Poll coming so don’t go throwing your pancakes at the 7-11 guy and just give me a second geez. What is up my fellow people\* with hair. (And not just the kind on the top of your head, if you know what I mean, yowzers wowies! 🆒 ) I was watching an episode of Chopped and from the lighting and camera angles one of the Lady contestants had **N** oticeable **F** acial **P** each **F** uzz. And it reminded me of a past girlfriend **(GF)** that had **NFPF**. It got me thinking about other GF’s. I’ve dated a girl that had no **NFPF** , one that did and one that had it but shaved, which I didn’t care about. I got to thinking about how I felt about that\*\*, and none of the situations of each Lady really occurred to me, at the time, to put any thought into. 1. With the Lady with the **NFPF** I liked brushing my face up against hers as it was soft and fluffy and warm. 2. The Lady with none I liked brushing up against as it was silky and smooth like a baby’s bottom. (Not that I go around brushing my face up against a baby’s butt.\*\*\*) 3. The Lady that got the **NFPF** but shaved it I never had any complaints either with it. Sometimes it’d be like Lady 1, sometimes like Lady 2 and sometimes an in-between but it wasn’t all hard and scratchy like mine as a male-human-non-Bonobo so it didn’t bug me. So I am asking you, questions.\*\*\*\* **Ladies:** The first four. **Gents:** The next four. **Everyone #9:** - I apologize to all you non-human people internetizens. For any of you cats, dogs, monkeys or shifty-ass octopuses that also use the internet please feel free to vote if you are so inclined. Voting for human people or your own people is your choice. Please vote how you feel. \*\* I know, I’m a Big Ol’ Softy. \*\*\*Not since the last couple of restraining orders. \*\*\*\*You know, those things that trick you into telling things about yourself so the government can gather more data on you so they know how best to neutralize you when the time comes. ---

Guy here. I find it really, really unattractive. Here’s a funny story about Ginger Rogers: > **[Turner Classic Movies - TCM.com](https://www.tcm.com/404?ReturnTo=http%3A%2F%2Fprod.tcm.com%2Fthis-month%2Farticle%2F289980%257C28098%2FThe-Barkleys-of-Broadway.html)** > > Turner Classic Movies presents the greatest classic films of all time from one of the largest film libraries in the world. Find extensive video, photos, articles, forums, and archival content from some of the best movies ever made only at TCM.com. > [@](#): > > About the only hostility, in fact, came from Judy Garland. It was well known that it was difficult to light Rogers’ face because it was covered with fine, downy hair. Garland sent Rogers a congratulatory bouquet…in a huge shaving mug. Soon after production began, Garland showed up on the set while Rogers was working, and began schmoozing with the cast and crew, causing a commotion. Rogers retreated to her dressing room, and director Charles Walters had Garland physically removed from the set. Interestingly, I have noticed the peach fuzz mostly on blonde women. I wouldn’t call it an attraction deal-breaker per se, but it’s definitely a turn-off. ---

> [@Aeschines](#): > > Interestingly, I have noticed the peach fuzz mostly on blonde women. I wouldn’t call it an attraction deal-breaker per se, but it’s definitely a turn-off. Black-on-light-skin fuzz is a lot more likely to get removed. I’ve got one clear side, one that’s a direct relative of Wolverine, and assorted thick black hairs mixed with the fuzz. Given that waxing (or, once in a blue moon, applying the same razor that’s going to be used elsewhere) works better and is more convenient than plucking, off it all goes. Getting rid of the sideburn only requires one more waxing strip than doing the Cantinflastache. ---

This has to be one of the oddest questions I’ve seen on here. Not necessarily in a bad way, but just because facial fuzz on ladies is something I’ve never noticed or thought about. Is it a thing? Am I simply not paying attention (as usual)? Or have the ladies I’ve interacted with all been in the habit of removing it? What does come to mind is one girl I knew who had noticeable back peach fuzz. Would that be NBPF? Especially near the spine. I found that… weirdly arousing. ---

It’s a mammal thing. So long as facial hair isn’t dreadlocked, I’m fine with it. ---

Personally, I find a hint of a mustache or sideburns shadow incredibly sexy. ---

Hey, as poll suggests, and I voted so, I’d like more flufiless girl. If I could have one. But, I can imagine I’m not the one who will reject nice lady which I can hang to by the beard… (blackadder ftw) ---

I’m 45 and never thought about it until the last 12 months or so, when other threads have popped up here asking other ladies whether they removed facial hair and/or peach fuzz or whatever from their faces. A surprising (to me) number chimed in saying they do a quick hair removal as part of their routine. I have a little, I guess, along lower cheeks and jawline. Never thought about it one way or another. It’s been this long, at my age I can’t be bothered. Maybe if my makeup didn’t work right because of it or something, but it’s fine.
