Today, my daughter asked me to get her razors. When my 19-year-old son saw them he asked what they were for, to which my daughter replied, "For my armpits." My son then said, "Girls don't grow armpit hair." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend asked me why girls don't have armpit hair. FML
Today, I explained to my teenage daughter that enough was enough and she needed to start shaving her armpits again, stating it was unladylike and unsanitary. Her only response was, "If it's so unsanitary, why don't you make my brother do it?" I give up. FML
Today, I had to explain to my boyfriend that yes, girls do get armpit hair, we just have to shave it. FML
Today, I came across one of the pitfalls of having open discussions with my 15-year-old son when he asked me how to shave his pubes. FML
Today, I overheard my mom telling my younger sister not to use my razors because she "doesn't know what I may have." FML
Today, my teenage daughter asked me to buy her the morning after pill, saying, "It's for my acne." FML
Today, whilst taking a shower, I noticed my razor wasn't in its usual spot. Upon inspecting it closer, I noticed that there were tiny white hairs in it. When confronting my father about it, he claimed the "pink razors" are his. We've been sharing the same razor this entire time. FML
Today, my 19-year-old daughter got a haircut. When I asked her if she tipped the hairdresser, she looked at me in horror and asked, "You’re supposed to tip hairdressers?" FML
Today, I bought an expensive razor that's supposed to be great. My roommate asked if she could borrow it, and as her legs just looked like they needed touching up, I said sure. After a strangely long amount of time, she came back, thanked me and left. Her legs were still hairy. FML
Today, in front of my friends, my mom came after me with a pair of tweezers exclaiming, "There's just a couple of hairs on your chin that need to be plucked." I'm a 14 year-old girl. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Please sit down with your son and explain to him about women's bodies. The world doesn't need any more men who believe that pornstars and Hollywood actresses are how women are supposed to be. He probably doesn't mean any harm with his comment, but that attitude is still horribly damaging to women who already are unhappy with their bodies.

I think boys should shave aswell....

I disagree. I find it super weird whenever I see a man with shaved armpits. Or shaved legs. I like the manly look a lot more.

A few females in my family actually don't grow armpit hair at all. They do however have hormone deficiencies...

As someone of the same age, I've known women have hairy armpits since birth. Source: I'm Italian

Although I've always known that women grow armpit hair, I can kinda see his logic. Women don't grow facial hair (unless they have a hormone imbalance), so similarly,if he had never seen a woman with unshaven armpits, I can see why he might have thought women don't grow armpit hair.

Well, for one thing, women do grow facial hair, it's just usually very light. And apparently this 19 year old has never had a serious girlfriend, because when you get close enough you can see some stubble. I'm not saying like staring contest with an armpit close, but you can lay down by someone or see them stretch and see that there's some stubble. And even men in the media most of the time at least trim their underarm hair. There have been plenty of times when I was watching a movie and saw some actor and had to say to myself "WTF? Where is his armpit hair?"

The media is to blame? Aside from ignorant people that don't know about female anatomy. Women gave done this to themselves. Why women put on make-up? Why do they wear high heels?

Your son is an idiot. Tell him to step away from Xtube and start interacting with living, breathing, women.

you'd think being from Canada, with the very large French population, he might have seen a hairy woman

Hence the point of shaving them...your son will learn anatomy later...he'll then know...
