PISCATAWAY, N.J. -- Swin Cash scored 18 points and No. 1 Connecticut moved within a victory of an undefeated regular season by beating Rutgers 80-42 on Saturday.
Sue Bird added 14 points, Diani Taurasi had 11 and the Huskies (29-0, 15-0 Big East) made Rutgers (8-18, 5-10) work for almost every basket in running their regular-season unbeaten streak to 37 games.
Connecticut, which now has held opponents under 50 points in 18 of its 29 wins, will close out its regular season Tuesday night at West Virginia.
The 18 losses this season are the most for coach C. Vivian Stringer in her seven seasons at Rutgers. The 42 points also were a season low for the Scarlet Knights, who have lost six of seven games.
Mauri Horton was the only Rutgers player in double figures with 23 points.
Connecticut, which hasn't trailed in the second half all season, won this game in the first half. The Huskies hit 15 of 27 shots from the field and limited Rutgers to 9-of-27 shooting in building a 43-22 lead.
The Scarlet Knights struggled so much that they only made four baskets in the paint in the first 20 minutes, two coming in the final minute. Only two of the nine baskets were layups.
Cash had 15 points in the half, including a three-point play, a steal and a layup in the opening minutes.
Leading 8-7, the Huskies scored 20 of the next 24 points to take a 28-11 lead. Cash and Tamika Williams each had five points in the run and Bird and Taurasi each hit a 3-pointer as Connecticut beat Rutgers for the 13th time in 14 games.
The Scarlet Knights are only one of four Big East teams to beat the Huskies in the last seven seasons.
No. 3 Oklahoma 90, Missouri 70: At Columbia, Mo., Stacey Dales scored a career-high 30 points and Rosland Ross added 18, all on 3-pointers, as No. 3 Oklahoma defeated Missouri.
Oklahoma (23-3, 13-2 Big 12) clinched the outright regular season conference title for the second consecutive year. The Sooners also shared the title with Iowa State and Texas Tech in 2000.
Dales made 13 of 18 shots and had five assists. Caton Hill added 15 points and LaNeishea Caufield had 12 for Oklahoma.
Missouri (14-12, 5-10) took a 47-45 lead with 15:26 remaining on a 3-pointer by Terianne Wolford, but Oklahoma used an 21-7 run in the next six minutes to take control.
No. 7 Louisiana Tech 67, Tulsa 62: At Tulsa, Okla., Ayana Walker had 19 points and 13 rebounds as seventh-ranked Louisiana Tech won the Western Athletic Conference's regular-season title.
Louisiana Tech coach Leon Barmore fainted and fell to the floor midway through the first half after an argument at the scorers' table over what he claimed was an incorrect possession arrow following a jump ball. Barmore got to his feet seconds later and walked back into the tunnel leading to the dressing room. He returned to the bench after a few minutes.
Cheryl Ford added 17 points and 11 rebounds for Lady Techsters (20-4, 15-1), who trailed Tulsa (16-11, 11-6) 26-24 at halftime and 37-31 early in the second half. Then Louisiana Tech broke down the Golden Hurricane's zone defense with crisp passing that led to several short-range shots for Walker and Ford.
No. 13 Iowa St. 77, Kansas 59: At Ames, Iowa, Angie Welle scored 21 points as No. 13 Iowa State overcame sloppy play to keep Kansas winless in the Big 12.
Iowa State (21-6, 9-6 Big 12) did not pull away in the turnover-filled game until going on 15-3 run in the final six minutes. Until then, the Cyclones never had a string of more than two straight baskets.
Kansas (5-23, 0-15) stayed close for a long time because of Iowa State's 20 turnovers and the Cyclones' poor shooting. But the Jayhawks turned it over 24 times and were outscored 19-5 at the free throw line.
If Kansas loses to Texas on Tuesday, it would become the first Big 12 team to go winless in the conference, which was formed in 1997.
Lindsey Wilson added 16 points for Iowa State, which led just 29-28 at halftime and did not have more field goals than turnovers until 5:17 remained. Tracy Gahan and Mary Cofield each scored 11.
Blair Waltz had 19 points for Kansas and Nikki White scored 11.
No. 15 Texas 91, Texas A&M 63: At Austin, Texas, Heather Schreiber scored 16 points and Stacy Stephens added 14 as No. 15 Texas had its best offensive output this season.
All 11 players scored as the Longhorns (18-8, 9-6 Big 12) eclipsed their mark of 90 points, achieved in victories over BYU over Oklahoma State. Texas led at halftime 42-20, and was ahead by as many as 32 points in the final 20 minutes.
Celeria Washington paced Texas A&M (13-14, 5-10) with 16 points, and Meg Banahan added 15.
No. 21 Boston College 85, St. John's 43: At New York, Amber Jacobs scored 26 points as No. 21 Boston College handed St. John's its 15th straight loss.
Clare Droesch had 19 points and Jessalyn Deveney added 13 for the Eagles (21-5, 12-3 Big East), who have won four in a row.
Mary Pat Statler led St. John's (3-23, 0-15) with 11 points, and Amanda Rawson and Patrycja Gulak each added 10.
The Eagles, who opened the game with a 13-0 run, scored 32 points off 25 turnovers by St. John's.
No. 22 Notre Dame 86, Georgetown 66: At Washington, Alicia Ratay had 24 points and seven rebounds, and No. 22 Notre Dame overcame a halftime deficit and cruised.
Ratay made six of 11 shots, including four of seven 3-pointers, and was perfect on eight free throws for Notre Dame (19-7, 13-2 Big East). Allison Bustamante and Katy Flecky added 14 points apiece for the Irish, who also got 13 from Ericka Haney.
Nok Duany scored 21 points to lead Georgetown (12-14, 4-11), which has lost 12 of its last 16 games. Rebekkah Brunson added 13 points and nine rebounds. Mary Lisicky scored 11 points for the Hoyas.
Ratay hit a pair of free throws and a 3-pointer to give Notre Dame, which trailed by a point at halftime, a 47-42 lead with 16:40 remaining.
Duany scored five points as Georgetown responded with a 7-0 run, capped by her jumper at 13:47 that pulled the Hoyas within 50-49. But they never reclaimed the lead they held for much of the first half.
Villanova 76, No. 24 Virginia Tech 64: At Philadelphia, Mimi Riley scored a career-high 34 points in her final home game -- the most for a Big East player this season -- as Villanova beat No. 24 Virginia Tech.
Katie Davis added 13 points for the Wildcats (17-9, 11-4 Big East), who clinched fourth place in the Big East and guaranteed themselves a bye in the conference tournament in two weeks.
After leading by as many as 17 points in the first half, the Wildcats saw their lead slip to single digits early in the second half. The Hokies (17-9, 8-7) got back into the game behind forward Ieva Kublina's 24 points.
A 3-pointer by Sarah Hicks cut Villanova's lead to 49-44 with 11:26 remaining in the game.
But the Wildcats answered when Davis made a short jumper and then Riley got free for a layup, pushing Villanova's lead to 53-44.

Hey guys, I've been running some tests while setting up some tiered storage, and I noticed something. Even having an empty 'echo' as archive_command drastically slows down certain operations. For instance: => ALTER TABLE foo SET TABLESPACE slow_tier; ALTER TABLE Time: 3969.962 ms When I set archive_command to anything: => ALTER TABLE foo SET TABLESPACE slow_tier; ALTER TABLE Time: 11969.962 ms I'm guessing it has something to do with the forking code, but I haven't dug into it very deeply yet. I remembered seeing incrond as a way to grab file triggers, and did some tests with an incrontab of this: /db/wal/ IN_CLOSE_WRITE cp -a $@/$# /db/archive/$# Sure enough, files don't appear there until PG closes them after writing. The background writing also doesn't appear to affect speed of my test command. So my real question: is this safe? Supposedly the trigger only gets activated when the xlog file is closed, which only the PG daemon should be doing. I was only testing, so I didn't add a 'test -f' command to prevent overwriting existing archives, but I figured... why bother if there's no future there? I'd say tripling the latency for some database writes is a pretty significant difference, though. I'll defer to the experts in case this is sketchy. :) -- Shaun Thomas OptionsHouse | 141 W.

It took 41-year-old Terry Mulholland to slow down Cleveland's hitters and give Minnesota the chance to rally for just its second win in eight games.
Corey Koskie hit a two-run homer in the 10th inning, and Twins overcame a two-run deficit for a 4-2 win Sunday that gives them a two-game lead over the second-place Indians. (Related item: Box score)
Cleveland had won six straight and 10 of 11, taking the first two games of the series by six-run margins.
"We're happy to leave here in first place," Mulholland said. "There are a lot of games left, and I think both these teams are going to be playing some fun baseball."
The teams have 10 games remaining against each other, including the final series of the season at Minnesota.
"I think they know already. We're going to play," Cleveland's Ronnie Belliard said. "They know they've got to prepare for the Indians."
After Lew Ford was hit by a pitch in the 10th, Koskie hit a 1-2 pitch from Rick White (4-5) to right-center for his 17th homer.
Joe Nathan earned his 34th save in 35 chances. He has not allowed a run in 27 appearances.
The Indians put two runners in scoring position in the ninth, but Juan Rincon (10-5) retired Belliard — his only batter — on a lineout to center.
"We brought in our lucky charm. He's the vulture. He just picks up wins," Mulholland said.
Mulholland allowed two runs and six hits in eight innings, the longest outing for the left-hander since 2000, when he was with Atlanta.
"He got us in place to win after getting shellacked here twice," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. "It is nice to get out of here with a win."
Mulholland spent last season in the Indians bullpen, giving him plenty of time to scout their young hitters.
"He's a crafty veteran," the Indians' Casey Blake said. "He got to sit out in center-field and watch a lot of games last year. I'm sure that helped his game plan."
