I shave my legs for cycling. I didn't used to but one bad crash on gravel taught me better. Gravel was twisted into the hairs in my legs and after 2 hours of brush scrubbing in the ER I decided to start shaving my legs.

Added bonus, my girlfriend loves it.

I shave my legs! I am damned proud of it. I feel clean and cool in the summer. Seeing other guys with thick patches of hair all over is gross to me. Just yesterday i saw i guy riding his motorcycle with no shirt on and the hair was flapping in waves across his back. That was really cool looking, I'm sure every sensible girl in town was lusting after that.

I've found that women like the feel of smooth legs against their own. Also, I think they sense a closeness to a guy that understands the effort it takes to shave that much. What an advantage for the guy!

I shave pretty quickly every time I shower. It does not take much effort to put some shave cream on my legs while I lather up my face. I let it stand while I shave my face and use the same razor to quickly remove the leg hair. I find by doing every day I may miss some spots today but I'll get them the next day so I never seem to have more than 2 days growth. Just like face shaving, the legs get tough as time goes on and I rarely nick or get and razor burn.

To tell you the absolute truth, I started doing this when I had a vasectomy in 1986. The surgery required that I shave my genitals and in the process I thought I would shave a little beyond the necessary area to try an even things out. The unshaved area irriatate the shaven area so I shaved some more eventually going down the thighs. This looked strange in shorts so I did it all the way to the foot. I thought it was pretty coo and chicks thought so to. The regrowth was so itchy I kept shaving and have been ever since.

I shave my everything below my neck. Mostly becuase of the tattoos I get and also because the wife said if she has to be smooth, I have to be smooth.

You know, those poll choices sound odd. Makes it sound like you're saying you're a guy who is a woman and vice versa. lol.

I guess I for some reason prefer it if a guy doesn't shave (unless he's the human bear). But, hard to argue how much nicer shaved leg on shaved leg feels. :)

:rofl:

I'm sure they all wanted him :hump: Could make some waves of their own

anyways...

When I was a swimmer I had to shave my legs at the end of the season. It was always a really wierd feeling when they were smooth, but when it was growing back it really sucked. But no, I don't shave my legs

I'm a man and I'm a man!!!! Wait, I'm a man and a...I'm confused :blink:

Anyway, I don't shave my legs but I have before and I loved the feeling. It's really a matter of personal preferance but I think the smooth feel is great. A lot of swimmers and cyclists shave their legs for speed from what I've heard. The only problem I have with it is that it grows back all itchy and it's a pain to shave. :p

I don't understand why you would want us to shave, I mean if you have natural hair, not shaven it's very soft. It doesn't sting until after you shave.

Few days without shaving your legs and they are like a cactus.

Shaving your legs increases the change of getting pimples on them greatly.

Well, the more you shave the more used to it you get. I do get those ingrown hairs a lot more when shaving than when I wax them...so I wax my legs with those wax strip thingies.

lol ^

As for the leg shaving thing: If somebody has extremely hairy legs, then they should probably shave them IMO. While being completely hairless may look a bit strange on a guy, looking like a beast-man while wearing shorts would just look gross.

the only reason why i would shave my legs is to loose the little extra drag my leg hairs create in the water(i am a swimmer). out of the 9 years of competitive swimming, not a single razor blade has touched my leg.
