Oh, really? Has anyone ever seen a portrait from the revolutionary period when bare shoulders were 'in' that showed arm pit hair?

If they don't shave, that's what they look like to me....
Besides She shaves..
- "Miss Afghanistan" picture... check.
- Andrew Dice Clay quote... check.
- Pictures of ZZ Top... check.
- "Chewbacca in a headlock/leglock" joke... check.
Heck, there must be *something* else to contribute to this thread. Ah, of course. The old "Why sex is like golf" joke, which reads (in part):
****
- Play must be approved by the owner of the course.
- The owner is responsible for all maintenance and must keep the fairway neatly trimmed.
- The object of the game is to take as many strokes as necessary until the course owner is satisfied that the play is complete. Failure to do so may result in being denied permission to play the course again.
- It is considered bad form to begin playing the hole immediately upon arrival at the course. The experienced player will normally take time to admire the entire course, with special attention to well formed bunkers.
- Players are encouraged to have proper rain gear along, just in case.
- Players should not assume a course is in shape for play at all times. Some players may be embarrassed if they find the course to be temporarily under repair. Players are advised to be extremely tactful in this situation. More advanced players will find alternate means of play when this is the case.
- Players are advised to obtain the course owner's permission before attempting to play the back nine.
- Slow play is encouraged; however, players should be prepared to proceed at a quicker pace, at least temporarily, at the course owner's request.

Women shave their body hair simply for the reason that it is fashionable. It's not due to "male oppression" and more than oppressive males decide the "hot new look" in the fashion magazines.
These things are cultural. Like different styles of clothing, make up, hair style, tatoos, body piercing and all the rest. People learn to find certain things attractive. It takes generations to change these styles, but inevitably they do change. And not through political moves, or pseudo-journalistic harrangues.
Silliness - the author has defined shaving as "taking away" when the bulk of women clearly consider it "enhancing." Another leftie trying to define her way through a political argument, and not very deftly at that.
Personal freedom is sometimes difficult for leftwing political theorists. Rather than insisting that all women change their behavior based on her political predilictions, I'd suggest our author take a "pro-choice" approach and let them do what they want. They will anyway.
Ballet dancers can be pretty gamey all right. "Football on the Waterfront" is one way I have heard the dressingroom scent described.
The darker your hair, or skin, the more apocrine glands you have and the stronger your natural scent

This message brought to you by TODAYS communist party!
I quit shaving my arm pits for my husband about a year or so ago and actually think I prefer it. I shave them if I am going to risk a chance of them being viewable in public. I also have very light (in color and amount) body hair. Previously, I had shaved my arm pits every day since I was in my preteens. Now, I have found that I sweat less and have less paranoia about "pit" odor when I don't shave them.
Here is why: When you have freshly shaved pits, it is hard for deoderant/anti-perspirant to stay on the skin. I would end up re-applying my deoderant multiple times a day. Now, I put it on once in the morning and it's good the rest of the day. I don't know if this works with people who are really hairy, but most people I know who skip shaving aren't very hairy naturally.
I'm not a feminist. I'm not a granola. I still shave often and never show hairy legs (or even arms for that matter). I would, however, recommend giving pit shaving a break for a couple of weeks. The experience may surprise you.
I can't even find anything funny in it and that is unusual. Then again...

Don't knock it til you've tried it.
Hey, once with an x-gf we did a good for the goose/good for the gander swap.
