Should I shave every part of my body? do I have to?

Question

Hi, I’m 17, and I’m confused if I don’t shave my whole body like does that I’m not a “real” women because I’m hairy?  Am I supposed to shave like almost everywhere if I’m a girl?

That has nothing to do with being a woman, humans grow body hair, it's just natural, if someone expect you not to grow hair cause you are a woman then they gotta grow up, you don't HAVE to shave your body but many women do cause there's people that don't like body hair on a woman but body hair is natural even for women so how you shave and making the decision to shave or not is up to you and you only and it doesn't make you any less of a woman for having hair, women look better without hair for the majority but don't feel like less of a woman for having hair, it's a natural human thing for both men and women.

I think most consider it pretty, attractive, girly if you shave your armpits, legs and the top of your big toe (if hair is growing there).

In winter time and when your legs are covered and you are not wearing open toed shoes or sandals and long sleeve shirts and coats you can let that go for a while and let it grow out.

If you are being intimate sexually with someone it is good to trim up your girly area and make it neat. I LOVE that little groomed triangular patch down there instead of "bald" so don't feel too pressured to go bald down there when you are with a partner.

No, that's fucked up to say, even.

Real women are people who identify as women. And no, you don't have to shave if you're a girl.

Shave if you like to, but as a girl, you have body hair. That's normal and natural.

Whoever says no girls have hair watches too much porn.

One of the best feelings in the world are freshly shaved legs. One of the worst are poorly shaved/regrowing armpits.

There's no rule nor law saying women should shave their bodies.

If you don't want to shave it's ok, many men have no problem with hairy women, if you want to shave it's also ok.

It's your body so it's your choice to make and no one else.

I'm a guy but I'd recommend that u shave ur pubes and armpits coz if u let it grow then it can lead to hygiene issues. For the face it's better to wax it off than shave. For ur legs and arms too its better to wax but if u can't then shaving is also fine. I don't like body hair so i trim literally my whole body except for my head😂.
In the end except for the pubes and armpits, rest is not necessary, do the rest only if u don't like body hair like me😂.
I only prefer my partner keep their pubes and armpits clean coz of the hygiene issues, and i don't mind the rest at all.

Shave or don't shave whatever the hell you want. When I was your age, the only thing girls shaved was their legs and armpits. Just don't shave off your eyebrows, that's crazy lady shit.

Except your pubes, you don't have to shave there, that's my personal opinion, but legs, arms, armpits for sure

You don't have to shave anything, its your body, do what you want.

You do not have to shave anything. Shaving does not make you a woman. There are plenty of women that are hairy.

riverrat3 · Answer

If you do not want to shave, don't, it is your body your choice, nature gave you hair for a reason, regardless of what everyone says is best

Yes. Girls are supposed to be bald. Sorry for the honesty.