The Indians scored in the first inning for the third time in the series, but Mulholland was able to keep them from a big inning. After Belliard walked, Omar Vizquel grounded to the pitcher for what should have been an easy double play. Mulholland threw wide of Christian Guzman at second and into center field for an error.
Matt Lawton hit into a run-scoring double-play grounder, and Grady Sizemore's sacrifice fly in the second made it 2-0.
Mulholland said he was fortunate to get out of the first with one run.
"I've got a lot of respect for those guys. They have some hot hitters. As for facing a former team — I've faced a lot of former teams," said Mulholland, who is on his 10th club.
Minnesota tied the score in the sixth on a two-run double by pinch-hitter Jose Offerman off Rafael Betancourt, who blew a save for the seventh time in nine chances. Cleveland has failed to convert 25 of 48 save opportunities.
The Indians bullpen has plagued them all season but had settled down following Bob Wickman's return from elbow surgery in early July.
Wickman pitched a perfect ninth. Indians manager Eric Wedge said he was not tempted to leave him in for the 10th.
"With Wicky coming off the injuries, we've got to be smart," Wedge said.
The Twins hit Indians starter Chad Durbin hard, but had only two hits off him. Durbin got out of a bases-loaded jam in the fourth by getting Koskie to strike out and Guzman to line out.
Durbin threw 106 pitches in five innings, forcing the Indians to go to their bullpen early.
"It was a big relief for them," he said of the Twins' win. "We're a team that can contend, and I think they see that too."
Notes: The Twins lead the season series 5-4. ... The Indians lead the majors in extra inning games, going 10-12. Minnesota is 10-6 in extra innings. ... Tim Laker's single in the second ended an 0-for-16 skid. ... Hafner was hit by a pitch for the 17th time. He leads the AL and tied the club record set by Minnie Minoso in 1959. ... Torii Hunter flied out four times and fouled out to the catcher.

Armpit hair on women. Do you love it or hate it?
A little while ago I wrote a couple of lighthearted articles called The Top 10 Passion Killers for Men and The Top 10 Passion Killers for Women. Never could I have guessed the amount of comments I would receive on one of the passion killers listed in my top 10 passion killers for men article, and that was 'armpit hair on women'. It seems that there are still a fair few people both male and female, who think there is nothing horrible about hairy armpits on a woman at all, and that any resulting odour is only a natural woman smell. That said, I also received a large amount of comments supporting the idea that armpit hair is not nice, and that it encourages body odour, as well as being very unattractive. This is what has prompted me to write this short article, mainly in order to get a better idea through a poll, of whether the majority of people (male or female) think armpit hair on a woman is nice or nasty. Of course I could simply have added a poll to the original article, but I felt that to do that would detract from the other things on the list it contained, therefore it would be far better to create a new topically focused article instead. Here is the result!
The Case For Armpit Hair
The case for armpit hair on women appears to consist of a few regular statements made by commenters on the subject, (I have say some some of these comments put forward a very doubtful argument and I don't agree with many of them) :
- Armpit hair is natural and should therefore be left alone
- Any associated odour is only the 'natural smell of a woman'
- Women need armpit hair
- Hairy armpits on a woman are sexy
- Hairy armpits are a sign of health and confidence
- Hairy armpits on a woman are a 'turn on' for men
- Any man refusing a date with a girl because she displays hairy pits is immature and does not deserve a girlfriend
- Armpit hair is a sign of maturity
- Women with armpit hair are confident intelligent people
- Shaving increases the likelihood of developing ingrown hairs
The Case Against Armpit Hair
The case against armpit hair on women as made by commenters consists largely of statements such as:
- Hairy armpits trap sweat resulting in body odour
- Armpit hair on ladies looks horrible
- Men mostly find women with hairy armpits a turn off
- Hairy armpits look masculine
- Greek statues of women in antiquity had no pubic hair, suggesting that hairlessness was an ideal of feminine beauty
- It is part of the Western Culture for women to have shaven armpits
- "Not many men when they first meet a girl go for the yetti look"
- It's just part of living in civilised society
- "I think a woman's armpit area is a very sensual place, and not shaving it takes away from that"
- "I would not want to be with a woman that looks like she is smuggling Chewbacca (from Star Wars) under her arm."
- Armpit hair is no longer required because we are gradually evolving and losing our body hair. We no longer need it for warmth because we have clothes
- Certain religions call for women to be clean shaven
So now you have an idea of the two schools of thought on the subject of armpit hair on women it is your turn to vote on what you think. I hope that over the coming months we will begin to see a general consensus of opinion via the poll results below, and this will give us a far better idea of what the majority think about women with armpit hair. I look forward to seeing the results the polls begin to produce as the days go on, not that it will change the way I operate, I am definitely in the 'hair free armpits' club.
Do you think armpit hair on a woman is attractive?
Do you think having armpit hair tends to cause body odour problems?
Men or Gay Women Only
Would you be put off having a relationship with a woman who had armpit hair?
- The Top 10 Passion Killers for Men
Following on from my hub The Top 10 Passion Killers for Women I felt it only right to redress the balance by writing a hub on The Top 10 Passion Killers for Men. After consulting my Husband and some male friends they shared with me their opinions...
- The Top 10 Passion Killers for Women
Just for a bit of fun I thought I would compile a list of the top ten passion killers for women, in other words the things Husbands, boyfriends, lovers or men in general do, that really turn us women off and leave us wanting to run for the hills or..
- Underarm hair - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- Are men uncomfotable when a woman doesn\'t shave her ARMPITS? Free Dating, Singles and Personals
O.K.. I can't stand to shave my armpits because it is so uncomfortable. It also looks horrid because I get a rash. So I don't and never really cared what anyone thought. I never used to shave my legs
Personally I think armpit hair on women is unattractive but that's me. Some people think that hair on a mans face is unattractive. I think its all just a matter of personal preference. Interesting hub though.
I hate it! lol I honestly wish women didn't grow armpit hair, it's uneeded and very unattractive.
I really detest it especially when these ladies wears sleeveless tops making it very obvious
This is common is Europe
I personally detest it especially when the armpit area is bushy and you still such ladies wearing sleeveless tops and seems not to care at all
Women should stop shaving...everywhere. I like lots of pubic, underarm and head - hair. The more the merrier.
Natural is always best.
Misty - first I was LOL! I like the chewbacca comment! I do not sport armpit hair - And don't like it. I don't care if other women have it - but personally - I shave every day. I know my husband would not like it if I stopped shaving. I'd hate for my armpits to look like his! Ew - but now that I thought that - it would be so weird if a guy did shave his under arms too! Lol
Hey Misty, I'm not interested in seeing armpit hair on a woman. It's unappealing to me. I can see how different women from different cultures were raised and I guess it goes to show something of that culture. I would disagree with the fact that women should stop shaving altogether. I mean, if all women stop shaving and men didn't shave either, then you would have an entire human species of very hairy people. And, I'm willing to bet that there would be even more diseases than there are now. Great hub! :)
Why would or should armpit hair bother me or anyone?
It is good to see others thoughts on this subject. Personally, I have never had the problem, armpit nor leg hair.
I did vote in your poll, though.
I am the complete opposite of Bob.....I like a woman to be hairless except on her head. Nice hub though....:)
I honestly do not like body hair at all... I have a difficult time with chest hair on men. lol Armpit hair is a no no in my book!
This is a very interesting hub, though! I applaud you for going there! ;)
My first instinct is to say I do not care for it. In that it has been quite sometime, however, as long as a girl is actually attached to those armpit hairs..I'm good.
Interesting Hub. I like to see how the different cultures respond to the idea within their cultural norms of idealized feminine beauty.
I'm hitting the UP button!
I think armpit hair is grotesque on both men and women.
Honestly, I don't think I could put up with it. The sad thing is that I fully believe there's no problem with it....I guess societal conditioning has just altered my perception of it way too much.
No, I don't think it matters, except for personal preference.
Reminds me of a joke though, about how you can tell if an airplane is from an eastern European country.
Why did you had this doubt..I hate the smell of armpit..I don't like...
Quite a thoughtful hub mistyhorizon2003!
Sometimes the hair on women does look sexy and turning on but largely it doesn't suit most of them!
Like for example, it doesn't look good at all on girls under 25.
It largely depends upon the perspective of the person and it is clear from the various comments above!
But still, thank you very much for sharing the hub! :)
And yes you can stay with the resolution you made in your last comment! :)
I have never dated anyone with armpit hair, but I have known females who do not shave and it has never bothered me.
It is the person's preference and I make a note of it - like what shirt they are wearing or what-not, but it doesn't excite me or disappoint me. I would have to say if my wife grew armpit hair the only thing that would really disturb me is if she stuck it in my face or something. I don't do this to people and I don't expect it done to me.
Misty - I'm laughing still at the comments. This was a brilliant hub:)
My 12 year old is home (sick - just returned from the doc) and she asked what I was laughing about, so I showed her your hub and read parts. Omg! Omg! All this time - she has been expecting chest hair and wondering when she would need to shave her chest like her legs and underarmsM LOL LOL. Thank you for helping me get her righted on that!
There are only four regions on a woman's body where hair is acceptable: A woman's head, arms, eye-brows/lashes and nether region.
I remember once, years ago when I was a young Ranger, that I saw a woman wearing shorts in a grocery store. At first I thought she was a man. She was wearing white shorts, a yellow t-shirt, and had long curly hair.......all over her legs!!! I damn-near threw-up right there and then on aisle five. Twenty years later I can still see the image in my mind and it still makes me shudder.
Later on, and to my chagrin, I discovered my mother-in-law was a loyal adherent of the "European" look. Unfortunately, she had invited us over for lunch and while at the table stretched her hands heavenward exposing the brilliant black locks flourishing within the warm,moist region of her arm pits.
Needless to say, I began to choke on my food as a result, although it could have been the chicken bone lodged in the back of my throat. The bottom line is I couldn't eat another bite nor could I find it within myself to forgive her for the visual assault.
