same here it was so bad I could not even sleep at night. I never did it again afterwords.

Trick is to not shave it, just buzz it down with hair clippers.

Do everyone a favor and at least shave your back.

Lucky me, my back has mostly escaped the curse. It's hairy, don't get me wrong, but it's not furry like the rest of me, so I don't have to worry about it. Still, I don't see the point of shaving / trimming it - it's an inaccessible area, there's a lot of surface area and hair grows back. For something that's such a pain in the ass to upkeep, wouldn't waxing be better, man-card be damned?

Yeah I have a personal trimmer that doesn't take it all the way down. So it brings it to about a 1/4 - 1/2 of an inch, and it's nice for the ladies, and nice for you.

Remember kids: No one likes to get lost in a forest.

I might very well be the only hairy asian guy, but yes we do exist.

Shens on all of you!

In all seriousness, I've found most women like the hairy man chest. No hairy back though, thank god. One girl explained it to me as "When I was younger, I didn't like it as much..."

I only know a few women that vocally mentioned that they don't mind men with chest hair, but hairy back is another story.

<-- Asian and it take 2-3 weeks to get enough for a Fu Man Chu, hairless torso/thighs/arms, and women love it. In college women friends would run their hands constantly all over my body (also in public) an commented how they love hairless skin.

So f'ing what. Shave it off for christ sake. Is this going to kill you or something? God forbid you do something your GF wants you to do...:roll:

Are you afraid you'll become a fairy and start liking boys?

It's the principle. How do you think a girl would react if her boyfriend wanted her to shave her head?

If you want a woman to control your life, go for it. It works for some, but not for me.

People thought I had crabs....

So, if I do something because my GF asked me to then a woman is controlling my life? :roll:

Wow, just wow...

I have wondered what Veet does to man-hair or on the personal area, seeing as it does so well on women's legs.

Hairy chest here. I also have hairy shoulders and upper back, and I hate it so bad. G/f says she loves it, though...

Also, trimmed up downstairs ftw. Itched the first time or two, but after a couple shaves, it's actually quite addicting.

I've got hair on my chest and some sparse ones on my shoulders. No back hair thank god. People saying that they don't have hair in any of the right places have the hormone DHT to thanks for that. It's what causes hair growth in the early teens and hair loss later on. Get on some propecia (a drug that binds with DHT receptors) and you'll see a step in the right direction in both regards.

I've used nair on my chest, shaved it, trimmed it low with clippers, and waxed it. I like the trimmed look. I'm going to get laser surgery in the near future. My grandmother has a hook up for laser so even if it's not very effective I won't be out any money. :)

I am Asian and I am hairy as well. Chest hair and a bit of back hair. I am an Asian outcast, :D. Some chicks dig it though.
