Ladies....shave above the knee or not?

1Kristine1

LOL! OMG, I will shave only what is necessary, I am so lazy when it comes to my legs LOL If I am wearing 3/4 length pants...... I will shave a quarter. Terrible to confess LOL

Hahaha
<- Also lazy, but knee length usually.

dia77

YES!

ive been with my partner 16yrs married 9yrs this year and i still shave everything from neck down....

for me it just feels alot cleaner and i feel better in myself, its not just to please my husband (even tho he doesnt complain )

But i also have VERY dark hair so if i dont shave at least every second day you can see and feel the difference...

this! and 25 years of marrige ....... you are doing it for yourself too.....

my question is if guys dont have to shave their legs, why is it so gross when girls don't?

BelindaDuvessa

...I hate shaving and don't unless I feel like wearing shorts. I do shave above the knee when I do that, but not the whole thigh. Winter time? No, I don't shave, period. I really don't care and neither does my husband.

If my girl wants me to...I have to. So where's the issue for you?

For myself though...if I wanted hairy, I'd start dating men.

shellebelle87

Shave it all, including arms. i hate body hair, and I have dark hair so it is noticable when I dont shave for a few days. In winter though, my leg hair can suck it, it keeps me warmer, but means I only shave once a week, instead of twice. Otherwise the bf starts whining about how gross and carpety my legs are :grumble:

I don't grow hair above my knees...(I am not kidding)

I had guys shave or wax when I asked them to. Did you try asking your guy to manscape?

I only shave the entire leg when I know I'm getting laid that day, OR wearing shorts to the gym LOL

Lmao I got a little confused after reading the comments and I still am a bit confused --

If you're talking about between your legs -- please do...bushes are nasty and love to hang out with bacteria. No one loves dirty genitals.

If you're talkin about the thigh part of your legs -- please DON'T lol. My mom always told me not to...but since I'm such a rebellious child I did it and now I have these dark spots (where the hair grows) and it looks unattractive in my opinion. No take backs though so I'm scarred for life. It is what it is and I haven't shaved my thighs since (btw I barely have any hair on my thighs - Idk why i did that smh)

helloimdominique

If you aren't willing to at least shave your entire leg(s), I wonder what else you're not willing to groom? Hmm.

My fiancee have been living together for 2 years, and I shave every damn day and get waxed on the regular. I couldn't see it any other way. But to each their own, I suppose.

CharisSunny

Oh hell no lol
Who has the time? I'm 5'10"...that's alotta leg!!!!

SuperCork

Regularly below the knee, but since 1) I rarely wear anything above the knee outside of my house and 2) I'm not currently seeing anyone, I don't bother above the knee...this is also a time issue, though: I'm 5'10" and most of that is leg: I really don't have the time.

Great minds!

arojas1227

I do... but I did get a staph infection from cutting myself on my upper thigh that kept coming back for a while and my dr. suggested not shaving above the knee.

AlwaysInMotion

Everything shaved/trimmed as needed, every other day. Never know when you're gonna land yourself a hot date or a trip to the ER. :embarassed:

I thought I was the only one concerned with random trips to the ER. :laugh:

Lift_This_

I shave my legs, armpits and I naughty bits.

smplycomplicated

I shave everything but my head,eyebrows and eyelashes LOL

What she said ^^

CharisSunny

I'm sorry but being thigh-hairless isn't necessary to me. I don't have straw growing out my follicles :huh:

I'm 5'10" as well, and mostly all legs. But I still have to do the whole shebang. I guess its jes preference. I hate body hair. Thankfully, if I skip a few days, the hubby doesn't care one ay or another lol. Says he isn't with me for my hair or lack thereof. Lol but its interesting to see the different responses.

Well I shave it all but thats for me, not for my husband. I will keep the details as to why to myself but it may come to a surprise, but everything I do isn't for what a man wants. Taking care of myself, being fit, the way I dress, make-up etc has nothing to do with whether some man finds it attractive. Luckily my husband does enjoy what I do, but I do it all for me first!:bigsmile:

Of course and as it should be.

I tend to disagree. If I were married, and my wife wanted me to shave my legs...why shouldn't I? I don't care what other people think of me anyhow...and its her opinion that matters in the short term, and long term. The same if she DIDN'T want me to shave elsewhere...or DID want me to shave elsewhere. What difference does it make?

*shrug*...I guess I just don't get this whole 'Do for you, and if your spouse is happy, good for them...and if not, too bad!' sentiment that's taken root in our society.

Well I guess I am lucky that one of the main things my husband admires about me is the fact that I know what I want and what I like, I have my own mind and we don't have to like the same things but I am still respectful towards me with out compromising myself. Luckily he really doesn't care either way what I do as long as he gets some, but if he were to say he preferred me not to shave....I would def consider it and even be willing to give it a try (another thing my husband loves about me, an open mind) by growing some in but keeping it well trimmed.

We have been together for over 18 years and what really works for us is letting each other be independent in a sense, as much as a committed marriage can be. I am just not that type that constantly asks "what do guys like". I don't understand girls/women who ask "do guys like long or short hair" or "do guys want me to do this or that". Wear your hair the way you want to, if your man truly loves you, he won't really give a crap. He might say, oh I love long hair but I think she looks great in all styles plus its just hair. For every guy who loves hair long, theres one who loves it short so do what you want.

But no one really understands our relationship I guess. Even his Mother would get on me about why I let my husband wear old concert T shirts, why don't I secretly throw them out like she did. Um....because I am not like that? Sure, I like when he dresses nice but I love him either way and if he feels comfortable in an old concert T, because my love for him to be happy is greater than my own wants then no, I wouldn't force him to do something he doesn't want to do.

We just have such deep rooted respect and trust in each other that we can both are free to be who we want, we just choose to also do it together. I may not be explaining this well, all I know is that what we are doing together just works for us! We are happy as two separate individuals and even happier together :drinker:

BAMFMeredith

Yes. The whole leg. I have serious issues about body hair, it grosses me out. Fortunately, I'm not a super hairy person (my arm hairs are REALLY thin and light), but yeah...I can't deal with even having a light fuzz on my upper legs lol

Respectfully,
Actually, I just thought it was great that she was doing it for herself first. But, that's not saying that there wouldn't be, couldn't or isn't any compromise ! I love the stuff shaven, omg do i, but if she(generically speaking) trimmed it that would be fine too. letting it go wild.. well, it might be a little scary going into a jungle while trying to play.

Exactly, and its not like I am saying "I am doing this whether you like it or not!" I am doing this because I personally like it for my reasons, not *just* because my husband said "I like a shaven woman so you need to shave to make me happy". Two statements that would never come out of either of our mouths. He had actually mentioned it once and I was curious, tried it and found it to be beneficial to me so I continue to shave.

Who like spitting out someone elses pubic hair all day anyway?:noway: :laugh:
