That would be a "no" both for me and on behalf of my girlfriend.
In fact, thinking it was the fashion, one time, to surprise her, I shaved everything. Pubes, armpits, chest, legs.
She was surprised all right. She hated it. She said it made her feel like she was a child molester. She said she wants a man who looks like a man and not a boy who has yet to experience puberty.
Works for me, too. First, because all that shaving was a lot of work. In fact, I don't get it, beards seem to be "in" right now, presumably because guys can't be bothered to shave. Yet they have the time to shave everything else? Better still, as per this question, to do it in a high tech sort of way? Go figure.
That said, I shave my beard in the spring and summer months, but otherwise everything is natural. (I have a beard in the fall and winter only because I loathe cold weather and a beard just makes me feel a bit warmer.)
Besides, evolution gave us body hair for a reason. It is a signal to the female that we are sexually mature and can produce sperm to make babies. Also, it traps pheromones that our bodies produce that make us more sexually attractive. So when you shave your body hair, you are effectively sending your sex appeal into space.
Not gonna do that. Besides, my girlfriend, when she is feeling cutesy, likes to call me "her furry little bear." So - - - "furry little bear" I am, "furry little bear" I intend to remain. The only fur on me to go is in late March - and by that point the girlfriend and our children are ready to see it go and they don't want to see it again till November.

Thankfully, I don’t need to get laser hair removal because I am a naturally unhairy guy. Other than a small amount of hair in my armpits and around my genitals, I am virtually hairless from the neck down. Even my facial hair is very limited, and only requires shaving once every 4 or 5 days. I have zero hair on my chest and back, upper arms and legs and butt. My penis and balls are almost entirely devoid of hair too. So laser hair removal would probably be a waste of time and money for a guy like me. And by the way, I like my body just the way it is, and don’t feel “less manly” because I don’t have body hair or a beard! I feel plenty masculine with the body I have, thank you very much. ☺️
Do whatever makes you most comfortable in your own body!
I personally don't care whether a guy has hair or doesn't. I don't like the feel of shaved hair tho in the private areas. I'd rather you left a groomed little bush haha but if you wanted to laser that, so long as it's not stubbley and itchy
That's great! If people are not happy about something and have the possibility to do something about it I'm all for it. I also did laser hair removal a few years ago and recommend it to everyone who wants to get rid of any body hair.

Their body, their business. Yea I don’t like hairy
I've been getting Brazilian waxed for years. I love the look and how I feel. I actually enjoy the appointments, too. My only complaint is how I look at week 4. It's a mess. I need an appointment and the hair is just barely long enough for the wax to grab. This is the reason I've been thinking of getting laser removal. It'd be so nice to always be squeaky clean.
To answer the question, it's just fine for a guy to laser away whatever hair he wants.
I have considered it. Ever since my time in the military I cannot stand having facial hair. I work for a law enforcement agency that has the same grooming standards as the military. I cannot shave everyday because my skin is sensitive and over the last 2 years I have started getting razor bumps. Even without this career, I would prefer it if I could keep a permanent clean shave.
If that's what they would do, that's okay. Personally, I wouldn't do the laser removal, it's pricey, there are multiple sessions you'd have to do, and you have to be careful being out in the sun. I think you would have tender or sensitive skin depending upon each area you do this on. Shaving with a razor or waxing for smooth or hairless results I think is better.
If he wanted it, I wouldn't have an issue with it. Some people have a lot of issues with ingrown hairs and folliculitis so I totally get the appeal. As for weather or not I think that many men would do it... lol a lot of men are emasculated at the thought of skincare and a bunch of other grooming practices and would rather obligate women to hair removal so I doubt many would even prioritize any cosmetic procedure lol
Why not
I think it’s best for men who do not want to not have any body hair because it’s way better than shaving. Shaving causes constant skin irritation and pimples. And also they have to do so every 2 days which is annoying and time consuming.
I do wax (it’s a monthly thing for me extremely tiring) but I’m also considering laser removal. I suggest it for both women & men! It is costly but I’m saving up for it. I want to start with arms , legs firstWho cares, I certainly have hair in places that are unwanted. So if someone is willing to take this approach to it. I am more concerned about what selective boiling your skin really does in the long run.
I think it's fine.
I've never done it before, but if I could easily remove hair permanently, I'd do almost my entire body, as I've never been a fan of body hair in general.
What man would want to remove his body hair? Body hair is a blessing.
I want to get a body hair transplant! My legs are so smooth it is not even funny! Last summer, I had on shorts and the dude asked me if I shaved my legs. I was so embarrassed 😞
Here is proof. This is why I wear pants all year aroundI'm fine with it. I'm not a fan of body hair anyways.
I considered it once, but never have done it. Now that i know more about it, i’m not interested at all.
wouldn't bother me as long as it wasn't on his face (i like beards)
I find that close to the gay side.
For fairness, I would not request it from my girl either.
I have no thoughts on it. It's really none of my business.
I have some native American in me, I have very little body hair.
No, I'd rather him keep his body hair because I think it's hot
I looked into getting a Brazilian wax a couple of times. I thought that even the pain might be a turn on with the right girl giving it to me.
Nope. Can always shave or wax if something wants to be tried. Can be a courtesy to a girl if she does the same.
Meh you do you.
I'm not sure how popular hairy ape looking men are.
Be nice to get this on my neck. I always get razor burn when I shave my neck.
