Thank You! finally someone who understands! I agree with you 100%

Thats as much of a myth as the one going around that men only like skinny women with big ****. Takes all kinds to love all kinds doesn't it. I have never shaven my legs and have never had one bf complain about it. The only place I shave with any regularity is under my arms and still no complaints.

Obviously if they're dating you they're not going to be bothered by it, but it would be disingenuous to construe them as the majority of men.

Uhh it's not really about morals, its about what guys like...Most guys would prefer to feel a smooth leg than a hairy one...it just feels better. I'm not intentionally trying to be shallow about it, but its just a turn-off, can't help it.

It's not morals so much as attracting a mate or fitting in. Most women shave because most men/women prefer that a woman they're involved with has shaved legs or they feel insecure about being hairy whilst wearing more revealing clothing. Just like most women in our culture don't think it's particularly attractive of a man to have an ultra-hairy back. It just cultural aesthetics.

well, nvm actually. as long as shes clean. props to 38 i think it was.... my mind has been changed.

Why is it that people continue to think that shaving somehow alters your leg hair's DNA so it grows back differently? Your arm hair and your are different because they are different types of hair. You don't trim your arm hairs right? Then why on earth don't they grow as long as your head hair? Is your crotch hair as soft as your arm hair? Also a different type of hair. All hair is different. Shaving only causes the perception of hair growing back coarser because when it initially grows back in it feels stiffer because it is not as long. I have shaved AND waxed my leg hair. If I were to let it grow out naturally, which I've only done during finals, it goes from being "course" feeling to very soft. My leg hair grows in blonde too, so you can't see it.

All body hair is the same but different from pubic hair and different from head hair. Leg and arm hair is the same type of hair. Hair DOES grow thicker once it has been cut, think of how soft a babies head hair is before its first cut. Leg hair should be fine enough not to shave and tbh should not be noticable. Why do so many women complain of course horrible leg hair when they shave yet I have no complaints of my legs being prickly or hairy or anything.

I apologise turns out it is a myth man I feel daft hehe

304 - Yup, it's a myth. Hair grows in tapered, but once you cut it with a razor you're cutting it straight across, so it looks thicker.
