I was going to make a thread similar to this one, but rather asking how much a woman appreciates a man who grooms himself, and if it's actually worth the effort for the guy to do so. The women that did reply in this thread say that they love hairy men, but mention only the hair on the chest and legs. But what about the back and shoulders?
I'm not even 20 years old and I consider myself to have a lot of hair in all the wrong places. I have some hair on my chest, but the rest would rather grow on my belly, shoulder, and back. Having hair on my shoulders speaks for itself, but on my back it's not just in the middle or my lower back, it's all over my back, especially on my shoulder blades. I could care less about whatever grows on my arms and legs (obviously I'd keep that), but I can't afford to pay for permanent treatment/surgery or for continuous, monthly treatments like cream or services to have it waxed.
So instead, right before I go to the beach or anywhere else I'd probably be shirtless, I have to ask my mom to shave it (the hair on my back and shoulders) for me... It's so embarrassing to ask her to do this but I'd be even more embarrassed to "show off" the hair that I dislike and (apparently) what women find to be a huge turn-off.
I don't even know what I'd do when I move out on my own. I guess when I can afford doing that, I should be able to afford having it waxed...
