A Bold New Frontier: Body Hair!

A Bold New Frontier: Body Hair!

Somewhere along the way, hairy bodies became undesirable. Particularly for women, but men have been catching up in the smooth revolution of late. Despite being a perfectly natural part of our bodies, the idea of hairy in certain regions has become so unacceptable that we’re doing everything we can to get rid of it. Shave it, pluck it, wax it, laser it—anything to get rid of it! Being hair-free is a distinct cultural phenomenon that means you’re more likely to hook up with someone who does some level of hedgetrimming and weed-whacking than someone who let’s their forests go.

So, what do you do when you do meet a hirsute hotty? Will this be a problem?

Joys of hairy bodies

A hairy body can be a truly wonderful body to play with, for many different reasons. We’re now culturally-trained to discount hairy bodies from the inventory of sexy. More often than not, at the sight of a man’s shaggy back or a woman’s fuzzy legs, you’ll get gasps of displeasure. Curiously enough, if you ask those who gasp what repulses them so much, they’ll have little more to say other than “So much hair!” Chances are though, they’ve never played with someone with this type of body and if they did, those gasps just might change to another type.

At this point, we clarify something: This isn’t just about women who have body hair. Because women’s bodies have been so much more regulated and controlled, over time the amount of hair on a woman’s body has continually decreased. They are pretty much left with the hair on their head and their eyelashes (eyebrows come in and out of fashion). That said, recent times have shown that people are preferring men to be much less hairy than in previous generations. While guys haven’t caught up to women, the trend is definitely being established.

A new adventure!

For those of us who have grown up with the smooth-as-silk body type, touching a person with body hair can be a whole new adventure. The first thing you’ll notice is the visual. A hairy body definitely looks different and can definitely accentuate many sexy curves and shapes. Next up is touch. If you’re accustomed to smooth skin, the texture of hair is an entirely different experience. And it can change depending on how you are touching your partner, and where. Some hair, such as a man’s chest can be a little more coarse, whereas everybody’s armpit hair is usually soft and silky. Try running your hand up someone’s hairy legs—and then back down. Your hand will tingle with delight!

So far we’ve focussed on enjoying someone else’s hairy body. How would you feel letting all of your shrubbery run wild?

A main advantage, particularly for women, is that growing hair can make grooming so much easier. And finding a partner who is either neutral or turned on by a hairy body can help decrease the stigma that comes from society’s obsession with hairlessness. Ultimately, it is up to you to grow or not grow hair depending on your personal comfort level. And if you do decide to, all of the scenarios from above will apply to you too.

Get ready for a hairy good time!
