Yeah, I’m hairy! So what? Everytime I go to the bar or club, I do not need to be reminded I’m hairy. I fucking know it you morons. I do not need to be told about the waxing, about depilatories, about Aussie nads or whatever the fuck you think would get rid of my hair. I do not need you yanking on my chest hair. I am sick of talking about hair. If you want to talk to me about hair, then I only want to hear the following five words: “I think hair is sexy.” Otherwise, shut the fuck up and go find some smooth boy to enjoy your smoothness with. Fucko off! ---

I think hair _is_ sexy. Sorry some people are being inconsiderate vermin to you. ---

I think guys with hair are pretty. Then again, I think guys without hair are pretty. Really, I just think guys are pretty. (well, some guys.) ---

You all realize that you guys are in the minority, don’t you? What chops my crawdad is that I’m not even hitting on these people. They come up to me, and then start making a point about the hair. Yesterday, somebody said I was “hairy like a monkey.” Ok, now comparing a person to a monkey is just rude (I’m not even going to get into the implications of calling a racial minority a monkey). > [@](#): > > By the by… you could always show the other 'mos of the board what they’ve been missing out on by sending in a pic and profile.

Count me in as another one that _loves_ hairy, furry guys. My husband has hair all over, and has gotten into the habit of shaving his back. :mad: I hate that! Makes it all bristly and scratchy up against my legs… um…oh never mind. ---

I don’t find hairy guys all that attractive, but if he was smart and made me laugh, I think the hair could grow on me. Metaphorically speaking. But I can’t imagine walking up to a complete stranger and commenting on their body hair. Are gay guys THAT different from straight women? This IS still appallingly rude for them, right? ---

> [@](#): > > This IS still appallingly rude for them, right? Yes. In the sense that the people who do this know full well they are being rude (IMO). They just don’t care. Sometimes I think there are people who once they decide it’s ok for them to be gay, they also decide it’s ok for them to be assholes as well. And there’s a lot of them. I don’t even really show off my hair. Last night I was wearing slacks and a long-sleeve shirt. But unless I’m wearing a turtle-neck, there’s always gonna be some chest hair visible. ---

See, I’ve learned that the stereotypical Twinks are so utterly inconsequential and shallow and vapid that any of those momentary passing neural flutterings that mimic thought in their empty little heads are completely meaningless. So they rarely bother me anymore, even when they try. I just imagine what the world would be like if all gay men were wax-happy freaks who’d rather spend their entire lives sculpting their bodies to look like Ken dolls than have an actual life. And then I laugh. ---

May I yank on your chest hair if it would really really get me hot? Because it would really _really_ get me hot. ---

Well let me jump in as a currently non-fuzzy (unless you count a treasure trail as particularly fuzzy) guy who does not wax to say I would never call anyone with hair a “monkey” or otherwise insult them. Its ridiculous. Is a lot of hair particularly sexy to me? No, not really, but as someone else said if you made up for it in other ways its not a huge turn-off either. Plus, a good physique and interesting face covereth a multitude of sins in the shallow side of my book 🙂 Its all about diff’rent strokes for diff’rent folks. Any gay guy who can’t get that clue into their head needs a good smack upside the same. ---

I guess I just find it really irritating, since it happens every time I go out. Every single time, at least once during the night. > [@](#): > > May I yank on your chest hair if it would really really get me hot? > > Because it would really really get me hot. Promises, promises. ---
