I shave but gave up on my eyebrows.0

Your body. Your choice.
My choice for my body is to shave everything below my head. I like the feeling of bare, smooth skin for myself.
I don't care what people do, but personally I don't find it sexy for a woman to have body hair.0 -
@sunn_lighter that's a LOT better than my original thought. lmao1

I don't shave because I personally prefer not to. I get itchy bumps that make me miserable for days. Also, I smelled worse when I did shave and I could feel the sweat more, which grossed me out. My husband has super long underarm hair (no joke, some are like 2 inches) and he never has BO. Ever. It just comes down to proper use of deodorant and overall hygiene. If you like to shave, do it. If you don't like to, don't. I keep mine trimmed for comfort, but that's it.
That said, there is intense pressure in society for everyone to fit into the 'norm'. I shave my legs so I don't draw attention to myself in skirts or shorts, but I'm a teensy bit resentful every time. There's a difference in doing something because you enjoy it and only doing something because you feel you have to. I already do tons of things I don't enjoy just because I feel I have to, like work and housekeeping. Shaving is just low on my priorities list.5 -
I really don't mind hair, except for that one time ( TMI here ) a couple of years ago i got with a girl that had pubic hair that had never been trimmed i don't think. She was German though i think thats normal over there:/ but ye that was too much... it just......went on forever.0

My GF comes come a Central American Country and will go without removing leg and arm hair during winter months at times. I dont believe going natural is common in many countries at all. Maybe those where the women dont have much body hair like in China. I don't find it unattractive at all. She is hairier then I thought when we first met but to me her legs are gorgeous with or without hair removal. She often cold waxes instead of shaving which leaves a better smoother skin instead of stubble after two days. I think going natural should be accepted but I doubt it ever will.1

If only I could grow body hair... I'd like to at least have the option. But alas my only hair is on my head, even my eyebrows are patchy and thin
My fiancée doesn't shave much. She'll groom herself. Personally I couldn't care less as long as she's comfortable. I just get annoyed when people like her sister go out of their way to show that they don't shave similar to the people in OP's post... Like, we get it already, you don't shave - do you want a prize or something?0 -
whatever floats your boat... makes me wanna gag though. lol0
