More and more men are now removing their legs and arm hair after the trend of chest/back hair removal. Some of the reasons for male leg hair removal are : 1.) Looks weird to have shaved chest/stomach and groin but hairy arms and legs. 2.) Having hairy legs and arms seems odd/weird next to a woman's body. 3.) There is too much of coarse thick hair growth almost hairy stockings 🤣
How do you personally feel about this male legs and arm hair removal?
I think such beauty standard is unsustainable... even for women you know how many things in life i missed cause i didn't shave? like I had not time to shave so i didn't went to pool cause society would be gorssed out about me and make me feel terrible. When it got hot i couldnt remove my cardigan since my armit hair was a bit too much. You know how much time I waste shaving? And it growes always on and on... I compltely understand that you want to look "bettter" and that smooth skin can be more appealing than hairs but is such standard of beauty worth all the hessle? I dont mind guys or girls being hairy. You may trim your beard and private parts cause that can get in the way but any thing else isn't really neccessary. I however have nothing against someone that shaves but i hate that im obligated to or id be shamed. A lot of women dont like their bodies also cause of that reason. Its important that one has a choice in it.
Okay we should not be slaves to shaving , but see even you do realise that shaved smooth skin is nicer and better than lot of hairy skin especially in case of a man's body since men have coarser darker thicker hairs. Some men's hairs is so coarse and thick especially on the torso and even back
Ok so I'm a laser and dermal therapist which means I remove hair semi-permanently from males and females now on males I have literally done head to toes with a lot of men this is all normal personally I just prefer trimmed I guess mine is more the back of shoulders or the chest and stomach definitely the pubic area that I want less hair here instead of so much the arms and legs but that's my opinion
yes it is but I get it you have a chick hanging over your groin aria applying a stimulant ( laser ) to the aria you have no choice but they often feel imbarased and scared
most are usually a one therapist kinda man. won't lie men are more committed to their therapist then MOST are to their woman. yes they want to feel comfortable in a vulnerable situation
I like arms and legs somewhat natural, unless hair is ridiculously long. But I can’t stand chest hair at all, like at all. I feel like throwing up when I see hair on a man’s chest. Same with hair on his back. Don’t like hair sticking out of noses or ears. But I like thicker eyebrows and almost any kind of facial hair. Go figure.
That's so hard and confusion. Men need to shave/wax their torso while shaving legs/thigh/arms isn't seen as very appealing , and sometimes even seen as girlie/gay. So difficult to understand. You can't even stand a light dusting of chest hair, happy trails but you prefer natural on legs arms etc. Wouldn't it look weird to have smooth hairless torso but lot of leg, thigh and arms hair. ( Am talking about lot of leg hair as in the picture above).
I know right. It is such a weird preference. Honestly, I personally think I have a dislike for chest hair from having watched all these Bollywood films where some men have a lot of chest hair and they pair that with a satin shirt. I can’t help but think ‘Indian uncle/the bad guy from Bollywood’ when I see that.
Body hair was one of the first, if not the first, thing I was insecure about growing up, so I think hairless definitely looks better.
It may be seen as feminine, but some guys who go to the gym, as well as bodybuilders, do it, as it brings out muscle definition, making a person's muscles look bigger and more defined.
I've been shaving my arms for years and think it looks better regardless and I've been working out for about 2 1/2 years, despite being slim, so it looks better to me and makes me look bigger.
I don't think it is terrible for guys to do this, I don't. I am lucky that I don't grow a lot of hair, I only shave my face every few weeks and, while I do have arm or leg, my hair isn't a coat. I do know that a lot of women like the feel of a man next to them in bed, this includes the hair on the legs and body. For example, I heard one girl doesn't shave one of her legs sometimes, when she is alone, so she would get the feeling of a man next to her.
Never cared about that tbh. Barely can tell 5 mins later if that Guy I talked to, had a beard or not. Improve your social skills - then your hair don’t matter. If I want to touch waxed Legs, I’ll touch a girl.
When a man has a very hairy chest and stomach and doesn’t feel comfortable with it and WANTS to wax or shave, then he should go for it! Just the same with men’s beards: some prefer to have one some don’t. Decide what you are most comfortable with and wear it with confidence. Confidence is the best decision you can make with or without hair! If you know what I mean..
I know, I'm not trying to be mean, I'm just an open book with what I am feeling when I see certain things is all and that is the first feeling that I had :)
I think it looks good shaved or waxed! A little maintenance is always welcomed too. Though I definitely feel like for men or women, it should be a personal choice. Self comfort comes before looks.
I dont mind men getting hair removal. If they want to do it, so be it. Its your body. Just make sure you're doing it for yourself and not for other people
I dont prefer anything. But i respect the decision to get hair removal. If you like shaven legs, then go get em. As long as you're okay with yourself, you're good
I’m not a fan of hair removal on men. Whether a little or a lot, I like their body hair. I want to see it and feel it against my skin if I get cozy with him.
Body hair doesn’t really matter much to me. It’s a natural part of life and I think more acceptance of that should be encouraged. So whatever a guy wants to do with his body hair is fine with me, as long as you’re clean lol. If I like you, I’m going to be attracted regardless.
Not in my eyes. If a guy personally doesn’t want to shave it, then that’s for him to decide. I’m not the type of person to shame someone into shaving, etc. just so I might be more attracted. Those things shouldn’t matter, to me. If the guy is happy with it, then so am I and that’s what’s important.
Hairy balls and all lol. If my guy doesn’t want to shave down there, that’s his choice. Just as long as you’re clean. I’ve gotten a pube in my mouth before and just got it out and kept going lol. I mean, it’s just hair.
