Leg Hair

I know I shaved the hair off this week
The razor was a solid brand
I felt my legs afterwards,
They were smooth as baby
Yet today I saw
My legs are dark
Curly hair
Grew all
Back

So maybe it was a week or two
Could possibly might have been
I shaved them hard on my knee
Hair floated down the drain
Grooming is no fun
The hair grows back
Hard and fast

I figure after reading some of your stuff, anything is "up for grabs" Jan! I say this with the deepest and hairiest affection for you, my friend.

Giggles! Mama used to say I'd never find a man if I didn't shave. Real men know real women have hair ;) love it! xomo

Any guy I dated had to be okay with it. The funniest: years ago when I was a young bike courier, sitting with a bunch of male coworkers, I had the hairiest legs there! Roadies ;p

I know some real men who are not repulsed at all by it, anyway, I know one.
