Men: do you shave your armpits?
Hello male species. Do you shave your armpits? I do it because hair on them annoys me. I'm kind of hairy everywhere else though, besides the pubic area of course.

I don't shave them, but I do trim them as well as my pubes. I don't like the hairs to be too long. Just neat and trimmed.
From a girl's perspective, I think it's a bit feminine for a guy to completely shave his armpits, unless he's ripped and shaves/waxes his chest too.. Whatever you do it has to match, trim if you trim your chest hair, leave it if you leave everything else (pubic region is a whole other thing btw.. although if you have a particularly hairy torso, shaving probably isn't a good look either)
Eh I do it for myself. They just bother me. By hairy I meant my arms and legs are...not torso.. I do have a happy trail though which I'm not completely sure if girls fancy or not.
Shaving of the underarms is a good grooming habit. I recommend it to everyone regardless of gender.
Some do, some don't. I don't think it really matters as long as they're happy. I think it's kind of cool to see it on straight men though as they put in an effort to look more clean-cut. My fiancé doesn't shave his armpits but he barely has any hair there, thankfully. :)
Nah. I only shave my face. I trim my underarm hair a little because I don't like it more than an inch long, but I don't want to shave it.
Never in my life have I gotten the inclination to shave my armpits. A few times when i'm super drunk I've decided to shave my pelvic region or entire body, but that never included shaving or even trimming my arm pit hairs.
I just don't like body hair. I started shaving a number of years ago, got tired of it, tried epilating... painful at first, but gets better when you get used to it. However, now I almost never have to shave any more all underarm hair is gone! Used home IPL product and it worked great. So much cleaner and it is easier to apply antiperspirant. I have also noticed I smell much cleaner even after sweating without the hair. I can't stand seeing guys with long underarm hair hanging out from T-Shirts and such at sporting events and such. So gross.
Sometimes I cut them about half way, feels cleaner to get rid of the sweaty hair. I wouldn't shave them because it would itch growing back.
I use to shave them. I don't anymore cuz some people thought I was gay for doing it. I keep them trimed now.
Armpit hair turns me on something crazy. Unfortunately, my fiance is in there shaving his for a drag performance. I told him the next time he does drag, he's going as Amanda Palmer.
How to use Is It Normal?:
1. Pose a question in the form "I do X, is it normal?"
2. Allow users to choose "yes, it's normal" or "no, it's not normal" (the default options).
3. Don't be a fruitcake and make redundant polls.
THANKS
I trim them back a lot along with all my other body hair. I like them that way.
When I was in high school I shaved all my body hair. No, I wasn't a freak. I was a SCUBA diver, and wet suits in those days would rip the hair right out by the roots.
I took a lot of flack from the "cool" kids, but I made about $50 a boat (or $350.00 in today's money) for a couple hours work, cleaning the bottoms of yachts in the marinas, so the joke was on them.
