Today, I decided to shave my legs completely to be more confident in my dress. I spent over an hour making sure my legs were perfectly shaved. It wasn't until I had been out awhile that I realized I forgot to shave my armpits. FML

Today, I got in the shower, washed my hair and shaved because I wanted to look great for a big date. I got out, brushed and dried my hair and spent an hour putting it up in the perfect hairstyle. Running late, I quickly put on my new dress, looked down and realized i had only shaved one leg. FML

Today, I went on a date with a guy I've had a crush on for a while. I shaved my legs and armpits and wore a short dress. It wasn't until I got to the meeting that I noticed I only shaved one of my legs. FML

Today, I shaved my legs for the first time in three weeks. It took half an hour, three disposable razors, and I cut my legs up so badly they look worse then they did when they were hairy. FML

Today, I shaved my legs and pits for the first time this summer. It took 3 disposable razors and an hour to get the job done. I've clearly been single for far too long. FML

Today, I shaved my legs. It's been so long since I've shaved that my razor broke. FML

Today, I shaved my legs and armpits for the first time in 6 weeks. Unfortunately, I didn't have a hot date, I just had my yearly gyno exam. FML

Today, while taking a shower, I noticed that I had forgotten to shave my pits. I went to a party last night, and there are now several Facebook pictures of me dancing, with my arms up and my hairy pits showing for the world to see. FML

Today, I realized that I hadn't shaved in so long that when the wind blew, the hairs on my legs moved in the breeze. FML

Today, I was in a rush to get ready for work so I quickly shaved my legs. In my haste, I accidentally nicked myself in a very sensitive area and had to spend the day simmering in discomfort and checking my crotch every so often to make I wasn't bleeding through my pants. FML

Today, I was getting ready for a date. I spent extra time getting ready in the shower, making sure I was all shaved. I was shaving my upper lip to make sure I didn't have a mustache. I cut my lip really badly, leaving the most noticable razor cut on my face for my date. I'm a girl. FML

How does it take you an hour to shave your legs? You must be pretty bad at shaving.

This sounds to me like shaving is not a usual occurrence for you. I suggest you make it one.

An hour to shave your legs is utterly ridiculous. I truly hope you were not running water for an hour. The forgetting to shave your pits thing, yeah, I can totally relate. I forgot to do that one time.

thats really gross how hairy and retarded are you that it takes an hour to shave your legs? it should take like 10 minutes to shave both legs and armpits. when will girls learn that shaving every few weeks when you happen to go out is not okay its really disgusting you should be shaving every morning when you shower. thats what i do so ive never gone out hairy like all the rest of you

Eh, big deal, body hair is completely natural, and the only reason we find it "disgusting" is because we've been trained to think that. It is not disgusting, it is not dirty, it is just normal. Don't feel too bad. PS. I went for about a year without shaving my legs at some point, and it definitely took a long time to shave them when I finally did. I decided it wasn't worth the money, effort, and skin irritation, though, so now I'm happily fuzzy all over. :)
