Should I shave my upper body?

[skydiver30960 0]

If there's anything I've learned from the threads I've seen posted here, it's to have no shame. SO...

In the spirit of the earlier "do you shave the nether-regions" from a couple days ago (shave the boys and trim everything else, btw), should I shave my upper body (chest, back and arms)?

Info that might be necessary: I'm sorta built, not total hardbody, but not a couch potato either. I'm not grizzly bear hairy, just sorta hairy on the arms, back, and chest. The thing is it's kinda long and whispy. When the wind blows strong my arms look like a field of grain swaying in the breeze. It bugs the hell out of me and I want to shave it. The girlfriend sez not to because it looks stupid when it's growing back in. Part of me sez to do what the girlfriend wants because her opinion matters most in these matters (NOT all matters, though) but this smells like a "lover's lie" if you know what i mean.

So what do I do?

If anything, get waxed. It will be bothersome when it all grows in at once from shaving. Waxing isn't so bad (well, i've done my legs), and it doesn't all grow back so quick.

I would listen to the girlfriend, but if it realllly bothers you, go ahead and shave it. If you don't like it, hell, it'll grow back! :p I would personally rather that my boyfriend didn't shave. But, he's not covered from head to toe with long black hair, either

Ya and then you should put oil all over, pierce your ears, bleach and spike your hair, wear one of those shell necklaces, get a pair of those small lensed sunglasses and whatever else you need to do to look like one of those mtv spring break choads.

I Naired my upper body on a dare last week. Do that, shaving will leave ingrown hairs.

Test a small area first. I tried that on my legs and got burned. :(

Guys that shave are gay
Men are supposed to have hair, its sexy. Besides, shaving is a hassle and you will get ingrown hairs with coarse hair like chest hair.

Elvisio you sick fuck!! Good to see ya on the forums!!

My opinion, I don't think so. Keep the netherdudes tidy, but as far as upper body, don't do it unless you become a totally ripped body builder, and if you keep drinking like normal, it ain't gonna happen bro.

Personally I think a smooth chest and arms on a man is not as sexy as some hair; HOWEVER, in your case you say it's long and wispy... so... in this case I suggest you could have the back hair lasered off, like on Extreme Makeover.

Clean it up.

If she makes a raving deal about how great it is, keep it up.

If she doesn't let it grow back.

It's a tremendous thing for a woman to have her voice heard, but the grass is not always greener.

don't shave.

if you want to remove the hair, wax.

I don't know how well you'd tolerate Nair, but it usually doesnt' work well on coarse hair like chest hair. Gave me some nasty burns when I tried it on my legs.
