"He told me last night that while he understands that my hairiness does not have any bearing on my value as a human, he is repulsed by how hairy I am, and he cannot help his "subconscious preference for smoothness." I have no idea what the proper course of action here is. Right now, I don't even want to look at him or talk to him. I don't want to start waxing again."
"He is very light-haired and has almost no body hair. He keeps his scrotum clean-shaven. I have very dark, coarse, curly hair and have significantly more body hair than he does. I do shave my legs and pits fairly regularly, but I get 5 o'clock shadow on everything I shave. I waxed my pubic region for several years, but the price and the extreme pain and the weeks of ingrown hairs and rashes just became too much."
