I am a young woman, I'm not what you'd call "hippy", I look after my appearance and am basically just a "normal" person, but I don't shave my legs or underarms...

I wondered what your thoughts were on this, and on the notion that is so prevalent in today's society that women should shave, particularly their legs and underarms, and even  pubic area... 

I've had a chat with my friends about it, but it got me really curious about what a much larger group's response would be. Go!

TMI....

:)

I don't have any issue with anyone who doesn't shave. There are plenty of people in other countries that don't.

LOL that didn't apply to myself XD which i guess is also tmi... 

No i just meant if anyone had any opinions on that also, they're still of interest :') 

Eeewwwww.

I don't either....

The societies expectations for girls and women.

Ha ha ha, gee-whiz, it's great being a man! My wife would punch me right about here.

Anyway, it's your body. Do what you want.

The woman isn't ever going to get a fair shake until she takes it herself.

Nail > Head :)

I shave because I prefer it over dealing with body hair but everyone is different; what someone else chooses to do with their body is up to them.

I dont care what someone else does with their hairy or non hairy body parts,I just really dont.LOL

I kept coming back to the link for this.  Why does it matter?  I remove some hair, maybe more than some, certainly less than others, what does it matter except to the individual and possibly her partner.

I say partner because I saw a tv documentary, sorry no link, about men who prefer hairy women and some of those women were very hairy; beards the lot!

The important thing is to be comfortable in your own skin hair an all...

Interesting how the female body became such a public place.

I'm not sure you're really getting the answer that you seek. I'm seeing an awful lot of politically correct responses that it's your body, do what you want, I don't care, etc. All that is very true and I don't care what anyone does with their own stuff either. However, it seems, at least to me, you were curious as to the opinions of people about a particular choice. We all have opinions whether we are politically correct or not. My opinion is still eeeeww. I still don't care what you do, and there is no doubt in anyone's mind it's up to you what you do, but when I see it, eeewwwww. That's my opinion. Other than that...do what ya want sister!

Why is any hair on a man's forearm not eeewwww, but a woman's is?

Other parts I understand, but forearms?! I am a blonde, my hair is white anyway, but still, I would not shave. I am VS shaving anyway and like wax, because I don't want this porcupine feeling when I can't do it for 2 days.

I don't recall forearms being mentioned, or perhaps I missed it, and I don't recall saying that a man's hairy forearms weren't eeewwwww. I too am blonde and little if any hair shows...but that wasn't the question. I just find hairy underarms distasteful...male or female. But I support the right to have them. Yay me.
