It is now cool to be a hipster, not a nerd. Hipsters and nerds just happen to share some of the same articles of clothing.

I keep hearing this everywhere. When we're totally desperate and freaking out people can smell our desperation and don't want anything to do with it. We don't start to be attractive until we don't give a shit.

22 year old, never had a girlfriend or been kissed. I'll be in your situation in about three years. I don't think I'm going to die alone. I'll always have a cat or two. :)

I've heard stories about how they will eventually heal up if you don't have acne back there anymore, but unfortunately I haven't noticed a difference. As far as I know, the marks are permanent. :(

Plus, it's dirt cheap. You can get a bottle of it at the pharmacy for $10 that will last you 2-3 months.

No that actually works. Just make sure to get the bottle that doesn't have weird extra vitamins added. I had horrible back acne for probably 6 years. It cleared up in less than two months. I still get the occasional pimple, but I consider cod liver oil a necessary part of my diet now.

Meanwhile, guys are cut, not cut, haven't washed properly, haven't washed their sheets, just ate a burrito, leave skidmarks, wear stained tighty whiteys, have huge random bushes and butt hair, have backne, back hair, nose hair, stained teeth, blackheads, callouses, bad breath, ear hair, BO, etc.

GD it always annoys me when I hear about people way younger than me having sex all the time. I have got to be doing something wrong.

I would LOVE to go eat a taco right now. You can take that any way you want ;)

Catching up on all the fun you missed yesterday?

The keyword being "need." There are obviously many men and women in this thread who prefer hairless, but very few who require it.

You aren't the only one who changed preferences after a request from a partner. There are a couple of other people in this thread who were asked once to try a different style then kept it.

Typos aside, it was supposed to read "most men that I know." I'm still thinking it's a younger guy thing; honestly, I don't think anyone would express a preference if he thought it would decrease his chances of being laid-except a piggish asshole.

I just wanted to thank you for doing such a good job defending shaved/waxed/lased genital areas as non-pedophilia inspired. It's nice having people defend our right to do what we want to our bodies without being judged. So Thanks!

I agree, and I worry that this will quickly become MRA anger-fuel in the future. Part of what this thread serves to say is that everyone has their own preference, regardless of sexual orientation, sex, or maturity. I hope that some of the people who are hard-line one way or the other will read this thread and see that…

Haha, same here! Middle kids are so unlucky :'( Were you the older or younger sister? My younger sister never did the nails, for some reason. It was all my older sister.

Never had that problem. With my sisters it was the nails that got used. I have scars on my arms from my older sister's nails. The nails, I suspect, were more effective than the arm hair pulling.

One side of my family is Sicilian, the other is from Polermo. I know exactly what you mean about chest/leg hair looking like pubes. It's really weird, but I love my arm hair for some reason. Like, it makes my arm feel soft to me. I honestly think I would break up with a girlfriend who asked me to shave my arm hair. I…

Ah, so THAT's the evolutionary reason pubes exist that everyone was talking about. Maybe I'll let mine grow back out.
