OK, now that the question of the sexiness of tan lines is settled,
what do you netters think of armpit hair?
It should be braided or put into pony tails. It could also be done up in a
multi-colored half shaved fashion like Lauper's head. Feathers inter-twined
into the pit might be nice also. Do you prefer blondes or brunetts? Hot,
muggy, summer days is really the time to evaluate the pit's positive attributes.
This is one of those subjects that requires 'close' examination before making
a snap judgement. Phewwwww......!
But seriously, I don't ever think of armpit hair until the lady in front of
me in a check-out line wearing a halter top scratches her head. Then I try
NOT to think about it. Boy, it's a jungle out there. 8-)

Seems like a lotta work keepin' it cropped. Probably serves some useful

A woman's body should be smooth and clean. If she has hair, other than
pubic, she should remove it.

Oh wow - Madonna on the net. Jeez. I can't believe it. Really, its

would never get to date you Madonna, but now, hey, its just keyboard

Armpits - I guess they come with the territory, huh?
This disgusted netter has just been put off his breakfast. And here's
the usual meta-comment: what's this doing on net.singles?
I don't know why I waste time on this net stuff. I really don't. I've
got a pile of unread journals on my desk. My brother got me a
subscription to Weekly World News just SIX WEEKS AGO and I'm already
behind on that. The effort involved in finding, among all the gibberish,
bickering and illiteracy, a new or interesting thought, or a shred of
wit, is simply not worth it. I've had it. I'll check back in a few weeks
to see if the situation has improved.

I think armpit hair is great, if an interesting lady comes with it,
whether the hair is shaved off or not.

I had a relationship going last year with a woman who
didn't shave - anywhere. At first it did kind of freak
me out, I'll admit, but I pretty quickly grew used to
this state of affairs, to the point where it came to
seem at first just ordinary, then actually kinda sexy.
After that affair ended, though, I rediscovered the
appeal of the baby-smooth skin thing, too...

Yep! Ah shure doo lahk my women BALD! No haeya ANYWAEYA! S'un-natur'll.
Actually, I can't believe that someone actually posted that kind of
definitive statement... "A womans body SHOULD BE SUCH AND SUCH..." I
would hope she was joking, as she sounds like something out of a 19th
century manual on manners.
For myself, I prefer natural, un-manicured bodies... Of course, the hair
on your head can get in your face and make things miserable, as it
has with me, so I keep mine cut. But as for legs, arms, armpits, pubic
hair, and eyebrows/lashes, I like them to be unmodified. I DO trim my
beard, 'cause it gets in my mouth otherwise.
Tell me, poster of above article, why do you think women should be
unnaturally hairless, and men shouldn't? Or do you mean men should shave
off all their hair too? If a woman's body with hair on it disgusts you,
why so? Did you ever stop to think about it?

Well, I have often been an admirer of a smooth pate on a woman, but I have
never had the courage to adopt the style myself....
I lived in Germany for a year, and some of the women there do not
shave their legs nor their armpits. Well I had a girlfriend that
was one of those.
I didn't mind, it gave me something to hold on to

I'm looking for a bald-headed woman,
One who'll make me feel so good,
And if I find that bald-headed woman,
I know my life will be as it should.
(with apologies to Cat Stevens)
Men are also asked to have armpits and to bring them to social occasions as
they look dashing in a vest (we don't need your vest sliding up!) and
can also be great fun at tickle fights after the champagne has been served.
So remember folks, bring those armpits even if you think you may not need them!

What !?? Shaving !!???? Bleagh. That's sensitive skin!! Shave your pubes first
before you tell me to shave anything and see how chafing feels (BLEAGH! ICK!)
Personally, I think women look better if they aren't bald. :-)

WHAT?????
Did you really say that a woman should remove all hair other than pubic???
Does that mean she should shave her head bald????
I don't care if a woman removes her pubic hair or not. I would prefer that
she remove the hair under her arms. (Yes I have been to beaches in Europe
and elsewhere around the world, and no I don't find that hair attractive).
However, I do like women to have hair on their head. |-)

Be serious! The very mention of 'armpit hair' disgusts you that much? Don't
you have any armpit hair?

Is someone forcing you to read the netnews? Is someone forcing you to read
net.singles? What is your problem? Go read a "serious" or "technical"
newsgroup if you can't take a joke!
I guess from now on we should all ROT13 any postings that mention "armpit hair".
:-)
Some people... (?!)
Men should shave (at least part of) their faces on a regular basis.
The underarms need not be shaven unless mold or mildew has set in.
The pubic hair, if considerable, should be trimmed but not shaven.
Hair on the top of the shoulders should be removed and transplanted
to the top of the head where it belongs."

Holy Cow. I can't believe some of the discussions that get started in
this group. But as long as you, ah, mentioned it ...
Who SEZ a woman's body should be smooth and clean? Who SEZ a man
should let his armpit hair grow down until he can tie it to his
shoelaces? We're talking cultural and personal preferences here,
folks. Know what's REALLY disgusting when it comes to hair? Those
guys who have dense clumps of hair growing from their noses and
ears who refuse to trim them ... (yuck, yuck, spit! this is getting
disgusting! :-)
There are certain males who find that armpit hair on a female is a
turn-on. I suspect you find more of them in Europe than in the USA. Is
one preference 'better' than the other? Of course not. No cultural
preference 'should' be the way it is; it just is. An American female
who chooses to cornrow her leg hair and shave her head bald will, I'll
wager, find SOME American males who find it a turn-on. And an American
male who chooses to dye his hair flourescent green and put a crowbar
through his nose will find SOME American females who think he's the
bee's knees. Chacun a son gout. There's somebody for everyone, Joe.

That's (pubic hair) probably a matter of personal taste (-: (-:
But seriously folks, ummm, both my Lady and I have admired nudes
in which the woman was clean shaven, so to speak. She decided to
give it a try and shaved her pubic area with a safety razor she
uses for her legs. Wrong. It gave her one hell of a rash, and the
area was sore for several days. When it began to grow back, and
became itchy, she tried a depilatory. Wrong again! She again got
a rash, and it didn't remove all the hair anyway. Horniness prevailed,
and she let it grow back. Question: Is there a secret to going bare
without irritation to the pubic area? If there is, would you e-mail
this nugget of info to me? I won't blush if you don't. (-: Thanks.

Shaving has never produced much of a problem, if done with VERY sharp razors,
lots of shaving cream, and a lot of patience (and baby oil afterwords).
The third day after the shaving, when the stubble starts really itching, makes
you wish you had never done it. Three weeks of itching and irritation isn't
worth it in my opinion.
A compromise is a well done trim. Be careful not too cut too short, or you
will have the itching to deal with. Most long pubic hair is pliable; most
short pubic hair resembles steel wool in its ability to penetrate skin and
clothing.
