Underarm hair only gets smelly if you don't wash. There's nothing wrong with the smell of fresh sweat on a guy... in fact, some of us quite like it. :)

I don't think that's entirely true. I think it gets smelly more easily even with washing on some people compared to others. In a similar way, I have had some girlfriends who have hair in some other place where women have hair that didn't smell at all, and some that had a similar amount of hair there that smelled something awful.

Anyway, it's good that there are women who are flexible. I'm not personally sure I would change my body grooming habits for a women who didn't like a shaved chest or whatever.... I don't ask for changes in grooming either.
 
My chest and back are covered. Have been since I was 15. Was interesting being an early developer. Most people I've been with haven't minded the chest hair, but didn't really like the back hair. But I wont shave any part of my body besides my face because it's time consuming and itchy growing back. So they'll just have to deal, I have to say I do like being hairy the way I am though ;)

Yes, but as you pointed out, fresh sweat quickly becomes old sweat. If it's on someplace non-hairy, like a forehead, it generally evaporates and doesn't get really rank. Having hairy pits just traps all that stuff and let's it...you know.

Aside from the smell, I always hated the feel of a rather large clump of wet hair under each arm.
 
I can (literally) count the number of hairs on my chest - I'm 26 and nearly hairless in that spot. So, no I don't shave.. I stand behind all 34 of them with pride. :D

..teh Womens shaving: It doesn't really bother me, to be honest. I would prefer women shave their armpits (and no mustaches or leg or chest hair on the ladies, thx), but I know one or two that buzz rather than shave their pits and it's no big deal, really.


...and WHY is it called a 'happy trail'?

Because it leads to things that make you happy. ;)

Good to hear :) Live with what God gave you. :)

Oh man, you should wax those little suckers off or something! :p It's almost like seeing a comb-over, don't you just want those poor sods to give it up and go Bruce Willis?

(I keeed, it's your body, do what you please. :))

And the happy trail thing, I am not sure how everyone defines it but I think of it as the little trail of hairs from the belly button down to the happy bits. I think a little happy trail is kind of cute, actually.
 
The only person this matters to is your (sexual) partner, and I suggest listening to whatever they say. I know which bits of hair I don't like and my wife is free to ask me to shave where she wants me to. It really is no more complicated than that.

"Is that a $4,000 espresso maker in your pants or are you just happy to see me?"

Chest hair is almost nil (as is facial hair.. three days for a five o'clock shadow) but from the waste down -- ooooh -- I've got some hair. Legs, I mean. Legs.

iBlue: Happy bits. Bits? Bits?! :D
 
Hair doesn't bother me one way or the other.

Unless it's an alopecia issue, the hairless obsession seems like it has a pre-pubescent connection. /* ducks and covers */ But I'm not necessarily saying you're all perverts. :p
