I love body hair on men. Hairy chest, beards, and yes, long hair too. Lack of body hair comes across to me as less masculine. Viva la diferance. (How ever the French is spelled.) If I wanted soft, smooth, hairless skin, I’d date women. Many complain that women are not allowed to be strong. As far as I can tell these days, no one is allowed to be strong. What’s that all about anyway?

A hollywood ploy, I think not hollywood itself in the past 50 years has done some extreme brainwashing, which i think is disgusting but so is a drain full of hair after a shower. Body builders were really the first to expose the world to hairless bodies of mass, but also in the past 20 years tattoo’s and body art as well as piercing’s have become extremely rampid among young people and this in turn is ok for there kids and so on. If a man has a tattoo on his chest he is gonna want to show it off well just shaving the are a round the tattoo looks just strange, so thats when the exploreitory shaving comes in. Before you know it you’r wondering if you’r knees look too bushy. I myself view it as this: women have been “staying clean” for us men for as long as the oldest couple has been alive. With constint shaveing, waxing, or burning the hair off their body anyway they can to please the viewing eyes and busy hands. why should they be the only ones who need to keep themselves groomed it’s high time men realize that soap and water isn’t enough to stay clean, healthy and sexy and that mowing the lawn should be a requirment among both in the relationship.

I agree with what you said in you,re video rsponse, but I think you left something out–the feminizing of men.It seems like it is not a good thing to be a man anymore and yet it also seems like women are more attracted to and would prefer to marry the guy a bit more like John Wayne than Orlando Bloom.

Hey, I think my husband’s body hair is one of the best things about his body! I love to run my fingers through his chest hair, it’s so sexy and feels so good. Maybe the problem lies in some slobs’ habit of not bathing/showering enough. Keep it clean and it’s about as sexy as you can get.

I believe that biologically in early humans started at puberty where little hair growth accomilated. in our culture we try to look yong men shave to have a face like a boy. womeb shave to have legs like a girl. it helps to look young

I’m nearly 50 also and it seems that nature is removing body hair by itself. More accuratlely, its moving it and removing it at the same time. I’m referring of course to the hair on my head slowly moving back on my forehead and new hair appearing in areas where hair should not be. I think its a pendulum swing; these things tend to go in cycles mostly influenced by Hollywood, television, and print ads showing slick chested men. I also have to say that us men have brought a little of this on ourselves. We tend to like a woman to be totally slick “everywhere” but her head and I think women are saying; “if I have to then so do you”. What I’d like to hear are womens’ opinions about shaved men versus mild body hair on a man versus the beast man. I’ll be willing to bet, its a matter of personal taste to them, provided that hygiene isn;t an issue as Dr. Fullbright mentioned.

I am in my mid 30’s and I am very tired of removing the massive amounts of hair from my back and neck that seemed to appear all the sudden when I was 28. I am tired to trying to appear like a smooth 20 year old. Todays idea of attractive is what a 16 year old girl would find attractive and I am beyond impressing younger girls. As I have gotten older I am naturally attracted to women more my age. If I no longer notice the stretch marks, lines on faces and slight sagging in women my age then I think they can overlook some of the hair which naturally grows on a grown man. It is not that I have let myself go. Its just I am not so centered on my self worth being based on an ideal that I am not payed a movie stars cash to keep up with or garnering an opinion from people that really dont matter to me.

I think body hair is extremely sexy. I think men have been so feminized by women who think that a Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise (two very effiminate boys in my opinion) is what a “real” man is, that they disdain a real man like Tom Selleck who had body hair. I told my husband if I was interested in a man with no body hair, then I might as well be with a woman - they don’t have body hair either. By the way, my husband is gorgeous with body hair.

My boyfriend is from Bosnia and he has chest hair and at first I really disliked it but now I love it. He has always been confident about it and I think that is what makes it great, I would hate if he got rid of it. I think it makes him more manly in my opinion. I think that people are looking up to these hairless, waxed stars and thinking that’s the only way to be sexy.

I am 44 and continually dismayed that both men and women are into removing body hair. I am not sure where the trend originated but I will be glad when its over.

my lady LOVES my hairy chest. She rubs her face in it, she loves to sleep on it. it is soft hair though. She love my beard too

Because smooth skin feels better under your partner’s hand than a thicket of entangling, rough hair.

