I shave my armpits. I am a man. I do it for hygienic reasons. I tell very few people about this. What's your opinion?

So do I. I also trim my body hair and pubes. It cuts down on the number of infected hair roots, makes my skin a little more supple and easier to clean, and like you said, it definitely cuts down on the smell. Plus, the ladies love it, trust me!
-
I have no opinion. They are your armpits, if you want to shave them, I can't see that it's anyone's business but yours. I am quite sure that you are not the only man who does this and I see nothing wrong with it.
-
sorry pal thats rough- literaly!
-
Good for you. Do whatever makes you happy.
-
Well, I'm a woman and I do it for hygienic reasons too. Whatever you want to do, I'd back it up. Though I do prefer at least a LITTLE hair left on men. Shiny smooth men kinda creep me out. But so do stinky ones, so maybe chest hair is better to leave than armpit hair!
-
you told the entire world when you did this. they are your armpits and you are entitled to do with them what you wish.
-
I shave my toes. the hair gets stuck in my socks.
-
I wish all men would shave under their arms. To me hairy underarms are filthy.
-
I wish more men thought like you.
-
I also shave my arm pits for the same reason and it doesn't bother me at all that I do it. The hygene thing is a very valid reason. Once I did my whole body and felt really naked at the time. Don't sweat it.:-)
-
There is nothing wroong with that at all, goodon you who cares what other people think you sound like a very very clean imaculate person nothing wrong with keeping your self clean
-
Whatever you're comfortable with. It's your body.
-
I don't have an opinion. They are your armpits, so you can do what you like with them. Shave them or dye them red, white and blue - it's got nothing to do with me.
-
To each his own. I trim my pubes because I don't like sweeping little curly hairs off the bathroom floor so I don't see any problem with you shaving your pits,My pits are not very hairy so I don't worry about them
-
Its a good idea, as you don't have to wash as vigorously as there is less bacteria.
-
My opinion is that you are right to tell very few people as very few people will care.
-
I really don't care what you do with your arm pits. As long as it is in the privacy of your own home.
-
It's okay with me, that's why I shave my armpits, and you probably don't have many chances to tell people, anyway.
-
well i'm a man and I shave my pits, butt and nuts!!
-
That's good that you are thinking about hygiene, in my opinion. Good place to start. And anyway, if people think that's gross, does it really matter? Seriously, just do what you want to do! HIH!
-
It's sexy.
-
go ahead. it's not BAD. it's not GROSS. it's just clean, and i'm glad that you want to stay hygenic
-
Its a very good habit
-
What hygenic reason would you possibly do that for?
-
a lot more men need to do that.
-
I'm a guy and I shave my armpits! It feels better, looks better, and your anti-perspirant works better too! And check out this link; http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20238551,00.html?xid=rss-topheadlines TOBY KEITH SHAVES HIS TOO!!!
-
That's why I do it as well, and I likewise keep pretty quiet about it. Then again, my armpits are about the least likely part of me to attract attention anyway.
-
My opinion is that only your opinion matters when it comes to this.
