I guess I might as well weigh in as a Freeper woman.

I'm voting for au natural in men.

So your position is

hair migration=okay,

hair elimination=not okay?

If it became "in" to shave every other day, I'd be happy for life.

Men were waxing their legs, backs and chests and were removing hair from their armpits, eyebrows, noses and ears, she said.

Heck, those are the only (mentionable) places I can get the hair to grow anymore. Except for my nose and ears (where it bugs the hell out of me) I'm not gonna remove it unless I can transplant it back to the top of my head. And that looks too painful, I'd rather just wear a hat.

Yes, basically.

A balding head looks masculine. Shaved or waxed legs look gay feminine.

Besides. Imagine being up close and personal with someone whose chest and back hair is growning back in. A five-o'clock shadow is hard enough on a girl's face...

If only more women were like you. I have a feeling you're in the distinct minority amongst women.

"No body hair for six weeks". HA!

Like women, men will believe that crap the first time they buy it.

Depilatories and waxes delay hair regrowth for maybe a few DAYS long than shaving.

hehehe. I just wanted to use the line "hair migration". The imagery conjured is in the least amusing.

I can't comment on which I prefer since I am a hairy man and I am not bald or balding (yet, knock on wood).

But your last point should be a word to the wise if you choose the "hairless" option.

*I* am like her.

Just older, and more set in my ways :D. Down with the androgynous look!

HAHA!

This story makes me think of the scene in Deuce Bigelo, Male Gigilo, where he went in for hair removal in some real delicate areas!

We seem to be getting more like the Romans every day.

I've had my eyebrows waxed while getting a haircut; they seem to be getting too bushy. But I thought a hairy chest was something that women liked.

I'm with you, Hellin. I don't go for androgyny.
