shaved legs in the winter

[trishacd]

I keep my body totally smooth in the winter and tan myself in bikini panties. Yesterday I decided to take a 4 day trip to florida with my wife and also invited my sister. This will be interesting what her reaction will be to my smooth legs.

[Beverley Sims]

Trisha,
She may not even notice otherwise just say you got a skin rash from some trousers you were wearing and you were told shave the hair.
I was busted once and told someone I thought Nair was a suntan lotion.
That worked they just thought I was a bit thick...

I don't bother hiding my shaved legs, chest and belly anymore. I just tell a truth if/when they ask....."My wife loves me smooth bodied", and why are you looking at my legs? Yes I said "a" truth not "the" truth *giggles*

[Dana L]

Nobody will really say much. I used to only shave in the winter too. Then I started keeping the chest, abs and armpits shaved all year and nobody even noticed. Then I started keeping my legs shaved all year and some noticed but made no negative reaction to them. I just said they look and feel better this way my wife likes them too. As far as what Beverly said about the trousers and a rash that is very true. I used to get a bad rash on both legs every winter until I started shaving them and the rash has never come back. I'm guessing from the hair rubbing against my dry sensitive skin.

My body is hairless year round now, I had full body laser hair removal and now will never have to shave again. I went to a family reunion picnic last summer and my legs, arms and pits were smooth and soft and no one said a word, not even my two macho brothers. I am sure everyone noticed because my legs and arms were rather white from lack of sun. If any one asks me if I shave my legs and arms I just tell them no and that I do not have any hair to shave, most people just say Oh, and that usually ends the conversation. No one has ever pushed it any further to find out why I do not have any hair on my body and I have never offered.

Hi Trisha!

Maybe you know that a lot of male athletes shave their legs and that a lot of women like men with smooth legs. So, you could explain that you just started to bike and that, in that community, it is rather odd to not shave your legs (believe it or not!)

I have been shaving my legs since last October. I am an avid cyclist, which very easily justifies leg shaving. I had been reluctant to doing it but decided to take the plunge! There is no way I will go back and have hairy legs. Yuk! It just feels sooo right and comfortable. To help the situation, my wife told me she really likes it when I have smooth legs. I buy women's shaving cream and I use pink razors. Plus, I put moisterizer after I shave them

Good luck with your trip and let us know how it goes!
xoxo

Ditto to Barbie, Dana & Michelle: the very few times anyone has asked about my shaved legs, I tell the truth that my g/f and I both like them that way.

[Jilmac]

I keep my legs shaved all the time and nobody has noticed, but if anybody ever does notice I have a legitimate excuse for shaving, ingrown hairs. My legs were full of them, they were like mini corkscrews and very painful. My dermatolagist suggested that I shave my legs to get rid of them and it worked, so now if anyone would question me I'll just tell then it's doctor's orders.

[Helen Grandeis]

Have a good answer ready but she may not say anything. My wife did not notice until I told her. Then she wasn't pleased.

[Glenda58]

Been shaving mine for years. Had a golf partner say something about them once. Told him I had knee surgery on one knee and they shave it and the hair won't come back so a shaved the other one. Have a small scar so no one know for sure why.

[Tina_gm]

I think it is a fantasy that people do not notice.... but I do think that most just simply do not care.

[Ressie]

I just tell them I'm a transvestite. Not really, but wouldn't it be nice if it were that easy?

[Katey888]

Ressie - I think it really is that easy, but then we're back to taboo again aren't we? And that makes it not easy...

I've shaved mine since New Year and my wife hasn't even noticed... The hair was getting patchy around my ankles - all I can think of is abrasive socks - that's my excuse: 'The hair was patchy and I didn't want to look untidy or get a patchy tan in the summer...'

Just have to make sure I remember to take that ankle bracelet off first...

[Barbie Anne]

I know it's not quite related but Katey's post reminds me of how tired I am of wearing socks to hide my toe rings and my lovely nails that I spend so much time working on. And yes I want to wear my anklets too

[UNDERDRESSER]

I shave the legs, belly, arms. The GF has suggested she could be talked into waxing my back. (If she won't, I've got a local place that can do it for a reasonable fee) I'm having the 2nd tanning session today, (thanks for the reminder) and the intention is to look a lot better when I go to the pool sessions that will be coming up this Summer. Screw wearing board shorts, they'll just have to get over the shock of seeing me in speedos. Personally, I'm just happy that I can look this good at my age.

[StephanieH]

I've shaved mine since 2005 - honestly, very few people have ever noticed. And the ones who have asked me about it, I just tell them I'm not a naturally hairy guy and leave it at that (I'm not anyway), and that seems to satisfy them.

[Ressie]

I usually shave my legs in the winter, but it's been so cold this year that I haven't shaved or trimmed any body hair. Maybe I'll even shave my legs during the summer this year.

[TessInJxn]

My body is hairless year round now, I had full body laser hair removal and now will never have to shave again.

I've been dreaming of this. I have a ton of hair, though. Did it take long to accomplish? Did you have issues with regrowth?

[TessInJxn]

By the way, I shave year round. Everything except my forearms (which I trim very short). No one says much about it. I initially got some questions, and like others on this list, I mentioned that my wife liked a smooth me, which is the truth. My wife doesn't like the long showers that are secondary to complete body shaving though! Thinks it wastes water.

[Adriana Moretti]

I usually dont shave over the winter either its way too cold....but by last week...i just couldnt take it anymore...so i went 100% smooth everywhere....now i'm left wondering why I diddnt do it sooner

[CynthiaD]

I shave everything from the ears on down year round. I'm quite happy showing off my bare chest and legs at the beach. Nobody pays the slightest attention. But if somebody did comment, I'd just say "I like to wear short skirts and low-cut dresses, and that just doesn't work with hairy legs and chest." Most people would assume I was joking.

[Hicuts]

My doctor, a woman, asked me why I shaved my legs
I looked at her and said, "The same reason you do, to remove the hair." She simply smiled and said " touche".

[girlyboyconor]

loving having my legs smooth. makes me feel so femme. doesn't matter if its winter or summer, smooth legs are smooth legs

[carrie2014]

I shave all year around and wear pantyhose in spring, summer, and fall and shaving makes my leggs look bether, Somrtimes people look but never say anything to me.

You may be underestimating the effect of porn. When was the last time you saw anyone who was not shaved in porn? Shaving your genital hair is almost mainstream among today's youth. Shaving your legs? Really, who cares? Or maybe I should say if you are transgender in an environment where shaving your legs is actually an issue maybe you should move? There can't be that many places left in North America that have people that actually care. My son in law got married in Louisiana a few years back and as far as I could see he did not have an unshaved hair on his body. Even I don't shave my arms and scalp. He did and he's not a little bit femme or anything but straight.