The fact is women are capable of growing hair in all the same places as men, but I don't think this is a feminist plot as much as it is nature's plan. Having said that, there is a difference between women who grow their hair modestly and in good taste, while there are others who like to prove to the world that they are capable of growing a dense mat all over their bodies.
Best wishes and be well - L.R.
I think this base on where you live. People in my country don't like women with long armpit hair. In some countries, guys love them. I personally don't like them. It might because it what I've learned since I was a child.
People have crazy likes. I can't stand a woman with bushy armpits, let alone legs! A woman is meant to be beautiful and smooth. The only place with hair should be the head.
The older you get the more you hate hair except on your head.
Gross...............armpit hair on a women is nasty. Furthermore, it's 10x worse when you goto the waterslide park and some women show it off, to each is own but preference lies with a razor!
very interesting hub, I don't like armpit hair on women.. Ugh!!.. but I do like hair on a man's face..
great hub
I'm really surprised to see how many people could care less whether a woman has armpit hair or not. I personally detest armpit hair period whether it be on a man or a woman. It just seems so unnecessary and I hate how men just let it get all gross and out of control. I mean seriously, if you can braid it then it's time to shave it lol! But that's just me. People should do whatever makes them comfortable. Great and interesting hub!
I know that in many foreign countries, women do not shave. I also know I see it as unattractive, gross and unsanitary....extremely UNfeminine. Go ahead call me a puritanical sexist. No problem. The picture above speaks volumes. That's plain ugly.
I vote to stay with lots of thick, shiny hair on my head ONLY....clean-shaven legs and pits.
It's disgusting and shows a serious lack of hygiene and personal care. If she doesn't take care of her armpit hair she's probably unclean in other areas as well.
I've had mine lasered so I don't grow hair there anymore.
Tend to agree with you Pamela. Never will forget the first sight of girls pulling their tops and pants off at the sea parties in Europe. Some of them were quite proud of their hairy underarms and legs. Made me wish I was back in America with the lady shavers.
My personal opinion is..... It is unattractive, I could not imagine having armpit hair. I remember going to the State Fair when I was 16 and this biker looking woman raised her arms and their was a BUSH under there! Lololo! I could not believe it. But there are some men who like it and it doesn't bother them at all. I believe it all depends on the person. :) Thumbs Up!
It doesn't bother me (I'm a girl) but personally I like keeping them shaven. Not because of society (which really is ass backwards when it comes to stuff like this, haha) but because of hygiene and aesthetics. It just looks better shaven for me. Underarms, legs, and nether regions are shaven. I will NOT touch my arms though, and I've been unfortunate enough to have a bit more "peach fuzz" hair on my stomach and whatnot (I have dark hair so its noticeable while most girls you'd never see it).
My boyfriend, when it comes to body hair, is a werewolf, plain and simple (at 21, imagine that). He's really self conscious about it, and shaves his own underarms, arms, and chest. I hate it when he shaves his arms and chest though, as I think body hair on guys is nice! But I'm very grateful he shaves under his arms :)
Well, in my opinion, the best body part of a woman that attracts the opposite sex is her skin. Is it not?
Isn't it that the more skin revealed, the more the guy appreciates her physical beauty? Conceal some of them, they become less tempting.
That's why Muslim men prefer their wives be totally covered so that no man gets attracted by her.
Better cover a lady's skin with clothes than cover it with hair. It's very unattractive for ladies.
I find Hairy Armpits a huge turn off. In my opinion, Women should not attempt to wear sleeveless in public if they cannot keep the armpits air waxed off.
I like my husband to let himself get really beardy and then shave. I have two men!
I was laughing at the European comments above. I did my senior year of high school as an exchange student in France and at a youth hostel somewhere a girl came up to me in the showers, raised her arm and said, "American!"
I have to say I much preferred her introduction than the one I got later on the beach. I was sitting on the sand with a bunch of girlfriends and a guy came up. He was totally shaved, everywhere. A fact made obvious by our line of sight with us sitting and him standing wearing a transparent yellow banana hammock.
Good times!
I personally don't find armpit hair particularly sexy, but it is natural, then it is beautiful. I do not keep if because of modern etiquette rules, but in older times when there was no razor or wax women had it, and men did love them without any discrimination. And the smell is quite natural.
Rank and vile!
personally i think that women should shave their armpits, cause while some vury strange men might this sexy, i think you should not shave your armpits if you are out to punish your prince charming. and to make it perfect put old spice under your arms, just to top it off
For those of us who don't care either way, I think this is yet another indicator in choosing a partner. If you're open to what is healthy, natural, personal preference, gender equal, etc... it comes through in a lot of ways other than this. A woman who is confident enough to not shave probably is attracted to certain types of people and not others. Vive la difference!
Hey, now! I just happen... Did you know in some cultures, not American, it's just fine to let the hair grow? Some think it is sexy. When I lived in Alaska I let my hair on my legs and armpits grow. It keeps you warm. Ha ha! Now that I am here in Arkansas, I still let the leg hairs grow and armpits. My hair grows slower and less (for me) now that I'm older (55). Some people have shaved their armpit hair and caused cysts to develop in their armpits. If continued to be a problem they have to have surgery and skin grafts done. True story.
I grew up thinking that armpit hair is gross. Yes, whenever I see my dad lift his arms up I go, 'EW! You have hair!' (that's me at age 7). :)
I respect people who believe that armpit hair on women is just fine and normal. I think that they're actually brave to keep it.
But, I'm a fan of hair free armpits!
Hairy armpits are a turn off, but if you can't shave them, then don't wear sleeveless tops.
Hum. Oh Misty, you've set the world on fire with this one. Most comments I've seen on a hub. I like shaved armpits and I like hairy armpits. I find both attractive. But if you asked me a different question, if you ask me if I found it a turn on, then I'd have to say yes. Hope that doesn't sound too kinky
What a unique topic. As a man, I prefer a woman without armpit hair, but is by no means a deal breaker. My preference/opinion is probably the result of seeing most women without armpit hair. It really is a personal choice for the woman and men should accept it.
The only place I accept hair on a woman is on her head. Anywhere else is an absolute NO-NO!
Brilliant hub.
It is definitely NOT common for European woman to have hairy armpits! This is a myth!!! There are as many shaved or "au naturel" woman in Europe as in America in fact anywhere in the world. There are pro's and con's to this topic all over the world. Let's not generalize please!
I didn't read all the comment. Personally I don't like hairy armpits. Voted up, of course. I also pinned it.
I don't like armpit hair so I wax mine off but I wish more people were accepting of it..that way we don't have to hide/shave/wax it so often. One less thing to worry about in our beauty regimen ;D ;D
Ever since I learnt that pubic hair on women was a sign of their sexual maturity and so was seen by Rennaissance artists as 'wrong', or dangerous, or unattractive, I rebelled.
I last shaved my armpits in 1989 after not having done so for a while and it was so uncomfortable I swore I'd never do it again. I do however use hair trimmers to keep it reasonably short. I do shave my legs (when we get a summer) as I like the idea of wearing highheels and strappy sandals and concede that hairy legs and highheels does look odd--probably because high heels are odd!
I was talking to a male friend about how he would feel about having to 'put on a face' before he went out the door--everyday. He looked at me as if I were mad.
I really don't like the trend towards rendering grown women as pre-pubescent children by making them completely shiny and hairless. I think it's a bit sick.
This is quite an interesting read.
i like armpits hair to lick it
I just heard on the radio, that the numbers of bedbugs and pubic lice have increased dramatically in the last 5-10 years in some of our biggest, swishest, cities. One explanation was that pubic hair, acts as an early warning system that alerts you to creeping things 'down there' or I guess in your armpits. I know the hair on my arm has prevented me from being burnt on a couple of occasions--hair folicles are pretty sensitive. If there are rising numbers of utterly nudified young people traveling the world, blissfully unaware that they have tiny bugs crawling around their nether regions, it's no wonder these things are on the rise.
Do we think men should shave their armpits too? They already do their backs and chests and nuts. Clean armpits for men too? I'd like to advocate that men be pressured into spending a minimum twenty minutes every day in the morning looking into the mirror and worrying about whether they look alright. Every. Day.

Every. Day. I can see them really enjoying it, just as women do.
Love it!!! I don't care for women with hairy legs or face or belly, but anywhere else is a major turn on. I'm a beast,and I love female beasts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The lady at the top of this page has very hairy arm pits, just like a man, in fact hairier than some men, I don't think she has ever shaved in her life. My wife is the same, she thinks that shaving is just for men, she likes to stay sexy and natural. Great Hub.
I recently stopped shaving. I don't know why I didn't do it before...I have no visible leg hair on the back of my legs or my whole thighs and sparse blonde hair on the front of them. I also have very downy underarm hair and definitely not as much as a guy. My fiancé isn't sure he is going to like it when he comes home though. I wish women didn't feel obligated to shave and that more men liked it...It seems like such a trivial thing...I saw an unshaven girl playing soccer against another college which was known for their hippie culture, and I was fascinated...Don't find it unattractive at all!
Yes i like armpit hair of girl as sex stimulation i like this
I personally do not care for armpit hair on women. I feel it makes them appear unkempt and not so classy. My boyfriend even shaves his underarms because he sweats excessively and feels that the hair "traps in the funk" but I don't know if I agree...
i think man hair are attracted to the girls and women are looking nice without hair
I love it, IMO real woman shoud have hair on pussy and armpits. Unfortunatelly to see that in polish cities is impossible :-(. When I have oportunity to watch hairy woman I become crazy wild animal :-p.
It's a cultural attitude taught to us. Was a time not too long ago that armpit hair was viewed as natural--because it is. It grown on everyone. But 'there's money in them thar razors and shave creams.' It's an off-shoot of skinny. "We are what we are and we ain't what we ain't." as John Prine sings. What next? Shall we shave everyone's head too as well as armpits of men and women? Maybe it relates to the "Little Boxes" syndrome. C'mon peoples! Can we like who we are and how we look? Next thing you know we'll all be wearing long sleeves and long pants year-round.
