Should I be embarrassed about having body hair?

[Anonymous]

I'm Latina and genetically some of us are either born with body hair or not. I wish i didn't have any. I'm so insecure about it. I don't mind getting waxed or anything but I want to be loved and accepted. I have hair on my arms legs under arms (common parts) where I'm embarrassed and insecure Is having hair down there , my tummy, my back and my bum.-. I've been called pretty and attractive. But I feel like once they see that I'm automatically ugly. Ugh...

[Anonymous]

I'm insecure about body hair too. I'm White British with blonde hair (that looks more ginger in some places). I get hair in the common places, arms, legs, underarms, "down there", bum, etc. But then I also get them in the strangest places and that's what I feel insecure about... I have a birth mark on my leg which gets a few hairs coming out of it and a mole that hasn't grown on my chin (I get a few hairs out of that too). My ex used to tell his guy friends and make fun of the random hairs that grow on my nipples, and the "snail trail" on my stomach. Even though they are hard to see and I shave them, it makes me super insecure. Especially that he made fun of them (what a dick?)

[chick4ever]

Do you have small hardly visible fuzz or it's visible fuzz/ hair?

[Opinion Owner]

@chick4ever Dude wtf is your obsession with body hair... F*ck off already lmao

[chick4ever]

Why mad. I just asked.:/

[Opinion Owner]

@chick4ever because you ask the same things on every single question.. Whether it's about body hair or not...

[natured]

I don't think you are ugly even if you are hairy, i am hairy too, and i am admitting this without hiding my identity because i really don't care what others have to say about this.

YES i do depilate the heck out of myself, and YES i look as if im a hairless sexbomb, but my boyfriend knows this, and he says that he still loves me, AND YES I HATE IT because it takes so much work,

You should just appreciate the fact that you are HEALTHY and you don't have other issues :) trust me, it's better being hairy rather than being bald because of cancer.

[CrystalChild]

I agree. Good for you with loving and accepting all of yourself!

[natured]

@CrystalChild Yep i do, I STILL DEPILATE THO !! lol <3

[JamesAt1986]

I would much rather a girl I am with have a full bush down there than looking like she is 10. All guys (before porn and modern fashion twisted everything) used to be turned on by this because the natural female body in a mature state is supposed to be attractive and beautiful.

[natured]

@JamesAt1986 YES you are very right, BUT it depends why you do it, i do it for hygienic reasons, it's more clean when you shave or depilate, at least down there and armpits... :)

[CrystalChild]

No one can tell you to love or hate your body for you. But if you want to know if that's normal, then yes, it is. As mammals we all have body hair all over our bodies. I have very light skin and dark hair. Most of my body hair is fine and not so noticable, but my stomach and leg hair are. Quite frankly I don't care if that's unattractive or not, I love all of my body. I hope you gain that inner confidence one day too xoxox much love

[angela_GA]

I'm latina too so I understand--some ethnic groups are hairier than others. People of Mediterranean descent (Spanish, Italian, French, etc.) are well known for having a lot of hair, and it's generally dark hair on light skin, so it shows up better. This is good because they usually have thick full heads of hair, but bad because they have a lot of body and facial hair. Don't worry about it, ur beautiful the way u are :)

[dolemite68]

latina girls are my favorite!! u guys are beautiful. body hair honestly doesn't bother me at all i think adults are suppposed to be somewhat hairy even women. i obviously dont want a girl with a thick mustache and armpit hair lol but a little peach fuz on ur upper lip is fine with me. and i prefer pussy hair trimmed not shaved i can't stand when its completely bare down there. and i really don't care if a girl has hair on her back or butt or arms or legs, as long as she occasionally makes an effort to shave here and there i'm cool. if she shaved everything once a month i'd be happy, smooth is nice but i'd rather she be a bit hairy than have prickly stubble

[ak666]

I have a couple of Indian sisters with hairier arms than I have and I find them stunning. They do shave/wax their legs and I'm not sure how I'd feel if their legs were hairier than mine, but being hairy for most of the areas you described never stopped me from finding a girl very attractive.

[ak666]

I have a couple of Indian sisters [as good friends, though I think of them like my own sisters] with hairier arms than I have and I find them stunning.

