That may be, but my point still stands. Natural doesn't mean desirable. Same with those goofy potheads who claim that pot is good because it's natural. So is hemlock. Go smoke that and then come back to me.

What exactly is gross or undesirable about body hair in your opinion?

Cultural conditioning. Same reason I find eating poop and eating my own young gross I imagine. Or pedophilia (since sexual relations with children under the age of eighteen hasn't always been viewed the same as it is in this day and age). Or public execution.

But specifically hair in general isn't particularly attractive when it's not on the top of your head. I don't sit in wonder at the majesty of my own arm hair (which is rather majestic if I'm being honest), and I wouldn't appreciate a woman's arm hair either.

Indeed. I am not oppressed by social expectations of how I should look and dress. I don't care, but I'm not being oppressed either. It's just a natural part of human sexual dynamics. Men want women to look a certain way, women want men to look a certain way, and when both are in harmony babies occasionally get made.

Trim underarms/pubes. Did a clean shave a few times, don't like it.

I understand women will get stubbly at times but if their leg hair is as long as mine, no way.

I have shaved chest hair before but I think it looks stupid so I don't do that any more.

Fair enough. We're both getting into naturalistic fallacy territory, but I suppose my main concern is the expectation or demand put on to people in regards to their body hair - something that is naturally occurring within our species and relatively socially acceptable. No one should be telling anyone else what to do with their body, and, equally, no one should shame another person for how they wear their pubic hair, i.e. calling it "nasty."

Anyway, I have a hard time believing if any of you had someone naked in front of you with unshaved legs your initial thoughts would be anything other than "yay! naked!"

I shaved my chest for a period but found it to be too much effort for what it was worth. It also gets annoying when stubble grows back on your chest and starts catching your t-shirt. Underarms are a definite for me though, I don't like having hairy armpits.