My good luck, I have never seen it ever on any ladies, must be horrible.
To each their own, ya know.
I lived in Europe for 8 years.
As long as you don't smell like onions, it's ok by me :)
Honestly, I would be really surpised if someone said they liked it lol
I don't feel like me when i shave. Its perfectly natural. It grows on men and women so I don't see why its become gender specific.
Recently during the warm weather, I noticed quite a few women in sleeveless dresses who did have hairy arm pits, however the majority of women I have seen shave their arm pits, it is up to the women to do what she wants.
I despise underarm fur on my lady and myself. I am a male that thinks armpits are sexy and I know them to be erogenous zones. This is why my lady and I are clean shaven in the axilla and pubic areas. Who, when preforming sex play, wants a mouth full of hair? Actually, clean shaven, post workout, is the best.
To weinerdog, I understand you despising women who have 'underarm fur' but why men as well, I would never dream of shaving under my arms, I do shave my face, what makes the difference between a man and a women is hair, hair is not dirty, I clean myself every day, including under my arms, I have never been accused of BO.
i love pit hair! i don't shave mine, i'd be so upset if i lost it :(
and as for body odor "problems" well, i tend to like my own smell so it's not a "problem" for me.
wish my girl had some, but she had laser hair removal years before we got together ;)
The way I see it, if men can walk around with armpit hair then women can, too. If you feel like shaving, shave. If you don't, don't! It's really that simple.
Personally, I find the concept of femininity and masculinity to be flawed. They're socially constructed. If females weren't meant to have armpit hair, we wouldn't be growing it. Whether or not you remove the hair from your body has no bearing whatsoever on how much of a man or how much of a woman you are. I feel sorry for those that remove the hair from their body for the sole purpose of attracting someone, or because society dictates that they should - they should be free enough from social constructs to make their own decisions.
But what is "attractive" varies from culture to culture, from person to person - it isn't something set in stone, and not "every woman" cares about whether or not they are viewed as conventionally physically attractive. The "to shave or not to shave" issue truly comes down to a matter of opinion - general, sweeping statements just don't work here.
I don't believe that anything can be decided based on opinions - all you have are a group of opinions (which can neither be right nor wrong), and the most you can do is determine what the majority of people who answer felt.
Regardless, it was certainly an interesting hub and it was nice discussing & learning how you felt on the matter :) Take care!
Hello mistyhorizon2003, l Have been looking an opinion polls regarding arm pit hair on women, 20% keeps coming up in all these polls, 20% men like women with hair, 80% don't, strangely enough, its the same with women, about 20% of women say they have left there arm pit hair to nature, of course that means that 80% shave, but it of course varies from country to country.
Hi mistyhorizon2003, Guernsey, a lovely island to live, yes if a man is lucky and likes a women unshaved and meets her, say on a beach or a dance no problem, but if she refuses to shave and he dumps her, I think that is a bit shallow of him to do that. The women might have a lot of problems if she did shave, medical reasons such as red spots developing, so she prefers to just leave the hair alone, quite honestly all she needs to do is wear a short sleeve dress or top than a sleeveless dress or tank top, out of sight, out of mind.
Women that don't shave are more in tune with reality therefore their personality seems more intelligent. They understand how much shaving underarm hair stresses the lymph node system. Love natural women. When in the company of a women that does not shave I am comfortable feeling like I am with a woman than a prepubescent teen.
O come on Gundar, to suggest that women who don't shave under arms are more intelligent and in tune with reality is talking nonsense, I agree that they probably have strong personalities and what you call the 'lymph node system'. It is a brave women who goes against the norm and stays natural, but I think she is taking a chance, as most men would eventually notice that she does not shave these parts of her. I can understand you thinking that a women who shaves her pit hair is like a prepubescent teen, but to me that applies to other parts of her body, not under her arms.
Hello, I like this hub so much mistyhorizon2003, don't see many women in tank tops or in a sleeveless dress this not so beautiful wet rainy UK summer!! I notice the result of your opinion poll shows a surprising amount saying they think under arm hair on a woman is attractive, almost half and half. Personally I think it is unattractive, but dare I say it, looks quite sexy on SOME women, not all, if it had just been women who voted the result would have been 99% unattractive.

In my case, I am an American male who's attracted to armpit hair on women. That's part of the reason my wife and I started dating in the first place, as she hates shaving with a passion. But, I do see the point made above. I was personally curious as to whether I was in the minority, but the polls on here are likely skewed. While I've seen my share of women who don't shave - whether at the mall or the beach - the ratio probably is more like 90/10 against. So, while I may be strange in the current cultural climate, the fact is that we all come with body hair, and the whole shaving phenomenon hasn't been around that long - perhaps with a few notable exceptions in antiquity.
Mistyhorizon, I have stood in shopping centre's and high streets, but I would not dare ask any women that. But I have observed, that is looked with the corner of my eye discreetly to see if any women does have unshaved pits. The 90/10 against is correct, the vast majority of women do shave their arm pits
Like weylund, my wife is one who has never shaved her arm pit hairs, she is attractive and sexy, not fat or anything like that, she simply thinks that shaving is for men and thinks that the hair is there for a purpose like you wife does.
Sorry mistyhorizon I made a spelling mistake, I usually check before posting, but that one got away, I think I meant to say that "my wife has always thought that arm pit hair was on a woman for a purpose" I was actually agreeing with WEYLUND'S wife, that is the post dated 10 days ago from when I am writing this now 29-07-2012. It was weylund who I was agreeing with, HIS wife does not shave either.
All body hair is abhorrent to me! Especially hairy backs and moustaches!
I'm sorry, I'm a woman, but since I wanted to see the result, i contributed by voting. Though in the 2 minutes of voting, I tried to be as much of a man as possible. lol.
Im surprise some men like armpit hair. LOLS
I know right? And it's a high number too. I thought I'd be at zero or a low low loowwww number. The world never ceases to amaze me. God really did make a woman for every man. Even a very very hairy growing armpit lady needs loving.
Except hairs on chest,beard and mustaches on upper lip of males, the rest of all body hair of either human gender from childhood to adulthood, is truly 'feminine' in character since both male and female babies are delivered by women only. Just as vegetation to the earth, hairs as matrixed in various textures and structures are natural to women and humanity they reproduce and sustain.
While thanking your apt suggestion, we observe presently increasing role of women in many fields of human services apart from the fundamental procreative motherhood ordained by natural creation. Our intellect and intelligence relate to dynamic characteristics of human mind,which in itself is created to as part of human species. As a rough comparison we can relate human brain with CPU computer hardware which rational in construction to almost all human species. The operative user programs,however vary according to individual characteristics of different people and cannot be rationally defined. Many continental Europeans are opinionated to take women wearing pit hair as part of natural order and thus neutral in reaction with no hatred or appreciation. While rest of all living species live as physically created, only human minds are prompted repeatedly to consider what is aesthetic and beautiful what is ugly and abhorring. Just as a majority vote of UNESCO reps of all member nations cannot wishfully change the gravitational pull of the earth, the same naturally patented human structures are basically programed and created symbolic to human species. Tender minds of young children reaching puberty are hate instilled to consider what is beautiful and what is ugly while all other species may entertain jealousy for food but never hate of their physical forms.
Interesting article. Put me down for against., especially after looking at the woman in the photo at the top of your hub. I threw up in my mouth a little.
I an extremely thankful for the web reference. Indeed I am not aware of it and never intended copying anyone's ideas. as you truly observe , we have to go along the stream of life and live happily in one's own choice noting the fact that only human beings are possessed with a sense of shame.
Hello Mistyhorizon, Almorr here, just clicked on that site "elsewhere.org"and all I get is what looks like a university lecture on "The Futility of Consensus Marxist Capitalism" what on earth that has to do with arm pit hair on women is beyond belief. Perhaps that guy Sastry M is a computer program or programer, I don't know. I am sure he is using one of those 'auto spun comment generators'.
I have been looking at the Olympics on my HD television and have not seen any of the woman athletics from over 300 countries with arm pit hair, even many of the men shave under their arms, not a good sign for hair fans.
What an interesting Hub. I agree with other commenters that, were it not for whoever had the smarts to invent the honed rock/razor/shaver, we'd all of us humans be as hairy as the mythical Yeti, (and quite possibly engaged in the pursuit of some mythical human-like creature allegedly distinguishable by the total absence of full-bodied hirsuteness). Such is the nature of our fickleness...
However, I digress. On the topic at hand (well, I hope not actually, as that's often a sign of something completely different, particularly amongst members of the nautical services, both merchant and military), I must say that my personal predeliction is for a woman to sport a range of follicular options. I like long lustrous hair, but only on heads, not arms, armpits, upper lips, noses, ears, backs, legs - and definitely not feet. Elsewhere, variety, as is so often the case, can add the spice on which an enjoyable life depends. Especially an enjoyable sex life. But I do admit that there are certain 'formes' or consistencies that if absent, would unnnerve me. For instance, I'd be put off by an encounter with a woman sporting (or not, if you get my drift) a full Brazilian, but who compensated for such with a proverbial rainforest of growth in her armpits. Or any of those other body areas that fall within my own personal classification of 'verboten'.
The 'elsewhere' to which I refer is of course the key area of a woman's external anatomical features where variety can be, and often is expressed in the choice of individual follicular fashion. And attractive they all are, pleasing to the eye of any man, and not a few women, from total hairlessness through the arrowhead, the landing strip, the close but not prickly trim, et al.. I personally draw the line on braiding, but that may just be me..
