To ask DH to sort his body hair

[DroningOn]

DH has a hairy belly and chest and I'm sick of finding hair in the bed.

It pokes out of the neck of anything he wears except a buttoned up shirt and tie and gathers all the lint off the inside of his tshirts and it collects in his belly button.

New tshirts are the worst, especially those of a contrasting colour - nothing worse than seeing him climbing into bed with a wad of red fluff in his navel.

Might grow out my pubes and bikini line in protest.

As a hairy bloke, I would say most of us dislike being hairy. But it is so so time consuming to get rid of that much hair! And some of it is rather inexcessable. once when I did try to go fully ken doll I also managed to leave the beer on too long as I was very optimistic with the time it would take to cover me (2 full tubes) so I was burnt completely. It also grows back so quickly, and worse than a hairy chest is a stubbly chest, and I got about 5 ingrown hair infections.

Stop shaving yourself and see what he says. If he notices or indeed cares that you're metamorphosing into King Kong, then broker a deal.

I’m glad I’m not your husband, he didn’t design himself.
Did this not occur to you before you vowed to spend the rest of your life with him?

Obvs get him to clean his own hairs up off the bed. Leaving them for you to shift isn't fair.

The rest of it though is a bit harsh! I love to see dh's chest hairs poking out the top of his shirts. Well, I like his hairy chest full stop tbh. He doesn't have any problem with fluffy stuff collecting in it though.

You could ask him to sort his body hair but, seeing as it's his body and his hair, it's up to him what he does with it.

I think body hair isn’t really up for discussion. I wouldn’t let my boyfriend dictate my body hair

Failing that, put on your best undies, lipgloss and heels. Blindfold him and lead him by the hand into the bedroom for a little 'kinky' fun. Tie his wrists gently, but firmly to the headboard, and his ankles to the posts. And then, whilst whispering some fairly dirty sweet nothings, whip out the waxing strips.

So long as you're hairless, at DH's requests and you've had anal bleaching as part of the give and take of a relationship, I don't see a problem

Yes, his body, his choice.

No, sod that. It sticks out of the neck of his clothes. It’s not the 1970s

Oh god I love a hairy tummy

My DH is very hairy. And that's how I like it.
I find hairy men very sexy

Why did you marry a hairy man if it revolts you?

His body, his choice.

My dh does not have a hairy chest which I thought unusual when I first went out with him as all men in my family and all previous partners have been hairy, which I prefer. I also find the removal of pubic hair weird (apart from bikini line when actually wearing a swimsuit), so what do I know.

It confuses me when people get wound up about normal human bodies. Most of them have hair, get over it.

ah poor fella, you are not worthy of him, let your pubes grow, the world won't end!

Ffs it's just hair. You have no right to tell him to alter his body. If I knew my partner came online and wrote about how much he disliked a part of my body I would be gutted.

It's amazing how many posters allegedly do not give a monkey about their partner's opinion and never make a comment about the other one's appearance.

Of course you can't dictate anything, but you can talk about preferences. He might agree or do something.

I wouldn't want my DH to grow a moustache. (and vice-versa actually )

An ex of mine was quite hairy (a redhead) and it didnt bother me one iota. Ditto he wasnt bothered whether i waxed my legs or not
We had an amazing sexual chemistry and couldnt stay away from each other.

Body hair just didnt come into it.

I find tummy button fluff interesting. I've never had it myself.

A friend of mine has so much body hair that he has to blow dry himself after a bath.

Annoying for him, but he looks quite adorable under all the fur.

And my OH has some hair, not as much as my friend, I like fidgeting with it sometimes. Rubbing it in a circle round his tummy button etc. Quite soothing.

I do wish he would shave his face regularly because his facial hair stabs my face, and he's cuter without the excess facial pubes, but then I frequently don't shave my pits and whilst I know he finds it a bit odd, he doesn't ever say anything.

I don't think a few hairs in bed is a major issue.

YABU.

Hair has a protective and warming function on the body.

Hubby is rather hairy on his legs and tush. Doesn't bother me. I also like it when he gets a bit stubbly on his face - he looks very handsome with a bit of a mustache.

Careful what you wish for...body waxing etc takes a lot of careful maintenance (and cash!). Unless he’s methodical, you’ll probably end up with a rashy, raspy, itching man beside you in bed.

You may find it easier to ask him to vacuum up his hair, and take extra care with his navel? They seem reasonable requests to a partner.

Shaving, waxing or hair removal cream would not give you a good result. The hairs will presumably be very thick and it's such a large surface area, the result would be awful and it would be so time consuming and expensive to keep up with. The only way for him to remove the hair without getting horrible stubble and ingrown hairs, rashes etc is to get laser removal. It's expensive and permanent.

So if he's prepared to pay that much to permanently remove his body hair then I guess that's up to him. All you can do is suggest it. If I was him I'd refuse...

Yes, it is his body. But I am going to go against the grain here. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to discuss it with him in a sensible way. You might come up with something you both like.

Love my hairy DP, he’s like my own little bear. Cuteness aside, i’d never dream of telling him what to do with his body, and he doesn’t tell me what to do with mine. As such, I have an untamed bush and a hairy trail up to my belly button and he just accepts me as nature intended. I do shave my legs and underarms but that’s for me, not him.
