I had an experience last summer that I didn't post about.
I was walking about wearing my shorts, when I ran into my sister.
She looked at my legs and asked, "why do you shave your legs?"
She (and everyone) knows I have a very bad sleeping problem. So I used that as my reason saying that it cuts down on itches I have to wake up to to scratch. She bought it.
Ironically, that is very much true. Once I shaved my legs I realized I wasn't waking up to scratch and have had better sleep because of it.
*Side note: I think she knows I crossdress anyway, so the point is mute. But It does work on paper!
