I don't know. If sarcasm it'd be great to put that /sarc after it; sometimes I add it myself to some posts.

Probably read it too fast.

re: “Taking a stand: Temple U. students ponder female body hair standards”

Does this work for, or against, so-called “marriage material”? /s

I was absolutely kidding. I’m not offended at all.

My post was just commentary about how visually unappealing the post was and that you ought to have a 24-hour ban for it.

Women have to be pretty insanely intentionally fat and ugly to not get laid whenever they want to. Then of course, they can simply add alcohol if they feel the overwhelming need for an abortion.

Okay - no wurries. I wasn't really thinking too much since I was on my first espresso of the day - gotta do some flights so was in a rush.

I will bet most of you out there don’t know the story of how women began shaving.

After the invention of the safety razor the Blade companies were looking for way of new revenue. Well Bingo they looked at women. Until that time women did not shave and in a lot of places in this world they still don’t. The Blade companies started marketing the idea of women shaving in about 1915 with the first large ad campaign directed at women.

So the blade companies cooked up a phony government report in about 1920 that indicated that women needed to shave their legs and underarms as it was a Hygiene thing and needed to be done. So with the help of women’s magazines, the movies, and I bet even doctors the campaign for women to shave started and was a success.

Now the U.S. and Western Europe are sold on this idea and the blade companies found a way to get women to shave. Now if it is a hygiene thing the question is why don’t men shave their legs, underarms and all body hair? If you look at the movies before, say the early 1960’s, men actors shaved all their body hair if they showed their torso’s.

I have always found women to be more concerned with, more attentive of, more positive or negative critical of, more all consumed with women’s beauty sense than most men.

Yes, men notice when they think a woman is particularly pretty. We look, and we move on.

But women seem obsessed over women’s beauty, talk about it constantly (as men seldom do about each other’s looks).

If anyone has created many of today’s women’s beauty mores, it is women, not men.

Women shave body hair because they are vain.

You are spot on with your assessment of women judging other women. My wife will contort herself to check out how she looks in the mirror. I tell her the only one she has to please is me - and I am very pleased!

I cannot tell you how many times I have told my wife I find her the most attractive straight out of bed, before she does her hair or makeup. I think it took her until our 20th year of marriage before she believed me.

It worked OK for Neanderthals, Cro-Magnons and works today for much of the “third world”. There are plenty of unfussy men who’ll take whatever they can get. I’ll stick with the cleaned-up version, thank you. But to each his own.

Took awhile and some other posters to find out. I usually put a /sarc after something that might be misconstrued or a smilie face.
