I've been shaving all my body for years...had nothing to do with women...had everything with wanting to feel 'young'...or metropolitian...

I noticed where I lived, many of the males had rough alligator skin......and I would think to myself

'How is having rough alligator skin benifiscal to me??'

Then I realized it wasn't...cause once your skin goes, and you take on that 'old spent look'...you can never regain your 'youthful appeal'...so since then, I started taking care of myself best a male can...

In other words I became metrosexual...for my own, non mainstream reasons...

I never do anything that's mainstream, infact...I often do things, then the mainstream catches on later...

Like Prince...he was like Metrosexual before the term caught on with middle class suburban males...

When I lay down at night as a single male...and have to feel my own body and skin, I'd rather feel something soft, than rough hairy corse, alligator hide...

It is possible that men will start shaving all over.

The only place I shave besides my face is my ears. I use to shave the pubes but that got old. If my wife wants to stop shaving (which will eventually happen because of her spinal problems) I would not be bothered. Weird how in the 70s a man with a hairy chest was sexy and now some think the complete opposite.

You wouldn't wonder why women started shaving armpits if you had lived in the hot and humid areas. Especially back in the days before hot water heaters. After a day or two with hairy arm pits....a woman stunk! It was harder to wash the sweat off with hair. Well, men smelled bad too, especially if they did physical labor, but we sort of expected them to, but not ladies!!!

Give thanks for hot water heaters and deoderants!!

As a man if I see a guy who shaves his whole body then I think either gay or metrosexual. Of course, I have virtually no body hair other then a bit on my arms & legs along with the usual "happy trail" and the patch down there but I do trim my pubic hair just to keep things nice and neat. A man without body hair is kind of like seeing a hairless dog, sure, it stands out but not in a good way.

Heck no!

When I cringe at shaving in the morning, and the resulting irritation (especially on my neck), I thank heaven that it is not incumbent on me to shave elsewhere. It would also be not practical. I am pretty hairy (not the hairiest I've seen, but let's just say one of my ex's saw me without a shirt on and she was like 'oh man, I can't believe I enjoyed THAT' and my sister in law said "AH! KUMA! (Translated from Japanese, AH! A BEAR!)").

I will be the first to admit that a clean muscular chest is the most appealing aesthetically, but it is unattainable within reasonable cost and time limitations that we all have these days.
