Should women who decide to grow body hair be socially accepted?
This shouldn't even be a question! It would be like saying should jews or italians or straight haired people or curly haired people or black people or christians be socially acceptable. It's basically rascist/prejudiced and how any human could even consider this option is crazy. First of all, GOD/THE CREATION/CREATOR/NATURE gave women body hair, so the idea that one would decide not shaving isn't acceptable is relatively blasphemous, IMHO> I mean how long have we even had the ability to shave? Ok I looked it up; it's been around a long time- IMHO, it's a fashion sense and/or a necessity built around ones climate, but to tell anyone that it's required is ludicrus. And why are woman only put into this narrow realm of being wrong for not doing this thing of shaving. Why don't all men shave their nads , their beard, legs, etc. F off anyone who thinks this acceptable. And third, FYI: body hair for all humans, by Nature, is more healthy for people, according to a lot of science out there. Specifically, for women in the vagina area. Apparently, there's only one real reason to have it shaved and that's pubic lice; but that's not something very common in the 21'st century. Living in a hot area would be another benefit I could see, but nature knows best, IMHO> I sure wish this stigma would go away. It's a persons choice and if know-ones realized it yet, women are people too and not for us males to just have and to hold as a trophy and control to our liking. Get with equality, people! Personal hygiene is just that, personal. Each to their own! If you can't deal with your gal or guy with hair, then I guess, don't date em. Simple as that. But discrimating women or any human for something they do about their own bodies is just a horrible thing, IMHO. Please stop! And finally, just as one woud probably assume, I think a hairy puss is way more beautiful and way less creepy than a bald one. Although, never turned down a shaved puss, but prefer hair for certain. Old school hippie here. LOL. Sorry/not sorry, but these prejudices have to go. Especially these mysogynistic prejudices. I mean half the world or more is women. Get used to it. Don't you people love thy mother? I bet most of your mothers aren't shaving anymore, if they ever did. Older women tend to let that stupid chore go. OK, rant over.
Should be yes but unlikely to happen. Too many people get too comfortable not minding their own business and giving their unwanted opinion. Liking hairless for your own sexual preference is fine but I’ve come across pics and vid’s of women who clearly don’t shave and their comments are always filled with both genders telling them to shave and that it’s disgusting which is just a weirdo move cause why care that a stranger you will never meet doesn’t fit your personal preference.
No. It's f*cking gross and women already get away with enough unacceptable behaviors as it is (like calling themselves "queen, diva, goddess, girlboss" and sh*t and not slapped by other women for being a complete c*nt). Women also can get away with being super obese nowadays (not that I have an issue with it), while men cannot, nor can men get away with being under 6'0". If being short or fat is unacceptable for men still, but women can literally be anything, including adulterers ("polyamorous") and bitches, then why can't the same apply to men who are awful and otherwise unworthy of a partner? Like I said, women already get away with too much BS as it is, because of simp culture.
If men want to date Chewbacca, then go ahead. But as far as my opinion goes, no, being nasty and disgusting isn't acceptable in my eyes, and I wouldn't date a woman who was that gross (not that I'm still trying to date, anyway). What's next, should women also be allowed to no longer need to bath or use menstrual products either? Cause that's the exact next logical step from saying it should be acceptable for them to look all dishevelled and homeless just because some women are too lazy and disgusting to do proper grooming that women have done for several decades or centuries already.
People can do whatever they want to do as long as it doesn’t affect anyone else without consent. Now, personal consequences and social acceptance are different things. Society should respect a person’s individual choices without having to accept them into the norm (minority rule). Nor should society be a safety net for wanton negligence or poor behavior. A distinction should be may for individual acceptance within one’s personal circle, and community versus mandatory acceptance at the societal level.
Changes at the societal level occurs when individual interactions create a tipping point in society. Forcibly changing society builds resentment as there are often unintended consequences.
So, you can grow body hair, but don’t expect men to flock to you as the practice isn’t the cultural norm in most of North America.
Why is it that something like "the smell of her hair" is so sexualised, but body hair is frowned upon? Her hair wouldn't smell so nice if it was unkempt, same as most of your problems seem to be with her body hair. Body hair in turn is full of lovely pheromones, it's a win-win!
Yeah I find beards on men disgusting but it should be socially acceptable to have one lol so same with women. Hair is literally there to protect you from bacteria and removing it is more likely to give you more problems longterm than simply letting yourself in your natural female state... Anyone who says that this is masculine and the work of the "eViL feMIniSTZ" is either pornsick or hella brainwashed... or both...
Not sure where you are from, but I'm a Florida, USA girl and it is and always has been socially accepted throughout all of the United States and likely Canada and Mexico alike. I also know that it at least was very normal in many European countries like France, Italy, Germany and the Netherlands.
its their choice, if they dont want to shave then they dont have to be ostracized for it. but those women shouldn't expect other people to say that it is beautiful or that they like it because most people (mostly men) don't like it and shouldn't lie to make those women feel good about themselves. this is the same with men. some men don't like to shave, they don' have to. but they can't expect a woman to say she likes it if every time they kiss she gets poked to death by his facial hair.
Socially acceptable? Bitch please, it doesn't matter if a woman has fucking hair on the pits or anywhere. They're human-like any of us who of course they're gonna have hair. The only people who don't think females should have hair are the people who have been raised on the fact they should be off, men with very selective kinks, and people who think that they're gonna cut off the connection to god or whatever, etc. I am not kidding some people believe that even cutting of armpit hair is a disgrace to god or someone. Wtf.
The men I asked about this said it grosses them out when a woman has hairy armpits, legs, face. I guess if she decides not to shave, she might not get a guy or guy's. I have always shaved, and I would gross myself out if I had hairy armpits and legs. After all, I'm not from the cave days 🐵
I think it should be socially acceptable for women, or people in general, to make whatever decisions they want with their body and have it be socially acceptable. I think on the flip side if some women decide they want to do that, they should be okay if some men don't find that as preferable. I want people not to be judged for things they do or the preferences they have as long as it is legal or doesn't cause harm to anyone else.
If a woman wants to grow her body hair out then I'm not opposed. She can do what she wants it's her body and it's her life but, that does not mean other people have to be accommodating of her.
If she grows out her hair and people are grossed out by it and don't want to get close to her because of it that's on her. Nobody is obliged to change their preferences to accommodate her choices.
They should be frowned upon and expect that only those with an interest in body hair will find them attractive. Instead they blame men for having a preference 😂 These gorilla women are ridiculous
So your question is "Should men be human beings allowed to have preferences?" the answer is Yes.
Women who are hairy are fucking gross. You're not being drafted, you're not working 80 hours a work in a fucking coal mine, so fucking shave you lazy skank.

