With the price of razors nowadays, who can blame them?

Amirite?

Wait a sec. I thought all Swedish women were hot blonde supermodels?

There are no razors in the kitchen.....

"Jon" doesn't sound like a woman's name.

I was at a new customer the other day and the girl in accounting had farking sideburns.....

All the women gathered in Malmö on Thursday...

Well there you go. You know what those Malmönians are like.

I'll bet I know what else they don't shave

/you perv, I was thinking legs

What happened to 1, 2, or C?

It's a hairy situation, but if we beat the bushes we could perhaps flush out a part-conditional choice of full body growth or free styling paradigms to replace the practice of splitting hairs and nit picking while detangling the issues....
 
2012-03-18 11:56:21 AM
I am guessing that most of the people calling them unhygienic whores are other women, not men.

Women don't dress themselves up to impress men, they do it to impress other women.

A, B, or 3?

Good for them for challenging the current cultural definitions of beauty and being confident in themselves for who they are, not what they look like. Who woulda thought people would respond so strongly to a little armpit hair displayed by a woman, heh.

Outrageous! Next thing you know they'll be wanting equal pay and the right to vote!

Uhhhh, I dress up to feel good about myself as well as to attract guys - I haven't really experienced what you're talking about.

I'm sure that they'd be perfectly okay with men not shaving their faces and kissing them on a daily basis.

Wait, women on the whole aren't okay with that? Oh, okay. Then shut the fark up and get back to work.

a buddy of mine dates a girl who doesn't shave her pits or legs. one of my (guy) friends thinks it's odd, but respects her decision and respects that our (male) friend does not mind at all.

i hadn't really considered how i'd react until a couple weeks ago i started dating a chick who also opts not to shave.

Well maybe not waxed arm pits but really long hair there starts to stink and get itchy. I don't shave my arm pits because I think other people care about it, I shave them because it gets annoying. And I am a guy.

The only chicks I knew in college who didn't shave their legs/pits also tended to smell like a kipper factory in the middle of a patchouli field.

Do you know who are the most virulent misogynists in the world? Women. No man... has ever felt such hatred for women as women themselves feel towards their own sex. Why do you think they try to seduce us? Soley to defy and humiliate their fellow women. God instilled in women's hearts a hatred of other women because he wanted the human race to multiply

I had a girlfriend who didn't shave her legs or pits. It weirded me out for about 2 seconds until I realized that women didn't start shaving until about WWI and I was doing as men had done for 99.44% of human history.

Feel free not to shave whatever you've got. But you'll have no one but yourself to blame when you can't attract a man.

Only thing worse then hairy armpits on a woman is hairy nipples.
/ don't tell me you haven't seen them either.

Also, MEN couldn't give two shiats about whether you girls are shaving your pits, pluck your eyebrows into oblivion or have a pimple on you damn forehead. We DO love you girls for your personalities.

I've been to Ludvika where the Ehrin chick who was quoted was from. I fully believe it might have been a man and TFA writer was mistaken. The women there all looked like moose so it's easy to confuse them.

/also armpit hair is gross
 
2012-03-18 12:24:26 PM
When you've got time to devote your efforts to something like this, it might be time to start questioning whether or not you're relevant anymore.

Plus, what are these women doing outside unescorted by a male relative?

I've been shaving my pits for 10 years and I'm a guy. I also shave my legs from October to March. I hate being hairy. I can't imagine a woman wanting to purposely grow their armpit hair out. Even if no one sees it, it just feels nasty.

I care a bit about all of it. My girlfriend gets irritated by me not shaving my face, and I get irritated when I see underarm hair.

Here's the deal: people have expectations on how you will look in society. You're free to not follow those expectations, but don't biatch when people suddenly treat you differently. Shaving your underarms is not a ridiculously hard thing to do and isn't some global plot by the patriarchy to keep you barefoot in the kitchen. It's there because hair is associated with manliness in Western culture. Even with that, it's still not acceptable for men to change their shaving habits while in a good number of professions. If I showed up to my parking gig I had last summer with a bad 5 o'clock shadow on my face, I would have been told to rectify it the next time. If you walk into an accounting or law firm or another highly professional organization for an interview with a handlebar mustache at age 25, your odds of getting a job there decrease significantly. Women themselves have a preference about whether they like men shaved or unshaved. This isn't some special rule that is applied to women only or that's harsher on women than it is on men. It's something we all live up to.

Swedish feminists are hilarious, and not at all relevant. They're just a circle jerk of women who've built their personalities around victimization complexes. They tried to form a feminist political party, "F!", a few years back. It literally fell apart due to catty infighting.

Who the fark even has time to worry about this shiat, let alone protest.

If you don't wanna shave your pits, don't Otherwise shut the fark up. Get a job, get a hobby or something.
 
2012-03-18 12:37:49 PM
So now we can easily identify them and avoid them. What a nice gesture.
