That's ok Taurean. And maybe today I'm being a bit too sensitiveWe all have our reasons and preferences and that's ok. I grew up with a very judgemental mother when it came to body hair. She was very vocal and used to publically tease me and she even bullied other women by calling them unclean etc if they didn't shave the parts of their body that she shaved. My mother couldn't stand the fact that the lady next door didn't shave her armpits. She used to gossip about her to anyone who would listen and even used to cut out deodorant ads and put them in her letter box. the woman didn't smell, she just chose not to shave. I felt soooo sorry for this woman and it's really stuck with with me. Mum also made fun of my hairy legs etc when i hit puberty. So I guess I'm super sensitive to any perceived attack between women regarding body hair. I just didn't want this thread giving me "mother-flash-backs"
ETA: yep, the thread title is "to wax or not to wax" and I thought both tactful opinions were welcome.