WHAT MAN WANTS TO LISTEN TO A WOMAN ON THIS TOPIC, WE DEMAND MORE MALE EXPERTS, &
TELL DR F. TO STOP TALKING OUT OF THE LEFT SIDE OF HER MOUTH SO MUCH, IF AT ALL !!

I think my husband’s body hair is very cool. I love to run my fingers through his chest hair, it’s so different and sexy. Maybe some of the problem is the lack of good hygiene that some slobs have. With daily shower/bathing, body hair is one of the sexiest, coolest things on a man’s bod.

I think you are right. IMHO Left leaning folks and Hollywood continue to try and dimish the difference between the sexes and this is another area. I’m all for equal pay and all but I enjoy and appreciate the difference bewteen the sexes. I don’t understand why people don’t. I also think that the fashion industry jumps on trends like this and as soon as they get all of us to shave our legs, hair will be in again.

BTW, I’m very hairy and my wife loves it!

My quesiton would be, especially around the genitals, what are the health risk, or what are the disadvantages and advantages. It can’t all because it ensures good sex!!??

Considering the painful lengths that women have been going through for years to remove every trace of hair on their bodies other than whats on their heads. Its about time men get in on the same action. A lite dusting of chest hair isn’t too bad, if its under control. But some men have so much body hair they look like Bigfoot Some basic grooming won’t kill you and maybe it will help improve your relationship with the ladies.

PS: Back hair is never acceptable, if you have it, remove it now. its a HUGE turn off

Hair is unsightly, on men and women. Unless it is on the head. I find that shaving “specific” areas, genitals, abdomen, and chest increases sensitivity and encourages my partners oral actions. It works the same with her as well.

IMO, hair, is a vestigial remant left over from the days when it was protection from elements, bugs, and underbrush.

I bet in another 3 or 400 years adult men and women will be nearly hairless, except for the head.

Wow, what a complete bunch of babbling nonsense.

As a 54 yr old woman, I detest that men are now shaving their bodies. I feel this makes them more childlike and that it is very unnatural. I much prefer a man with hair on his body than one that shaves it all….A hairy man is sexy.

I am a middle aged guy who happens to be very hairy (though a bit thin on top of my head). My gorgeous 20 something wife loves it.

No noone wants to kiss all over someone who is hairy. Not to mention my oppinion it looks disgusting. I love it when a man doesnt have much hair (anywhere fo that matter), it is very sexy.

Body hair isn’t sexy? Could have surprised me!

Body hair (beard and chest, etc, large breasts and hips on women are overtly sexual in a basic way. We seem to perceive them as being barbaric and a throwback to caveman times.

Modern times everything has to be ‘clean’ and asexual as possible. No chest hair and no boobs or hips. No body odor with the attendant pheramones. I don’t know if this has anything to do with pretending the sexes are the same or not but makes me wonder.

Women do all sorts of things to be attractive, based on social trends. Is that wrong? In europe body hair on women is ok, it’s not in the states. Would it be ok if your wife stopped shaving or stopped keeping in shape because there once was a time where being plump or hairy was the social norm?

Do you work out? Do you ever dress nice for a date?

Styles change, even for men. It’s just slower. I bet you don’t wear a bowler. Or a leisure suit.

It’s not required for you to care about your appearance. The choice is yours, do you want to try to be attractive to your partner (or prospective partners) or not?

You can’t change other peoples’ aesthetics. You can only make choices for yourself.

You’re worried about what Hollywood and other Metrosexual ‘men’ who get their eyebrows threaded think about your body hair?

Your a man, act like it.

Ask- What would the Rat Pack do? Not what would Leonardo DiCaprio do.

OK?

Body hair tends to be really distracting and only adds friction during sex.

That is all.

Women do not like their husbands/boy friends to look like an ape. And, most all (straight) men are suckers for the attention of women. Once a male removes his body hair, he will probably like the feeling and continue.

I have shaved my arm pits for the past 30 years, because my wife insists that I do so. I have heard that a lot of women “encourage” their men to do the same, including my secretary. Odor is greatly reduced. I could never, ever go back to hairy arm pits. A hairy, smelly male with dirt under his finger nails and obnoxious toe nails that haven’t been trimmed in months does not attract females. We live in a modern age.

