    Thank you for this refreshing video.
    First, I am a 60 year old married man. I see the question is not why women do not shave body hair, but why do they shave?
    American women started shaving around 100 years ago, but not respectable women. By 1960, most American women were shaving. Like most, my wife started shaving at puberty as American girls are indoctrinated to do. The glamor, entertainment, and porn industry's still paint women with natural body hair as dirty, not feminine, unattractive, and feminist activities.
    But today, many women, young and old, are asking themselves why they are ritually removing their body hair.
    Women who choose natural body hair are still openly shamed by some. I find this body shaming of women to be deplorable! We live in a culture of tolerance and diversity, but some brazenly shame those who don't conform to their social norms.
    My wife is NOT a feminist, but she did quit shaving a couple of years ago in her mid fifties. As we matured thru our 50s, we adopted a more natural lifestyle and began questioning why we do some things we have always done, and removing body hair was one.
    She was initially self-conscious about having leg and underarm hair, in shorts and tank tops, or a sleeveless dress during the summer, especially in the office where she works. But it turned out few noticed or cared. And those that do are the ones with a problem. She is now totally comfortable and confident with her natural look. She no longer gives it a second thought or feels a need to cover it up. And she will never go back to shaving.
    Personally, I love her natural hair far more than when she shaved. Never again will her legs or underarms have 5 o'clock shadow, bumps, rash, stubble, or be scratchy like a man's shaved beard. Her legs are far more soft, smooth, and supple than they ever were when shaved.
    From my perspective, she's far more feminine and attractive with all her natural body hair than she ever was shaved. She now looks like a woman. A mature woman. A very beautiful, attractive, and feminine woman. Not a little girl that has not yet reached puberty.
    To shave or not is a personal decision. And those who choose to be natural should be respected. Not ridiculed or shamed by those with a different opinion.
    We encourage women to consider why they do it. And to understand that not removing their body hair, and embracing the natural body hair they have as a mature woman, does not make them dirty, unattractive or less feminine, but in fact makes them more a woman, more feminine, and simply more natural.

      Hey, I know what you’re going through and it’s so so hard and upsetting, I’m sorry you’re in this situation. The boys who pick on you don’t know what they are saying (they are just copying each other), they should take the time to realise all girls have hair, it’s natural & healthy. These boys are simply clueless. I have hair absolutely everywhere! I’m so hairy - and I do shave but not often anymore. I promise you there are kind people out there who will appreciate you for you.❤️❤️
      What does your mum think about the nasty boys? And body hair? I’m sure she’s had similar experiences growing up. My dad was really unhappy when I started shaving - but it was either disappoint my dad or be singled out by my classmates. It’s such an unfair pressure on us girls because either way we loose. Please know you can come to me always and ask me anything 🥰🥰🥰

      You're too young to have this pressure. I can understand your mum might feel you are too young to need to shave. All girls have body hair, some more than others. It's natural. Have another chat with your mum about the fact that you're being picked on. Maybe she would help you choose something to remove noticeable hair, if it's really bothering you (lower legs, for example). Surely boys don't need to know about any other body hair at your young age? Stay strong. You're beautiful. You're normal. 🥰

    thank you for this video! I'm literally hairy and I have noticeable hair everywhere. all my childhood I didn't like myself so much for this and other children humiliated me, although it's not a disease, it's just genetics from my Iranian dad, so I began to shave, but there were irritations and I began to constantly dress closed. now I'm on the path of self-acceptance, I can shave my legs, armpits and arms, but I do it intermittently and try to accept my body and appearance. your videos really help me to become more confident, I like your thoughts and your atmosphere, you're very inspiring 🌿🤍

    I love this video! I personally love how I look with hair - it makes me feel more like a woman and less like a girl. But I still find myself feeling self-conscious when others can see it, specifically under my arms. I think a lot of it is in my head but I can tell when it draws people’s gaze. But I think it’s important I keep it as I do love it and the more I exist with it in public the more comfortable and confident I will become. Thank you for this video ❤️ There seems to be a sea of people saying the opposite, it’s refreshing to hear someone talk so positively about body hair!

    Glad you are talking about this. The reason for modern attitudes about women and body hair goes back to the 1920’s. When Old Man Gillette, realized he was only selling razors to half the population. He then created a guilt inducing advertising campaign targeting women. You can look up the advertising yourself. It was aimed at making people view hair on women’s legs and underarms as unattractive. This is the only reason women shave. It is so nice to hear a young lady like yourself talking about it. It is also nice, when I’m out in public, to see women who don’t shave. This older man loves to see women choosing for themselves how they keep their bodies. It’s not a turn off. It is how a woman’s body is supposed to be.

    I remember the first time I felt ashamed of my body hair. I was a teenager, and my friends would often joke about their own hairless legs and arms. I, on the other hand, had a thick layer of dark hair on my arms, legs, and even my face. I felt like a freak, like I was the only one who didn't fit in.
    As I grew older, the shame only intensified. I would spend hours waxing, shaving, and tweezing, trying to rid myself of the hair that seemed to grow back overnight. I felt like I was in a constant battle with my own body.
    But the more I tried to fight my body hair, the more it seemed to fight back. Ingrown hairs, razor burn, and painful waxing sessions became the norm. And yet, I couldn't stop. I felt like I had to conform to societal beauty standards, even if it meant hurting myself in the process.
    One day, something inside of me snapped. I was exhausted from the constant struggle, and I realized that I couldn't keep living like this. I started to question why I was trying so hard to change my body to fit someone else's idea of beauty.
    That's when I discovered body positivity. I started reading about self-love, self-acceptanc and the beauty of women's natural bodies. I saw pictures of women with hairy arms and legs, and they were proud of their bodies! They were beautiful, strong, and confident.
    For the first time in my life, I felt like I could be myself. I stopped waxing, shaving, and tweezing, and let my body hair grow. It was scary at first, but as I looked in the mirror, I saw a strong, capable, and beautiful person staring back at me.
    I realized that my body hair was a part of me, and it was beautiful. It was a symbol of my strength, my resilience, and my uniqueness. I no longer felt ashamed of my body; I felt proud of it.
    I still have days when I struggle with self-doubt, but I know that I am not alone. I have a community of body-positive warriors who remind me that I am enough, just as I am. And when I look in the mirror, I see a person who is worthy of love, respect, and admiration - body hair and all!

    I don’t mind the hair but when it starts to grow too much and wearing jeans it irritates my legs so that’s when I shave them and it feels so smooth and clean but then here comes the bumps so I use the calm Eucerin which doesn’t stop the hair from growing back but who cares I appreciate my body for the way it is and if other people don’t then too bad it’s my body not theirs everyone has their own preference I think people need to stop acting childish and worry about themselves.

    I don't mind body hair on other people and I think the decision to remove body hair or not should be up to the individual.
    However, I personally can't stand how my body hair feels on my own skin and my underarm hair worsens my body odor, so personally I prefer to shave.
