Hairless legs

[Mr. SR500]

As a guy I sort of understand the bonding part of shaving, lots of freshly shaven legs on the group rides the last week or so, but I hate to shave my face. Trying to keep my legs shaved would be a royal PITA. I finally shaved the beard, but left a goatee. Kim hates it, so I'll clean shave the face in a week or so, but I doubt I'll ever convert to shaving my legs. Then let the beard grow again in the fall.

I guess growing up with hairy rock stars and Magnum PI, hair was in, but now I seem to be in the minority. What is up with the guys that shave their chest and well everything. I have a riding buddy that use to be a body builder, that guy doesn't have a hair on his body. He shaves the top of his head to his ankles. Great guys, but not for me.

Remember those old Bowflex commercials, where the machine not only makes you all buff and muscular, but shaves your chest too?

Someday, I'll just be able to click my heels three times, say "home sweet home" and for the rest of my life I'll have no hair anywhere on my body except my head and my eyebrows...

One can dream I suppose...

[KnottedYet]

I have to trim my eyebrows...
and my nose hair
and shave my TOES.

sigh. I'm a hobbit.

I'm with you, Knotted, such a hobbit.

Hmm, I haven't noticed that wool is any more windproof than any other fiber. It's all in how each fiber is knitted and the resulting material.

I've got wool jerseys that I can freeze my tookas off in just as easily as the equivalent weight and density Lycra.

How do you feel about mushrooms?
Are you never more than two hours away from your next meal?
Do you have a serious collection of things that don't really serve any purpose but you don't want to throw away (mathoms)?

If you answered yes to all of those, you are probably a hobbit, albeit a very tall hobbit.

[sgtiger]

Mushrooms are da bomb. And I can answer "Yes" to all of the others and I have hairy toes(at least the big ones and the ones next to those) too. At least you're not alone.

It's true. My grandmother got less and less hairy as she got older. NO hair on the legs, nothing really under her pits either.
And unlike men, at the age of 90, she had no hairs growing out of her ears or the top of her nose either

Maybe it's a wax/wane thing? (didn't originally intend the pun, but okay, wax, get it?)

b/c at my age, if I miss a week of tweezing, there's a solid bank of hair from each side of my eyebrows, all the way across the bridge of my nose and most of the way down to my eyelashes, and so much hair growing out of my nose it's hard to be grateful I don't have a mustache.
