Like it or not, there are few sights more arresting than a woman with a hairy armpit. The unfettered growth of female underarm and leg hair is considered one of the ultimate social taboos, dismissed as the kind of eccentric behaviour that should only adopted by hippies.

But while as a society we are used to removing all our body hair, one woman has decided to challenge the notion that women must be hair-free to be happy.

Graduate student Emer O'Toole from Dublin decided to stop shaving for good 18 months ago when she came to the conclusion that too much pressure is put upon women to conform to what she calls 'artificial gender norms'.

she has hairy legs as well...

wonder if she has a brazilian ? , or a sherwood forest...

Why is this news - go to Italy - common, especially in the South.

Same in Telford

No, no no no no no, I like order in my universe……..I like my beer cold, my homo’s flaming and my woman shorn close!

This is way to un-naturally natural for me.

well...beauty is in the eye of the beholder as they say...my 5'11" girl friend never shaved an inch (legs and crotch included) and she was the hottest action that I ever had...(stray bodily fluids going drip, drip, drip...)

Tusti ... dear tutsi... you dont have to always share in quite so much detail... ... ..just sayin'

Body hair? Do what you want with it..but personally i loathe it (on me i mean, not on my bf!). I had laser hair removal some years back and best thing in the world (once you get over the pain factor!). Probably couldnt grow armpit hair like that now even if i rubbed miracle grow on them. Like the clean feeling. So not just about social norms albeit a large part of it. I would feel as sexy as an old rotting fish with that much armpit hair and although i say good for her if she wants to do it, and we are lucky to have a free choice in the matter, i would feel a tad shocked if i saw her. Guess thats all down to social conditioning on my part, but it is what it is.

Oh and i didnt vote in the poll, because i dont think its either wrong or right.

...and of course it doesnt turn me on... but i guess that was just stuck in there as a dumb joke.

get outta here Ms eek; ye know that ye love it...secretions rubbed all over yer body...in yer spectacular, long limbed, etc, etc...

It certainly wouldn't be underarm hair that should be concerning...

Back hair, slight five o'clock shawdows, muff overgrowth, etc.

No its wrong. Hairy armpits on a woman are as wrong as a man smelling of Brut 33.

dam_n !!! I've had a case of that in the loft for years. I was just waiting for it to come back in fashion along with my collection of Penny Round shirts......

Needn't concern yourself with Thai ladies, as they've developed the art of plucking to a science.

Or they have a guy pluck it out for them.. well, something i witnessed a couple of years ago at my condo pool anyway.

Middle aged farang dude, with thai gf. Arm in the air, whilst he, armed with tweezers, plucks.

At the poolside.

Brut 33 is selling well here, neva really stopped having it in my cabinet.

...and Old Spice, tho the new version is not as good, shame.

Far better than being, "Lynx'd", which is all overpowering same.. same.... yuuuuuurk.

The French like it, but they also eat snails.

OK she is worth a look. Who is willing to shave their <deleted> if she does the armpits? Any takers...?

I'd wax 'em just to get her to get rid of that disgusting mess!

I knew a french-canadian girl named Colette and she was about 18 y.o. and she had a wisp of hair in her armpits...but it wasn't that that was so alluring, as her arms were like a cream cake; full and round and that they invited you to drown in her flesh...

tutsi: 'your arms are very attractive...' Colette: ' yes, my harms are nice...' and she smiled as she raised one to reveal the wisp of hair underneath and to show off the contour and to release a slight aroma of female perspiration and then tutsi trembled...

she was deadly...

If anything, this act creates the appearance of being larger..

I did that once and the poor girl ran from the room screaming.

Next time I will use a safety razor..

I met a girl 2 days ago with legs hairier than mine.....thai girl by the way..

Ive noticed that Thai girls often dont shave. Notice that when im on escalators. Up to them of course. With darker skin, its not so noticeable.

I first noticed leg hair on women in Bolivia...I had a friend Alvaro and his sister Mirta who was at least 4-5 years older was quite hirsute in that regard and she wore short skirts...me, being 15-16 y.o. at the time and recently arrived without the usual social graces: 'why don't ye shave yer legs?' Mirta: 'why do I don't do what?'...

as I was a handsome lad and that there were a number of comely women about 5 years older than me who were after my body she ignored the comment...she later stole my surfer Dos XX beer t-shirt to wear to the carnival dance at the exclusive Club Social (women had to attend in disguise - mascarita, so that no one knew who they were dancing with...and they also had the best pool tables in Cochabamba) but she was a mate's sister so it was OK...she was later unhappily married to a guy that studied medicine in northern Argentina and they had a little daughter who was very cute...and I remember that Mirta looked at me longingly and said: 'if you weren't so very young and I was not married...' and I liked her too, hairy legs and all...

later, an older woman that didn't have scruples regarding younger men seduced me and then there was a scandal with horrible repercussions...

to be continued on request...

whaaaa? with latin women there ain't no mistakin'...never seen such soft fragrant skin on any women anywhere...

to continue with tutsi's andean saga; the scandal was pervasive and people stood away from me as I was messin' with a betrothed lady (her fiance was in the US preparing the nest) of a well known good family (tutsi was cookin' with the bolivian hi-sos)...and then there was a spanish lit teacher who menaced: 'you think yer smart ye little gringo hoodlum?...well, ye ain't gettin' outta my course alive...' and this after my compositions were better than most as a non-native speaker which he couldn't stand...

turns out that the older girlfriend was a student of his that he admired and he couldn't believe that she fell for me...I didn't do much other than to sidle up and to say that she was pretty...didn't have no money and could hardly pay fer me smokes...

well, in Bolivia in them times in high school it was the baccalureate system; 14 subjects per year and if you failed one then the year had to be repeated and I had already lost a year from not knowing the language and there were guys in school in their 20's and still trying to graduate so's they could get into university...the spanish lit teacher's threat was a real hazard...

so then I wrote to me folks and told them to get me outta there or they would never hear from me again and it worked! but drastic measures are never the best way to approach problems...

and then, she got pregnant and then damaged herself with a self-abortion and her family were then involved an then they appealed to my pal Alvaro who was a hi-so kind of guy to intercede for me to do the right thing...and it was scary as I was only 17 y.o. and she had 3 big angry brothers and etc...this was 1967 and Che Guevara was operating in the bolivian jungle and I knew an army officer that got shot...everyone who is anyone knows everyone in a small town in the bolivian andes...so we made up and continued as per usual...what else were we gonna do?

then, almost 20 years later my mother died and I had to return to the town to settle her business and was walking down the street and trying to mind me own business and then who do I bump into? jezuz...she was then married with 2 kids but they happened to be away and then she invited me over for tea and then started with the moves; she was in her 40s but just as beautiful as ever and we had it off on the floor of her parlour...the maid was probably watching but she didn't care...and then she again demanded that I swear my love and expected me to correspond regularly from the US...I swore (what's a niggah to do?) but I never did correspond and now I understand that I am a dead man if I ever come near the place again as her husband is gunning for me...'gringo gran puta!! ahora ya te vas a pagar!!!' and he has important friends...

and I was just 16 y.o. and trying to mind me own business but she was a pretty woman 21 y.o. but pretending to be 18...one of them third world scenarios when the women when they're young look younger than their age...and I had a classmate in high school about the same time that was beautiful and smart (she was reading Les Miserables and we discussed) but she thought that I didn't believe in God and my attempts then went nowhere...and all I ever wanted to do was to kiss her, very chastely...and then she ran screaming when the scandal with the older woman appeared...