This brings me to an aspect that has not been canvassed in your article nor in any of the comments as far as I can see. That being the matter of tactility. I'd suggest that although (shallow creatures that we are) most opinions expressed here relate solely to the visual perspective of hair in all the wrong places, there are also wonderfully tactile surprises and delights available to us, especially in the just mentioned area of the pubis... Many a man has experienced the thrill of discovery after a sustained effort at putting his hand where his eyes have not yet been, when the furry covering, or indeed absence of such, reveals its particular textural qualities, and through its warmth and (ed; cut that part) hints at the promise of what may be yet to come.... It's not called the furry magnet for nothing, after all.
In closing, I am reminded of the story from the 60's of the young couple parked in Lovers Lane. Just as the young man's inquisitive hand reached the destination referred to above, a police car pulled into the lane, catching the lovers in the sweep of its headlights. "Shit" he exclaimed,"Fuzz." To which the young lady responded. Well, what were you expecting? A ponytail?"
(Disclaimer: Although it may well appear so, this comment was not generated by the Postmodernism Generator. All opinions expressed are my own.)
I say to each his own. If you like armpit hair , so be it. Find a woman (I know of none) who have it. I personally think it is a sign of laziness on the womans part. But I won't knock someone who desires it.
I feel armpit hair make women unattractive. But on the whole a good Hub. You have presented you case well and it shows.
this is (as i always find with your hubs) a good one-- and while I'm not for armpit hair on women as many have said to each their own. I suppose it's a personal taste, but I think it's all a part of trying to be the best you can be, and it doesn't show you are at your "best" (at least to me) if you don't try to keep looking as good as you can be.
I personally can't see myself shaving my armpit hair because it must be itchy and unpleasant to do that. So if I as a man don't feel the need or impulsion to shave my under arms, why should a woman? I've never seen the whole need for bikini area shaving either. Live and let live, says I.
I think women should shave their armpits....even though it is natural to have arm hair..its looks disgusting when women wear tops that expose their arm pit's hair..imagine ppl showing their bikini hair...Ummm digusting...some ppl dont want to see that so why would others want to show it ....but I guess it turns some ppl on...i just don't like...but "To each its own"...good hub...
Hello Mistyhorizon, I am sure you don't mind if a man like me has never shaved any hairs off his body ever, apart form face, but do you think like I think that apart from some athletes such as professional cyclists and swimmers, any other men that do that are just plain effeminate or just plain sissy, I know that I am probably being a bit harsh as I am of, well the older generation, in the 70's and 80's men who shaved anything apart from face were actually considered 'queer', I know that attitudes have moved on, but I still think that apart from sportsmen, men who shave their body hair off are a bit strange to say the least.
kind regards
Well said Cindy, my full first name is Alan, a year ago my son gave me a computer and told me to use the name AlMorr, anyway you should be proud that you are married to what I call 'a real man' , he sounds to be a nice guy ,nothing to be ashamed of in a man having a hairy back, I also have back hair and very hairy shoulders, chest, arms and legs, which by the way I have never waxed or trimmed. I have never been ashamed of my body hair since it started growing when I was in my early teens, I have had quite a few comments, at least people notice it.
Yes you have answered my question fully.
Kind regards
Alan from Scotland
Hi Cindy, I also correspond with another Hubber, call 'Strictlydating' she is from Australia ,if you type in "he shaved everything" on the huppage website and scroll down to the hub to 'about 7 months ago' the hub starts "Like Steven" from then onwards I tell striktlydating all about myself, it gets to the point further down that I feel that I have hijacked her page because some young men are actually asking ME questions about hair growth on their chests, however striktlydating congratulates me on contributing on her hub in advising these young men on a mans point of view rather than hers or a woman's in general. You and striklydating are my favorite people that I like corresponding with.
i love to armpti hiar it is looks very sexy wow
triple threat - hairy pits, large breasts and rolls of fat - all have odor.
Hi there, I am wondering about the point system here, I notice that 2 weeks ago I was a Level 1 Commenter against my name, others as much a Level 7, is it to do with the quality or quantity of the posts on the hub pages Hope you are keeping well Cindy
Alan from Scotland
Thank you Cindy for that reply.
Hi friends Rituu here, Interesting Hub , How can 1 love armpit hairs ? LOL , i just hate armpit hairs , i don't know how some people find it sexy ? Its very uncomfortable with those hairs, even my boy hates it .
Good Hub , Voted up.
Yes you are right mistyhorizon2003.
Virtually nobody seems to care about my armpit hair, but I'm too afraid of shaving it off. Doing so isn't worth the irritation I'd receive from that. Some people say that having it is sexy, but I'm a bit on the hair being a turnoff crowd.
Hey, Linda McCartney was a hairy lady (of course, her armpits were no exception). But Paul fell for her -- it was just beyond physical appearance. Or is it that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, maybe Paul was turned on by that hairiness.
Great hub. i'll vote this up. :)
lols. not a good idea to let your armpit hair grow. keep on shaving or even waxing will work. women are not advisable to have a armpit hair, not desirable neither.
Hi Cindy Alan here to just tell you that as you know the summer in the UK has not been very good this year, however, in the couple of days that is was sunny, I saw a lot of women in sleeveless tank top vests and dresses. I did not see one lady with hairy arm pits. When I look at women, its with the corner of my eye, I don't know if I should be disappointed or not, though I think that you will be pleased with my observations. I think it depends on the women, if she has a light covering of hair OK, but the one at the top of the page is a bit too hairy, even for my liking.
Hello Cindy, there is a difference between a woman not shaving her arm pit hair, say for 3 days and a man not shaving his face for that length of time. I have never put it to the test regarding my under arm hair or anywhere else on my body, never waxed or trimmed a hair ever, but I did let my 'bristle hair' on my face grow for 3 days about a year ago to find out how fast I could maybe grow a beard, the bristles did grow quite quickly but it was so rough, spiky and uncomfortable that I said to myself 'never again', OK I could grow a thick beard in a month, but I am not going to, I am hairy enough elsewhere, so I am clean shaved, I feel better that way, have to shave at least once a day to keep things tidy.
Regards to you and your husband
Alan from Scotland.
Oh no! This smelly discussion is still ongoing. :-)
Yes Cindy, I am well, thank you, you are so correct in saying that men with beards and moustaches can be unhygienic, that's why I shave my moustache and do NOT grow a beard. I have looked at the latest count with your poll I notice that there is a 50 / 50 split in the answer to the question:- do you think women with arm pit hair are attractive?, interesting.
Good day
it is my choice place. good hub. i enjoy shaving it too.
I really think it is to a big part a matter of where and how you grow up. I grew up in Germany, totally normal to have underarm hair, nobody even thinks about it. And deodorant is used just the same and does the same. I came here and learned to shave it. Not for one second I ever thought about underarm hair being sexy or not - cannot relate to it in terms of being sexy or not. Yet, I have to make one statement - when a woman has a lot of underarm hair it looks better to either minimize it or shave it completely.
it is one of the key stimulating center. i like natural body odor. deodorants give artificial feeling. it is husbands choice. i like shaving too. it is more interesting. women should grow it and get it shaved by husband. good hub.
THE HAIR IS PICTURE IS ARTIFICIAL MAKE UP, yet i am fan of it.
true, why should women hesitate to lift arm freely, one can not have daily shave, growth rate is more, smooth arm pit can not be maintained regularly, we like many stimulating centers, but hesitate to express due to false decency. i will sincerely shave if some woman want . with ou having any dirty thought in mind. because i love to do it. i am free and frank. woman can not handle razor in such a complicated area. men are very expertise d. good hub.
I have to say NO armpit hair please...and thank you.
Interesting Hub...
Those armpits look totally GROSS!
Hi Misty, I voted in previous polls. I just did the 3rd question!
I personally believe that armpit hair on women especially when wearing sleeveless clothes is very unattractive to look at.
Hi Cindy, I also have been trying to translate what yssubramanyam means in that post, I have read it several times, I think she means that in both places, under arms and 'down there' it is OK for a woman just to leave things to nature.
I have been corresponding with a man from Cleveland Ohio, he has a hub on hubpages with the heading ""Run its hairy arm guy"", his name is Rickzimmerman. He draws cartoons about all sorts of things to do with hair, I mentioned this hub and the one to Australia, he wrote back saying that he would try a cartoon of some woman with hairy arm pits, I could not help laughing when he said that 'I have my own hair net-work' LOL Yes all those letters about hair, I suppose I do, its just Cindy that I have been fascinated by body hair since I myself became hairy in my teens.
Kind regards to you and your husband
Alan from Rainy Scotland
What is important is the woman herself, isn't it ? Her looks, her personality, the way she carries herself, the interest of her conversation, etc...If she lets her armpit hair grow, there is probably some reason behind it. If it grosses you out, just walk away. If it doesn't, then this is not an issue. In any case, it is extremely rare, these days to see a woman with armpit hair, even in Europe. And remember that there was a time when every woman had armpit hair, even in the US, the same way there was a time guys didn't show their underwear
OK Mistyhorizon, let me ask you this : there is a fairly new trend which consists of men removing hair on their chest. Does that mean that in let's say 20 years it will be considered as a lack of personal hygiene for a man to have hair on his chest, when it's been that way forever until recently. I am not being an advocate of armpit hair for women, I am merely saying that if I met a woman interesting enough to be a potential partner, armpit hair wouldn't be a big issue for me. In other words, I would never let Mrs Right get away because she has armpit hair, because it wouldn't outweigh her qualities in my opinion. In the most extreme case, if it would eventually bother me, I would try to tactfully bring up the subject, and we could work on a compromise lol, the last time I checked, that was the way relationships worked. Change of subject :What kind of weather do you currently have in Guernsey ?
Cheers !
Hi there, totally agree about the weather Cindy
Still trying to work out the translation of that letter from India.
