I'm an extremely hairy guy and lately I've taken to trimming most areas (I've got hair pretty much everywhere) with a small pair of scissors. I refuse to start shaving areas - I think the sight of stubble would be more frightening than honest to goodness hair. I am what I am, but while I used to look more like an animal, trimming gives my body a much better look.
My back isn't quite a carpet (knock on wood 'cause it probably will as I get older), more like a few patches, but I trim off what I can reach. I also keep chest and belly trimmed. Nether regions always feel better when kept short, especially in periods when I'm cycling a lot. Keeps the chaffing down.
Wow I feel like I'm participating in an exhibition thread.
Bottom line is I refuse to shave, because I think it would require too much maintenace, like conditioning the skin against ingrown hairs, and I think eventual stubble would be unsightly and itchy. And as I said before, I wouldn't want to live in denial of being one of the proud hairy ones.