I was once in line behind a hairy male wearing an A-shirt, and after he left, the young female clerk commented to me how totally gross the male looked with hair all over his back and around his neck. I agreed with her.

During an unusually hot and humid summer, I shaved my legs. That was 12 years ago, and I still remove all the hair on my legs. But now I have them waxed regularly. Hairless legs are a lot cooler, they feel smoother and they also look better.

So, guys. If you are not getting enough love, you better clean up your body!

I personally like some body hair on a man. A little on the chest, arms, legs….I like a manly man. I do however, have to look past the Back hair that my husband owns…we joke that it is his bear rug, but if I could ever talk him into getting his back lasered I would be ecstatic. I know he can’t help it, and so I love him anyway. Lord knows none of us are perfect, even if we spend thousands of dollars on ourselves to make others think we are. Personally I’m not real impressed with bald bodied men, especially when they shave their genitals. I’m thinking how adolescent they look and personally I’d rather have a manly man than a man that looks like he couldn’t muster up enough testosterone to pop out some chest hair. I’m not real sure when or why it happened that mens body hair became unpopular, but rest assured that not all of us women are looking for a clean-shaven man (body shaven that is, not face shaven… that’s a different story). I’d have to say that “Hollywood” controls what fads surface when it comes to looks.

I am a 38 year old man who has become hairier over the years. at first it was disconcerting but as it has continued increasing, i have come to accept it. in fact, it is starting to turn a very nice silver on my cehst ! while the younger females might not dig it, my wife and most of the women my age do like it. lastly, since it is part of one’s genetic code, there is not much at all that a man can do about his hairiness (just like females and breast size). you just have to learn to live with it and not care what the media and other people think.

I hate body hair!!! especially on my females. I have been a bodybuilder for years but only recently started cutting off the hair, it just gets in way! I hate the way it looks anymore. As I have gotten older I like it less and less. So I cut it off close with my shaver. I dont shave my body that is just too much, but less hair is great for sex and looks in my opinion. the only hair I like on females is on their head, long sexy hair is great on females. Maybe this is the new thing, who knows. I know when I see some hairy guy its like , what women would like all that hair and crud! ugh.

Use deodorant, clean body hair, reduce sweat from body hair…how out of touch. Probably the most ridiculous response that could be given for body hair perceptions. There is no difference for bathing or deodorant usage, however if you want to consider the fascination with big breasts - try dating a well endowed woman in mid-summer that does not use deodorant under her breasts and see how the relationship lasts.
Hollywood has done a great job telling us how we should look and that has led women to anorexia, bulimia, wasteful cosmetic surgery among many other problems. To imagine that men should not have body hair seems more along the lines of demasculination than anything else. I suppose, if I were to prance around like the freaks that surround Tyra Banks - it would make me more attractive. I am pretty happy with my chest hair and as a 40 year old man married to a beautiful petite 25 year old woman….that likes chest hair…screw what anyone else thinks about your body as long as it works for you.

This is in response to NoName’s comment: You’re a sissified idiot! I am a woman and my husband has body hair and I love it. No offense, but I don’t want a metrosexual ‘man’ (those two words shouldn’t even be in the same sentence together) who is as feminine as me. Please realize that by shaving yourself, you are making yourself look like a woman. I don’t want a woman for a partner-I want a real MAN.

Huh, no body hair is a turn on as portrayed by actors and models…teens are on tv acting as adults and having sex…adults are increasingly breaking the law and having sex with teens…women are fighting what the media portrays they should look like due to unreasonable expectations of thin and beautiful…now men are not allowed to have chest hair. When are we going to guit being led around by magazine covers and demand true reality. Most men have body hair - show it off and quit shaving/waxing. It was not that long ago, Tom Selleck was the hot number among women - maybe next year chest hair will be back in and the hairless prepuberty look will be out.

I personally shave down there and trim. It is truly an amazing feeling and looks nicer and I feel much cleaner. Sex is great and the wife does not mind. I am not an overly hairy guy just don’t like excess hair down there. Shaving makes you also look bigger!

This whole discussion is ridiculous and only proves to Fauxnews that titillating stories are an accepted part of the News. Shades of the London Daily Mail, here in the USA.