Alan here, I think the translation of the lady from India is, (I've been up all night working it out LOL ) She feels she is free to shave or not too shave under her arms, she feels more 'decent' in shaving than not shaving , well Cindy I think that is what she means.
i followed the subject. however i love this hub.
i love it
Cindy, I was just joking about spending all night working out that letter, I usually go to bed at about 1030pm. I have been reading some of your other posts on various subjects, I notice that your mother was a great singer, and you sing a little as well, that's wonderful, I am also very musical, I enjoy particularly classical music, Mozart, Beethoven, etc. There is a program on French radio called Crossroads Lodeon, I have been listening to that program for many years on Long Wave, but now I have a Internet Radio and can hear it on chrystal clear stereo, great music on it.
A very interesting hub. I personally don't like armpit hair on women or men. Although if armpit hair contributes to smell then that would mean an awful lot of smelly men around. For me it's just unsightly and the same for chest hair on men.
This is a very interesting hub with some brilliant comments. I personally don't like to have under arm hair and I shave once a fortnight but I'm fairly lucky in that it takes a very very long time to grow anything there. As for hair on men, that's fine but if then grow long hair anywhere I prefer it to be trimmed just to keep everything manageable.
Cindy, this hub is like a train wreck. It's horrible to look at, but I can't turn away! Bravo!
the subject plays very important role in partnership. lovely hub.
Last week one of my students said, "Mrs. Trotter, we need to talk about hygiene in this class." There is one really nice kid who was oblivious to the whole thing. Everyone knew it was him. I don't know whether or not he has armpit hair. I would always be uncomfortable with trees growing from my pits.
Misty, I'm going to ask his counselor to speak to him. He might be embarrassed if I talk to him because he will no the whole class knows. However, it could be the same if the counselor talks to him. The school nurse use to handle these things until our budget was cut. Porque me?
Nice post. I like to consider myself progressive and open-minded, but I guess I'm fooling myself. No matter how hard I try I can't seem to embrace the idea of armpit hair on women.
every woman has her own thing and some like to shave while others are natural
I like mid to short length hair because there are more styles to try, when i want longer hair I can get a weave lol! personal hair is a choice. I shave my underarms but not as often in the winter because who is gonna see it.
Cats and dogs are a lot cuter with underarm fur. Women less so.
Enjoyed the page, though.
I personally don't get it. I clicked on the title of the article because I was interested in the argument, but as soon as I saw the picture above, I was immediately turned off. I really can't say why, I just am. And, I'm a guy who thinks some woman can really pull off having a bald head (though not my preference).
I do have a question for women who like/have hairy armpits: Sooooo, what...would you groom the pits still? Fix them up a little? Would it add to the two hours spent getting ready already? Just some questions for fun, not to be taken as serious pokes or anything.
I was shocked at the results of you polls. Arm pit hair can hold onto bacteria that can cause odor. I respect a womans right not to shave; however, I, myself would not envoke that right.
the hub mobilized a lot. what a significance the armpit plays? it deserves research. good hub.
Great idea for a hub, ever body has an opinion it seems including me, ladies shave those arm pits and legs but grow your hair long and add ribbons and bows or braids, pony tails and a baseball cap.
Hi Cindy, another interesting letter from our friend in India, yssubramanyam. I have a very hairy neck, I usually shave it every 2 weeks between going to the hairdresser every 2 months, but because of the cold weather I have decided just to let the neck hair grow out until I go to the hairdresser at the beginning of December, by then the fuzz hairs will be very thick and she will have to work for her money, in fact as it is December I will give her a Xmas tip. I hope you and your husband are keeping well and looking forward to Christmas, I notice already some of the shops have their Xmas decorations up
hairs are like antennas. very sensitive in stimulating..neat shave is for appearance, hair is to ..
lovely hub..i like all comments. it took me to past..
Honestly for me I consider it a turn off to have hair there simply because of the discomfort and irritation I find from having hair there. I dislike the feeling and that is why I choose to shave/wax.
Armpit hair on a woman would be a definite turn off for me. I don't even like my own armpit hair.
I must just be a sicko, I like armpit hair on women, facial hair on men, and occasionally really dig the smell of body oder! lol
excellent, Gillette, turbo is very goo, soft and smooth...this arm pit legendary is very interesting..
I think the smell reminds me of the inner animal-beast part of our human sexuality... 'Rooarrr!'
Hi Cindy, I cannot say that I like the smell of under the arms the least bit, when I have been out a cycle run I always when I get home use body spray under them and wash them to stop people saying that I have BO, I don't think it would make any difference if I shaved off the hairs, the smell would still be there.
Culturally unexpected when I see this on women on the beaches in lake district in Northern Italy...probably a choice which I will not judge..just personally find it unattractive..the Hub is good as you present the subject very well with objectivity well done..thank you
Reading this article was my first real laugh on hubpages. informational,organized,and makes me think about dating girls with hairy armpits. What could be better then this. : )
odor/smell is common to all human. it differs based on water intake, type of food besides genetic follow quality. its importance during youth plays very stimulating role. it is called stink in the later part of life by partner. i appreciate your recommended brand.
i love all participants views. good subject. i wish many more from you.
Hello Cindy, I am sorry that I have not logged in to your hub for 3 days, so busy reading about Hurricane Sandy in the USA, but it did remind me of during the summer when I wore only shorts on a windy day, some people commented about how hairy I was, the wind was blowing my chest and shoulder hair about like long grass in a field or garden, quite comical.
Keep well
good views by contributors. i like it.
i admire..i love it..
i always involve in my activity. certain matters cannot be expressed face to face. it is a very gifted podium to express our hidden facts in life. there are many more essential matters to discuss and clear our minds. good show.
Hello Cindy, it seems to have gone a bit quite now, so I thought I would tell you about a party I was at many years ago at New Year. One of the girls suggested that us guys should strip off down to our waist to see who had the hairiest chest, OK I thought, I could be the winner here, but I told this girl, 'you must count all the hairs on the men's chest, she agreed. So one by one we took our cloths off, one man had no hairs at all, a few had about 10 hairs, when I took my cloths off, she gasped, ' O my goodness, I'll never be able to count all that lot, your like a werewolf', I told her to start counting the hairs on my chest' , of course she got to a 100 and gave up, I was declared the winner. Later in the evening she got a bit drunk and asked to see how hairy I was '"down there" I of course refused.
Hope you and your husband are keeping well
Kind regards,
Alan from Scotland
Cindy, what a coincidence, my daughter Gillian is expecting her first baby in December and she has given me her two cats to look after while she and her husband get ready for the arrival of her baby girl, I just hope I do not get any allergy from her cats, so far OK, I do have a cat of my own, she is called Kitty and is 17 years old, that's quite old for a cat, but since my wife died nearly 3 years ago, I look after Kitty very well indeed. I am sure you will get over your allergy quickly.
Thanks Cindy, "Breaking News" my daughter and my son in law miss their cats so much that after only 3 days away my son in law came and took the cats back home, so I now only have my own cat to look after. See these two cats actually woke me up in the middle of the night, so with them away back home I will now get a good nights sleep.

I am afraid it isn't just my opinion 'Hairy', and most men appear to find these a huge turn off and the 'smell of a woman's moist armpits on a hot day' is also known as BO, (Body Odour, not pleasant).
I honestly don't see the connection between a 'confident intelligent woman' and this being more likely with 'Body hair' nor is there any evidence to link the two together that I am aware of!
I can always add a poll to this article if you want proof of the fact most men dislike hairy armpits on a woman. Give it a couple of months and I think you will see the results prove the point.
Have you now changed your opinion.
You will see from your own poll that most men do not object to a woman leaving armpit hair alone and most would not be put off dating a woman displaying unshaven armpits.
A hairy woman is more likely to be respected by men than other women
OMG! The smelly pit discussion still lives!!!
taste differs..but reality never fluctuates, we must accept woman in any state to taste..
good hub..
My underarm hair is gorgeous! Even though my hair in general is dark, my underarm hair is sparse and golden. I have enough confidence in myself to leave my underarms fuzzy, and I really don't care what anyone else thinks about it. Personally, I think the full-on pit hair is much more attractive than that awful stubble that grows in minutes after shaving. Plus I'm lazy, and the endless shaving of that hair is not worth my time. And you know what? My husband doesn't care; as it turns out, having underarm hair doesn't detract from the fact that I have a working vagina.
I for one just think girls with armpit hair are comical. If mine ever gets a little longer I just think it's hilarious ;p
My goodness me, after a little gap Cindy things are looking funny, between a "working vagina", the mind boggles and girls with hairy arm pits being "comical", that's made my day, no joking my daughter is about to give birth any day now, that means she will have to get that dreaded 'shave' down there, I remember when my late wife gave birth to my daughter 34 years ago it was horrible when we restarted you know what for the next couple of weeks, it was like making love to a hedgehog. By the way I put up my Christmas tree on Tuesday.
Hope you are keeping well
Alan in Scotland.
we must live according to our choice. i love it for my self. good efforts.
i keep following till finals..
good show..
You will remember you started the poll to try to prove to me than men find women,s armpit hair to be disgusting.
I trust that you now find men to be much more mature than you thought and a small majority prefer women with armpit hair and a majority would not be put off having relationship with woman displaying her armpit hair
Do you realise you are in a minority. Join the hairy women,Cindy and through away the razers
hmm...well I prefer to shave my arm pits. lol I think just from being around guys I know the deodarant sticks to their armpit hair and clumps up. Also when it wears off it stinks! lol So I imagine even being a girl it is the same thing. lol
You have certainly stirred up a few opinions here, with such a seemingly simple question. The feminist side of me wants to shout out "Hair is natural, what's wrong with it? How dare you even question this?" However, the vain side of me still wants to have smooth hairless armpits! I like to think of it as a personal choice, along with how to do our hair, what to wear etc., rather than it being a result of conforming to social stereotypes.
I have had boyfriends who weren't at all bothered by it, but I prefer the clean shaven look myself :)
Hello Cindy, my daughter gave birth to a 6lb baby girl on 20th December. May I wish you and your husband a very Merry Christmas and all the best for 2013, also, a very happy holiday season to everyone who writes to you on your different posts as well.
