I don't think I'm using the right word here but... Follow along... What is it with society that makes us think the norm for lets say men, shouldn't be the norm for a woman? Like for example a lot of people would turn away in disgust from a woman who doesn't shave he armpits or legs daily but with guys its normal have hairy underarms... Sorry I'm terrible at trying to get a point across.

I used to hang out with a woman years ago I was in my earlier 20s, she was showing me a sleeve tat she wanted my uncle to fix, i just happened to notice she had underarm hair. I didn't say a word and we continued to talk and hang out. I got to thinking about what happened to her and the question kind of popped into my head about why do certain societies view things with such disdain when its perfectly the norm for others.

what a weird thread.

Being a European, I can say I've never seen a girl that doesn't shave under her arms... I've heard the rumours about the germans and the french, but never seen it in reality.

But it is an interesting idea. Why do women these days have to shave their privates and men don't? I find that very odd...

Well I've been to Europe several times, and although that wasn't one of the questions I asked upon meeting someone "Oh by the way do women in your country shave and where?" We American's having a bad enuf reputation.......I don't recall seeing a hairy under armed women.

As for the lower area, I don't like seeing pubic hair in public, I don't care if it's men or women, but as for shaving all the way.......I don't like that for me.

Probably TMI, I know ;)
