There's a media fuss over here in the UK about whether David Beckham shaves his armpits :D

I'll admit that since I started dancing, I now trim mine so that I'm not smelly when I sweat :lol:

I can't remember how long I've been doing it, but I do shave them...

Figure anything to keep sweating down when dancing is always good.... I don't know if it really keeps sweating down a bit but heck I like it anyways...

I'm amazed by the initial numbers (3 - 4 - 0 !)

The things we men go through for the ladies :D

I trim, just feels better. Have tried shaving once, but that doesn't make a difference in sweating or smelling (provided you practice basic hygiene), so now just trim to keep things manageable, less upkeep then shaving.

I let a friend shave mine about 6 months ago for the first time. I like it much better because it helps me control the funk. A few women were surprised to see my pits shaved, but I never had a woman compliment me on having sexy armpits anyway lol.

The results across three forums are 75% of those who voted shave or trim their armpits :D (Exact numbers were 8 shave, 14 trim and 7 don't)

Is it too late to change my vote? I now shave my pits. Im not used to it just yet, so Im not sure if I like. Im going to give it a few more weeks and see how I like it. I do appreciate the freshness however :oops:

DD, I think you may need to add another voting choice. Maybe add something like "Scientific project in progress, will come back and change my vote according to my findings". ;) I'm only kidding. :D

Nope, I haven't! I am surprised by the voting results... :? ...but I usually clean that area before going out dancing... :)

Oh ew ew ew. What a thread. But hey, you guys should see what happens in this hot country. Specially in the humid monsoon season. Let me not gross you out, but guys drip all over the girlies. Drip. One fancy turn and you get a spray from hair-sweat.

Ok... I'm outta here...

Ladies with sweaty bare backs isn't were nice either... (We men need to put our hands there...)
Hmmm, maybe not all of us find that a turn-off :P

It seems most of the guys keep their armpits bald. Let advice the rest minority to follow the "fashion" :)

Interesting, what about further depilation. It has pretty nice impact on sweating - it's not fewer, but its effect is less noticeable (hm, maybe I miss the exact word). I must confess that I'm not totally converted - my legs are still under protection.
