Is Shaving Un-Manly?

[Forsaken Lover]

Naturally I looked to video games for the answer to my question.



Auron is the manliest of the manly so naturally I should follow his example ri-



Well now I just don't know.

[theundeadhero]

Yep.

(And Auron isn't clean-shaven)

[Ayen]

No.

[Casey]

No. I actually shave my head from time to time because I'm to cheap to get a haircut. I read somewhere that being bald makes you look more masculine.

[Shiny]

Are you talking specifically about armpit hair? If so then yes, but I think it's awesome that guys trim their armpit hair. Makes their smells more bearable.

[Sephex]

What about a neckbead? It would be unmanly to shave that? Pretty sure given how people like to poke fun at people who have neckbeards, it wouldn't be considered unmanly to get rid of one.

That smell is how we attract women!

[Fynn]

It's not.

Sometimes, if you can't actually grow a beard, it's better to shave than look like you're still that teenager with a thin dark shadow over your lips

Oh, we're talking about armpit hair! Silly me! Yeah, I think attitudes toward that are changing nowadays. Not that it's a bad thing.

[Miss Mae]

I hate my underarm hair so I totally understand if a guy wants to get rid of his like society allows me to get rid of mine. It isn't a question of manliness in my opinion.

[blackmage_nuke]

Only if you're shaving because your girlfriend is making you.

[maybee]

Would rather date a hairless armpit guy than a man that looks like he evolved from a woolly mammoth. Just sayin.


Plus male swimmers have to do it, and that's not un-manly.

[Madonna]

I am often torn between being Amanda Palmer and being a hairless ape, and act accordingly.

These perceptions of masculinity and femininity are annoying; much better to be simply shallow and go with what you find appealing.

[Jiro]

I do not wish to be a gross hairy sweaty beast. Does this answer the question?

[Shorty]

A: Nope.

[Quindiana Jones]

Yes. Real men burn it off.
