They do not want to be viewed or labeled as the organic, tree-hugging, penis-loathing, militant, lesbian feminist.

100 bucks says this gal is an organic, tree-hugging, penis-loathing, militant, lesbian feminist.

If she is a feminist, this article would be one powerful reason why the movement has flamed out in triviality and irrelevance over the years.

Eeeww!

You're just conditioned to respond to shaved legs. If you were born in China a hundred years ago, smashed-up, disproportionate feet would probably be your bag.

You can overcome some of the crap society pumps into your head, ya know.

Interesting comments so far...... For me, it's more important for a female to be self confident and fun.

Made-for-TV looks and a strict schedule of "beauty" adjustments are of secondary concern.

But then again, I like all the girls....

It's a pity, that history is no longer taught in schools of any sort, and that people, who write such egregious codswallop, don't bother to do any investigation/ research, prior to publishing this kind of nonsense.

Okay, a brief history 101, of depiliation. In ancient Egypt, both sexes shaved / used sugar, honey, and tree sap / tar, to ALL body hair.Tweezers were also used, for smaller areas. The ancient Romans were also big on hair removal ; read Ovid's " THE ART OF LOVE " , for explicit details.Part of the reason, that " barbarians " were called BARBARIANS , was because they were all so hairy !

In the 19th century, in Hungary, women used a method of killing hair follicles, on the arms, legs of girl babies, and I guess, at adolescence, underarm hair, by passing the offensive area over the heat of a wood stove. This was handed down , from mother to daughter, for generations, and was still in use, even in the USA( by immigrants, ), well into the 20th century.

The author, of this article, claims. that this is a 20th century conceit, is not only FALSE, it is stupid, beyond belief !

Never really shave maybe once a year for going out dresses up. I have found the hair as I get older is fading away on it's own. Practically nothing in my armpits. I might add that I am a sraight very hetro woman who has chosen to stay single through life so no man around to complain.

[INSENSITIVE GUY]

ASIDE FROM THE HAIR MATCHING THE SMELL OF HER ARMPITS AND CROTCH,THIS IS OF EURO-PEON INFLUENCE!

[Redleg Duke]

Yep, better grow it long and thick...it will keep you warm this winter when you are all alone.

[amused]

You should have put in parentheses "Get to know your fellow freepers up close and personal" ;-)

Sorry, but I've been indocrinated all my life to appreciate the lack of body hair on a woman.

Guess I need desensitivity training.

[SevenDaysInMay]

Thatch should be removed at least in the spring, in America and Down Under.

At this rate, blondes will have more, a lot more fun.

Hell hath no fury like a militant lesbian shorn.
