Male body hair, a question.

I don't think it's weird at all. My husband gives the ole arm pits a buzz every now and again (as well as the southern region) but leaves his furry chest alone :bigsmile:

Not given it much thought but will definitely keep an eye on the ladies responses. I am a borderline sasq..sasquen....saguench...oh hell a bigfoot.

:bigsmile:

My hubby is kind of a sas too. Before him I had never dated a very fuzzy guy. I find that I really don't care. It doesn't bother me at all. He's tried removal in the past before we met and said it was very uncomfortable for him and he doesn't want to do it again.

Unless they're swimmers or athletes that have to tape, I don't really see a need for men to shave.

While it's great to try to look nice for your partner, you really shouldn't have to do anything you don't want to do.

My man friend also gives his underarms a buzz on a regular basis, but I can't really tell either way. It still looks manly but maintained. He leaves his chest and stomach hair which I find very sexy (especially the bit heading south :blushing: ) BUT he does grow a Tom 'Stach ever once in a while and I think it looks RIDICULOUS!! Haha, different strokes for different folks I guess

Older lady here and I like a smooth back, maybe a little bit of chest hair and Iike the hairy pits. No shoulder hair.

I'm in agreement here... no back and shoulder hair...

Although I can understand where clipping down the chest and pit hair may be more comfortable for a guy during the summer... nothing weird about that! :bigsmile:

My husband is kinda furry, but I only mind a few places. We take care of the back and shoulder hair and thankfully the military takes care of the facial hair . He trims down below to thin out the hair (no bald, yuck) as do I.

Hey all,

I am a bit of a squatch also, not as much as a few of my friends (shudder), but I definately have what you I like to call '70's sex symbol folical body coverage' (sans the mustache).

Anyhoo, during the winter, I generally don't do a great deal of maintenance, but in the summer, I do take steps to clean myself up. I prefer how my bare skin feels, and overall just feel cleaner and sexier. My wife doesn't seem to care, but I do, so I chop-chop as best I can. I also find that I appear more toned or thinner when doing so, but that is proabably psychological.

I have shaved before (and no, it doesn't seem to make it thicker when it grows back), have waxed (I'm sure it was more fun to watch than have it done...youch), as well as using nair etc. I've actually found an initial round of mens nair, then just going over the area with a razor (after rinsing the nair and drying well) to be pretty effective. The nair seems to weaken the hair, giving the dry razor a much easier time of cutting. Afterwards, I'm usually nice and smooth and it lasts for a couple weeks before needing to be touched up again.

So yeah, seems to me that it's just a matter of personal preference. Manda tells me she likes the chest hair, but personally, I like to be smooth in hot weather. I guess the big question is, what looks better in a kilt, a smooth chesty guy, or that above mentioned 70's sex symbol with the sasquatch chest and cop-stache?

I don't like men who shave their body hair very much. Except back hair. Don't like that so much! There's my 2 cents!

For me it is all about moderation.
I wouldn't want my husband to be completely hair free but I wouldn't want him to be sasquatch either.
He isn't very hairy anyways which is good. I do like it when he has abit of facial hair (enough to be soft but not an actual beard) and I like his natural airpit, chest and leg hair length.

I prefer trimmed, manscaped, corn husked, whatever term you what to use. A little is good, a lot is not. My husband trims and that is good. I help with his "neckbeard" (his term not mine) and shoulders.

I have never liked a man that was completely bare chested. Could never get into it for some reason.

I'm an older lady and I prefer hairless but on the other had a hairy chest is pretty sexy to run your fingers through. I really don't like hairy shoulders or a hairy back though. That's just not attractive especially a lot of hair. Then it's just gross imho.

I'm throwing my lot in with the group of women that don't mind body hair. I don't think there's anything wrong with it, it doesn't bother me and even if it did, short of hair removal procedures, it's not something that a person can decide... I guess I think it's just a silly thing to judge a person's worth (or unworthiness to be a partner in a relationship) by something as trivial as hair. It's just hair! Dishonesty, being untrustworthy, laziness, THOSE are flaws. I judge a man by his moral character, not by how fuzzy his shoulders/back are.


If I'd have written off my husband for being hairy, I would have missed out on spending the rest of my life with my
best friend. Besides, there's something sexy and primal about a rugged man... I'm not sharing my 'squatch with you lot, so this poor substitute will have to do. :laugh:




I do understand it's a matter of personal preference, just my 2 1/2 cents.

Just to clarify, I don't have a problem with 'manscaping', if that's what they want to do, I just don't think we should make men feel bad about having it in the first place.. I don't mind it either way, my husband likes to keep his trimmed, though.

LMBO@ 'neckbeard'

28, so not necessarily young OR old...

I like my men as they come. Hairy, smooth, doesn't matter. If it's part of them, it's fine. I've had some lovers whose entire bodies were hairless, and some who could put Harry from Harry and the Hendersons to shame. *shrug*

My husband is not overly hairy... chest, stomach, legs, bits, pits, and a bit on the back of his neck.. but nothing that I could shave "WELCOME" in, and lay him at the front door.

Girl this made me giggle!!!......:laugh:

This one time, at band camp...

no, actually,

This one time, in Italy, when I was at the Sea for the day, this guy walked by in a pair of bermuda shorts. The hair on his head, trailed down to the middle of his back... but you could hardly tell where it ended, because his body was SO furry, that my first thought was to shave "WELCOME" in it and use him as a doormat.

LMAO!!!......We have a running joke about..."This one time at porn camp"..........:laugh: :laugh:

I used to live in Italy!.....yeah....there are some needing-to-be-manscaped fools over there! FO SHO!! :sick: :laugh:

Um... how exactly do you shave your own back? Attach a razer-blade to the wall or something? Or do you actually have to bother someone to do it for you? I'm not so keen on seeking assistance when it comes to personal grooming - seems a little too revealing to have to ask someone to help me shave my back, it's got to be awkward at least.

If you're comfortable with your body hair, then don't change it. Some of us love it.
