    I barely have leg hair to begin with :/ it is VERY scarce above the knee so I just get my legs and arms waxed every 5 years and I'm good. Probably a rare (and therefore unhelpful) case though, but you asked :)

    Why did I not receive the incredible gene responsible for this!? Anyway, whole leg! Unless I'm in a hurry and I know that above the knee won't be seen in my outfit.

    If it's not summer, I only shave what's gonna be seen, and then a little more JUST in case.
    But during the summer, I'm hairless anyway so.

    I shave as little as possible/needed. I shave my underarms every day since I normally wear tank tops, but my legs are a totally different story.. I normally wear long pants so normally I don't shave my legs at all. rarely I will wear capris or long shorts so I plan ahead the night before and will shave up to where they fall. Then again I'm a single mom with no boyfriend or anything like that (and really no desire to at this time..) so I'm sure it'd be a little different if I were with someone. LOL

    i believe women shouldn't have hair growing below the eyelashes. lol. so i shave everything. all the way up my leg and more! :)
    I'm proud to be a woman, not a little girl.

    The idea that a woman shouldn't have any hair anywhere comes from porn and reminds me too much of guys who like 'em a bit too young.

    I've just got a few blonde fine hairs on my legs. so I don't bother shaving them.

    only 1 out of 10 times. my above the knee hair barely grows and comes in blond so it's not a big deal at all.


    This. I have no idea why but my upper leg hair just does not grow. Maybe its because I dont shave it as often but I literally shave it once a month and you can barely even see anything before I shave it again.

    Ew, why wouldn't you?



    .. Seriously, how would that look naked? :P

    if he/she focuses more on your half shaved legs than YOUR NAKED BODY…

    you're doing it wrong.

    I live in the middle east and we aren't allowed to wear anything above the knee so i don't need to - yeah! Luckily though my leg hairs are blonde and fine so i only have to shave 1-2 a month!

    This is an asinine statement. How do you know it comes from porn? Experience? I think not...it was just a rude assumption. Additionally...because I like smooth skin...and the sculptured, sleek lines it brings to mind...I prefer my women 'a bit too young'?

    Again, ignorance doesn't even cover it.

    I wear shorts, so I do.
    Actually I don't really shave anymore.. I started shaving when I was 13, stopped when I was 16. Then I started waxing, and now I use an epilator. The hair that grows back is very fine and unnoticeable and I only have to use my epilator about once a month. I do shave occasionally if I'm in a hurry though.

    I too am hairless below my eyelashes ;)

    does it hurt to epilate *there*?! haha, i'm so keen to try but not if it's going to make me want to die! lol

    I have really few light, fine, hair that is hardly noticeable. I also do not wear anything other than pants, so I don't even shave my legs! :)

    No. Because I don't have hair above the knee. And actually, I never got any. I thought it was normal. :D

    Now the only hair I have left is my shins. All the rest disappeared. My mom doesn't have any. She always told me if I kept shaving, I would get more. She didn't shave her legs.

    this is an interesting post... I do half way up my thighs regularly and then the full deal when needed. I know many men who shave there legs and some... including my OH... nothing wrong with it.

    Dang, Yall. Keep in mind it was a jes for fun post. No need to get so serious. Everyone's preference is different. No one is right or wrong. I do think that bf/spouse preference prolly play a big part in it as well. Mine is used to my habits, since I have always shaved everything since we met 12 years ago. I think moms prolly influence this to a point as well.

    I agree, and sorry for the derail. I just didn't like the implication that men who like smooth skin, are one step away from pedophiles, nor the attack she made on the other young lady lol.

    For some reason i can't stand body hair on women. to me it just looks soo dirty, luckily i only have to shave like once every 4-6 weeks before i even get a tiny bit of hair growing back. In Thailand most of the women don't shave unless hey are up in a high paying job it kind of weirds me out to see a girl in a mini skirt and hairier legs than my brother.

    Its cool. I realize that. I was surprised at that assumption myself. Some men prefer no hair others prefer hair and yet others dont really care
