Hi Bobie,
I have shaved my legs for years when we lived in New Orleans, of course nobody gives a hoot. I still shave my legs but living in the country you wear long pants out in the woods or the ticks and chiggers will have a fun day.
Besides you will fine nobody cares as people have their own problems.

I started shaving then epilating my legs about 4 years ago. Here in Florida, I wear shorts almost every day. The only person to notice was my SO, and she thought my legs looked great.
Hugs,
Lydia

I've been shaving for the last couple of years. No one has said a word. I started painting my toes a off white, almost cream, that didn't work as well. My stepson asked me about it.
Rats...! I really like my toes painted by will foregoe it during the summer.

I have shaved since I was a teenager - back then I swum competitively but when I stopped I didn't like the feel of hairy legs so I kept on shaving.
I have never had anyone comment on it when I have been wearing shorts even when sitting with them.
Peoples only see what they want to see unless they feel threatened.

I keep my legs shaved all the time. I have for almost 2 years now. No one notices that you have shaved legs. I even have my toes polished a bright Red and have worn open toe sandals in public and again no one seem to notice.

I too keep mine shaved and as I have been in long blue jeans and Army uniforms most of my adult life, my legs are brilliant white, so wearing shorts would be embarrassing even with hair. I also live in the sticks and have the tick issue to deal with, and as there are a lot of seed ticks, no bigger than freckles, being shaved makes it a whole lot easier to find them.

I keep my legs shaved. In fact I've done it for years now. Its no big deal and only once at the gym did someone ask if I saved them. I said yes and that was the end of the discussion on that. There are enough sports that are improved with shaving such as swimming and in cycling or running if you fall and cut yourself its easier to treat the injury and certainly apply bandages. Its gotten to be one of those things that I do as second nature now and never give it a thought.

When I used to race bicycles as a kid it was a requirement to shave your legs for health reasons.
Now I do it for other reasons and no one has said anything yet!

I started shaving my legs about 4 yrs ago.... first on an non regular basis, since about 2 yrs I keep them shaved al the time.
In general no mentions this. Just one of my (former) colleagues asked me "you shave your legs?" - I simply replied: "yes"...
Also about 2 years ago I started to shave completely and last year, while I went swimming in the Dead Sea with colleagues, I neglected shaving for a few days too long. So one of them complained as a joke: "you haven't shaved yourself well enough for us" - I just replied: "I had not enough time, and I do not shave for you..."
Anyway - those were no bad situations...
My SO likes my shaved body a lot...

I have been fully shaved from neck to toe now for well over 4 years and love the nice soft feel.
The only comment i have had about my legs, have been from GG's when i have been out fully as Denise and wearing a skirt, is that you have nice legs, wish mine looked that good.
Made me feel real nice .

Bobie, I think that they probably do shave their arms. (it's in the constitution, the right to bare arms

)
Personally, I use depilatory on my arms.
I'm just wondering about their need to shave their toes.
