    Or, hear me out, you could just not bother at all. It works for (most) men after all ;)

      I’m 52 and can’t be bothered with the waste of time. I will occasionally shave because it does feel nice for a bit afterwards. Honestly, same goes with my pits. In all fairness though, I’m fair skinned with lighter colored body hair that isn’t all that thick. EXCEPT for the motherfucking chin hairs. Those damn things I curse at each and every one that I rip from my face.

      That said, people should do whatever the fuck they feel comfortable with in regards to their own body hair.

      Yeah I don’t understand shabby fashion at all. I mean if I’m wearing clothing that’s full of holes it’s because I’m too cheap and lazy to buy new clothes.

          Never worn holes through the knees of any pants. Mine usually tear all around the pockets, around the beltloops and such. Even at the bottom of the pockets where the bottom of my phone would rub against the inside of the cloth. That said… Unless you are falling down how are you wearing holes in the places shown in the picture?

        Yeah that’s why Kurt Cobain and other punk/grunge musicians wore this kind of clothes. Then he became one of the biggest rockstar ever, which caused him to blow his head off and the trendy people to start dressing like him.

        That is to make sure that next time you fall on tarmac, you properly scrape your knees instead of just having it rubbing with rough cloth.

          That’s legit though. I’m talking about the people who buy jeans that are pre-worn, with big holes and cuts in them from the store!

    Holy moly that would save so much time. I already kind of cheat and mostly do my thighs now that it is winter, since I don’t really feel my shin hair normally.

      That’s funny; my thigh hair is so thin I don’t even bother, even in the summer. Meanwhile my calf hair is darker and more obvious so that’s what I shave.

    I only shave my legs when pulling up my ski socks (knee-high, tight enough to not fall down, but I’ve never been skiing) causes pain from pulled hairs. And sometimes when I go to a pool. So like maybe 5-8 times a year.

    I don’t wear shorts or skirts above the ankle, so I really don’t care most of the time.
