This reminds me of a youth trip to a water park where one of our leaders didn't shave her self and was spilling out of her swim suit. No one said anything but it sure bothered me. Then again I don't think you should be wearing clothing that doesn't cover up that stuff, she should have had some shorts on or something. It was really disturbing to me. I couldn't believe she didn't notice - she was a bit weird though.Fiannan wrote:Most men do not care about makeup on women. Most men would be happy if their wives met them at the door with a pizza and sporting no makeup when they return from work. As for hair, there are guys who hate any hair, are indifferent or like a woman who goes all natural. Just remember, none of Brigham Young's wives shaved. Women did not do that in those days. Personally I think it should be up to the woman and she should not care what others think. When a woman starts dating and the guy sees her in a swimming suit, and is okay with whatever her desired look is, then he will call back for additional dates.Melissa wrote:I remember the time I first thought to shave my legs. I entered the 7th grade in SoCal and during PE class some Hispanic girls with fancy hair, nails, and makeup mocked and laughed at me for having hairy legs.
It sure was an eye opener to me! I was just happy and content with my legs before that encounter. (didn't realize hairy legs meant I was less female) actually- I didn't even realize I had hairy legs until that day. My hair was blond too, barely visible.
So to me, mere culture has me shaving.
Other than that I go against the norm of about every other beauty thing culture would have me do. I'm pretty natural and look good, never had a problem getting attention BECAUSE I was natural.
I wonder if men truly even like that women are so vain? I mean wear so much make up and doll up their hair (to the point they can't run their fingers through it), spend hours in the bathroom and wear lots of jewelry and fashionable clothing. Sounds expensive!
Buy hey, that's the only time I seen anything like that and I have spent tons of time around pools and beaches.
