize for not shaving for a few days and he'll tell me it still feels pretty smooth. I mean...hair really isn't unhygienic in itself, and as long as I'm not a sasquatch I don't think he gives a damn. I'm glad that there are plenty of men that aren't anal and neurotic about body hair. It's a fact of life.
okay, umm im a european women and just saying but we shave are legs, and all places that should be shaved. As well people have this veiw that europeans are all these hairy perverted people well were not.
Depends on the guy, and it's just like the vagina. Some want bald, some want hair (or don't care at least).
The vagina is internal, and no, it does not grow hair in it. I think that you're talking about the vulva.
Actually The Mount of Venus is where most of your pubic hair grows. Some of my friends have almost no hair on their labia proper.
*mound
I'm not sure I get the big deal with shaving.I like to shave, and to feel pretty, winter, spring,summer fall. Just the way Ilike my guy to clean shaven down there....amazing how much more I love his whole package:)
It's not a turn on, by any stretch. Don't expect positive reactions to wearing a singlet when you've got armpit hair you could braid.
Still, we're not generally fussed if it's a 'haven't gotten round to shaving this week' sort of thing, just when it's a 'I refuse to bow to convention, and men can go fuck themselves if they think i'm ever touching a razor'. Even then, it's probably your attitude that's ruining your love life, not the hair.
The shaving this can go both ways... we don't want double standards.
Agreed. Hence my regrettable lack of a wizard's beard. :P
glad to hear it! :-)
This is a bit ridiculous...If all men were that picky, they would never be able to live with a woman. Rarely will any woman have the time to shave EVERYthing, EVERY day. It's not like we wake up and greet the day perfectly smooth and shaven. I hardly think all guys are that picky or will refuse to get near a girl if she's not flawless haha. If a girl NEVER shaved, it'd be kind of weird, but if it's like a shaving every other day situation, I'm sure a decent guy wouldn't mind.
guy armpit hair isnt very attractive either.
This is the worst answer I've ever seen on here.
A woman with hair is still ALL WOMAN. Obviously.
Hair is natural. Natural, people! She's choosing not to be what some media-driven bull**** has decided that for this last few decades is "normal", perpetuated by ignorant people like MM.
A hundred years ago you needed a tiny freaking waist. 500 years ago you needed to be fat. These things change with time and it does NOT make a woman less of a woman to refuse to change herself to fit what is popular.
This answer disgusts me beyond belief. I will not be reading any more of MM's answers in the future. I can't believe you would have someone so ignorant and unfunny on your payroll.
Who the lady above me got her panties in a bunch.
Uch. You are what is wrong with people.
Men who think a woman with body hair are "disgusting" really need to ask themselves why they think this way and why the "norm" is for women to be hairless. According to this answer, not having completely shaved legs makes a female only "half" woman, as if an essential component of being female is have a hairless body, and this routine women are expected to perform regularly isn't actually a result of societal constructs of gender. Look, I shave my body hair off regularly, but if I didn't feel so pressured to do so by society, my environment, that tells me that having body hair makes me "less" beautiful or attractive to males, I would drop this routine all together. Holy hell, it takes up at least an hour of my time per week.
Oh, and clipping your toenails, brushing your teeth, etc, that you mention, Mystery Dude, are grooming rituals that aren't solely impressed upon women, but both genders. Strange how the body hair thing is applied ONLY to women. How is this fair?
Man, this answer sucks.
Honestly, if I were a guy I wouldnt be turned on to extremely hairy either. Stubble is one thing, hair that is an inch long on your legs is a whole different thing. It is kinda like looking at a guys leg. Which unless the guy is gay, which in this scenario were to assume not, he would like to look and feel something different than what he feels on himself on a day to day basis.( I have several gay and straight guy friends who i have discussed this with and they have convinced me of their views on this topic) But again its different for every person. Maybe you will find a guy who thinks hairy is attractive(i dont know any guys like that inparticular) but the possibility is there!Also guys usually keep up with their grooming like girls do.So its not much of a double standard when both male and female prefer the same thing, guy wants girl with smooth legs and girl wants guy with shaved face (typically). All the guys I know shave and trim and cut excess hair for girls. Its all about preference and finding a guy/girl who shares your preference.
Personally, when my fiance was growing his beard out for halloween(he was wolverine) It was a total turn off because he was so itchy and scratchy. So as soon as halloween passed I convinced him to shave it.And every time he shaves his face I show my appreciation. But I am blessed with a guy who doesnt mind if I shave my legs everyday or every week, but I love his reaction when he finds out that I shaved. Talk about a hot, smoldering, im going to jump you as soon as you walk in the door look. *Hot-Bliss*
Hahaha - you don't have to be gay to appreciate a natural woman! Maybe it's an age thing, but at long as a woman is kind, intelligent, and can hold her own in video games, my heart is sold.
Leg hair particularly. Best sex I've ever had has been with all-natural women. Maybe they don't care what society thinks of them as much but WOW!
Hair matters not at all, unless you are shallow and easily conditioned by society ;) I suppose if you're looking for a *cough* buddy and you're easily influenced then you might be looking for someone who fits the present society rules of prettiness to show off to your friends. But for those looking for love, (and as part of that, really good sex) you won't find it if you veto certain people because you believe them to be less than human/not making the "effort"/because they "should". That's damn silly, imo. ;)
Mystery Man - you're a douche, and a wet diaper besides. Most confident women would never stay with a partner so judgmental and hypocritical. Bummer for you.
Arm hair? Really?
i have always wondered whether or not to shave my arm hair. I am very particular about body hair & the whole arm thing has always left me wondering...to shave or not to shave. If you shave, then it does come back prickley and then you always have to continue to shave it. My arm hair is blonde from the sun so it doesnt bother me that bad. However, I've noticed that a lot of women shave theirs. I don't mind it, but I wasn't sure if guys did. Is it like the nose hair you see on a man that just rupulses you? Cause if so....i'm shavin in damn it!!
What a lovely day for a 4800968! SCK was here