If you are talking about bikini lines and underarms I know almost every girl shaves it by middle school. I guess that wasn't how it was back in the 80's and 90's? I don't rhink it's about judging I just know that most guys my age expect it to be shaved and also I think older guys that like girls my age expect no body hair. I thi k it's a lot cleaner being shaved too.
I hear you buddy but you can't force your ideas on other people. Maybe some girls can keep there under arms clean. There is some feminist counter cultur wih girls with armpit hair th green or bl
I personally dont want to much of a departure from the masculine and feminine. Like, girls can play video games, girls can play basketball , whatever, but you should alway retain your natural masculinity and feminity and dont break apart from thing you gotta do like keep the family safe or have children and take care of your children
No, it should not be socially accepted. Many women these days are unattractive with their fat, hideous tattoos, and other ugly body piercings. The only hair on a woman's body should be her head, eyebrows, and eyelashes. For those that want to be lazy and have body hair go right ahead, but don't be surprised when men reject you and you are all alone with your Netflix's subscription and a tub of Ben and Jerry's ice cream.
Very odd question. I never realized women having body hair could be an issue... No one has to intervene or judge women for having body hair or not. It's a private matter. Personally, I prefer by far natural hairy ladies. So much more erotic !
Maybe it's because I was born in the 80's but body hair on women has never bothered me. I usually don't care if she shaves or not. Some women look good shaved, and others could probably use at least some bush.
People don't normally comment on stranger's armpits. Preference on body hair amount is usually reserved for sexual preferences, in which case it's not a social thing, it's a private thing, and society has nothing to do with that.

yes, women should be able to do this, just as men can walk around with hairy hair like a bear.

sorry but if you didn't read the comments why you ask a question?
Yes, armpit hair and leg hair is natural after all in women. That's why it grows and we have to shave it. I'm happy women are fighting against socially acceptances rules of society.
They can do what they want. And I'm sure there are a few guys who are okay with that. But I hope it doesn't become a common practice. So, no, I hope it doesn't become socially acceptable.

My girlfriend didn’t shave during lockdown and let everything grow naturally and I gotta admit, it looked pretty good. I thought her leg hairs would look like mine but all the places she got hairy looked feminine. I had never seen what a girl looked like unshaven until then.
They should be socially accepted, but men who decide not to date women who grow body hair should also be socially accepted. Some men not being attracted to body hair is no different than some women not being attracted to facial hair.
If I'm dating a girl, I wouldn't really care if she shaves or not. I feel like girls don't have to shave if they don't want to, but don't expect the same number of guys to be into you, if you don't shave.
That's the thing. These nasty gross women WANT you to find it "attractive" and acceptable, and will try to shame you if you don't just because they're lazy and disgusting.
I wonder if they will return the favour and desire men who aren't 6 ft+, don't have muscular physiques and aren't earning almost $1m a year, but I think we know the answer to that, lol.
I don't know but I will say this even though I don't normally have a fetish for underarm and something extremely sexy about a woman underarmed freshly shaved I don't know but that's one of the sexiest images I can with
Do what ya want, I'd still be friends with them but they shouldn't expect men to find that attractive or be ok with it. So as long as they're ok with that 😆
I hate the look of the armpit hair. They look horrible and disgustingly on both men and women. If someone wants to grow them then ok, but do not force others to like it.
No they shouldn't be accepted at all... what has gone wrong with girls now Body hair on them look so gross I always keep my girls silky smooth everywhere N not just that i even tell n always ask my sister to keep it shaved
I don't care about strangers' armpits. I think everybody should not care about strangers' armpits.

It's not an issue of social acceptance. It's a matter of attraction. I find it very unattractive. I don't think I could look past it if my partner didn't shave her legs, armpits and snooch.
If she wants hairy pits and he wants shaved legs then get it ! Let people choose what they do to their own body! Also respect their choices just as we would want them to do for us
What does accepted mean to you? Accepted as in I would be expected to date her? Because that wouldn't happen. I do agree that they shouldn't be made fun of though.
Oh god, that reminds me of some movie that I watched a few years ago. I think it was actually a French movie. But this girl had the most monstrous Bush I have ever seen. Front and back. Absolutely disgusting.. 🤮
Yah man! Not a turn on. I live in Asia so Asian guys have this overly obsession with women being innocent! No ass no titis big boobs. At least trim it.
How someone wants to groom their self is entirely up to them. Hair is normal and natural for all adults so I don’t see why people make such an issue of it.
