    See, this kind of statement (repeated ad-infinitum in this thread) misses the whole point. . I don't think the thread is titled: "Would you advocate making it a federal crime for women to have hairy pits".

    Not liking the way a hairy pit looks is not the same as demanding someone else shave. I don't find hairy pits and hairy legs attractive on a woman, but that doesn't mean I think she shouldn't do whatever she wants with her body.

    Hey you with the flags

    "Flag" doesn't mean "like"

    I think it's way gross, but to each their own. I can't stand body hair, other than the hair on my head. I even gag/get grossed out when I'm cleaning out my hairbrush.... Can't even imagine that much hair under my arms. *vomits*

    I'm with you there! I don't like "loose" hair with no definite structure. A tight ball of it is fine, but if it's got strands poking out, it makes me gag.

    Uhh, ok. Let me rephrase myself. I think doing what feels natural for your own body is sexy. I admire those that give the finger to typical beauty standards.

    I think it should be socially acceptable for men to have hairy legs and pits, but I'm pretty liberal.

    The men I know don't shave their body hair.

    But it's possible I travel in a different circle than the current crop of prolific posters at MFP.

    Anyhow, the argument has been made here that body hair entraps and emits unpleasant odors.

    If that's true, men, (other than competitive body builders, porn stars & metrosexuals) should be walking around smelling ripe and animalistic.

    I don't find this to be the case.

    Maybe womenfolk's unshaven armpits are more aromatic than men's. I don't know.

    Yep! That's exactly the double standard I was pointing out. :)

    Some guys do smell pretty ripe but nothing that can't be fixed with a nice shower and good deoderant. I think the point was that you have to take an extra level of care in your private regions when there is hair because there more surface area means more heat, more moisture, more bacteria and possible odor if certain preventative meseaures aren't taken. Too each their own, shave/don't shave, up to the individual. Doesn't affect me personally, so I really don't care.

    There we go, that feels better now!

    we match
    It's not so bad, right? As for the naysayers, they can have their opinion, but I don't have to let it bother me. Lifetime of ridicule? I'm more along the lines of a lifetime of being happy with myself, making my choices and owning them.

    hell yeah! ill take people finding me disgusting & a lifetime of ridicule over feeling like i have to shave twice a week for the rest of my damn life

    don't you just love how it tickles when the wind blows your leg hair?? and you forget you have leg hair so you are like ... why is something touching me? then you look down and laugh at your cute little leg hairs

    Umm, no. Never liked that feeling. Feels like bugs crawling on me.
