You know what really surprised me? The responses I got from men when I asked them about a woman’s body hair.
In case you’re wondering: every one of these men has a college degree. Each one is intelligent, good looking, and any one of them would probably be a viable mate. But this is really all they have in common. Ages range from 24 to 34. They’re from lots of different industries: law, fashion, tech, literature, non-profits and more.
And yet they were all overwhelming in their acceptance of however a woman wants to maintain herself. Of those that even bothered to state a preference, most were in favor of hair. Some were even in favor of armpit hair.
However. I’d wager that if I asked a bunch of high schoolers the same questions, or asked dudes at the gym with barbwire tattoos, or dudes with soul patches, or dudes who use fake tanner, or dudes who wear Ed Hardy, the answers would have been very different. But you don’t want horrible bros to be anywhere near your vagina, much less dictate how you groom it. Right?
Read through what the guys had to say in the gallery, then let us know in the comments how your experiences have differed.
Various Greeks (mostly mythological) represent the gentlemen.

Also. I wanted to use this as the headline image but it seemed obtuse.