No thanks …

Funny how no men made any comments about hair on a woman. Personally, I would have a big problem with looking down at my woman and seeing what looks like the genetils of a 3 year old girl. Now that don’t sit right with me. Nope, I think a woman should also look like a woman. Shaved legs are a must, but I don’t care to see any other part of their bodies shaved including the arm pits. We have enough other troubles in the lives that we live in these modern times than to have to worry about shaving all the time. Hair won’t stop growing unless you spend lots of money to stop it from growing. Try spending some of that money on the children you create or on things that make a difference. Better yet, learn to live with less dependence on money. Learn how to survive again. Believe me, you’ll need the survival skills in the not so distant future.

As a masculine male, I find this issue of hairless men a bad trend, but I also don’t like the trend among women to become hairless “down there”. This hairless trend denies who we are as humans and denies that we change as we age. Real women have hair, I think it is sexy. While I strongly support “maintenance” or trimming, be who you are confidently, that is the foundation of sexuality. The simple rules: take pride in your appearance; be clean, fit and confident. I think those who obsess over hair and demand a completely hairless partner may have issues that need to be dealt with. IMHO.

I’m a single guy in my early 30’s that has been shaving/trimming for years. To me, it looks better, it feels better, and it seems to be more desireable to the females that I am attracted to. And I’m attracted to women who are well groomed. Body hair is like any other physical feature…everyone has their own opinion about it. There is no question about my “masculinity” nor am I’m anywhere close to being considered a metrosexual guy. It’s a cop-out to say “manly” or “womanly” for that is all in the eye of the beholder. Be happy with who you are, but always be ready to try new things. If you’ve never done it…all you have is an opinion, no experience.

I’ve had chest hair ever since high school, and now while dating college girls, I’ve noticed something. After intimacy of any sort, they immediately begin to play with and fondle my chest hair. Buggered if I know why, but they all find it compelling. I’ve shaved it before, and yes, it makes everything look cleaner, muscles more defined, etc, but thats a time sink I couldn’t be bothered with. Besides, women and men who don’t choose a prospective partner because of one part of their anatomy (especially hair, which can be trimmed and regrow) probably aren’t looking for any sort of a realistic partnership. Take hot showers to help rinse off the body oils, maybe shampoo your chest like I do, and be astounded at how many women bury their face in there, and play with it. Its a primal thing, in my opinion- we can’t break away from biology, nor from biological cues.

Something is wrong about women wanting smooth hairless pre-puberty like men.
I’m not 8 years old anymore. I refuse to spend time in the shower scraping off body hair.
Its NOT dirty. Its NOT unsexy. Its what happens to a guy during & after puberty.
Its natural. Leave it alone.

Any guy who looks in the mirror and says I have too much body hair is homosexual. Heterosexual men - REAL heterosexual men - do not worry about body hair, unless on a women. Then, maybe, surely, it would be a good idea to get out the raser.

I have no problem whatsoever with body hair. If my man had body hair, which he doesn’t happen to have, I would be perfectly fine with that. I do find the comment that some women make where they say that they “might as well be with a woman” very revolting. Not because I’m against same sex relationships, because I’m not, but because they’re offending men who don’t have body hair. My husband is Asian, he could not grow a beard if he wanted to and his body is very smooth. Does this make me someone who wants to be with a woman or a pedofile? Absolutely not. If you ladies want a hairy man, more power to you, but don’t go insulting girls who don’t. Men who don’t have body hair are no less of a man than hairy guys.

A man with body hair is a sign of testosterone and fertility, the primary drive for attraction and reproduction; attraction being the reason most men advertise their hair in certain ways. Even though I keep a full beard and have a thick head of hair, too much of anything is not good. For hygiene purposes, visual reasons, or at a partner’s behest, all hair needs to be kept.

Women, on the other hand, have their fertility and abilities as a nurturer judged by wide hips to allow for successful childbirth, large breasts for feeding, and appealing facial characteristics to be appealing to children. Body hair would cover up these elements or dissuade a male from choosing her as a partner due to the less obvious presence of these characteristics.

This is mostly why it has become commonplace for male body hair to be acceptable (within reason) and women have historically removed hair. Men, would you be interested in a woman who had a beard and chest hair such as yours? Not likely.

