Men who shave their chests? Does this happen? Err outside of San Francisco that is [img]tongue.gif[/img] I refuse to shave to 18 chest hairs I have [img]smile.gif[/img]

ladyzekke: I always thought it was kinda weird for a guy to shave anything other than face or head. Then again, I've always liked a kinda hairy chest (on a man) and beards too, although some guys look better without facial hair. I've even talked guys I've known into either shaving their face, or growing a mustache, just to see the difference. My husband went back and forth doing that. It was like being married to 2 men.

LordKathen: I don't trust any guy to come near me with sharp objects. (Long story)

About the back hair... I don't have any, but if a guy did then he is pretty much stuck with it. I sure wouldn't care to run a razor up and down my back without knowing where it was going. My skin is on my body, and I'd like it to stay there [img]tongue.gif[/img] . Plus, we'd probably miss a lot too and end up looking very strange with strips of hair running up and down his back. ;)

Do whatever you feel like. Keep in mind that the vast majority of males in western society (myself included) like hairless female legs, but if shaving is something you seriously don't want to do (or simply can't be arsed doing) then don't. On the whole, most guys arn't so superficial as to let leg-hair get in the way of a good relationship anyway.
Waxing seems good on a 'don't-have-to-do-it-so-often' basis (if I would wax my face then I would), just grit your teeth and go for the gusto!
As a male, I personally shave my face often, although sometimes if I feel like it I grow one of those little chin-stripe beards, they're so cool. I also shave my tummy too, makes it all nice and smooth. I don't shave my chest though, don't wanna risk nicking my nipples :D

Exactly man. How could you actually remove backhair in all practicality (besides getting someone else to remove it for you, which you'd probably have to pay them a fair sum to do [img]tongue.gif[/img] )? It'd be one hell of a task, that's for sure.

Just try the wax - it does hurt, but it's worth the effort. Women have higher pain treshholds than men anyway ;) [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Try wax strips rather than the stuff you have to melt yourself. You can also get oriental wax, which is sugar-based and can be washed off with water [img]smile.gif[/img]
I usually just shave but wax is handy for in the summer.

On the subject in general, I'm sorry I ever started doing it! I'm a light blond and had hardly any hair until I started the bloody shaving business. And I also agree with some people here that you shouldn't shave to live up to some bloody man's ideal if you really don't want to yourself. Or ask him to get rid of his beerbelly first :D [img]tongue.gif[/img] LOL
I think it's pretty ridiculous the way some men expect women to bend over backwards to be aesthetically pleasing when they themselves often look absolutely horrible. I do shave because I like the smoothness and I do like to be appreciated by my b/f, but I don't feel obliged to.

At <font color=lavender>Galadria's</font> suggestion, I had my back waxed, once. Didn't hurt hardly at all, but it was expensive. So, now, when she complains, I make her do it herself. ;) It is one of life's sad ironies that, as a man looses his top hair, he gains it on his back (and, often, ears). [img]tongue.gif[/img]
