Well, that's kind of the tone I'm getting from these replies to this silly commercial. Also, you said it as if men were growing beards in spite of women's preferences, which I honestly don't think to be the case and was all I was trying to say. I didn't mean it so strongly.

The mere presence of preferences doesn't mean they exist because some evil man behind a curtain has conditioned us to have those preferences! And your friends are right. You would be instantly inserting yourself into a niche market of men if you went for the short haircut. Some do like it, but most of us dislike it on…

We are TOTALLY conditioned to think one style of hair looks better than others! Why do you think hairstyles that were trendy in the past aren't used now? Or why different parts of the country think some hairstyles look great while other parts like the same hairstyle looks ugly? It's conditioning! That's why…

Yes, I "do math". I'm a PE. And I don't pretend to know the armpit hair preferences of India or China. When I said majority opinion I was referencing the US where I assume you live and where you primarily draw from the dating pool. If not, consider it a reference to all places where English is the primary language. If…

Haha, yes, I'm sure you've got the pick of the litter!

Wow. Thanks for the thorough reply. I was obviously speaking in general terms and anecdotal cases such as yours are never effective arguments (kind of like saying my cousin was misdiagnosed by a doctor so nobody should go to the doctor), but yes, you would obviously have been an exception to the rule. It sounds like…

Comparing it to standards of being "in shape" doesn't really work, given that pit hair on men is completely accepted and ignored, but body fat on both sexes is scrutinized to some degree. Also people really do like varying levels of "tone". Personally I don't find body-builder style muscles to be any more…

I think the problem is that hair growth comes with puberty, so shaving equals little girl visuals. This leaves a bad aftertaste in my mouth.Which is then furthered by the fact that women should not get old, or grow up, or be sexual beings, or that it is okay for men to always go for the young ones. If you shave…

That's fucked up that someone tried to call you out in front of everyone, but I've never met a girl that had any rashes from shaving her armpits. Anecdotal evidence isn't the strongest of cases against it being a good look. I'm sure you aren't the only one, but I suspect you are in a small minority. I am not so sure…

But they do seem to match up with the majority which makes them relevant.

Um, exercising is a health issues. What illness are you going to get if you don't shave your armpits? Also, the only reason we think shaving makes women look better is because we're conditioned to by the general culture.

That's my bad about the missing question mark. I'm usually quite good about that.

I'm sure the gentlemen have a similar reaction to you...

Haha, this is a good point, although maybe he's just into solidarity and is aghast that his partner is not reciprocating in the shaving department.

Noxious might be taking it too far. Is there really anything wrong w/shaven armpits being the norm for women. I say no. It's not the most convenient thing in the world, but neither is exercise and we all agree that fit people are more aesthetically pleasing than unfit... Sometimes you have to put in a little work for…

Fun fact: eyebrows are on the head

Can't say I was surprised by the number of fucktards filming in vertical video.

Yes, it is insane to think this was aimed at real gear heads. It is obviously a dying breed that wasn't very big to begin with (just look at % of automobiles produced with manual transmissions), thus obviously not a demographic they were concerned with. I'm assuming this movie was designed for kids with slammed civics…
