Quite a few different answers for that question. Each individual man who does it might have a different reason. Here are a few possible.\n\n1. Because we can.\n2. Maybe we get extra  attention.\n3. Because we just don't like being hairy.\n4. Shaved arms and legs show off muscles better.\n\nI love when people make comments like he is gay because he shaves his legs. \nSo your telling me that removing hair from my legs makes me gay? No it's when have sex with the member of the same sex that usually makes you gay.\nComments like those are usually made by people who are insecure with themselves and their sexuality so they try and make other people look or feel bad.\n\nJust some ranting I had to do.\nAnd yes I shave my arms regularly and shave my legs usually in the summer when it gets hot, and no I'm not gay!

I think it is a matter of personal taste and the taste of the partner with him.  It can be a time intensive and painful process and should not be undergone lightly.\n\nMany men prefer to shave their body hair for weight-litfing and body building competitions and for many other reasons.\n\nBut that is a very personal decision.

They should if that is what they want. I see nothing wrong with it.\n\nShould women shave their legs? If so, why?

You always shave against the grain.  Use a good lather of soap, shaving cream, or better yet an oil based lotion.  You can shave the pubic area, but be ready for the itches as it grows back - a lot of people shave only the area that does not get covered by panties.  Under arm shaving is from the top down and should be done prior to the legs.  Otherwise, I cannot conceive of an area that needs shaving!

There is no connection whatsoever, no matter what anyone may say. We people simply do whatever is natural anyway, especially when it feels fine. The best thing for us is to take care of the bodies we have, like keeping clean, taking showers regularly for example. As we get older with shaving a guy is regularly washing his face, so you get the point.

hi the plain and simple reason is cos unlike other parts of our bodies, our private parts are not exposed to air. so scrub as hard as u may they get hot and damp during the day. that's why we use deodorant under our arms. its the same way guys when they dont shave their underams even when they use the most expensive perfume/deodorant get an odour soon after.\nso the advice is little and simple, shave off as much hair as u can from ur private parts and for guys, u could ty using dustin powder, the sort used in diapers, so u'd keep ur private parts cool and fresh. pants are already hot enough coupled with the briefs/boxers u have to wear...\ncheers.\nP.S In summary it doesnt mean the guy is dirty, he just didnt know the hairs were an impediment to his desire for a fresh aura...

Anatommically speakiing, hair grow ooon parts of the body which are more sensitive to heat e.g. head/scalp, armpits. This one of our bodies protection from. Another function of the hair is protection of the skin from friction, specially in the genital area, during coitus or sex. \n\nSo male and female pubic hair has purpose. shaving it would expose the skin to friction which may lead to chaffing, etc.

I prefer little or no hair. I dunno what it is. I like smooth skin. Just like guys probably like girls with smooth shaven legs - not a forest. I mean.. could you imagine... Hey baby, wanna run your fingers through my leg hair? LOL 'Nuf said

you need armpits as a main ingredient\nand a shaver\nand use it upwards, never downwards so you are smooth

The hair DOES help keep the area cool. It allows air to circulate, and the sweat evaporates, keeping you cooler and drier. Don't shave - you'll get zits and rashes and bumps and look like a holdover from the 1990s. Nobody cool does that anymore.

Most things that one sex does to be attractive to the other sex emphasize the sex differences.  Women shave their legs to increase their hairlessness.

No, it's not bad. It's your personal preference to see a guy without tons of hair attractive. Many women are like that actually. Why do you think guys shave?

Hey you asked the same question about Yao Ming. Well homie I can honestly say I have no clue and I don't think half of America does either unless they voice it amongst us. Most men I know don't shave their armpits but then again to each his own as the saying goes.

I hear some guys do like that- I think some hair is important to show that you are a woman, I mean come on! I like a landing strip. Clean shaven to me is pre-pubescent! Yuk!

I would say yes - know they love pulling it out just to see the reaction that they get!  have you seen men with shaved legs? It really looks weird, must ladies like there men to look like a man and our cultural images at the present time always show men's legs with hair on, so it is more likely that they will like that. \n\nHowever this does change over time, moustaches were very popular at the begining of the last century and men were considered as odd without one, now they are not popular with most people, so it is possible that hair on legs for men will also go the same way.  \n\nDon't think that this is likely, cause just know that we are too lazy to bother shaving them everyday!
