Reply To: Excuses & Benefits to Shaving Leg Hair

[Stephanie MacNeil]

I shave my legs because I wear pantyhose everyday and I don’t want to look hairy.  My wife would also not be pleased to see hairy legs under my hose.  I wax above the waistline, use depilatory cream in the nether regions, but I shave my legs every 3rd day with a Venus razor and Skintimates cream.  If I waxed them I would have to wait too long before another wax and the hair would grow back too much.  I like the act of shaving and the feeling of freshly shaved legs when I put on a nightgown or when dressing in pantyhose and a dress.  I fee like it’s what a lady should do.
In public, my legs are covered for most of the year, and even in mid summer, no one really cares today.  I’ve never had an issue.
