I totally understand shaving if you compete, since it shows off the muscles and cuts so much better.
For a non competitor like myself, I just can't do it. I use a trimmer on my chest because it is just nasty if I don't, but I refuse to give into the metro androgynous man thing. I think too many men are giving women what they want, which is hairless non-manly men.
Reading what I wrote sounds rude, I don't mean offense to any shavers.
It's just that for me, I can't do it.... I have to be hairy... like a caveman.
Its probably ok for me because I am not handsome like Elvia (he's the one with the handsome pic, right? or am I thinking of someone else?).
If I was a pretty fella I might consider it. I think I look ok, as in handsome for a guy in cellblock-D, but I'm not turning any heads at the beach with my face.
I'm a nose job and 2" of height away from a 7 or 8 I think, lol.
