It also helps maintain odor, back from our pre-civilized days when odor was a marker, and humans use dtheir sense of smell to recognize each other.

in europe and asia and africa many women do not shave their armpits. the men over there don;t seem to give a fuck, they still get mad stiff, wet spots all over the front of their trousers.


in the 70's it was not that it was necesarily desirable to have a thick bed of hair on your chest. what was desirable was to leave all your hair, head, legs, and chest, "natural" whether that meant a lot of hair or a little. those gold medallions had to rest on something!

yup. i've mentioned this before but i dont shave under my arms. when i went to copenhagen i was very low on cash (the american exchange rate blew) so i decided to take the opportunty to not buy a razor and see what happened. i grew to love my arm pit hair. my girlriend loves it too. if it was smelly or something i would shave it, but it's completely managable. i'm glad that i no longer have to deal with that prickly just shaved feeling. i find it kinda funny that i can fuck with so many people's notions of femininity just by raising my arms.

 

<--- i love that fur.
