Men and Body Hair

I was out for drinks with a couple friends recently (one male, one female) and we were discussing this. My guy friend is quite a furry dude. My female friend is a total hippie and sees no problem with a man having lots of chest/body hair.

Personally, I can't stand it. Even a little bit. Body hair besides on the arms, legs (of a man, not a woman), head and the occasional beard just grosses me out. Luckily, my man hates it too and I never have to see it on him.

What do you think? Shave that shizz? Let it grow? Trim it up so it's less Austin Powers-esque?

    I don't care about body hair. My bf grows facial hair quickly and I think he looks best with about 3 days worth of stubble.

    I do hate the 5 o'clock shadow, but only because when it's that short it's lethally sharp when he comes in for a kiss. Ouch :(

    It's a personal preference. And some guys pull it off well and some guys don't. I don't grow a lot of chest hair to begin with so I just make sure it is all gone.

    Body hair can be sexy.... it can also be gross. My husband hates body hair and shaves his chest & stomach - but I wouldn't mind a little chest hair & happy trail. Once you cross into the back & ear hair though... no.

    The chest hair is here and it's here to stay. .

    The back hair, now, that's a different story. . I will contort myself in all kinds of uncomfortable ways to shave that off. .

    Ha! My husband has a hairy chest and has angel wings on his back. Lol! It doesn't bother me at all. :)

    I grow chest hair but I wouldn't consider myself hairy. I "groom" myself regularly. My wife however doesn't want me to shave my chest hair. She loves it and thinks a man should have chest hair. I don't mind it since she likes it.

    Bahahaha! That's a bit much... But I actually prefer it when my bf has his days-off beard growing. It's all..manly and stuff...rawr ;)
    I guess a bit of a treasure trail would be ok, too. But if I stroke a man's chest and there's fur slipping between my fingers...I literally just shuddered.

    Sorry, not trying to be insensitive or judgey. Just my opinion.

    Personal choice, I guess.

    There was never a vote on how I would groom myself. I made that call, and if that means you and I can't go out, I guess I'll just have to live with that.

    Real men don't shave their body hair.

    Personally I think hair on the chest is very masculine looking. Doesn't bother me a bit. Not a fan of back hair.

    While I love a nice buff and hairless chest and back on a man, it's not by any means a deal breaker. I married myself one hairy mfer.

    No chest hair, no back hair, and bald or "high and tight" down there please!

    Very little is ok too. Just no pelts of hair.

    Anything you can reach gets trimmed. Anything you can't reach gets waxed.

    Mostly I just love the happy trail. There is nothing hotter. ;)

    Everything else I don't really feel strongly about either way. A small amount of chest hair is nice, I guess.