So men, grow your beards and bear your chest hair; and women, get that wax and keep shaving. That’s the way it is supposed to be and the way it will be.

I agree with Russ. I want a woman to look like a WOMAN, not a pre-pubescent girl. There’s nothing wrong with keeping things trimmed and neat, but the bare look does nothing for me. In fact, I find the sight of a woman’s pubic hair to be quite a turn on.

As a somewhat hairy man, I’ve found that most women my age are OK with it and some even find it really sexy. I am meticulous about my grooming and bathing habits, so no worries. I have to admit that I wish I didn’t have any back hair, but the lady I’m with now loves it and told me never to have it removed.

While I tend to like Dr. Fullbright’s columns, I think she’s off about Hollywood/TV/porn not having a major influence on the way people look and feel about themselves. Our culture is driven by images and advertisers know that sex is what sells everything. If hairless is deemed to be sexy, then more people will start to be influenced by that. I’m a very fit and muscular guy, and even I now find myself being afraid to wear a muscle-T because of my hair. Maybe I should just do it anyway and start a trend!

Hair, hair-long beautiful hair-give it to me down to there! There are just some places where hair just gets in the way, if you know what i mean. So, shave your head and your b-lls and you’ll have women wanting to rub both.

Look, this is simple…yes, Hollywood does portray a Metrosexual type of guy…and this goes right along with the movement to world socialism…it makes men look more like women…while women are encouraged to work out in extreme amounts (beyond what keeps you healthy)…to make them look more like men…the goal is to make all people interchangeable with each other, like socialized insects (ants, bees)…only problem for these socialist utopians is that people are NOT insects and react in unpredictable ways…the world was not always like it is today, and won’t always be this way, either…people will adapt to whatever the situation demands, which is why we have humans of all colors, body-types and yes, even differing body-hair levels…most people do not dwell deeply on large socio-political trends…they only see what is displayed to them as a societal norm…thus, a lot of women (though by no means all) THINK they need a guy to be smooth and hairless…while men think they HAVE to be smooth and hairless…like all things under the sun, if it doesn’t entail the basic human needs, it too shall pass!

Used to be only gay men shaved their bodies…….hmmmmmm?

We’re mammals. We have hair. Get over it.

Please trim nose and ear hair. Beyond that, no one male or female should feel compelled to shave anything. It’s personal preference for the beholder and the beholdee.

You all crack me up. As someone who naturally has little body hair, my wife loves it. I rarely have to shave my face, and only have a few stragglers on my chest. I can’t see how some of these neanderthals can stand to have so much hair on their body, have to shave 3 times a day and think it makes them “manly”. My lack of hair has never affected my ability to do these “manly” things you ape-like-fellows keep referring to. Unlike Mike, I am not afraid of showing off my muscular clean arms and shoulders in a tank top!

I am a 56-year-old man. My wife has always said that she likes my hairy body. Hair serves as a smooth, natural insulation from friction - think about it!

“Ask- What would the Rat Pack do? Not what would Leonardo DiCaprio do.”

Interesting because the Rat pack were complete slaves to current fashion.

There’s a lot of confusion here. It’s really simple. You care about how attractive you are to your partner or not. If you have a steady partner ask them what they like. If not then you might be well advised to go with what most women (or men if you swing that way) like these days.

If you are too macho for that, bully for you, but you’re handicapping yourself. I think your kidding yourself if you think out of two well built men most women will prefer the hairy one over the one where you can see his definition. Why do you think men shave? Because THEY like it? Of course not. We’d all be hairy and smelly if it weren’t for women. They shave because it gives them an advantage. Basically there’s two sorts of people, people who play to win, and people who whine about the rules. The rules have changed. Adapt or be left behind.

Course there’s plenty that like hair, but fewer these days.

Greetings ,,,,,,,i am like a caveman!!!!!!!!!! and there is no woman that thinks its sexy,,,,,,, i have the body hair of 3 guys!!!!!!!!

She’s just another rambling, jaw flapping person in the media. And what the hell does me having a hairy chest have to do with body odor ??? You know, this is the 21st century and they have these wonderful inventions called SOAP and DEODERANT !!! If girls or women are looking for bald, pre-pubescent boys then all they have to do is stalk a grade school to find their man. This was just another dumb topic.

