Today, my boyfriend asked me when I was going to shave my arms now that summer is coming in Australia. FML

Today, my boyfriend asked me why girls don't have armpit hair. FML
Smash the Patriarchy!
Today, I had to explain to my boyfriend that yes, girls do get armpit hair, we just have to shave it. FML
Today, while talking to my boyfriend, I noticed he looked uncomfortable. When I asked what was wrong, he asked when the last time I shaved was. I answered, "I shaved my legs this morning." He shook his head and said, "No, I meant your face." FML
Today, I told my boyfriend that I don't like his facial hair and that he should shave it off. He replied, "You first." FML
Today, my boyfriend told me he'd help me shave my mustache. I'm a girl. FML
Today, I was getting ready to meet my boyfriend. We haven't seen each other in a month so I decided to shave my body hair, even though I have really sensitive skin and usually end up getting rashes after a few days. His flight got cancelled and he won't be back for another two days. FML
Manchild
Today, I told my boyfriend I had an appointment for laser hair removal. He responded by making "pew pew" noises and pretending to shoot my underarms. He's 28. FML
Today, my fiancé asked me to do some manscaping. I got a little overzealous and now I look like a 12-year-old boy with razor burn. FML
Today, my boyfriend, who hasn't shaved in a month, went to go shave. I was pretty excited since his beard was starting to make my face itch whenever we kissed. When he came out of the bathroom he had a handlebar mustache. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I compared our No Shave November body hair. This is how I found out that my legs are hairier than his. FML

Exactly, who shaves their arms?

I had never heard of people doing this before I moved to LA, but it's quite common here for women to shave/wax their arms. I'm not sure what is so abhorrent about arm hair that makes this necessary, though.

#11, normally people who are really self conscious about their body hair will shave or wax their arms. I've actually considered waxing my arms before, and it's not that strange to most people. But if OP isn't fond of the idea, her boyfriend shouldn't be an arse and should respect her. After all, I doubt OP asks her boyfriend when he's going to shave his legs or armpits.

I shave my arms every few months or so. I just like how smooth they feel. It makes me feel more feminine in a way. I know many other women that do the same!

i have really dark hair so i just personally dont like the way my arms look with hair on them so i shave them. the stubble is weird though :/

I have a lot of arm hair and I personally hate it and have considered waxing. But shaving doesn't make sense to me at all. The last thing I want is stubble growing in and having it look like shaved legs. When you wax the hair is pulled from the root so the hair grows in with a small fine tip on the end, when you shave you cut off the fine tip making it look thicker and courser until it grows long enough that it grows a fine tip.

I'm not hairy at all but still shave/wax my arm hairs +.To me it looks better and they aren't stubby at all, especially when I moisturize my skin. My BF also does the same-- including his chest hairs. Plus he trims his leg hairs super short with his beard trimmer. Where I live, it's common for everyone to do. Males included.

#53, hair removal creams like Nair might be the best option for your arms.

Who doesn't shave their arms? In New Zealand I've never dated a woman who has hairy armpits. I find it actually repulsive and sickening if a woman hadn't shaved/trimmed/waxed/etc her arms.
Brandi_Faith 34
Arms as in forearms, not armpits 86
englacobain 14
86, if a woman doesn't want to shave her armpits she doesn't have to. You and your norms are disgusting, not the woman with her natural hair.
limabeans101029 21
86- Why? The hair there is natural. Men don't generally shave their armpits and it isn't seen as "sickening" so why should it be any different for women?
BaDumTsss_fml 23
Normal people, #11?
SAGARCo 19
People hate 86 for having a preference. That's like hating a straight man for not being gay.

Wow... can guys get ANY more superficial? This is why aliens don't visit us.
Alexis2742 31
What?
iLike2Teabag 27
Aliens won't visit us because one guy asked somebody if she was gonna shave her arm. Right.
peceout 29
No, not really the reason.
sempisaviour 17
#20 it's because society is extremely superficial.
RedPillSucks 33
No. We don't visit cause you poisoned all the fish
Brandi_Faith 34
You had an okay comment till you brought in the aliens.

Just do it to humor him
AlaskanG 27
Why would she do that if she doesn't want to?
Khaleesi_26 30
She shouldn't havw to humor him. Shaving is a personal choice and preferance.
Fonsecac 11
Well I don't like to shave my facial hair but my GF ask me to do because I look more attractive to her that. She rewards me well after I shave, so some compromise does help.

Myabe its just me but if a guy wanted to keep his facial hair and didnt want to shave I wouldn't ask him to either.
Hollywoodgirl79 18

**** Off!!! Hollywood Girl...
Despereaux 15
It's no one's business if you shave or not. Guys don't shave (generally) so if he doesn't understand it's your decision, it's not your fault.
annie917 15
Did he ask you to shave down under as well?
cinskeep43 15
would've made more sense
RedPillSucks 33
But she has to shave in a counter clockwise pattern, Coriolis effect and all.

best comment I've ever seen^^^^... too bad 99% of ppl wont get it
doraaa01 7
I get so angry when I'm asked this... I don't wax or shave for the guys benefit, I do it because I hate having hair there. It's extremely rude and insensitive of ANYONE to expect you to shave any part of your body..
annie917 15
If a guy ever asked me to shave down there I would let it grow it to be Chewbacca's hair length
nmrat 10
@79 Let it grow, let it grow!
annie917 15
@94- Do you want to build a hairy snatch?
Googolman 29
Ask him when he's going to shave his head.
peceout 29
The only thing I would have removed, is him. Well atleast after I make him shave.
lifesneutral2002 6
With a request like that, he must shave too
