I know there are men who are turned off by leg hair

Huh. Did not know this. Is that common?

There seems to be a bit of a generational divide on body hair. Youngsters seem to trend to the, "Yuck! Grody!" side.

Back in the 70s, male chest hair was considered very sexy, and lots of women stopped shaving their pits.

Nowadays, depilatory is seen as regular grooming with a preference for landing strips and brazilians as well. Plus lots of guys wax their chests.

As a preference/beauty standard, sure. But to the point where "she hadn't shaved her legs in a month!" is a dealbreaker?

That's why I asked who the excuse was for. Because it sounds like one of those lame "I have to wash my hair" excuses for people that can't seem to figure out how to say "not interested."

I think it's supposed to be like wearing underwear you wouldn't want anyone to see, a mental deterrent for the woman. Which would only work if she knew her legs were unshaven but it wasn't obvious to her date. So the short skirt no hose thing is confounding.

It's all highly theoretical to me, though.

Maybe "legs" was a euphemism for pubic hair?

Male chest hair is totally sexy and so are full beards. Goatees will do.

That's crazy. So there's a generation growing up that doesn't know what the natural look actually looks like?!

Yep. One of the Kardashians just did some interview where she talked about how since she's Armenian, she's naturally rather hirsute, so she's all about the laser hair removal. She claims not to have any hair body below her neck which just squicks me out monumentally. Who wants to go through life looking like a prepubescent girl?

And I LIKE hair on men.

Hmm. how about back hair. I get the feeling that a lot of women who like chest hard hate extensive back hair. (Umm say close to bear or gorilla levels.)

No experience with that much hair on someone but yeah that might be a bit much maybe. Don't know, really.

There's a clothing optional hot spring camping place that I like to go to sometimes and after getting over feeling awkward being naked, which is kind of easy when everyone else is, it really is very freeing. People are so much more alike than dissimilar. The bodies come in the male or female version and there are lots of variations on the equipment yet it's all pretty much the same.