Regards Alan from Glasgow Scotland
Hello Cindy, I hope you had a wonderful Christmas, I had, I saw my new grand-daughter, Sophie on Christmas Day and spent the rest of Christmas day and night at my sons and other grand-daughter's house. My sons 4 year old daughter is called Emily, she got a new bike, my sons wife is expecting her 2nd baby next May.
husband must enjoy in maintaining it smooth..it is one of the best stimulating and intimate play..i love and like this hub..nothing is bad between partners.
Happy New Year to you Cindy and all your readers in the UK, France, Germany and Spain
Bonne Annee
Frohes Neus Jahr
Feliz Ano Nuevd
Can't stand it and I wish it wouldn't grow back lol, but that's just me! Great hub, stirred up quite the conversation in the comments!
Hello Cindy. interesting point from Saloca wishing hair would not grow back, I sometimes wish the hair on the back of my neck would not grow back so quickly, I have to use my shaver every fortnight to shave the hair off, otherwise I just get so uncomfortable with it there, just one of the drawbacks for us hairy men. You have already said in your post that you do not mind a man with hairy arm pits, as long as he washes and cleans his arm pits regularly.
I honestly find it quite disturbing and a bit disgusting (even though it is natural).
I agree with the comment about it showing a lack of hygiene but it does not only show a lack of hygiene, it also shows serious laziness (In my opinion).
In my country, the United States of North America, there are no armpit hair women. Or if there are, thankfully, I have never encountered one !
As a woman and looking at other women, I prefer hairless. I'm so against body hair I won't even have it on my forearms! Haha. Interesting read!
Hi, I think armpit hair is revolting! lol! I know its natural but it looks awful especially if a women wears a sleeveless dress, but I do see the merits of it, as long as its covered up!
I love hairy women..
That's one thing that I dislike most seeing women with armfit hair. it is awkward for me...
every human mind is a laboratory. how one enjoys is based on state of mind. topic is interesting. beauty is beauty, woman is beautiful at all cost. no doubt..armpit hair has got nothing to do. it is purposeful and meaning ful.
Hi Cindy, yssubramanyam our friend in India means that women who have armpit hair are beautiful and natural, I hope you are keeping well. I just discovered a Internet site called "The Hairy Pit Club" now ladies in this club all have stopped shaving in the last couple of months or years and they all say that they feel 'liberated' 'free' and most are never going to shave again, I know you do not agree with any of them, some of the ladies look quite sexy, others as you would say "disgusting" but that common theme of freedom and liberty runs right through that particular hub, even a lot of younger women, teenagers say the same thing that they have been too much taken in by all the grooming ads and just want to be like men and be natural, interesting thoughts from those mainly younger ladies.
men are used to clean armpits, why do they like bushy hair on other area? it is made fancy by woman, the practice must be left to independent minds alone. please make it clear regarding translation. it is not clear to me. it is well Indianian English. i love..
Yes, the dog in the picture is a girl, she's the dog of my ex-gf who was in fact hairy.. The dog's name was Mila after the town "Milagro" in New Mexico. The picture was taken on the Valle Grande, behind the Los Alamos, Ski Hill. She ended up marrying a chinese guy, and chinese people tend to be quite hairy, at least I've heard this is true of the southern Chinese. Two Chinese grad students told me this, so it must be a stereotype that is perpetuated in China.
Hi Cindy not much happening on your post, but I hope you are keeping nice and warm, just watching a Webcam of Guernsey at 5.20pm Monday, not the weather for wearing sleeveless dresses, blowing a blizzard.
I hope you are safe and WARM
Regards Alan
From a cold but sunny
i will not cause any inconvenience. thanks for advise. i like your view.
That's great Cindy I hope you enjoy your holiday in Tenerife. My son gave me a Smartphone recently and I have been taking photo's with it, some of them are on my Facebook Page, that's at email@example.com That is where you will see them. Once again have a great holiday, hope the snow melts soon
i want keep aside the likes and dislikes of men. it is natural and woman are at their liberty to maintain their hair according to their fancy as well the mind set of partner. how ever i insist upon natural beauty and stimulating aroma of it. i appreciate your way of articulation, and inculcating regarding my above mentioned comment. wish you good day. i love to visit to read further comments.
I found this very interesting. I personally don't opt to leave my armpit hair where it grows but I have never given much thought to others who have no problem with nature's way with armpits.
i express my pleasure in sharing the view of many wise people. very much convinced with above comments. thanks to writer.
every husband must undertake the duty of maintenance. let our partner enjoy the sharing of pleasure. good hub.
should a girl be natural down below or do you shave. I have never shaved or trimmed pubic area so I am completely natural.
O Come on everyone, can you not read, Mistyhorizon is having a well deserved holiday in Tenerife, I have sad news for her but I am not writing to her until she comes back from that well deserved holiday.
Alan from UK
it matters a lot to models, how ever it my personal choice..i love being natural..

Do you allow hair to grow in places only your husband can see?
good. it is choice of individual, feminism very much enhances the intimacy..it the only capturing tool in the hands of a woman. nice hub.
Hi Cindy, its just that my cat Oscar died so I am a bit sad, she was 18 or about that, had a long life, I am OK, you were a vet some time ago, not too many cats live that long but you said that you knew a cat that was 23, I read that the record for a cat living was 33, wow, enjoy the rest of your holiday.
Thank you Cindy
Even in the 70s when women were making a statement by letting their leg and underarm hair grow unchallenged, it never appealed to me.
The photo at the top of your hub is really scarey!! :)
Hi Cindy, Alan here, not much going on just now, I have not forgotten you, nothing much to report regarding the word 'hair'. My sons Chinese wife will soon be giving birth, not sure if its a girl or boy, that will be my 3rd grandchild. Hope you and your husband are keeping well
Alan in Scotland
Hi Cindy, it is an exciting time for me, my daughter in law, that's my son's Chinese wife gave birth to a baby girl on 27th May, they have named her Olivia and my sister gave me a cat, she is 8 years old, her name is Eeshane, a rather unusual name but I am not changing it, hope you are keeping well

my mom has armpit hairs and so do I and my daughter. We tried to shave them but the hair grows even coarser and darker. We have armpit odor which smells bad so we shave them often. Tried many cosmetics and cream stuff to remove but failed. Hence, we just pretend that our armpit hairs are essential to make ourselves unique !
Armpit hair is required for both men and women. There is no need of shaving the hairyarmpit. If we start shaving them, it will start growing fastly. Women with hairy armpit really looks more attractive and sexy. I want to view more hairypit women photos. Can I see this?
I find armpit hair on women disgusting, it causes a bad smell, and make a bad reputation for a woman. We're living in a century when we do have so many option how to remove it and look fascinating.
thanks for your insight.
Hello Cindy, your friend from Scotland, I hope you are enjoying the lovely summer of 2013, beautiful weather we are having here in Scotland, sometimes it is a bit too hot, 28c is way above the normal for Scotland. However, all the ladies I have seen have been wearing sleeveless dresses and tank tops, and to be honest (you will like this) I have not seen one woman with hairy arm pits, all the ladies I have seen have NO hair under there arms, I bet that is good news for you. I hope you and your husband are enjoying the good weather as well
Probably the reason arm pits are so smelly if hairy is that the hair increases the surface area and the sweat that runs into it, dissipates heat when the breeze blows through it.. So if you used underarm deoderant...
In that case Cindy do you think men should shave their arm pit hair? As you know I do a lot of cycling, I will admit that there is that usual smell from them when I get home, I ALWAYS wash and use deoderant when I get home. Being a man I do have hairy arm pits, but as you have stated in previous posts that is OK for a man, as long as he washes and cleans them, which I always do. Do you think men should actually shave the hair off?
Hi Cindy, thank you for your reply, like the way you say 'it takes away a man's masculinity' I do have very hairy arm pits, shoulders, legs, chest, etc, I like to think I am masculine. Interesting that you say the BO problem seems to rear its ugly head more on women with hairy arm pits more than men.
I just hope you solved the problem of your potatoes and that prevented them from having potato blight.
Kind regards to you
My first experience of withnessing a female with underarm hair was in Italy, She was walking down the street or should I say she walked with the kind of strut that catches ones eye, she was obviously in love and as she reached her arms upward to embrace her man she looked into his soul as she wispered to him, as I noticed her beauty and the beauty of the moment I noticed her arm pit hair, when she put her arms down she had some of her arm hair exposed against her skin and fabric of her crisp blouse, till this day it is a turn on of a beautiful moment in life. one that is etched in my mind forever, and if you stop for the moment and noticed the scent of your woman or mate you will recognize and identify with fragrances that represent their day. I love connecting with my woman and deeply inhaling her fragrance of her day. the hair is just a bonus. highten your conciousness. what I have learn is things that turn us off just turn us off, no matter of the story or circumstance.
"Any man refusing a date with a girl because she displays hairy pits is immature and does not deserve a girlfriend"
Honestly, that's a pretty dumb statement. I know you (the author) said that you don't agree with all the statements and hopefully that is one of them.
Personally I hate armpit hair on a woman and am disgusted to see it. I like a little pubic hair, rather than the hairless look. But don't like too much hair.
It all comes down to personal preference. I was with a woman for 10 months that hated armpit hair on guys. I didn't see the problem with it, but I loved her and wanted her to be happy with my image, so I shaved it. She also didn't like leg hair, but I put that idea down real fast. I don't have thick hair anywhere, so she dealt with it. But honestly, if she had armpit hair, I wouldn't have gone out with her.
After a while in dating or a relationship, almost everything comes down to personality rather than looks. But looks still play a part. If I totally let myself go, I know my current gf would still love me, but I doubt she would have much physical attraction towards me. I love her so I want to be good and look good for her.
Again, it all comes down to personal preference and I don't think anyone with a fair amount of intelligence can make such a bold (and idiotic) statement as the one above.
