I find my deodorant is more effective with less armpit hair.

I find my deodorant is more effective with less armpit pair.

Well, bacteria clings to the hair so that would make sense.

 

[Buttons]

Also differs per country, in Germany practically everyone does it. o.o

Yeah, that's sort of basic human biology. It almost seems like people don't realize this.

It makes one wonder if the "manly men hairy manly" arguers passed grade 10 biology.

Why the fuck are you /shrugging with your stinky ass pits? What's armpit pair?

I found that pretty much every German olympian I saw doing gymnastics had shaved armpits. I had to resist the urge to root for them just because of this.

I do it. I don't see why I wouldn't, honestly. It makes me less sweaty, less smelly, and more comfortable. And I never experience any prickliness or itching like some people are attesting. Means I can raise my arms and not give people a disgusting sight. I'm bettering humanity, here.

I dunno how that 'p' got there.

[big_z]

Dat Testosterone!

 

[Salsa]

why dont you cut off your balls while you're at it

 

[SapientWolf]

But it's itchy! And it smells bad!

The reason it's there is to itch and smell bad.

 

[spindashing]

Okay, I just had the weirdest goddamn urge. I wanted so badly to post "Uhh... Guys are supposed to have hair on their armpits? Really? Like, how much?" Wait for someone to respond with a pic. Then post all freaked out, "Holy shit! I'm googling it now. That's a lot of hair! They've got hair all over! What the hell, I am hairless?!" Then wait a while and post "Guys, I'm scared. I have no hair anywhere. My skin feels all rubbery and wet, what do I do? What's happening?!"

And then just post the following:
"ARF! ARK ARF! ARF ARRRF!

"

Then come back later with a seal avatar and post:
"ARF ARF ARF! HSSS! ARF!

"

Jesus Christ. I get weird when I get tired. I'm going to bed.

You should have done it. Hahaha.

[Boogie9IGN]

I shave mine once a week, smells much better that way

 

[Papercuts]

I don't, but I also have a hairy chest and don't mess with it either. Not really sure if I should or not.

 

[Rayis]

hell no, hairy men are hot

 

[wenis]

I trim from time to time. Feels good man.

 

[davepoobond]

i trim when it gets very itchy

 

[squidyj]

He is doing it in the wrong order. He probably started on his pubes and is now rubbing pube sweat/hair all over the rest of his body and soon to be face. Gross.

Soooo... not a fan of oral sex then, huh?

 

[underkanter]

Shaving makes sweat more noticeable, so if you sweat a lot, don't shave. I am a living conclusion to this. If you do shave your pits and you sweat a lot, stop, and please... don't shave your ass. I'm warning you.

Just so you know, when you WEREN'T shaving, all that same sweat was being trapped by the hair. It wasn't going away.

 

[noah111]

Trim. Don't shave.

Trim, don't shave.

Trim it.

Trim.

These guys know what they're talking about. Never fully shave, you'll regret it.

 

[reKon]

eyebrows? Maybe that's a concern if you're still 12.

The real culprit is eye lashes. Any self-respecting man who doesn't shave his eye lashes off might as well give up on the dream of ever sleeping with a woman.

oh you

 

[Jburton]

Very weird for man to shave his armpit air, or legs etc.

All these hairless men ...... You are supposed to have body hair, your a man.

 

[Mecha_Infantry]

Yes. As well as my whole genitles area

 

[underkanter]

Exactly. It was flowing outward a lot more than it would, IE more noticeable

 

[Jzero]

I trim mine. Shaving them feels weird as hell.

 

[encephalon]

It's easier to shave once a month than to attempt to trim. If you can do it without killing your skin, more power to you.

 

[Hitokage]

Sweat make bare skin sticky so if you don't have issues keeping dry then do what you want, otherwise you want to keep at least a little. It may also depend on how sensitive your skin is. Even if your face is usually fine elsewhere might end up as scorched earth for a good while.

If men can regularly shave off the most noticable male-specific hair, then why not hair that's more personal.

 

[Johnny Cage In The Shower]

I trim mine. Shaving them feels weird as hell.

This, also it's easier to apply deodorant on short pit hair?

 

[Lucian Cat]

hell no, hairy men are hot

YES YES YES. Love me some manly chest hair

 

[Man]

I trim my armpits. 3/8 inch (9mm).
Shave my back.
Trim / shave combo downstairs.

 

[Vyrance]

I find trimming to be the best.

 

[vidcons]

I love having sex where our skin is directly in contact and there is no odd hair movement that is like a grind against the nerves. Oh man, it's going without a condom over the entire body.

But I guess if you feel that hair makes you manly then whatever, enjoy the grease sex.

 

[DR2K]

Yeah I dislike deadorant, so I shave the pits clean. No profuse smell.

 

[waypoetic]

Been doing it for a looong time. Freeesssssh.

 

[Stat Flow]

Trim.

 

[Canis lupus]

Trim?

 

[Davey Cakes]

I don't do it. I find it to be entirely unnecessary.

Applying deodorant isn't a big deal to me. I use a type that doesn't have too strong of a smell, either. So I remain fresh for up to two days without re-applying and don't smell of deodorant all the time; some people apply to much and use something with too strong a scent so that it leaks through clothing and whatnot.

 

[strobogo]

So you shave in lieu of using deodorant?

So I remain fresh for up to two days without re-applying and don't smell of deodorant all the time

What is this? You don't apply deodorant every day?

 

[-MB-]

If i woudl even try it, it would most assuredly be a very bloody mess. :/

 

[jaxword]

Perhaps you should see a doctor for hyperhidrosis?

Note that I used to suffer from this too until I lost some weight, so I know the feeling of feeling sweaty all the time.

You have strange issues with hair.

Grease sex? ...... just wash before you fuck and after if sweat is such an issue.

 

[AdventureRacing]

Having arm pit hair leads to sweaty, greasy sex? This is news to me.

 

[Ogni-XR21]

Trim!!

I actually tried a Rx antiperspirant without hair and got better results with hair. However, I am just sweaty person (not overweight either). On a side note, it all started after I stopped smoking but it hasn't gone away over the years, can't quite figure that out. The plus side for me, my sweat doesn't cause much of a stench, where if it did, I think shaving would be the lesser of two evils.

Volume = hair good
stench = hair bad

 

[L00P]

I trim it. It looks ugly if I don't because it's not very thick and can get very long

Then there's my genital area. It's like a freaking jungle when I didn't trim it. Damn, why don't my pubes stay short like my eyebrows?!

 

[Wazzim]

I have a bit of armpit hair but not excessive so I let it do it's thing.
