As women, do you prefer a man with a smooth body or do you like your man to have body hair?
----------
Just to give the men something to post on as well... do you have/not have body hair? Do you like/not like it?
Myself... I have body hair. I'm not some abominable beast, though I don't mind it at all. Hell, keeps me warm when it's cold out I don't mind it on my chest, arms, and legs. I don't like it on my back though.
Anyone else with thoughts/opinions?
Aside from some hair on my arms (barely visible) and on my lower legs below my knees, I have NO body hair anywhere except, well, you know.... 
Would a hairless chest/torso freak ya out?
like mort said
OOK OOK
Mort's seen pics of the child-eating beard as well, it frightens him.
And of course the hair on my head. Hits just between my shoulders.... eventually it will be long enough to tie a blade into and use as a weapon. 
My legs have their own winter coat. It's disgusting.
I prefer a smooth man, not that hair is bad or anything. I think the main point for me is if the man is clean, if he is clean then the hair doesn't matter.
I once dated a very sweet man who was alas very hairy. He tried very hard but couldn't keep the oily, nasty feeling off his bodyhair. I couldn't stand it, but it was no fault of his own.
So if you are of the type that has body hair and think it might be an issue, just shave it off or use one of those creams that removes it.
AARRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
/shudder
As to the above post, dont shave it off, it'll just grow back and in greater numbers then before

YES! I SHALL SHAVE, or use "Nads"Hahahahahaha!, ON MY INNER THIGH!
Thats a brilliant idea. I'll go do that now.
Demitri, women do it, so why not men?
I'm sure most men would find it quite disgusting if a woman who was hairy on that part of her body didn't practice some sort of removal. [ 01-09-2002: Message edited by: Tyewa Dawnsister ]

"Women do it, so why not men" isn't the best rationale

As for shaving body hair.... well.. no thanks. I'll pass unless it is requested by someone very very very special to me or a doctor tells me to. No razor touching anything except my face without a REALLY good reason.

besides my wife likes body hair alot :P
I have some of that stuff.
Painless and easy hair removal MY ASS!! Tried some of it on my shoulder. Syn follows the directions, applies..smooths..pats down.. rips off.
Searing pain followed by blinding white in my vision.
May as well apply duct tape to the hair and pull, it's cheaper.

Especially if it's not clean. you have no idea what may be living in there.. O.o
Back hair is gross, but I can deal with chesthair, as long as it's not leaping out at me, or pokes above your collar... *shudder*
the stomach triangle thing is yummy, and I have no problem with arm or leg hair.. guys just HAVE that. It would be wierd if a guy DIDN'T have hairy legs. just the thing is if I miss a spot while shaving, and am a tiny bit stubbly on one side of my ankle, you have no room to critisize til YOU shave your legs every day.

Those guys are HAIRY!
As for me, I'm going to hate my genes. My dad is a furry beast, and I'm starting to turn into one. I'm probably going to start investing in some sort of hair remover, but sure as hell not Nads...
*shrugs* Just my imput for those who care.
I call my husband 'the satyr' from time to time, not the least of the reasons being his legs, which are quite furry... I don't mind it, gives me somethin' to rub my poor shaved frozen legs against all winter...
but like I said.. under control is the key phrase here.. don't want to have to deal with any jungles down around the nether reigons *shivers in horror*

As a word to the wise and speaking from recent experience. If you need to shave that area for any reason at all. DO IT YOURSELF! Nurses have cold hands and the single blade disposable they had waiting at my "fixing" looked cheap as can be. Glad I took the initiative to do it myself. >_<
I shave my head because it's falling out already. Might as well help it along. My wife now perfers me with the bald look. As for the bodily hair, pretty much my entire body except my back.
One of my favorite lines in a book I read. Star Trek TNG: Imzadi.
In the Star Trek universe the Betazed people are all naked at thier weddings. A Betazed woman wrinkled her nose at Will Riker and asked what the purpose of all that hair on humans was.
Riker put on his best swashbuckling smile and said,"Traction!"

Mortious writes that one down for future reference.
the hair starts on my head and goes literally all the way down to my toes.
even on my toes it's not just 3-4 little hairs, it's thick and long
the hair below my knees is very very dense and thick. when i shaved that part of my legs i went through two razors and it took about 5 hours.
that's after trimming it.
i refrain to speak of the fur in the "personal" areas 'cept for this comment: Braidable.
Ozius
I think this thread has spawned a joke.
Now go out and get some NADS!
The one NADS infomercial I saw... Oh, MAN, my brother and I laughed until we both coughed up one of our kidneys.

Of course having your partner trim/shave you I have found to be pretty damn fun. Just make sure you haven't had an agrument real recent that she/he is still upset about.
I have hair...oh yes...even on the top of the feet. I am like a 6'1" Halfling with Size 13 boats with hair on them!
I hate shaving(sensitive facial skin) so I rarely shave on the weekends or times I am not having to go to the office...a friend always has to rub on my face when I come over since her hubby is one of them smooth guys.