Hi Cindy, not been in contact with you for a few months now, I hope the show went well and your potatoes won a prize. If any female had asked me when I was younger to shave anything off my body, apart from face I would have politely told them to, well I don;t swear, 0ff. Of course nowa- days with so many ads on the TV for 'grooming for men' girl friends and wives may ask their men to do just that, and some of them do, that is the difference between the 1960's 70's etc and 2013
Hope everything in Guernsey is looking good for the Autumn
Regards Alan in Scotland
Hi Cindy, I am glad your 'Best Root Vegetable in Show' did so well. So happy to know that your parents enjoyed the cruise of the Islands around Britain and especially their day in Orkney. Orkney is not the most northely part of Scotland or the UK, Shetland is.
Yes, I have always lived in Scotland, I was born in Glasgow 67 years ago, but I know live in Cumbernauld, now that is halfway between Glasgow and Stirling, Stirling is very famous for its castle, a lot of tourists visit Stirling Castle, great view from the top of the castle rock, see for miles almost to Edinburgh, which also has a famous castle of course.
Regards to you and your husband
Hi Cindy, just been reading all the posts from you and your followers for the last year, looking back I told you that my daughter gave birth last December to a baby girl Sophie, but I forgot to tell you that my daughter in law gave birth to her second daughter in May, her name is Olivia, so I now have 3 grand-daughters, perhaps one day I will have a grandson.
Hello Cindy, thank you for your reply, I am so sorry that you could not have children, however, as you have told me before you have a wonderful husband who I am sure loves you very much. Yes, my 5 year old grand-daughter commented about my in her own words "my manly hairy arms" another time she commented about something I myself had not really noticed, mainly my hairy ears, that's new to me, later on that day I looked closely at the mirror and sure enough, just like the rest of me, they are very hairy as well, LOL, never mind, that's just me getting older, although I am very fit indeed and enjoy long walks in the winter and as I have told you, I enjoy cycling a lot as well
Not too long until Xmas Ouch, I should not have mentioned that LOL
My goodness Cindy, no one has written anything for more than 2 months, considering that you usually get some letters at least 4 or 5 times a weak, I wonder why this has happened. Anyway, its almost Christmas, I have bought all the presents and the Xmas tree is now up and looking very nice as well. May I wish you and your husband a very Happy Christmas and all the best for 2014

Hi Cindy, just registered and wrote a post regarding your moving house on that new "Bubblews.com" site. I am not sure if you can reply back to people like this one? Anyway moving house at any time is one of the high stresses of life mentioned of all stressful things, the other is a close love one dying. Its nice to get into a new home once things settle down. I just hope the removal goes smoothly
I used my usual registered name "AlMorr" That's a short version of my full name which is ALan MORRison, Morrison being sort of Scottish, son of Morris I think. However, to be honest with you Cindy I prefer Hub Pages, I don't think I'll be using that Bubblews much at all. I'll not keep you back from your preparations from moving house. I have read your profile page and as you know, also your other Hub Page posts.
Bravo! Women should not deface epilation and shaving! Hairy female armpits are very sexy. In Bulgaria 90 years of the 20th century, women had no epiliriha and were very sexy! Epilation is filthy and disgusting Jewish-American, homosexual fiction!
Happy New Year Cindy, I hope you are now settled down in your new home. I had a good time, spent new year at my sons house. I am having a little problem with my computer, cannot get Google Chrome on it at all, only Internet Explorer, that goes so slow, my son says he will try and fix the problem as son as he can.
Glad you are settling down in your new home Cindy. Yes I have tried uninstalling it via 'Add/Remove' but it refuses to 'Remove' My son thinks that a viros has got into that part of my computer, in fact he gave me this computer
He has a university degree, however, like yourself he is about to move house, as soon as he has the time he will try and get Google Chrome back
Hi Cindy, not much has happened on this Hub for over a month now, I notice you have written about 100 other posts on various other subjects when I pressed the "Mistyhorizon " 'about' icon'. I have read and replied to the one about cats, I will get round to reading the other hubs and reply to some of them. I hope you are coping with this ""wonderful"" weather of rain and gales we are having this winter, actually today Tuesday is nice and sunny, but for how long!!
That's amazing Cindy that you have almost 300 articles published. I replied to the one about dogs and thunderstorms. As I live well inland in the centre of Central Scotland, this area has missed the worst of the storms that seemed to have hit the south of the UK
Yes, all is well with me and my family, my daughter told me she is expecting her second baby in July
Regards to you and your husband
Hi Cindy, took my daughter for a meal yesterday to celebrate her birthday and she told me and showed me the result of a scan, she is having a boy in July, after having 4 grand-daughters I will have my 1st grandson
Hope you and your husband are keeping well, weather is getting better
I think women with body hair is definately a go go for me. They were born with hair so why get rid of it
So the chickens become hens, that means you must have plenty of eggs, that sounds wonderful Cindy.
Hi Cindy, I hope you are enjoying the nice warm spring weather now, here in Scotland its been a lovely day, just to tell you I got a brand new Laptop computer today so for the first time in about 3 months I can type this with 4 fingers and thumb instead of using 1 finger on my smartphone, the old computer could not be repaired. I am learning how to use my new Laptop, that will take time of course
So sorry to hear about the lose of your hens Cindy, I just hope the police find the owner and he is fined and the dogs are destroyed
Hi Cindy, I hope you got the dog situation sorted out and got or will get some compensation for the sad lose of your chickens. The weather is getting a bit better now. My new Notebook Laptop computer to give it its proper name is fantastic, they have given me some updates since I got it 3 weeks ago, I can now use Google again and use the old computer's mouse and keyboard, also I use a link from it through my 37" TV as well as the Laptop's 11.5" screen, that makes it even better.
Keep well
Hi Cindy, not much happening now, just to tell you my daughter gave birth to a boy on Saturday 26 July, this is my first grandson. The lovely weather ended on Saturday, during that period I did not see any lady with hair under her arms.
Has the owner of those dogs been taken to court regarding the chickens?
Hi Cindy, I am so happy that Scotland is still part of the UK, I know Guernsey has a lot of independence as well, but I think it still is part of the UK!! It was a very tense time in the early hours of Friday morning, I was so relieved that the no vote won, if it had been yes, according to some economists Scotland could have become another Greece in a few years time.
Hope you have sorted the chicken situation out with the small claims court
Alan in Scotland UK
Hi Cindy, been a bit quite here now for some time, anyway just to wish you and your husband a very Merry Christmas and all the very best for 2015. At Christmas I have been invited to the parents of my son in law, my daughter's husband's parents. My daughter now has two children Sophie will be 2 on 20th December, she now has a son Ewan who is 5 months on Boxing Day. At New Year I will once again be going to stay with my son and his Chinese wife, they now have 2 girls, Emily who is 6 and Olivia who is 15 months.
Once again Have a great Christmas
Alan in Scotland
My fiance is the cleanest human being on the planet, the hottest, the sweeties, the sexiest and I asked her to let her arm pit hair grow out just for me to see what it would be like and OMG....all of a sudden, something came over me that I have never experienced in my entire life! Her natural scent drove me into a frenzy of PASSION that I could not believe (nor could she) I think she appreciated the final outCUM b/c she has not shaved under there in 2 months = HAPPY SOLE MATE!
Hi Cindy Alan here in a sunny Scotland, not much has happened on this website this year, seems a bit strange after all the activity last year. I am keeping well and started cycling again just as the clock went forward, the weather has been good for that. I hope you and your husband are well, you got all that chicken problem sorted out, I hope.
Misty, a lot of comments on this hub. I prefer to shave my armpits, when it gets too hairy. Good points on why we should keep our armpit hair and not shave it. Voted up!
Amen, Misty. Ditto for my legs. Not attractive for the summer. ;-(
Hi Cindy, Alan from Scotland where the weather is beautiful after last weeks gales and rain. I hope you and your husband are both keeping well. I know you said in a recent post that you don't like men with a beard, well I am sorry to tell you that I have not shaved for exactly 12 weeks today (11th June) my last shave was on 20th March, HOWEVER I do remember you saying that the reason you did not like a man with a beard was that food got into the beard and that was dirty, I have made sure that does NOT happen to me. In my case I trim around my mouth, I do NOT have a moustach as that caused problems at only 3 weeks growth
My family and neighbours like my new look. I have made sure that none of the criticisms that you mentioned don't apply to me
Hi Cindy, been quite a time since anyone posted anything on this post, anyway I trimmed down my beard to only a small one as it was getting too bushy and thick for my and my relatives liking. I hope you and your husband have had a good summer, weather here in Scotland not as good as the last couple of summers but I have managed to get out cycling at least once or twice a week
Alan in Scotland
Congratulations Cindy in getting about 11 FIRST places in this years annual agricultural and horticultural show and your trophy as well, yes enjoy the rest of the summer.
Hi Cindy, Happy New Year for 2016. Alan here from Scotland, seems ages since anyone posted anything on this post, not seen any ladies with hairy arm pits for YEARS, yes, I don't know if I should be happy or sad, I know you dislike them but I think a little hair under some ladies arms are a little sexy but not like the photo above where that lady has as much hair as I have under her arms
The weather has been awful but I have not been flooded out or anything like that.
I grew a beard from March 2015 but shaved it off when it got too thick at about 4 months when some people thought I was getting far too hairy on my face and starting to look like Santa Claus, however its coming back again as my last shave was on Christmas Day before I went for Christmas dinner at my daughter's house, I'll see if I can go longer than 4 months this time.
Kind regards to you and your husband
Hi Cindy, long time no heard, Alan here in Scotland, seems to have gone dead for a while now, same with the other site from Australia I used to correspond with, no person on that for more than 2 years as well. Perhaps it's the change from desktops to Mobile Phones!!
I hope you are all well down there in the Channel Islands, not too bad a summer for me in Scotland, my family are getting on great, I am still doing a bit of cycling.
Regards to all
