There's something about hairy

Tom Dunne

Or is there?

As a member of the brethren, who judging by last weeks mini-beers, is a leader in the follicley challenged stakes, I am not short of hair in other regions. Stop sniggering at the back.

You see, I have a hairy back. And a very hairy chest. And hairy shoulders (that's been a recent development, much to my dismay). And of course, the obligatory hairy knuckles.

So, where do the wimmins stand on this matter? I think we have safely established their love for our beer-bellies, so where do you stand on hair that is elsewhere?

Give them a pair of velcro gloves and you're sorted!!!!

You forget the nasal jair and the bushes growing out of your ears.

I read a magazine survey once on that subject and it went something like this

hairy chest.....ok

hairy belly... ok if not too lush

hairy shoulders..... no no

hairy back.. might as well have Aids!!!



Sorry bout that .

My hair is falling faster than house prices right now... and the more head hair I lose, the more I gain on the rest of my body. The ratio of body hair to head hair is about 10 to 1 now

Seriously ... if I take my shirt off, it looks like I'm wearing some kind of bondage freak waist-coat.
I could put plaits in my chest hair. I do condition it ... to keep Mrs trout sweet.

On a positive note ... I find that cold weather no longer bothers me as much :cool:

:eek: I just pointed that out to a work colleague. I didn't elaborate as to why the cold weather didn't bother me, though.

You condition your chest hair?

Brother Trout, I'm absolutely shocked.

By the way, I took your advice, I hope that's ok.

well, i dont really like my men with hairy chest, shoulders or back so it would be a bit of a wax job - why

my friend, (who shall remain nameless for the dignity of her boyfriend), waxes her boyfriends ears, she waits until he fails asleep and then whip

First the ears, then God knows what will be next.

She deserves a smack for that.

If any woman tried to wax any part of me while I was sleeping, I'd slap her.

I'm not usually a violent man. In fact, I'm a lovely guy.

But that. That oversteps the mark.

John Mason

i think it is just easier for him to let her get on with it now

It's the nose hairs that I hate. They actually offend me. It's not that hard to trim people! and you can't moan that it hurts, its just a little snip.

i bought my ex one of them, and i have noticed that since we split up he has stopped using it ..........a number of people have remarked to me

Don't mention the word snip around here!!!

On a related note, for body hair, I find the available area for this is growing, while the head remains the same size. Migration to the suburbs I like to call it.

The question must be asked though.

What are you doing looking up your ex's nostrils?

monkeyfudge

For someone who is obsessed with monkeys I'm actually not all that hairy... well certainly not now that I've shaved my beard and cut my hair short...

But my legs are a little on the hairy side I guess... I'm thinking of wearing a kilt to a future social event this xmas... should I shave them?

I'm with you on that.

Especially if there's a giant booger attached to the end of it. :eek:

Your hair isn't short, it was probably, with the exception of the wimmins, the longest there on Friday.

Don't shave your legs.

Don't do it man. The only acceptable reason for doing this is to aid in getting laid. If it is purely for this reason, then go ahead. Otherwise ditch the skirt idea, and definitely leave the leg hair alone.

I hope that was a level though

Waxing it is then, so...

I trim my bfs but he doesn't like it at all. I usually wait until he's had a few beers and is more passive, or I wait until he's asleep.

Bloody waxing, what are ye like! This should be over in Fashi... oh, I can't say the word...

Hair is natural and it's there for a reason. As has been scientifically proven, when we are young our brains are not fully developed. So we have hair on our heads to protect our brains, keeping them warm as they mature and make us the men we are. Once we reach our peak maturity in our mid-20's to early-30's our brains no longer requires this protection so the hair follicles begin their journey south. Now it has not been fully proven if this journey starts as part of an internal chemical reaction or just gravity having its way. Anyway this journey south, known as the follicle migration, leads to hair growth all over our bodies. The main reason for this growth is that our bodies, particularly the bellies, have not yet fully matured. Scientists have yet to figure out when our bellies will reach full maturity but they have a theory that once they have reached full maturity the hair follicles will eventually complete their migration upon arriving at the most southerly point in our bodies, the soles of our feet.
