Do you think guys should or should not?? Why or why not??
If so, how much- all or just partial??

    Being a dedicated bike rider / racer I do. Why do I it? Mostly for the following reasons-

    A) If I crash, treating a wound full of road rash is a pain when I have lots of leg hair.

    B) Embrocation goes on a lot smoother.

    C) Massage feels better without a forest on my legs.

    D) I just like the smoooooth feel of it and the wife does too.

    How much? Just above the tan line from the riding shorts.

    I don't really care either way. BUT if you shave just make sure you keep up with it, stuble sucks!

    I would find it weird if my boyfriend did it. I kinda feel like it should be saved for athletes. I want my man to be hairy and like... catch tigers for me.

    does it have to be a tiger, or would you settle for a really big raccoon? Just curious

    No, but I'd happily settle for a raccoon dog

    Unless your cyclist for the any other reason of road rash, NO.

    My boyfriend is a hairy beast and I would find him to be totally ridiculous. :laugh:

    He'd have to shave hourly.

    I don't judge any man that does though. Especially for sport.

    But I do wonder why would you do it if you don't have to!? :huh:

    I can see shaving them for sports such as biking, swimming or body building competitions. Otherwise keeping them hairy is best. If your going to shave do it all the way. It's not attractive to your bed partner to see legs only shaved half way.

    Eh.... no. Guys SHOULD have leg hair. If you're thinking about it for purely aesthetic reasons, I'd definitely say no. It would be completely bizarre to feel my guy's legs and have them be as smooth as mine.

    Perhaps if you're some type of athlete, or part of an alternative lifestyle otherwise i dont see why

    It's a personal choice, just like women. I can't see anything wrong with it really.
  • I'm a cyclist and i do. I do have to say to the ladies what a pain in the *kitten* it is. And go through razoers, holy crap! between my wife, daughter and I, we should buy stocks for BIC

    I would not date hairless men (big turn off) and finally married myself a hairy one :)

    Unless you do it for a professional sport like swimming no. My cousin has a scorpion tattoo on his leg and he shaves the hair over his tattoo I make fun of him all the time for that.

    Its the one part of my body I refuse to shave.

    No way! It would be odd to rub my hands on his legs and not feel the hair on my fingers. Just my opinion :)

    Hubby is a "pro-cyclist" competing in MTB, cross, and TT, but NOT ROAD. He shaves his legs. He agrees with all of these reasons. It think really shows off the definition and makes it easier to clean up when he gets hurt. I find his smooth legs TOTALLY SEXY!

    I say this all the time LOL
  • My BF isnt a hairy beast. But I would really dislike him shaving his legs. I LOVE running my hand up and down his legs to feel the hair. And shaving the chest... thats just a major H*LL NO!
  • i do. i never used to but after i was hurt in the marine corp where the chunk of my leg was stitched/graphed over hair never really grew back so i just started shaving both of them ha