Mr you know my opinion on this. haha truth be told do whatever feels f****** best ;) tho as in other discussion you know it's les the legs and arms and more the rest
I don’t know why men shave. Once I caught my ex-brother-in-law shaving his chest & his legs too. I met a guy on OkCupid, I saw pictures of him & a video, he looked like he shave his arms & his legs. Why don’t leave some hairs.
Because we see shaved skin everywhere In movie, sportspersons, models, everywhere in real life , women Also if we shave we get 2-3 extra days before we have to shave again. Trimming would require more frequent
I don't care about what other guys do, but I like my hair.
I'm a mammal, not a reptile.
And before anyone asks, no, I'm not a hypocrite who expects women to shave and wax and get rid of all their hair. I leave grooming up to them, as long as their hair is CLEAN, there's no problem.
On men I think some body hair looks nice, but in moderation and preferably trimmed. Many men suits a beard, some chest hair, arm and leg hair. Some hair down there is also okay as long it's trimmed. I think they can wax the back though. Ear and nose hair should be trimmed short.
On women I think hair other places than the head, eyebrows and eye lashes are unattractive, but not a deal breaker.
I think if the guy has a lot of hair it feels and looks best trimmed down maybe with a 1/2 or 1 inch blade. If they take it all off it looks too feminine. I’ve done both and really prefer the light tone of hair.
Didn’t vote cos I’m not quite sure. I tried epilating and it was painful as hell, waxing wasn’t as bad but still too much pain and so messy so I tried shaving which is nice for couple of weeks or so until the hair is like spikes and was not comfortable with whatever I wear until I came up with trimming the hair, won’t look smooth or hairless ( like having some hair tbh lol) and it doesn’t look weird as the hair is long and thick.
I don’t like it to be extremely hairy, but I don’t want it to be completely bare either. I feel like it makes a man look too feminine. I feel like the guy should have some leg hair, just not too hairy.
Whatever floats your boat! I used to shave my legs before a gig because they look like shit (and also don't feel very nice) in pantyhose with hair all over them!!
All your 3 points are invalid insofar as they touch only personal taste. I would treat is like the 'beard question': grow it if you want. Remove it if it makes you happier.
In my opinion boys r built like that and obviously we are too but it's more natural if boys leave there hair like that and they will want too was it or shave it because it might get too bunched up
I don't like completely shaved legs on a guy. And I think some hair on the chest is fine. Underarm, prefer shaven. When it gets to the personal areas, either trimmed or removed.
No way, that's just weird. It makes a guy look like a woman or a child.
I have literally never known a guy who removed his leg or arm hair except one who was a competitive cyclist. In fact I think the trend is going in the other direction... society has become increasingly accepting and appreciative of male body hair over the last few years.
Now society has grown to love men with shaven legs as well. Gone are the days when hairs was seen as masculine and nice , especially if too much as in the picture above.
LOL, not so much. Sounds to me like you are trying to convince yourself and others of that but it's just not true. As can be seen in most of the responses here from females, they find shaved arms and legs on a guy to be feminine and off putting. Hair on arms and legs is masculine and normal women love masculinity.
Best of luck to you in your efforts to outsmart mother nature. You're gonna need all the help you can get with hat. LOL
I should add that you should go ahead and shave your legs if you want to. You will just be limiting yourself to a certain category of women who prefer more feminine guys, and that's OK as it seems that would suit you well so it's all good.
No, they don't prefer shaved chest and stomach. I mean there are a small handful who do, but the vast majority of women prefer unshaven chest, stomach, arms and legs. The only ones who don't are the same women who prefer feminine men.
No, they obviously don't. That has been clear in all of the questions you have asked recently about shaving your hair. Are you not reading the responses?
Just like a say a female should do whatever she wants with her body a man should do whatever he wants with his as well but he better not be the same person saying a girl needs to be all shaved bc if so he better too
Never had that with someone so I don't have that experience? But personally, normally a girl likes a hair guy cause it's natural. If its trimmed so its not as long then that seems fine too. Bare looks a little too girlish? But it also depends on the girl you are with too! Some girls like it thaaat hairy, some like bears, some don't mind hairless. Honestly its case by case basis.
I think in some situations such as uh... 'intimate' ones, some girls don't want to feel their smooth legs against another pair of smooth legs, mainly because women are used to being with hairy legged guys.
That's a thing i guess. Since women are used to having hairy legged men that they find it a bit new and weird thing. Or else why would it be a problem for a woman to rub her smooth legs with another smooth legs if a man... it would only be more pleasurable and the women already are used to rubbing their smooth leg against their own another smooth leg...
Sounds like a lot of work. As long as it is not overly bushy I think having hair is fine. It is just going to keep growing back, might as well just leave it be.
I am not saying I would never do it. If I could afford laser hair removal so it is permanent I would do it all over, but it is not that big a deal that I can't.
Chest and back I can understand, those type of hair tend to be disgusting. But leg and arm hair, excluding armpit hair, is just taking it too far. Simp is the term to describe people who do that.
That's too small of a sample to be meaningful. There have been loads of vox pops done by magazines, etc. and the consensus is that back and ass hair is gross and should be removed, chest and pubic hair should be trimmed (shave your balls if you want her to lick them) and arm and leg hair is manly.
Your legs can't be that hairy.. And from the looks of it for some strange reason your legs look shiny? Shiny hairless legs are associated with poor circulation. What your doing could have the opposite effect of what your trying to do because it my appear (off) or unhealthy to some people, just like being overweight or chubby is seen as being unhealthy
