Should we?
If so, which bits?
And when do we stop?
How hairy do we have to be?

If I do my chest, do I do my arms, my hands, my legs, my....you get the picture?

I'm unsure....I'm not "that" hairy...but I'm curious!

Also....what do we use? Chemicals (veet etc...), body grooming kits, men's razor, waxing (OMG, did you see the 40 year old virgin)!

Comments please :)

    Wife and daughter go every month or so for waxing. Came back the last time and my wife said they could do a "Sack and Crack Wax" for me.

    I inquired as to the specifics. No thank you.

    think its a personal preference....i love men that have hairless "private" areas, chest, back, and groomed underarms. but i need hair on legs and arms.

    Definitely depends on the person. I've always though it was creepy when men shaved/waxed. In my opinion, you're a man, and that means you should be more hairy than me.

    think about all the places (and ways) you'd like a woman's mouth on you and proceed accordingly.

    If you have back hair, get rid of it- but keep the rest! I appreciate a good hairy chest :)

    NO YOU SHOULDN"T! Its gross. Little boys dont have hair...and if a woman wants a little boy, then i think you should double check who your getting with. I think its ok for guys to "maintain" things, like trim up. But men are hairy and it should stay that way.
  • On a man I love hair on the chest, arms, and legs. No hair anywhere else.

    Sometimes you need to trim the bushes to make the big ol' tree stand out more.

    I would like to add, a little grooming wouldn't hurt...but hairless is creepy to me.

    I trim. i will never shave. I am not a 12 year old boy. The only part of my body that will ever face the razor is my face.

    I prefer the following to be shaved:
    dipstick area
    chest
    arms
    back

    I used to be with a guy that shaved his legs...he did it more than I did. It kind of creeped me out.

    Shave down there. For the love of god, shave down there.

    Just don't go shaving your legs or arms.

    Men should look and feel like men, keep the hair, grooming/trimming is greatly appreciated tho..

    Here's my opinion:
    For an average man, I don't think there is a need for getting rid of all the hair. It's nice to be trimmed up down there, but no need to completely shave or get rid of your chest hair. If a man is in a body competition, obviously they'll need to get rid of the hair on their chest, etc. For extremely hairy men, I think they may want to get rid of the back hair and trim up everywhere else. For facial hair, scruffy is good, clean shaven is good, and beards are good (keep it trimmed though). For heavily balding men, bic it all- completely bald can be sexy.

    Eeww just eeww.

    If you need to remove body hair please wax because when it grows back that prickly feeling is not pleasant.

    Nicely trimmed men = more b*tches. What could be more manly than that?

    Depends on how hairy you are. I like a littel facial hair, just no mustache.

    I don't care for shaved arms. Unless your arms are really really hairy, in that case trim them.

    As for your chest, I like a little bit of hair. So trimming it is good with me. But if you decide to shave it, it better not be prickley because that hurts!

    As for the nether-regions.... shave it or keep it trimmed very very short... I don't want hair in my mouth... ugh, gross....

    But hey, everyone is different! That's just my perspective....

    Not all over, just keep your magic stick area cleaned up...I don't want to get lost trying to find it!!

    If so, which bits?
    Well I'm sure you got my point above.

    How hairy do we have to be?
    I like chest hair! DO NOT SHAVE THAT ****! I don't want a beast, but some hair on a man is sexy. I want a MAN not a woman!

    Do what you think you look best with.

    For me - clear the back, shoulders, upper arms, and <redacted>. Trim everywhere else.

    I grow hair faster than weeds all over, if I don't trim, I'd look like Cousin It. Some guys don't need to shave to be trim, but that's not me.

    I'm not really into hairy guys, but I don't really care what a man does with his fur as long as it looks tidy and not like he's a wolfman :)

    My boyfriend trims his leg hair and "gentleman area", but shaves his armpits and sometimes the back of his hands. He isn't really a hairy guy at all (thank goodness), but he hates hair on himself, so he gets rid of however much possible. I like him any way he wishes to be :):heart:

    Oh, and to answer your last question: the boyfriend uses an electric razor. He's fancy... I use 2-blade Bic razors :(

    Too funny! Guess I'm old school, but a guy who waxes/shaves more than their back is creepy to me. Bleck.

    Here's my problem as a man. I am a hairy guy. I mean I'm sure anymore hair and i'll be considered an animal (and not in a cute sexual way).

    My problem is this, I don't mind trimmin some chest hairs, private areas I shave regardless but then I hear "chest hair and back should be trimmed but legs and hands shouldn't be" and I go...wtf? You have any idea how weired it would look wiht a silky smooth brown chest and back but a rough and almost black looking (due to hair) legs and arms? >.<

    I have never shaved my chest or back but how the hell does a fella even go about it? I know I won't be "shaving" but using a machine or something, wouldn't that make my chest/back feel more...prickly (is that the word?)?

    I think that if you are a man or woman you should be well groomed! With that being said it's just what you are comfortable with. One of my best friends has shaved her arms since she was in sports 10 years ago. And still to this day she shaves them.

    I was with someone that was a body builder at one point and he shaved everything! I never thought of him as a little boy because he wasn't 'hairy'. I personally don't like a lot of hair.