[chick4ever]

These girls have lot of arms hair but smooth legs?

[ak666]

@chick4ever Not naturally, I assume they shave their legs. They have lots of hair on the back too around the neck area and below. I still think they're so pretty. I drew a sketch of one of them because I found her so pretty:

https://i65.tinypic.com/ab1es6.jpg

[ak666]

Legs and pits they shaved, don't think anywhere else.

[chick4ever]

Wow, you are good artist. She had very visible hairy forearm and was absolutely comfortable with it? She wore half sleeves Shirt? There were two such hairy girl?

[chick4ever]

How do you know they had bush down there? :o

[ak666]

@chick4ever Oh, I don't know about crotch. :-D I never saw them naked. But yeah, the one in the drawing especially had very hairy arms and was totally a confident and secure about it. I sometimes compared my arms to her -- we held it out and she had more hair there than I did. Never stopped me from finding her and her sister so pretty.

[chick4ever]

Oh both were sisters haha ok. You both talked about arm hair? Damn... She was so comfortable. Did you ever see her stubbly legs?

[ak666]

@chick4ever Not just me but all kinds of other guys -- they were quite a popular pair with guys.

[chick4ever]

Damn... Why were they so popular with men?

[chick4ever]

You are Japanese maybe that's why you were smoother than them.. or they really had very hairy arms?

[ak666]

@chick4ever I think I caught them before with some stubble on the legs, maybe a couple of days without shaving. Didn't bother me so much. In my case my legs are all hairy with curly hair. If a girl had hairier legs than me, I must admit I might find that a bit off-putting, if only as a result of culture. Arms, back, areas like that don't bother me at all though.

[ak666]

@chick4ever I'm half-Japanese, half-white, and my arms and legs are actually hairier than most Japanese.. though I can't seem to grow much hair on the chest or back. :-(

[chick4ever]

Back? Girl can have lot of visible back hair?

[chick4ever]

Dude why are you dad about having hairless chest and back? Why

[chick4ever]

Sad****

[ak666]

@chick4ever Oh, I thought that was popular with women... like wolverine kind of look -- more manly, not so boyish.

[chick4ever]

Why assume that? Ever heard any woman say she likes hairy chest and stomach/ back? Did these Indian girls say it ever?

[ak666]

@chick4ever Oh no, that might just be me.. I just have this image I wish I looked like. I also have more facial hair than most Japanese, but the sides of my cheeks can't grow hair. I wish I could because I want a Clint Eastwood kind of look like this:

www.essentialstyleformen.com/.../..._Eastwood2.jpg

I don't know if girls like that look so much but I like it -- I wish I could look more like that.

[chick4ever]

Girls don't generally like it. Have you ever had a woman say she would like you more hairy?

[ak666]

@chick4ever Not really, especially not Japanese girls. They seem to like my kind of boyish looks for some reason.. but I always idolized all those macho types growing up, like Clint Eastwood as a cowboy, Mel Gibson as Mad Max -- I often wish I could look more like that. :-D

[chick4ever]

If you somehow got really very hairy chest and stomach?

[ak666]

@chick4ever If I just arbitrarily grew hair all around the torso, maybe it wouldn't look right on me. In my case I have kind of a slim build, pale complexion, dark hair. I think for it to look right I need a more powerful-looking build and darker complexion or lighter hair.

[chick4ever]

Did you see These Indian girls naked?

[ak666]

@chick4ever No, but seen in swimsuit. They have hair around the tummy as well, upper back, neck, arms. It all looks quite natural though because the hair grows in a uniform kind of direction.

[chick4ever]

Did they had hairy bikini line and hair Peeping out of butt?

[ak666]

@chick4ever If I remember correctly I think they had a modest kind of swimsuit that showed the tummy but the bottom wasn't so thin... no hairs sticking out though.

[chick4ever]

Wow. Lucky women. Were they dark brown skinned?

[ak666]

@chick4ever Fairly dark complexion, not super dark. Around this level:

www.rickety.us/.../..._of_Mahhabalipuram_India.jpg

[chick4ever]

Damn that's sexy color. She had darker knees and nipples? Did she had dark belly button hair?

