Men: Do you shave your legs, arms and everything below the neck?

[twoodcc]

well, i barely keep up with shaving my face.

one time they had to cut my arm pit hair for a drug test (for a job). that was weird

 

[Abstract]

Normal to you but not natural.

I really think this is some ingrained desire for man to seperate ourselves from beast. Perhaps while in our natural hairy state we remind ourselves too much of our relative primates. Whats next, shaving eyebrows?

They already do it in Japan. Some people shave off (or drastically reduce) their eyebrows and draw in the shape they like (usually thin eyebrows).

Lets see if this one gets as hilarious as the first.

everything but my legs

 

[donga]

no dude. no point unless you're a swimmer or pr0nstar or something

I lol'd @ the OP changing the title of the thread at least twice.

Oh, no I don't shave anything below my neck. Might trim a certain area to make a certain body part seem bigger. *winks at the ladies*

😀

 

[iAlan]

I do trim my naughty area - it makes the naughty bit look bigger (as pointed out above), not that I need it to look bigger, now I sound defensive about iAlan-Junior, not that it is junior, again defensive. I think I will go now.

😛

This reminds me of a stupid one-liner "My girfriend/boyfriend/other has hair all down her/his/its back - none on her/his/its head, just down her/his/its back'

Had to cover all contingencies with the above, not wanting to exclude anyone/anything

😛

Oh, I do pull grey hairs out of my chest - not exactly shaving but below the neck. I can also pull rabbits out of hats.

😛

And just to reiterate, it isn't small

😛

So you're small?😕

[blurredline]

ohhhh, Manscaping, it's the best.
If it makes me look even better than I already do, then sure why not. haha, just kidding! But seriously, gotta keep it all clean and "presentable"

 

[Chappers]

I don't shave - it's waxing only for real men.

 

[davidjearly]

No, because I'm a real man. 😉

But, whatever floats your boat OP. I prefer to ensure that I am floating my partner's boat.

 

[iAlan]

😛

No one has complained yet and it is well used 😱

I couldn't imaging fully shaved though. Not that I am hairy all over, but a bald patch anywhere other than the top of your head is just not natural. What if you change your mind after completing said shave, you can't get a wig for it can you?

😛

 

[Randman]

I think grooming above the neck is more important. Having hair cut to a decent length for your age/profession. Shaving when appropriate (though a few days' stubble is also cool). Make sure nose hair is well-managed and no bushery hanging out. Make sure eye brows don't get overly bushy. Getting older and now the inside of the ears need a quick trim once a week or so.

During summer months or when involved in a vigorous hobby/activity, I'll shave off the armpit hair. And I'll trim not shave the nether regions though to be honest, this is better done with someone else (I'll trim you, you shave me) as it too can lead to some vigorous activity/hobby.

Sadly, it would appear that you can. See here and here.

 

[Gray-Wolf]

An answer to the original question, Absolutely NOT! I have hairy arms and legs. 😀

I also have a full beard.

Since you're from Ancient Egypt you should be a dab hand at body-sugaring… no?
😉

 

[Queso]

Absolutely not. The mere thought of it makes my stomach turn.

 

[Melrose]

Arkitect: Haha you said merkin. 😀

And iAlan, never underestimate the power of the 'extra visual inch.' That is, of course, if one needs it in the first place. 😀

my experience:
I let mine grow real long. Once, I was trapped on this little desert island, and to escape I waded out into the shallows and lashed two sea turtles together into a raft with ropes I braided from... my... hair. Ah, sweet escape!

Good Lord, not another one of these.

Good Lord, not another one of these.

I was thinking the same thing! Wouldn't this be awfully time consuming? Seems pretty obsessive to me as I find shaving my face to be bothersome. Wouldn't you have to do this several times a week for it to actually serve it's goal?

 

[sushi]

No, unless someone had a gun pointed to my head.

 

[cleanup]

Trim pubes shave bush. I'll admit the hair on my thighs is a bit annoying. Everything else is fine, though. Doesn't bother me. And I think shaved legs would look weird when I wear anything but running or board shorts.

 

[mlemonds]

no.

"Fellas, if you are going to shave your pubes, you better shave your whole body, because nothing looks weirder than a hairy gut, hairy legs and nothing in between. It looks like a garbage fire broke out on your n*****k."

Just curious what the original subject title was.
I saw one poster complain abo it and was wondering what the problem was.

 

[skunk]

Never. Nothing but hassle. Life is too short.
