I find it hilarious how guys are somehow threatend by leg hair

cinnamonketchup · 2021-02-02T23:22:36+00:00

Both of them have leg hair in the picture. Why are men only offended by hers? Hypocrisy much? 🤔

I like how leg hair, which is 100% natural is scary, but dookie stains are fine. The bar... it’s below sea level at this point.

I know I’m going to go off on a tangent here, so I’m just putting this warning here upfront.

It it CRAZY to me how heterosexual women in so many ways actually have it worse than lesbians. I am of course saying this from a place of absolute privilege, because I’m lucky to live in a place where homophobia isn’t so prevalent (though the lesbian dating pool is a tiny, close-knit nightmare).

I cannot imagine dating somebody who is creeped out my leg hair, periods, whatever. As terrible as lesbian dating is, the one thing you can count on is that other women absolutely do not care - even though by definition they’re also only attracted to women. Ever. I’ve never met a woman who’s cared about my lazy leg shaving schedule or been creeped out by my periods.

It feels like another world. my heart goes out to you girls, because maybe 1/100 of the straight/bi men i know treat women properly.

Men honestly act like another species. Living with so few men in my life exposes most of those I’ve met as just embarrassing.

Found this post just so I could see what kind of ridiculous comments were left and it’s hilarious how threatened men are by a cartoon man having more empathy than they do.

Any man that is grossed out by body hair, periods, child birth or any of life’s natural occurrences is a low value, immature piece of shit!

This just reminded me of my first pyjamas party at my friend's place. There were only three other girls, we were all in our early twenties and it was too warm to wear actual pyjamas so we were all in shorts.

I was embarrassed because I hadn't shaved in a few weeks, my leg hair would be noticeable. I remember actually apologising, and expected some comments like "you're letting yourself go" or "you're being lazy".

Nah, girls couldn't care less. One of them actually laughed and said "don't be silly, do you want to see my armpit hair?" and I just instantly relaxed.

It's weird that men find body hair repulsive, but only in a woman's body, even though they're supposed to find it attractive as it's part of our species.

They're so whiny. They get triggered by the natural body, pathetic.

Villanelloh · 2021-02-03T09:05:09+00:00

I saw men on reddit using the YoU wAnT uS tO lOoK pRePuBeScEnT argument when women said they prefer clean shaven men. Like seriously, you're using our argument against having to remove all body hair below our eyelashes for your pleasure so you can excuse yourself from grooming your face?

Then_Advertising_773 · 2021-02-02T23:18:12+00:00

Woah women have body hair?

ninetiesbaby16 · 2021-02-03T06:44:45+00:00

I’ve gone on dates in short dresses after having not shaved for months...men usually don’t actually care. They still find me attractive.

The way men act online about leg hair made me so anxious about going out in public in skirts/shorts without shaving, I honestly thought I’d get accosted by the leg beard inquisition and verbally degraded in public...so far that hasn’t happened lol

Emergency-Feed8216 · 2021-02-03T16:17:04+00:00

Never mind leg hair, I was ignorant of the whole crotch-waxing-goes-mainstream thing until it became officially passé. I had kids in the interim so I wasn't even aware until I saw that bit in Wolf of Wall Street about "no hair below the eyebrows."

When I modeled in NY to pay for school, the H'wood wax totally-bare thing was the mark of escorts, extinct Snap-on Tool models and strippers. I know it's hypocritical but fashion models often nervously differentiated themselves from sex workers to the degree that men like to lump all together (because selling with sex is selling with sex) and this can be dangerous. And that line in the sand between high-brow and low was partly drawn with pubic hair.

Now the full crotch wax has become a provincial norm along with infected follicles, invasive skin candidiasis and higher risk of STDs.

Delicious_Comfort000 · 2021-02-02T23:25:25+00:00

So true lmao. Although, to be fair, if a male shows way too much adoration for your natural legs, run. There’s pornsick body hair fetishists, too.

Sapphonie · 2021-02-03T18:15:44+00:00

Never shaved. Never will.

weekend111 · 2021-02-03T09:44:39+00:00

I usually wax my legs and I’ve taken to like them hairless. Probably a patriarchal standard, but unfortunately, we don’t unlearn all our patriarchal conditioning in a day. However, if my legs get hairy and my boyfriend complains he’s gonna get his waxed next to mine the next day.

Equal-Ear2312 · 2021-02-04T11:20:38+00:00

I think some men feel threatened by leg hair because they are so uncomfortable with their own masculinity that seeing hair on a woman automatically makes them doubt themselves.

Title	Yep.
