Opinions on back hair

Post Reply New Topic

So I sort of was having a debate with a (female) friend of mine, she says that waxing backs is absolutely necessary in the modern dating world. Now she is kind of OCD about how much she hates leg hair, chest hair etc on men, so I am taking this with a pinch of salt or projection but... she said based on what she's seen it would mean 90% to 95% of women would not go out with you, and compared it to the same decision she had between keeping her leg hair and thus never having a boyfriend.

It's kind of odd to me though. Whilst I could understand doing this for a partner who didn't like back hair, spending lots of money on expensive waxing - when the likelihood is no one will ever notice, except maybe people at a swimming pool who won't care less anyway. Is it really worth paying the large expense and going through a lot of pain every month to remove the back hair, or is it just something you have to do to prevent yourself from being permanently single?

Um...I hate back hair, and I don't like hairy men. However, I'm weird about that stuff, so my opinion may be in the minority.

I don't like body hair on anyone.

I'm not real big on men waxing - that's more of a woman's thing. However, not many men have a lot of back hair so I'm inclined to say you might want to think about waxing the hairs on your back just for a while because the more you wax or epilate the hairs don't grow back as much. I prefer men to have some hair. I see no hair as more feminine. Am I weird? Idk. I guess we'll see when other women reply.

I kinda like the scruffy look and the five o'clock shadow.

I just wanted to point out (as someone who regularly waxes her legs) that waxing becomes less and less painful the more times you do it. The hairs grow back in thinner and with weaker roots, so they come out easier with each successive waxing session.

In regards to back hair and how I personally feel about it: I don't like it, but I do like chest hair. Not a big fan of ass hair, either. Women in the west have been dealing with removing body hair for decades now, it's not a big deal. It really is a matter of personal taste, and everyone is going to have a different take on it.

I do want to say that I remember this one time when me and my Ma were outside at some function and this one guy was topless. He had A LOT of back hair and it was the first thing we noticed. My Ma just kept going on and on about how bad it looked. So I have to say that people do notice, but they just won't say anything to you about it.

I think it's all about personal preference... I have eyebrows the hair on my head... That's it.. lol

But I'm not the least bit picky about what other people choose to do with their own bodies. I'm more interested in what's inside that person. I think if someone is really interested in you, body hair wouldn't make that much of a difference. I could be wrong.
