Shaving legs and under arms, do you still do it?

[icontact]

Sideburns!

And I want a soul patch. Maybe.

I was thinking along the same lines.

What bugs me is that my facial hair will probably be darker than the hair on my head.  I'll probably dye my hair. *shrug*

[Adam]

Well if I ever decide I want to bleach my hair again, then my facial hair won't match.

[Janet_Girl]

Sorry for walking into the room.
A lot of men shave their entire bodies.  Kinda like a weigh-lifters look.  Personally I like a man that has a hair chest, something to play with when snuggling.

Shaving is a personal choice.

To be honest, I'd be majorly grossed out if anybody played with hair other than the stuff on my head. I guess I don't really know for sure, but that's what I feel would happen.

I think my facial hair will be the same as on my head hah. Maybe more black than dark brown. Only judging by the hair above my lip, which looks like a 5oclock shadow in my opinion. I dunno. Does it? -prods picture to the left-

[Lachlann]

I definitely want a soul patch.

Looking at my dad, it'll probably be the same colour as the hair on my head. Which is fine by me, my hair has a unique colour that I like.

I used to shave until I realized I was trans and started dressing male.  Then I stopped shaving my legs and pits and started shaving my 5 chin hairs and peach fuzz.

Someday I do hope to have facial hair and to let my hair grow longer.  But not until I'm passing 100% first.

I stopped shaving my armpits and legs long before I started T.  I did it so infrequently that I'm not sure I could say I ever 'stopped'- that would imply starting to begin with.

I now shave my face/neck/head only.

[Elwood]

So many people don't like a man with hair on his body... tsk tsk 

The Naked Update with Chevy Chase would not have been any good if he was completely hairless.

*sigh* What do people have against hair? Do they thick we've trying to reverse evolution so we can be monkeys?

[Nero]

I don't like hairy men either. maybe just a bit on the chest like the Chevy Chase pic. That's attractive.
But not a whole forest or anything.

[Ciarquin]

I've never shaved and don't think I will, except the face of course, but perhaps T might change that. I don't mind body hair, though I probably wouldn't be too keen on being excessively hairy, either. Having a beard doesn't seem very appealing to me, but a moustache I'd like to have at some point in my life at least.

[Elwood]

I agree that there is such a thing as too much. But I don't like men to be like, hairless and feminine looking. Like emo boys (no offense to the emo boys here).

[gravitysrainbow]

None taken, Dan. -grin- I think I'm an emo boy because it's the easiest way for me to pass rightnow. The Fall Out Boy look seems a bit immature to me, but I figure it works since everyone thinks I'm younger anyway. As for shaving, my mom used to make me sometimes. Y'know..."Ohh, if you have armpit hair it holds smell...and while you're at it, shave your legs." She tries to pretend it's not a trans issue, but it obviously is. So...when I can, I don't shave my legs or underarms, and I shave my face to get rid of peach fuzz. When I start T, I'm hoping I'll look good with a bit of five o'clock shadow. And maybe a bit of chest hair. I'm hoping for a bit more everywhere else. Except my back. Nothankyou.

[Elwood]

So, how many guys plan on shaving their ass hair?

You don't look like the "omg I'm so depressed that I wear dresses" kind of emo, though. You look like a dude to me, not a dude that looks like a chick, lol.

And I agree with you on the back thing. I think back hair is pretty bad. So I'd be getting it waxed, probably. At least while I'm still young and pretty.

Same. When my mom gave me sex-ed books as a kid, and it mentioned guys feeling "inadequate" or something during puberty just because they didn't grow any chest hair, I always thought.... "....So? It looks better that way."
I'll take the beard tho fo-sho!

But with what Janet mentioned....I already remember the painful horror of shaving my crotch. Should I grow hair on my chest, I will not be bothered with shaving it off. THE ITCH...THE BURN..... PASS.

When I moved in with my mom, I stopped shaving my legs because I was tired of it, but I kept shaving my underarms 'cause I was still in girl mode. I went back to doing my legs for a while during my last fling, but once that was over, I stopped altogether. Now the only thing I shave is my face (I don't need to, but it makes me feel good). I'll never shave my legs again. Too much trouble. And anyway, I'm Italian; I'm inherently hairy. I can't wait 'til I start T and can grow a beard--I just know it'll come in red like my bio-dad and my brother. I don't really care for the hair on my toes, though. Makes me feel vaguely hobbitish. >_>

I dread having a beard. BUT I will enjoy side burns. It's unfortunate, I think those come last... And some guys never get 'em.

Whaaaaaat?! Growing a beard is one of the things I look FORWARD to!! I'm still messing around trying to figure out which style I might like the best. Hell, maybe I'll wait til I actually grow it then try out different ways of shaving to achieve the different styles until I settle on one I like.

For now I favor....chin only styled goatees or a goatee and mustache combo

Every guy's got his different quirks. I personally don't love chin hair myself. I'm a sideburn, soul patch kind of guy. I MIGHT try a mustache. And I'll probably hate it.

[gravitysrainbow]

Omg I forgot sideburns. I NEED THEM. o.o;; Um. -cough- I mean. Sideburns would be nice. And thanks for the compliment, Dan. I've sortof been needing that lately.

Sideburns are hot. For serious. Not just are they hot, but they are a universal symbol of manliness. 

[iFindMeHere]

pits yes... but for some reason, it's happening less often. I guess I forget. Legs occasionally. but eh... I've got fibromyalgia. *shrugs*
Will I once I take T? I dunno, I'm not the only guy I know that shaves.  I used to live with another spooky guy who shaved EVERYTHING everything neck-down (and OW MAI GAWD THE TUB!!!). But he wasn't gay. Us spooky boys tend to be a bit more effete, unless we're rivets.
