If you shave or trim, has anyone ever asked you questions or made remarks?

[Cicero]

So I'm thinking of either trimming or shaving my arms and legs, but I'm kinda worried about having remarks made or questions asked. And yes, I'm still worried about my family seeing body hair. Although I have gotten used to it around others. Just not family.what remarks were made about your leg hair, arm pit hair, or arm hair?

Also, I have a question. So whenever I look at my leg hair and arm hair, it looks hairy-ish. Yet when I look at the mirror from maybe 2 ft away, my arm hair is barely visible, and when I look at my leg hair from about 5 ft away, it doesn't look like its that big of a deal. It looks like any other guys leg hair amount. So which do I believe, the mirror view or my view without the mirror? Which is how others see it? If its the mirror view others see my body hair as, then why does it seem I can't believe it's that view? It seems as if I think, "No, this isn't how others see it". I always Doubt the mirror view, I guess it's cause with my personal view, my body hair looks 3x hairier than the mirror view, in fact, when I look in the mirror, it looks as if I might shave my arms. That's how un-noticeable my arm hair looks in the mirror vs direct non mirror view. So why am I always doubting the mirror view, and why do I not believe that I might not have that much of a hairy body as what I think I have? I want to believe and be comfortable that everyone sees my body hair as I see it in the mirror, but it seems I can't.

guys in the locker room at school have seen me with and with out body hair and no one has said anything to me about it.

my best friend sort of stared at my arms the other day when he noticed I had shaved them, but he didn't really say anything... I guess because he didn't want to seem like he paid attention to that kind of stuff.

I have never shaved my legs (tried to but it was a hassle) but I doubt most people would comment for the same reason.

The way others see you is whatever you see in the mirror. Up close you will obviously look a lot hairier so most people will see you just like you see yourself in a mirror, only maybe your close friends will ever be close enough to see you the same way you see yourself.

Students have seen me with shaven legs, I use Nair. They never said a thing, nor gave a funny look...

Well I'll try to help from the information given. My personal advice is, don't shave/trim out of embarrassment, the only time you should do either of those is if you personally want to. Don't do it for other people because it's just not worth it. My family has made quite a few remarks about my body hair, though that's probably because I'm unnaturally hairy. Mostly about my arms and legs. I have family who I haven't seen in years and they've been making a big deal lately about how hairy my arms are. But in the end they're just family, and they're just probably commenting on how you're maturing, which can be awkward but if you just laugh along with them, it'll be fine.

I don't think a mirror is an accurate representation of hair, especially for people that aren't super-hairy, honestly. I think you should just extend your arm as far away as you can, and I think that's the view people have. For me, though, my arms and legs look solid brown/black even across the room in a mirror, and definitely the same up close.

i dont get why a guy would shave hair besides pubic hair. it seems unmanly in my opinion. i would go with the mirror view. thats more how other people see you

I wouldn't worry about it. If you're comfortable, then go for it.
