Passions: The chest hair -- I've figured it out!

[RionPassions]

On today's Canadian episode, I was disturbed to see that cute little Jared had chest hair!

So now I think I've figured out the recent trends in chest hair on Passions---budget cuts!!

Used to be that all the men on Passions had smooth chests. Clearly waxing was in the budget. But obviously it's not anymore. The actors aren't going to pay money from their own pocket to get waxed, which means waxing was cut from the budget.

This is sad!! I like a good, smooth chest. I'd have preferred it if they canned one of the actors if it meant keeping the men nice and smooth and hair-free.

You may actually be in the minority. One site, devoted to posting caps of Passions and other shows, clearly shows a majority trend toward favoring the chest hair...especially on Adrian Bellani.

I'm thinking it's "trend". Just as the "trend" became to longer, shaggy hair a while back, I think chest hair may also be making a return trend.

That said, the currently most impressive chest hair seems to be Bellani's. Fully grown in, this will be full and furry, and frame the chest he obviously spends a lot of time on.

Subjectively, how HORRIBLE it must feel to have this done. The pain, the pain....

Adrian/Miguel's chest hair is the grossest of all....absolutely DISGUSTING! I admit to already FFing through his scenes because I hate Miguel, but the disgusting chest-and-nipple-hair makes me wish it went by a whole lot faster...gross!!!

So far Galen/Luis has the smoothest chest left...I wonder if he's naturally smooth. Oh and same with Eric/Ethan, but we haven't seen him in a while. Actually, Chad and Vincent are still smooth, but maybe that is in the budget for their gay characters.

And waxing your chest feels pretty delicious.

Chest hair seems to be back in, at least amongst gay men. A "manlier" look, shall we say.

[RionPassions]

Eww, I'm gay, but I wax myself if I think someone's going to be seeing my chest. Hairiness is gross and unclean.

...which is why the 'hairy chest' look appeals to so many people. They like the idea of a man looking rough and rugged. It's sort of like seeing a guy covered in grease after working on a car for hours. You know he's dirty and far from clean, but you still wanna jump his bones on the spot seeing him look so filthy. Er, at least that's always been my experience!

[Soapsuds]

Great post Kenny and I totally agree!

[Soapsuds]

Agreed.

Nice to know. I thought you were female.

[RionPassions]

Filthiness is not a turn-on unless you yourself are a filthy pig, in my opinion. (Not "you" specifically, "you" generally)

Cleanliness is next to godliness!

[KMan101]

Are we REALLY having this debate?

[Soapsuds]

You must be a young pup.

I thought the same thing at first. But thought...what the heck!

[KLN]

I'm gonna grow my chest hair really long, then shave it off, collect it in a mason jar and mail it to you.

I don't mind chest hair, but I do mind seeing it being grown out. I love Peter Reckell and (used to) love Drake Hogestyn. I think PR is the sexiest man on daytime has been for a while, but if he waxed it all off, and I had to see it grow in every day, I'd think it was gross.

So, wax it or don't wax it. I don't really care, but cover it up in the mean time, ADRIAN

I think guys with hairy chest are far sexier than those without. Galen has hairy legs that is why I continue to love him. I think its great the guys are being allowed to grow their hair out. More power to them and keep it up.

[RionPassions]

The women are shaving their armpits and legs. The men should have waxed-smooth chests.
