You should do whatever makes you happy.

Sparklingbrook · 05/12/2016 20:51

In what way does this pride show itself?

Gutted2016 · 05/12/2016 20:53

I just smile to myself in the bath and just think "faaaaak that's a lot of hair". I don't Facebook it with emojis.

I used to feel the same about my leg hair during winter but it doesn't grow on the shins anymore. I was mildly disappointed.

Grin pubes?

Gutted2016 · 05/12/2016 20:55

Nah, not pubes. It doesn't fill me with the same warm feelings for some reason. I just really enjoy my armpit hair for some reason! Grin

No. I never have. But now you mention it I am curious about how long the upper limit of armpit hair is? Long enough to plait?

Gutted2016 · 05/12/2016 20:58

Mine has been an inch before I've shaved it and I felt real sadness at seeing it go.

YANBU. I am in the process of growing my Christmas pelt. It's bloody freezing and I need all the help I can get! I actually felt brief envy when I saw a bearded bloke today

SaucyJack · 05/12/2016 20:59

That's genuinely heart-warming ❤️.

QueenMortificado · 05/12/2016 21:02

I saw to my bikini line for 10 years and when I became single again I let my bikini line roam freeeeeeeeeee

It is bizarrely satisfying to see how long it has grown. And feels quite nice to stroke too.....

Thank you for sharing.

SeasonalVag · 05/12/2016 21:04

I grow a lovely neat little tail. Only shave in summer. I enjoy my secret act of rebellion.

FrankensteinsSister · 05/12/2016 21:05

Yanbu.
I feel the same about the hair on the back of my thighs.

HemanOrSheRa · 05/12/2016 21:13

Yanbu. I haven't shaved my armpits since September (or my legs). The hair is luxuriant. I rather enjoy giving it a stroke Grin.

Buttwing · 05/12/2016 21:14

When me and my cousins used to go to see our family in Italy for the summer we used to have a competition to see who could grow our armpit hair the longest.Grin

AwkwardSquad · 05/12/2016 21:17

There's a great Billy Connolly sketch about growing your pubic hair.

FeckinCrutches · 05/12/2016 21:18

I haven't shaved my legs for weeks. The hair swishes when I walk from the bathroom to my bedroom, it's amazing.

JustSpeakSense · 05/12/2016 21:29

Whatever blows your hair back Grin

SaucyJack · 05/12/2016 21:37

Is this your shin fecking?

squoosh · 05/12/2016 21:42

I grow a smattering and that's about it. My winter pelt is more like the pelt of a mange infested raccoon rather than a glorious bear skin.

ClopySow · 05/12/2016 21:43

I'm currently growing my leg hair. It makes me very happy.

Can we talk about boob hair please? Or is that going too far?

SprogletsMum · 05/12/2016 21:46

I bloody love leaving my leg hair to grow in the winter. I have to have internal scans every 3 weeks though this year so every time I get a nice coverage I have to shave it off to make getting my flange out slightly less embarrassing.

TheWeeBabySeamus1 · 05/12/2016 21:54

I've been single for nearly 2 years and haven't shaved a thing in that time! I'm rather impressed with just how hairy I can get.

ClopySow · 05/12/2016 22:00

That's where i am with the leg thing seamus it's been about 3 months.

Seriously though - boob hair? Anyone?
