Is it considered normal for men to wax body hair?

First off i aint gay or anything, but i am starting to have some hair on my shoulders and back, its not much and not long but i am sure its a matter of time.





Now sooner or later i am going to get rid of it and i would shave it but i hate when the hair starts to grow it gets all ichy and irritating. So i am thinking that i will wax it.





But for a guy to wax his body hair, is this normal? does this make a guy gay? What if i was to wax most of my body hair? What do you think?Is it considered normal for men to wax body hair?
Yes, it is perfectly normal. Its okay, you dont have to hide it. Lost of men do it.Is it considered normal for men to wax body hair?
guys wax their body hair for lots of reasons. Champion bike racers like Lance Armstrong wax their body hair to cut down on wind resistance. Nothing gay about that. Nowadays, we have lots of choices in life. If it makes you feel better, try it. It's not something irreversible.
The only thing that makes you gay is being sexually attracted to other guys. Nothing else.





As far as your body hair goes, the best thing to do is just get over it. It's not mentally healthy to keep fighting your body reality. If you are hairy, be PROUDLY HAIRY. Tinkering with superficial stuff like hair all the time leads to poor self esteem. You are who you are -- rejoice in the body you have.





Anyway, who wants to look like some pathetic hairless Ken doll? Body hair is a sign that you have normal levels of male hormones. Be glad you have it!
i woulld only do it if you have a lot of if you ever get a lot... otherwise i wouldnt worry about it cuz once you wax it each time it will grow back thicker so be careful!!! good luck deciding...
I think it's great that you want to wax, and more guys should do it. Hairy guys are just nasty. :P


It in no way makes you gay, it just shows you have concern for your appearance and hygiene, which can be rather appealing to the ladies.
Well, we seem to have a really good range of opinions, so here's mine.





I'm a straight guy who has regular full body waxings. My wife thinks I'm having some sort of mid-life crisis. Well maybe I am but if this is its worst symptom, I'll carry on until I decide I don't want to do it any more.





There's nothing gay about getting waxed, so REALLY don't worry about that aspect. It's a totally normal modern practice that some men (of all orientations) choose to do





The answerer who said that the hair grows back thicker after waxing was wrong except in a tiny minority of cases - I have found the exact opposiste (it comes back finer) on most of my body but strangely, no effect on the thickness of re-grown hairs on my chest. I think for most people, the more you get waxed, the hair grows back finer, more slowly and fewer hairs grow back. However, total hairlessness in the treated area is more of a wish than a reality for the vast majority of people however many times they get waxed.





If you want permanent hair removal, laser treatment is the answer as long as you are light skinned and your hair is dark. It's expensive - but maybe not if you otherwise have to go for waxings every month or two. I understand for most people it's completely effective and truly permanent.





Happy hairlesness!
