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.

Hahahah why?!?! That's rather metro of you.

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.

butthead aka 216 03-29-2014 12:46 PM

Cause I don't care bout bein metro or whatever. We all do stuff to attract certain types of ppl n plus I see nothin cool or attractive about body hair. I shave my arms n chest n stomach too n actually basically my head as well


I don't care like some ppl do about whats a social construct or what I've been conditioned to find good bad cool sexy etc. I have no guilt in me about my thoughts

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.

Cuthbert 03-29-2014 03:55 PM

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.

Yeah I used to do it but I just trim it now, looks better, IMO think it looks stupid if you do a clean armpit shave and you have a hairy chest too. Just looks imbalanced.

:laughing:

It's amazing how critical people can be about body hair yet the moment a woman gets naked in their place it just won't bother them.

I definitely don't like body hair being referred to as "nasty", I mean wtf! It's not as though you don't have body hair yourself. Not that it means you can't have a preference.

I have found it very interesting what has been preferred. So if a lady has obvious underarm hair would you be seriously turned off?

Thankfully I'm not in the crowd of people who care what your penis thinks. Shaving my legs makes a 5 minute shower turn into a 20 minute shower, and you have to do it like every few days.ll what a waste of time and water! I mean, shaved bodies might me more attractive to you but tbh if a guy wouldnt **** me because my legs were hairy heprobably wasnt worth the trouble anyways. Allin all its just strands of keratin who cares?

ok cool

i dont feel bad about what im attracted to

Carpe Mortem 03-31-2014 02:33 PM

If its the first 6 months of a relationship... yeah girl, you better be shaving all the time unless you're hellbent on the natural thing. It's a little lie that just gets played, same way he'll probably insist on paying for everything at first.

I'm about 3 years into my relationship, and he has accepted that I'm not high maintenance enough to shave my **** everyday. Actually, it being winter, I shave maybe once a month.

But we're both smelly outdoorsy metalheads who shower like once a week. I think it's safe to say that if you're a high maintenance dude who thinks women should be smooth 24/7, you should probably be the kind of guy who's ripped and clean shaven and smells good constantly. It's only fair.

Also keep in mind how much high maintenance people suck, in general due to personality, if you're not one too.

which is true. and i can also not get a wood over it lol.

like i said a few posts ago its always funny to me in these discussions when ppl start gettin all defensive as if their civil rights are bein violated or somethin cause someone has a preference. 'how dare u shame me for wantin to keep my legs hairy, also your gross for not bein attracted to it'. ppl dont see the irony or hypocricy i dont think

Probably. It's nothing to do with how it looks though, I just find it more comfortable to keep them shaved.

I agree on the shaming part. If you want pit hair then by all means grow it. It's none of my business, but at the same time it's my business whether or not I'm gonna yack.

True, but it's all relative. I knew a cute Armenian girl who had hairy arms, but the hair was fairly fine, so it didn't really bother me. But if we're talking some Irish girl (I say Irish cause I know we're a hairy lot) with thick, gnarly, quasi-pube hair on her arms and legs then I might just actually pass. No promises, but I'd be thinking it at least.

Especially if it's on the bush. I'm not a guy who likes them shaved, or landing stripped, or even particularly trimmed. But some of those things look like she's got ivy growing out of her snatch. I'm not asking for much, just trim it back just a tad. I mean, I'd have no problem shaving the irregular patch of damn-near-fur on my back for a girl. I know that **** must be a turn off for anyone not into bestiality.

I wish. I'm trying to grow my hair out and it's breaking. I don't put chemicals in my hair except some dye, and this has never happened before, so it's frustrating me.

Do you put it in high ponytails or braids a lot, or do you curl/iron it often? Do you use a blow dryer? (All of these things will ruin your hair - I braid mine a lot for work and it's starting to thin out - unless that's just what happens as you get older, I don't know.)

My hair is cray long and it's naturally thin. It does moult a lot, especially in the shower. It's so hot at the moment that I throw it up into a bun. It will be fine once its cooler.

It's just past my shoulders right now and I rarely tie it back, and normally I let it air dry. I don't flatiron my hair since it's naturally very straight. I only wash it every 2 or 3 days. I'm guessing that I just don't have enough natural oils.

You might consider going even longer without washing it, and getting some leave in conditioner or oil. I had really terrible hair for awhile, only wash it once every week or two now and keep it oily when I'm lazying around at home. It has made a world of difference, I actually get compliments now.

And of course... trim your ends monthly.
