I don't know how it is where you guys live, but where I'm at, a girl will usually laugh at a guy with silky smooth legs. They say it just feels wrong.


Most of the younger women I know like the look and feel. The older ones seem to not like it as much.

My wife and I like it, although the shaving is a lot of work to keep up with.

Well, personally...I wouldn't know. I've never gone up to a guy and rubbed his legs. Haven't really thought about it much

However...I'm very used to seeing guys in gi pants, or some other form of long pants, to where I can't see any leg hair. So when summertime comes around and I see my MA friends in shorts...it's very strange. I'm not used to it. I just think "put some pants on!" I'm not really expecting smooth legs, but when I see the pasty white with sparse patches of dark curly hair...it's kinda gross.

After 22 years of blocking with my shins I have no hair on them, but on the rest of the leg I have thick, black, curly hair (blame my Arab ancestors ). this always provokes interesting comments from new girlfirends.

Do you see women walking around scratching at their legs all the time? It doesn't itch a bit

I've heard of bikers and joggers shaving their legs to decrease air resistance. Believe it or not the tiny bit of air resistance due to hair does make a difference in speed.

"i think , it's gay..."

I don't see how any of this is in anyway homosexual... and to the crack that implied homosexuals were less masculine, although i'm not gay myself, i have many a gay friend who would resent this. point being, to use someones sexuality as an insult. it may just be 'cuz i'm a liberal, but it dosen't seem ethical or moral to me.

Exactly. Perfectly summed up.
