Thread: Back of the neck, under the arms

If you guys don't shave your sweet smelling armpits, than I guess you don't trim your nose hair either

I personally trim my armpits. It's a question of hygiene, not sexuality...

Nenad

well i can understand for some people they may need to trim certain areas, but i think it totallly depends on how much your hair grows, let me explain i basically have a mate who is naturally hairy almost like a monkey so to keep the hair off his chiny chin chin he would have to shave maybe twice a day. I do not think i could close shave my armpits would seem a bit strange there would arguments between me and my G/F over who gets the closet shave

he he he ...

I seem to have touched upon some deep seated insecurities.

Is there a psychologist in the house???

I'm speechless.................... when did guys start doing this? Is it one of those generation X, metrosexual things we hear about sometimes?

Well I was shocked to learn that there are entire lines of mens "make up" and stuff. I was looking for aftershave and noticed there is eye wrinkle make up and stuff like that, WTF? Are we going to have to cut down on the dirty jokes in the bar so we don't get crows feet

I've been seeing ads for makeup for men for years now as Toronto is a very gay-friendly city, but (other than drawing designs on my face for halloween purposes) the closest I've ever come to voluntarily putting on makeup is using a good amount of styptic to partially mask a nick. Involuntary transmission comes from making out with a lady or two and is perfectly acceptable.. A kind of a trophy

LOL that Gillette ad was hysterical.

I do shave the armpits though. I'm a hairy Greek beast and it can get pretty terrible under there. Anyway the current gf likes the lack of body hair, what can I do?
At least I shave (my face) with a straight, thats gotta give me some man points, Right???

And a real man does what his woman orders him to do if he know's what's good for him

It took me reading this about 3 times before I realized that I'd forgotten that "mate" has a slang usage as well.

On the cyclist / swimmer note, I swam competitively for 4 years on private & high school clubs, then moved on to triathlon...wanted to run a half-Ironman this August but a business trip got in the way :P As a swimmer, I shaved everything on my body that's not covered by a racing suit, except my eyebrows. It not only cuts drag, but it makes you feel faster in the water. I can't comment on the cycling part, I don't have a pair of "real" cycling shorts yet, always just wear soccer shorts when I ride. Never had a problem with chafing, so I figured why switch, biker shorts look...umm...well, you know

But with all that, I would think that straight shaving that thick hair would wear the blade down quick...I just use Nair, and the new Nair bikini line product is good for places that normal nair usually burns TMI? Bwahah!

biker shorts are pimp!

well, it might get distracting and even annoying at times with all the oggling, shouting and honking but if one is in shape and does not have a small package he should wear them with pride.