” rarely have to shave my face, and only have a few stragglers on my chest.”

Hey, Tom, why don’t you tie a knot in the ones you do have on your chest just make sure they don’t go back in?

Ape-like-fellows ?? Shave 3 times a day ??? Tom, you’ve proven to be a complete moron !! And you wear tank tops to top it off !!! Just go back to your feminine little world Mr. Bigglesworth !!!!

I like a smooth man. It is great to see the hard body and contours of a man that takes care of himself and thinks of his partner.

hair is great, especially on women. the more the better. if she doesnt look like a sasquatch i want no part of it.

I went hair free in 03, due to a nasty case of the fleas while in Afghanistan, I got home and the wife liked the trimmed look (I have never been excessively hairy) so I kept it. Served me well on my second combat tour in Iraq, when other guys were dealing with bugs and rashes and other nasties (sorry folks showers were scarce) I was a lot more comfortable…so I stay hair free.

If being hair free makes me less manly, then I guess it does, but you would have a hard time convincing any of the guys I led that their battle hardened, meaner than mean, dog faced, ground pounding Army squad leader was weak.

As a man that shaves - yep - full body - Head, Chest, Genitals, Legs - I can tell you that I feel more comfortable. There is less “adjusting” myself and I feel cooler - not hot. Does this make me less of a man - not on your life. I am Soldier and I have served in combat. Being shaved helped me clean up better and not be so prone to crotch rot while being out for several days. Yea - my wife likes it too. Plus, I ride competitive in cycling. Having the wind blow against my hairless legs feels better than having my legs beat to crud by the hair on them.

Now, if anyone can tell me how to reach around and shave my back without breaking an arm I would be appreciative.

What’s wrong with a hairy body as long as you look and smell good? I have been with a few women and have no complaints about it.

if sasquatch was real i would dating him! hairy men are so sexy!

I have shaved my whole body hair except head and eyebrows and still consider my self a strong tough man. I just like the clean feeling of no body hair. Less body odor too!!

As a woman in her early 40’s I have to say that I am not a big fan of excessive body hair on men. In my early 30’s I discovered the joy of dating Asian men, because in general (as a group) they lack the amounts of body hair as other men. I don’t want to be with a man who shaves off his pubic hair and ends up looking like a pre-pubecent boy, but there is an incredible senuality in smooth male skin. The whole 70’s male shag carpet look, particularly if the hair is dark is a major major turn off.

As a non-Asian woman in her early 40’s I discovered the joy of dating Asian men years ago. The draw? The lack of or reduced quantities of body hair in most cases. My partner has the most amazing skin and I could never go back to hairy again. I have no desire to see a man shave his private areas and end up looking like a pre-pubescent boy, but there is nothing more discusting than hairy backs, Chewbaka armpits and tenticles reaching out from a shirt collar. I’m all for the new movement of men dethatching.

What a weird topic, but I’d like to share my comments:

I’m a mid-30s woman who shaves my legs, arm pits, and genitals. The pits and legs are normal, so I’ll say that I shave my genitals because it makes “touching” feel a lot better. More skin to skin contact instead of skin to hair contact. Not only that but I have noticed that since I started shaving down there, I have no odor at all. Maybe the hair trapped the odor causing bacteria? Anyway, sex and masterbation are extremely better for me without hair.

My man is also mid-30s and pretty hairy. He is a National Guard soldier and works out daily. He has started to shave his arm pits because of skin irritation by his hair rubbing in his pits. He also trims his chest and genitals with a clipper. He leaves his chest hair just long enough to be soft but to minimize the “hairy” look. Less hair shows off his pecs and 6-pack abs more than when he is hairy. Quite honestly, when he didn’t trim his groin area, sex wasn’t nearly as good. The hair got in the way. He uses one of the lowest settings on the trimmer for his genitals and it’s awesome. Again, more skin to skin contact instead of skin to hair. I’ve asked him to leave his arms and legs alone… they are hairy and very sexy. He has a pretty good sized hairy patch on his lower back and some hair on his butt and I LOVE it. His back is mostly hairless and I tweeze the few hairs he does have. They bother him.

