    you are all mental.

    shaving your arms? whatever next.

    shaving the soft hair ALL over your body?!

    weird. just weird.

    I don't see how doing something to make yourself feel better about yourself is considered mental. If that's the case then all the girls that go around wearing makeup are mental. :| Or the people who wear contacts instead of glasses because they think they look ugly in glasses.

    Some people just do not like hair on their bodies and there is nothing wrong with that. Perhaps it's because they have thick, or dark, hairs and do not like the look/feel of it. I shave my arms, have been since I was about 10 years old because I have very dark hair and I got made fun of for it. Now it's just habit, plus I love the feeling of smooth skin without the hair. Nothing is wrong with that. Don't be so judgmental about it.

    As many parents have taught their kids, "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all."

    I thought I was the only person who did this. I shave my arms every couple of days. I don't like body hair. On other people, it's fine; on me, not so much.

    I shave my arms regularly. Body hair on women is disgusting imo. Luckily my body hair is all blonde so I can get away with only shaving my arms a couple of times a week.

    I've done it since I was in the 7th grade. They were never dark or bushy, but the hair just annoyed me. Everyone thought my arm hair would get bushier and darker if I did, but in the 12 years I've been doing it it hasn't. I only shave them about once a month and even then the hair isn't noticeable.

    until reading this thread the only people i thought did this were swimmers. I don't know a single guy friend of mine who would even think to do this.

    I don't shave my actual arms... But thought about it before... But for a guy.. It's weird if a guy shaves his arms/legs etc.. The only exception for a guy to have no hair on his arms and legs is if he plays sports or just naturally dont have any or have very little... It's kind of weird if a guy do it... I can see if women do it.. But I just never tried shaving my actual arms.. I already have to shave my legs, underarms, etc every few days :/ ... Adding my arms to shave is just too much.
