Am I merely suffering from poor body image?

[Anonymous]

I am having a really hairy body. I feel so sick creepy and gross looking at my own body. It's like I want to hide my own body from myself, I can't imagine a girl ever actually liking me and finding me worth her.

I tried shaving once, it looked nice initially but was scratchy itchy and stubbly prickly after a week or so. Not a great experience at all.

How to have self acceptance about my fucked up cursed body?

At least aesthetically and sexually it is fucked up for sure.

Accept yourself for who you are, most men have body hair and some have more than others and some have non at all. There are woman out there who love hairy men (me included, the username is a giveaway). If you are confident, kind and a good person to be around then I can guarantee that girls will like you for you. You can always try waxing or buy a No-no hair removal system to rid yourself of your body hair ( I personally think you shouldn't) or trim it back with clippers lightly.

Are you for real? I mean you actually have your username about hairy men! Never thought someone can do that as well :)
I have tried close trimming my whole body including legs and arms , though didn't liked the regrowth stage at all. :(
So, you have always liked hairy, I mean really hairy men?
Do you accept hairy weird places as in hairy shoulders, side of back, upper arms and necks apart from other places?

[hairydudesrock]

As I said I don't have issue with body hair anywhere on a man, if a man is a good, kind decent person then does it matter if he is covered head to toe or if he's baby smooth all over. There are women out there who are hairiness as a sign of virility.

[hairydudesrock]

The above should have read 'there are women who see hairiness in men as a sign of virility'.

And yes, I have always liked hairy men, there's nothing quite like snuggling up to a hairy bloke and running fingers through his chest hair

[Asker]

YES it would matter if the guy is covered in hair , pube type hair, head to toe, looks and sex appeal IS also a thing and it DOES matter.

[hairydudesrock]

It does matter to some women so you can't tar all women with the same brush. If you yourself go in with attitude assuming that women have an issue with your body hair then it will be your attitude that puts women off rather than your body hair. One of my male friends is hairy all over and he's never had an issue with woman , in fact he seems to attract some stunners so I think going in with a good demeanor helps a great deal

[Asker]

I don't know I feel male body and facial in general is a male curse and I personally am wayy too hairy than an average man. What's sexy in having bush on body and face? Nothing!
So, your furry male friend personally has no problem with being furry all over?
Is he rich? How can he attract many women including stunners, since hair , average hairy male body isn't acceptable by women in general.

[hairydudesrock]

And incidentally body hair can vary in texture just like hair on our heads. Some men have very soft and fine body hair, some have straight hairs, some have thick coarse curly hairs and some have something between the two. If your body hair bothers you then buy the no-no hair removal system and rid yourself of it, there is no point in being unhappy and unsure of yourself. A confident man that's happy in his own skin is one of the sexiest things ever.

[Asker]

Yeah it varies, and mine is as coarse and curly as an average persons pubes, go figure.
And guess what I have hairy shoulders upper arms sides of back in addition to very hairy full front torso

[hairydudesrock]

And? I don't see anything wrong with that and there are other women out there who will think the same. When I get a pimple I always think it's bigger than what it is, your body hair probably isn't anywhere as near as bad as you think it is. If you're troubled by it then remove it.

[Asker]

What's best option?
I tried waxing bit it's very painful on stomach and chest.
Tried shaving and trimming bit the regrowth is stubbly and prickly. A lifelong curse?

[hairydudesrock]

Why not accept yourself for how you are? You have body hair and you're a man and believe me that's like cat nip to some women

[hairydudesrock]

Thanks for giving me MHO :-). Was just being honest

[pinkbubble]

Waxing is better , it lasts longer and themore u wax hair gets smallerand softer. Anyways hair is natural especially for a guy , its due to hormones and tbh there is nth wrong in being hairy.

[Asker]

Does regular waxing lessen even excess male body hair? I have heard it softens and reduces average female body hair.

[pinkbubble]

Yes it does hh
U can also try trimming u know some girls like hairy. Really ^^

[Asker]

Yes some do like an average hairy male body hair , but even after trimming a very hairy man can't be as good as what a naturally less hairy person is. It gets prickly sometimes if it's cut very closely since the hairs are coarse. Imagine pube coarse hairs cut short.

I don't mind a hairy body, well unless u look like Bigfoot.

[Asker]

I don't know what would be a Bigfoot to you!
Any example?

[Catsforlife123]

The chest is just a little too hairy but it isn't terribly bad