I dont want to be with a completely hairless man, that would be weird. But I do agree that men need to take more steps in “grooming” themselves. Just like men dont want a woman with hairy pits and legs, we don’t want a man with over-grown hair on their chests and backs, IMO.

Body hair serves a purpose, it heightens the aromatic sensitivities of male and female alike.
Also I have always believed people, M or F who prefer clean shaven are harboring latent pedofillia fantasies.

Men have hair on their bodies. Women like hair on men’s bodies. Shaved, waxed, smooth-skinned effeminite little boys aren’t men.
Females who demand their men be de-haired are: (1) such man-haters that they want to demasculate men, or, (2) really only interested in the soft smoothness of a feminine body.
Every woman I’ve ‘known’ has loved the feel of my beard against her soft smoothness and the feel of my chest hair against her breasts.
If this opinion bothers you; go ahead and wax yourself.

If absence of hair is the requirement, then we should shave everything, right? Heads too. The good Dr. Fulbright should set the example. I’m sure millions of women would jump on the bandwagon and shave their heads, just like they’ve jumped on the man-bashing bandwagon and insisting we do something unnatural.

Have you ever tried to shave your own back? It’s physically impossible for wide-shouldered men. What’s next? Mandatory estrogen treatment and breast implants?

What a crock!

Unlike the 60’s and 70’s women looked like they had a ewok in a leg hold. But over time they “grew” out of it. Men however, are not supposed to shave anything but the face and head. Unless your a swimmer And then it grows back 5 times thicker,darker. Then once you stop swimming, it looks as if you stuck straws in your legs.
TY,
Harry Oliver…lol

So who was allowed to decide that anyone is “better” if they shave? The same person who thought genital mutilation was a great idea??? Not all social ideals come from a sane beginning. Celebrate the real you! Why do we think we need to live in a perfumated world?

A clean adult body is sexy….whether with hair or with little.

I have to laugh at the people who are slaves to society and fashions dictates. I laughed when I heard a television commercial for aloe essence scented soap. Aloe vera gel actually smells faintly like onion. It’s good for skin but does not smell too good. Then there’s soap called Cashmere silk. Cashmere is the soft undercoat from a goat. LOLOL Soft…yup…but hair! It’s ALL ABOUT MARKETING PLOYS for ignorant, uneducated people to follow. I live rural, and raise goats and make soap from their creamy milk. This makes a great unscented soap that’s gentle on skin and cleanses wonderfully with NO chemicals. A clean body that smells (((like a body)))) has natural attractants (pheromones) and is sexier than anything any manmade scent can claim to be better. I sure don’t want my husband to smell like fruits or chemicals. I like ~his~ scent…clean and natural. And hair? MMmmmmm, I personally love it- love to rub it, run my fingers thru it- you bet! What woman doesn’t love to wear one of her husband’s shirts when he’s away? Why? Because it’s scented like him…not the harsh chemicals in Axe or Irish Spring detergents, or Snuggle fabric softener perfumes…gak.

Get real people. Real IS sexy.

Aren’t there much more important things for us to be concerned with, spending our money on than fake scents and scraped bodies ????

This has gotten on my nerves for quite awhile now. It is absolutely absurd to think that a man SHOULD shave his body. Understandably, a body builder and men that want to show off their bodies. . . DO IT!
And while on the subject of hair. . . What is up with men who color their head and facial hair to cover up that wonderful greying? This ‘coloring’ is not fooling anyone guys. A look at the men on TV should tell you that! NO ONE has just one color of hair. Please inform these guys that want to color that they need to go to a professional to look professional!

It all boils down to how you feel about yourself.
I’m a hairy guy, and I have the body of a grown man.
Like or not, it’s who I am. No shame!
If some women want to keep wasting there time with “metro” men who want to look like 14 year olds, oh well. I’m in the military, and have lived in many other countrys… and in many, if you don’t have a nice carpet on your chest, you wont get a second look from the ladys.
Only in the west do people have hang ups about men looking like men…
Get happy with who’s looking at you when you look in the mirror, and then all this waxing, and plastic surgery, wieght loss craze that people are hooked on wouldn’t be such a big deal.
keep yourself, clean, healthy, and love thyself..
I look at all these male and female models in the media and giggle at how phonie they are.
