In recent years, I like to keep shaved year round. However, when I have some social event, picnic, bar BQ, family thing, etc, where I will be wearing shorts, I usually let the hair grow out for a couple weeks before. This results in some short hair, about 1/2 inch, but not long and curly like normal. Nobody has ever said anything, and may not have noticed, as it does not appear shaved. I have been thinking about various excuses, if by chance, someone ever did say something, however unlikely, without going into a long song and dance about CDing.

1. I noticed swimmers and bicyclists shave their legs, and it is a cool look.

2. Makes me look younger. Hairy guys look old.

3. Some chick talked me into it. [I'm single]

4. It feels good, especially in the summer.

5. Just wondered what it was like.

6. Chicks don't like hairy guys.

Do these excuses sound reasonable and believable? Some thoughts?
