I took this lady I've been seeing to a pool party and noticed she hadn't shaved her underarms, I was still very attracted to her and it didn't bug me. Am I weird?
No, it's normal that adult women grow hair under their arms. And it's also normal to be attracted to that, even though it isn't conforming to today's beauty standards. It's still a sign of adulthood. A century ago, most women didn't shave their underarms. So it's a relatively recent thing.
I like it as well, though it's a very rare sight. I've tried to convince my girlfriend to grow it out some time, but she doesn't want it. 2 weeks without shaving there was the longest I've seen, and her hair grows quite slow, so it wasn't much, not even 1/4 inch in length.

Well that depends. If she's doing it in a culture/society where it's abnormal then it means she's LAZY and self-centered. She believes that her laziness is more important than being feminine & by going along with it/her you are lowering yourself to also being a lazy person because it's easier to be non-confrontational.
If she's not lazy and she's doing it on purpose in a culture where it isn't normal then it is a symbol of her contempt for being feminine. On some level she wants to show that she doesn't care about traditional differences between masculinity and femininity. That might not sound like a big deal to you but, check out my mytakes for the traditional reasons why it is.
Nah it shouldn't bother people anyways if a woman doesn't shave her armpits. It's normal to be attracted to a grown woman that's been through puberty and now has hair there
No it’s not weird. You are better off ignoring society’s beauty standards and going off what you feel is correct for your own preference

No, you're normal.
Shaving is something relatively recent to the female beauty standard. It isn't something strictly necessary and many attractive women don't shave - whether out of statement or preference.
I personally choose to shave because I stink fast if I leave it.
I don't shave my legs or arms often, tho. Usually only when the fancy strikes me.For almost the entirety of human history, until some advertising executive needed a bump in razor sales to get a pay raise, women didn't shave... anything. Somehow they still found men to marry them and have children with them. Your own preferences are the only thing that matters in your relationship, not the marketing strategies of early 20th century blade manufacturers.
no, you are actually a lot normaler than a lot of guys haha.
Hairy armpits are masculine, there's no way around that.
Yes, it's natural for women to grow hair on their body, but it's also natural to shit on the ground and have bad breath. Just because it's natural, doesn't mean they should do it.
We're not animals. Shave your fucking pits ladiesits not weird, women have armpit hair, thats a fact, same as men, nothing weird about it but shaming social norms
Hair is natural. Shaving it off is not.
I find armpits very attractive when done right. Marilyn had them perfect…
It's a red flag because it means she is likely a woke feminist, and those women are not relationship material. Recreational use only.
Not weird to not mind and not weird if she doesn't shave.
I don't get the fascination with not shaving armpits. It's unhygienic. I shave mine in order that sweat doesn't build up on the hair.
I don't care. She's exceptional and comfortable like that. So why would I not mind. It's her underarms 🙂
you don't mind that's nice, I've had hairy pits
I don't see the big deal. A woman with hairy underarms can still maintain good hygiene. Doesn't mean she's dirty.
It's fine to be attracted to that because I am as well.
Nah it’s pretty old fashioned. Most heterosexual guys don’t care so long as they aren’t blue or have a dick
Technically it's weird to shave your underarms. Women just do it because it makes them more attractive to men. Also societal norms, yada yada.
I don't know if it's weird or not but I think it is disgusting.
Maybe you're attracted to men and not women at all. I noticed you posted your question anonymously instead of coming out of the closet.
You should not even care what others think about this.
Yes, it is. There's nothing wrong with it, per se, but it's definitely a little odd.
