Would you go to the beach with legs this hairy?

I would, and have. I swin often, and am regularly in the growing-out phase between waxes.

No I wouldn’t personally however if I happened to notice someone else had hairy legs I wouldn’t think anything of it. Probably very unlikely to notice

Well, by Southern California beach standards, they are hairy, trust me on that XD But the aesthetics for women/girls in Southern California are very focused on appearance and looking as "beautiful" as possible, especially in cities like mine, which are "wealthier" (I've lived here all my life - parents bought a house here in the 70s when prices weren't ludicrous - there's no way I could afford to move/live here myself now if I wasn't a lifelong resident, lol.)

I shaved maybe two-three weeks ago (can't remember for sure) so the hair's not as long as I let it get in the winter, when I REALLY don't GAF about my leg-hair XD in the summer I shave occasionally when I feel like it/when I can be arsed to. So yeah, it's a little shorter than my usual, but for my town, most girls/women shave/wax/get permanent depilation on their legs.

Still maintain my opinion re: OP's original question though - have gone to the beach with hairy legs myself and not cared a whit XD

Yes. I'm lazy about sharing so not infrequently go running with legs much like that. Back when I waxed, I once went swimming with one very hairy leg and one depilated leg. It looked odd, but I wasn't going to cancel my swim because I hadn't had time to do both...

I wouldn’t because from a sensory point of view, I can’t stand having leg hair. But I wouldn’t notice anyone else’s situation and even if I did, I wouldn’t give a shit.

Depends how much head space I had to give a crap.

I don’t think I’ve ever been naked while having any kind of anaesthetic!

I am torn between
🤣🤣🤣
and
🙄🙄🙄

See naked people daily (anaesthetist) legs look way more often like that than hair free

Eh. Odd take on my comment there.

Nothing wrong with shaving. I do it occasionally myself when I can be arsed.

There is nothing wrong with having hairy legs and your comment came across like you thought there was something wrong with it.

Well it's my personal preference. Funny how so much support for those who want to go hairy, but if we want to shave, we're not allowed. How about just not judging women for their choices?

Again not hairy

They don't look that hairy on the photo.

But, I speak as one who has so little leg hair that I've never shaved mine

Exactly this. Never would have gone out with non shaved legs etc. Now dont care..I guess we get to a time when other stuff takes priority

I’m American, but I live in a touristy beach-town in Southern California. I’m pale as milk and even though my hair is light, I’m SO pale that my leg-hair stands out and is quite visible XD

And I don’t give a shit any more XD I’m 43 now and I don’t think I’ve cared what other people think about my leg-hair since my late 20s and I finally realized that I don’t have to dress how other people want/tell me how to dress! XD

I usually wear men’s cargo shorts (bought from Costco!) every single day (I live in an “it’s always summer” area, so I rarely wear pants unless it’s actually chilly or rainy) so my legs are always on display below the knee. XD (Men’s cargo shorts because POCKETS!)

No one has ever commented on my leg-hair except for my mother, who is a world-class narcissist and is of the generation that thinks that women need to wear a full face of makeup every single day, even if they’re not going anywhere and staying in the house all day. (She’s 80. We differ quite a bit on makeup/hair/clothing opinions. I drive her insane on a daily basis because I rarely wear makeup and I rarely style my hair unless we’re going out to the theatre or something.)

So yes, I’d go to the beach with legs that hairy - have done it many a time and sometimes with even-hairier legs XD

Attached image of my current level of hairiness XD (I’m very clumsy, hence the many scars/healing scrapes, lol)

I go by…

If I don’t look - they can’t see! 😂

I have to shave everyday. Got to the point on holiday that my legs were just sore. I skip a day and I look like this. I didn’t give a shit and went for it. I don’t think anyone noticed! Nobody knew me from Adam and won’t see me ever again so stuff it. I’ll make sure I get a leg wax next year. Can’t be arsed shaving. Roll on winter!!

You say that like there is something wrong with it...

Why not?

No, I don't let mine get like that.

No, I wouldn’t. I don’t care if anyone else does (DD was sporting very hairy legs on holiday) but I wouldn’t. I have very pale skin and very dark, thick hair, so I shave my legs every couple of days in the summer and have done for years (I’m 54).

I wouldn’t but I also wouldn’t notice or care if someone else did

Of course I would. You need to check out the We Do Not Care Club on Facebook or insta

It’s a no from me.

Women are meant to have hair on their legs and even on their armpits! We are conditioned to think it's disgusting on a woman. But just like men we have hair in some places and it's totally natural. Saying that, I sometimes do shave if I know my legs and armpits are going to be on display (which is rare now), because I feel the shame which is not really ours at all. Who decided that women shouldn't have hair in these places?

I have a just under 10 year old girl, she is absolutely perfect as she is. I know she will feel pressure to de-hair, and I understand that pressure to conform as we women have been conditioned to. But I will be incredibly sad when she does, every hair on her is perfect.
