An Epidemic of Massive Proportions

It seems like there is an epidemic among men who have lost weight, look at almost any before and after picture of a guy who has lost weight. When they were bigger their chests were covered in hair, but now that they are in shape it has disappeared. I am quite a long way into my weight loss journey, and have yet to be afflicted by this terrible thing, but I fear I may be days away.

So ladies do you prefer this, or should the hair stay. Also to the guys, why did you do this, and if you haven't do you plan on it.


Note: I'm not passing judgment on anyone who has done this, it’s just Friday and I felt like having some fun :drinker:

    No no!!! Keep the hair! I'm sorry, but I can't stand that polished look on a man. Not on real men at least. Yeah, the calender type guys look pretty damn hot all, still fake though. Guys should care about how they look and all, but when it goes as far as plucking, tweezing and waxing then that's a little much. Unless you look like cousin It.

    I like men with natural body hair. Shaved or waxed chests look odd to me. Back hair is not sexy though...

    Not a fan of chest hair. Fortunately, my husband doesn't naturally have much!

    I like a little chest hair. If you take off your shirt and it still looks like youre wearing one, that's too much for me. lol

    If a guy isn't too hairy then I like the natural look. If you are particularly furry, though, then no.

    I won't be shaving my chest hair or legs or arms...I am not a bodybuilder or anything...just natural me and I am fine with that.

    I don't have back hair so that's a big bonus ha ha LOL. I have lost 42 lbs since I started this journey and never once was tempted to shave...only my head :drinker:

    Guess I can answer my own question, I have done this in the past, with an ex girlfriend who wasn't a fan of chest hair, I also think I did it with my wife once, just for the hell of it, but I won't be doing it again. Just to much work, thats why I like being a man, no need to shave other than my face. :bigsmile:

    Call me old fashion, but I prefer hair on a man's chest, but not so much on the back.

    At the gym, it's weird seeing men with shaved legs.

    I'll be 58 in September. Back in 1978, a boyfriend surprised me with a shaved groin. Needless to say, I told him I didn't "do" little boys. We wound up playing cards instead..

    I'm open minded and don't have a problem with individual preferences -- that's what makes life so interesting!

    Whatever floats your boat . . . live and let live.

    A little bit is fine, but if you start shedding and beating your chest like a gorilla, well, no thanks.

    Chest hair was worked for Tom Selleck for decades. If you shave it remember its hair, it grows back.

    I on the other hand just don't have any chest hair at all. so the shave is not even an option.

    My wife has forbidden me to shave my chest hair. I think that is a good thing.