[ak666]

@chick4ever You're very inquisitive with the details! :-) IIRC, I think slightly darker around joints, I've never seen their exposed breasts, and I don't think I had a close look around the belly button... one has a navel piercing though.

[chick4ever]

Can you message me!

[ak666]

@chick4ever Sure.

[AnaWryneck]

How can anyone see it if you wax it? Umm if you don't care you shouldn't care who likes it or not if you do rid yourself of it not a big problem

[1234not]

Yes, you should be embarrassed, then go get a fucking wax. Jesus, go buy some duct tape and year it off yourself. I don't understand why someone would be self conscious about something that is literally fixable in 20 minutes

[Sonjita]

Just vax it

[Cruciatusdeatheater]

My girlfriend has a bit of fuzz on her back just below her neck and in between the back part of her shoulders. She also has a small fuzz patch near her waist (also on her back). I find it adorable. That's just me. Me encanta tocarlo jaja, pero me dice que no le gusta tenerlo por la misma razón. Le digo que me gusta a mi, pero si se lo quiero rasurar en el verano, no la puedo parar. Es su cuerpo. Lo deja crecer durante el invierno. Me gusta. Se ve muy hermosa en mis ojos :3

[mrmojo]

Body hair is only natural. There are many men who won't mind.

[godfatherfan]

If a guy loves you he won't care. all women have hair to some degree unless they shave it. So unless your talking men kind of hair it can't be that bad. Plus, if you from an area where it happens more often, then it is going to be accepted even more. guys don't care about that kind of stuff as much as women seem to think.

[bree109]

girl no, you better love your self, most females are hairy. Just shave.

[littleheartbigbooty]

Same. I'm Italian and very hairy and I'm really insecure about it

[Benj19]

Dont be insecure about it, its probably not so bad as you think :) Guys dont really care about it

[notallthere98]

It's totally natural to have hair in all those places. Don't worry about it. It's completely fine

[Amelia444]

No , but if it makes insecure shave or use hair removal

[Dargil]

Being "downy" comes with being Mediterranean or Latina. It can be a turn ON.

[JoyGirl]

There is nothing wrong with you... lol
I have hair on my legs (I get rid of it...), arms, armpits (shave), and a bit on my stomach (I shave that, too... lol 😆).
Don't worry, your not alone. I go through all that, too... lol
Just find something that will help you get rid of them, for instance... shaving, leg remove cream etc.

[Jager66]

if it's such a big deal why not get it permanently lazered off?

[capturemyheartnow]

Body hair is not a bad thing at all. In fact I feel that a little bit of body hair in the right places like underarms and pubic hair is very attractive. Still body hair on other parts of the body too should be acceptable.

[curiousmehehe]

my ex had some hairs i really liked it

[Dtegesd123]

if its just fuzz, I don't see any problem with it. But if you have say a hair line on your tummy. I'd be turned off.

[jacquesvol]

It's often charming.

[Browneye57]

Being hairy has nothing to do with your race or ancestry - it is genetic. One or both of your parents has hairy people in your lineage.

So never to worry, there are plenty of men that will love you and not give it any thought. Keep yourself shaved or waxed where it counts - your underarms and pubes, legs, shape your brows, and then don't worry about the rest. Just be the best person you can possibly be and it simply won't matter. I'll be you have great hair on your head! And look at me - NONE! LOL

In case you didn't know, everybody has body hair - we are all mammals. Some just have more than others. ;)

[Wolfman94]

Never be ashamed girl, you're beautiful no matter what. My girlfriend has natural body hair the same as you describe and I don't think it takes away her beauty at all I think it's all part of what makes her beautiful. I'm from French decent and we are natually hairy, (chest, lower back and butt are my problem areas) so I know your feelings I got insecure and still do at times. :) just remember you're beautiful being natural nature is beauty and so are you

[Leandri]

There is nothing wrong with you. You are perfect the way you are and you will find that special one who will love you just that way. I know I have found one

[chick4ever]

But you personally hate very hairy man! 😂🙌

[Leandri]

@chick4ever never said i hate them,

[chick4ever]

Almost hate... Means sexually repulsive
