now, i'm not talking about a gorilla with a mohair sweater, and i'm not talking about a guy with a hair dickie on his chest, but, if a guy has a regular hairy chest, you can still see skin, but he is hairy, and some hair on his back, not on the spine or anything, not the shoulder pad hair tufts, is that such a turn off?

what gets me are the women who think shaving their pubes off is wrong cause it's akin to pedophilia, but they want a guy with the hairless chest of a 10 year old boy.

do ANY women find hairy chests attractive?

heh, most women i know, aside from the 16 year olds who don't know what a real man looks like, don't have an issue with hair.

"most"

there are a few that haven't grown out of the hollywood brad pitt hairless phase.

Plan9

Yeah, the hairless thing is still going strong.

Hell, my boss was shaving his manboob fleece and nut fuzz in A-stan in prep for the ride home to see his wife on midtour. WTF is with that?

My wife made a comment on this at one point.

She said in romance novels, the guys on the covers rarely have any chest hair and are normally completely devoid of it.

In the books themselves they all have chest hair.

That's telling, Ustwo. Presumably it's the fact that while some women don't want others to know, they don't mind.

Plan9

Or maybe it is really hard to paint a portrait of an oily Fabio with chest hair?

Lack of chest hair ruins such movies as 300 for me. All these bare, muscly chests and no hair on them! When I see a woman in a sex scene rub a hairless man's pec, I always imagine that sound balloons make when you rub them. It's not that I think they look like boys (eg pedophelia), it's that they DON'T look like MEN.

Whatever you do don't shave it. For the next two months your spouse will complain that you feel like a porcupine when snuggling naked.

If you must reduce it, use the "beard trim" attachment on an electric razor to shorten it.

You realize that this statement says you know 16 year olds, right? lol

Baraka_Guru

The amount of body hair is often proportionate to testosterone levels. Interpret that as you will.


I'm fairly hairy. Sparse, but in many locations. Interpret that as you will, as well.

My understanding is that levels of hair are caused by genotype, but I've never heard anything suggesting an association between testosterone levels and body hair.

ngdawg

Have mercy!! Why would anyone shave that???

Seaver

Um... you DO realize there is a 99.999% probability he did shave to make it look like that.

i love my man's body hair. it's multiplying as he gets older, but not horrifically.
my favorite thing to do (well, ONE of them) at night is to curl up with my head on his shoulder and run my hand lightly over his chest hair. it's comforting for some reason. very soft.
and the whole pube stubble thing is dangerous. i actually got a burn on my face and chest once from too-short trimmed pubic hair. you gotta watch that. use scissors.
he's my Monkey Butt. no one tell him i told you all that.

Mike Rowe has the best chest I've ever seen, as far as chest hair goes. Not too much, and definitely enough to make him look like a man.

"Bares" repeating....


And, Seaver...as a conniseur of the strokable furriness of the male pecs, I'm pretty sure, that ain't shaved...combed or oiled up, maybe, but not shaved.


Ahhh...Mike Rowe....

Plan9

Hmm, I just started sprouting chest hair. Maybe it is all the fighting I'm doing?

BARAKA! YOU WANNA WRASSLE!? C'MON! DADDY NEEDS TO GROW A SWEATER!

...

Dunno about the science stuff, but I'd suggest certain ethnicities and genetic lines grow more hair than others... testosterone is a factor, but not the only.

I'm pretty sure my body hair isn't a result of my fighting, considering I don't think I've ever been in a real fight. The hair must be a result of my insatiable lust.


Yes, genetics are at play too, I'm sure. Testosterone's effects are related to growth of certain cells. It explains why men are generally bigger and hairier than women.

I banged a chick who had shoulder hair. She shaved it, but I saw the stubble.

Baraka, you're so humble. I want to fight you because I admire your humility.

see, just the mention of manhair and insatiable lust in the same thread makes me all

and, I also offer into evidence my reaction to the man who could make his balls dance...

Any girl who finds you hot with clothes on is going to find you hot with your clothes off (unless you somehow have 7 nipples, and who knows, she might like that too)

2 examples:
1) Normal Ppl: You're too hairy. Like a gorilla (ouch for me when I had less self-confidence).

Female Result: Have had a bunch of gfs and girls, none ever complained. In fact, my current gf (and future wife) says its so hot.

2) Normal Ppl (especially during basketball): Good lord you sweat a lot. (I started bringing a towel and an extra tee just to play a couple hours of ball)

Female result (most girls I remember): OMG, it's so hot when you sweat on me! (That works for me)

Um I don't like hairy men at all. Sorry. I once kinda sorta dated (ok hooked up with) this guy who I didn't know had a very hairy chest. Let's just say once his shirt came off, that totally killed it for me.

I love a hairy chest - love it, love it, love it!

During it's the way when you're in just the right position and it brushes against your nipples and after you can lay your head on his shoulder and play with the little sweat curls (carefully so you don't pull ofcourse)

I could do that for hours just basking in the after glow

Yes guys sorry I'm a cuddler after sex

I've never had a thing against short, hairy, pudgy, balding men with tattoos.

My first husband was short, hairy and pudgy and I fell for him.

The man I just broke up with was short and balding.

Never been with a guy with tattoos, as of yet. But I don't imagine it would be a deal-breaker...well, unless the tattoos were really, really stupid...that would be a huge turn-off.

I'm not particularly hairy, so I keep things trimmed.

James has a little bit of hair, he doesn't have back hair but he does have booty hair and I LOVE it! So, no not all women hate body hair on men. I love James how he is. Hair or not! He's beautiful and manly!

Shauk

I actually work with a 15 year old if you want me to get technical

Whoa... what the hell? This totally seems like a crime. I demand you fix this... time now!
