"Each to their own but I personally cannot stand it.
It's amazing what good PR can achieve isn't it
Women feeling the need to shave is a relatively recent thing.

Not in my lifetime it ain't. |

No, you aren't old enough to remember the Second World War.
A quick Google tells me it sort of started in the 20s, but has only been the norm since the 40s and 50s.

I'm sure I read some random article ages ago saying that shaving went way, way back but then dropped out of fashion.
When I was a student I got intimate with an Austrian girl who had hairy armpits. Fickle as I am, it put me off. |

Like most things it's fashion usually.

Found it (or something similar)
The Egyptians removed pubic hair, as well as almost all of the other hair on their bodies, with sharp flints, pumice stones, or via a proto-waxing process, as did some women from other Middle Eastern cultures; and some women in ancient Turkey used early hair depilatory creams.
The Greeks were not quite so lucky: they removed pubic hair by plucking out individual hairs until the whole area was deforested, or sometimes even by burning off pubic hair. The ancient Greeks thought pubic hair on women was "uncivilized," though there is some debate about whether average women went hairless, or just courtesans. Upper class women of ancient Rome also kept their bonnets smooth, and some men removed their body hair, as well — though they were thought to be "dandies" because of it. |

I very much agree, it is amazing what it can achieve! I think society has a lot to answer for too!

Baladis - good on you. My daughter decided to stop shaving a year or two ago and is happily natural everywhere.
Topsy - sadly I don't think it's just men. I understand it's not for everyone, but words such as "grim" and "boak" are rude and uncalled for.

I utterly agree with you, the same nasty comments are applied to pubic hair too.
I did single out men though as it's unusua for any man to shave anything other than his head and genitalia.
I get turned down in clubs for being overconfident and loud (it's deliberate), I've never been turned down for having body hair! |

Not a fan at all... wife shaves hers and I shave mine, can't stand having hairy pits, it's the only place I do shave mind, everywhere else is trim. Wife is no hair from eyebrows down at all times. |

Well I don't think it's rude and uncalled for to tell the truth . And the truth is that we both think it's grim to see armpit hair on a woman .

I think it's grim to see people starving to death, know that people are being tortured for their beliefs...armpit hair however, it's a bit of hair.
There's a difference between saying, "No, that's not my preference" versus "That's grim/disgusting/horrible". |

It's a simple matter of terminology , and the fact is when asked what we think of it , grim is the best word to describe what we think . Pussy footing around it , or saying something like it's not our preference is diluting what we think .
Sorry if it's offensive , but that's what we think .
It's deeply disturbing , and makes us feel ashamed to be humans when we are asked what we think of those people starving to death , and being tortured for their beliefs , but that wasn't the question posed . |

Not so long ago there was an "ultra high class" swingingestablishment in London where the officers wives did not shave (down there) to demonstrate they were amateurs whearas the pro or semi-pro girls did. But universally armpits were hairless. |
