Beauty and the Beast: The Hairy Man : Hairy Men

[Barbie]

You either love it or hate it, but for better or worse, men tend to be hairier than their female counterparts (I should hope). When a person meets another person for the first time, they’re naturally attracted to face, hair, and physique. If the overall “package” looks good, even subconsciously, the body tends to react positively, your pupils dilate, your nostrils flare, your skin flushes a little bit, and you act a little flirtatious or maybe even a little aggressive. Maybe this first meeting will culminate in a wonderful climax (pun intended).

The night’s going just the way you’d want it to, what you might consider a perfect date. Good company, lively conversation, an enjoyable meal. You take it home, and maybe start to get into it a bit. Whilst in the middle of a tender embrace, her hand wanders beneath his shirt and gently rubs his back. What the heck? Is he wearing a sweater under his shirt? Oh my God. It’s not a sweater, it’s him! Eeek!! Her hand whips out from beneath as though her fingernails have caught fire. No, it won’t be quite as dramatic as that (again, I should hope); but, literally and figuratively, she’s been snagged by a hairy guy.

Now, some women, well, they don’t mind a man having a little pelt, provided it’s where it should be -- on the arms, legs, groin, and chest (not too much, here, though; and the little bitty tiger line that snakes down to your nether regions is absolutely sexy as hell to most women). And of course, it’s nice to have some hair on the head as well. But many women draw the line at hairy backs and shoulders (or worse). A survey of women found that a full 93% of women surveyed said emphatically, two thumbs down to hairy backs.

But what if the “beast” is otherwise, an absolutely wonderful guy? Can you overcome that feeling that you’re stroking your pet angora cat while you lie together, or will that repulse you? Not a good sign.

Perhaps you’re a man with a bit of a hirsute problem, and are afraid to date for fear of ridicule and embarrassment. It likely happens all too often. The good thing about dating online is that you offer your soul up first, in a manner of speaking, and a person gets the chance to know your inner beauty, where it really counts. If you’re upfront about it, it’s quite possible your new friend will insist that that wouldn’t bother her, just to show that she’s not superficial or shallow. Good, take her up on it. Go out on that first date, and see where it leads.

It doesn’t have to end there, though, especially if you’re both agreeable to continuing a relationship and working towards improving it… even if that means being “shed” of the excess hair. Fortunately, there are several ways to do that. The only permanent hair removal solution is electrolysis, which must be done professionally, and tends to be tedious and expensive (not to mention, somewhat painful), but usually well worth the effort. Waxing is only a temporary solution, and is quite painful; you probably won’t look forward to doing this every 4 weeks or so. Shaving is the poor man’s option, but the stubble may grow in much coarser, and naturally, you’re lady friend probably won’t enjoy hugging a hedgehog.

The bottom line, though, is that the “beast” needs to be perfectly honest and upfront with his “beauty.” Having too much hair or too little hair is not necessarily a relationship breaker, provided the relationship is strong to begin with. It just takes a little adaptability on both of your parts.

I dont care if you are hair or not, I dont care if you come from money or not, I just want what is in the heart. Is that too much to ask for????????????????

I love hair but not everywhere!!! Long hair (I hate the short hair look), scruffy face and nice chest hair!
