I can understand men wanting hair taken off their backs, but this is ridiculous. Maybe I’m getting too old, but this is not manly. Its not that long ago that women swooned over a hairy bare chested Tom Selleck...

The worst part is if a He-Waxed guy gets into an accident and gets laughed at by the paramedics.
