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

[Rhiannon]

Oh dear lord.........

These chest hair threads are too funny though.......

[Soapsuds]

Yes they are. I saw Miguel today. He was shirtless of course. He had some chest hair. And I found him hot...

I will check out Jared tomorrow.

Hairy Kenny would be Kennylicious. Snap those pics before you shave, son!

Rion, it's different strokes for different folks. I personally love hairy chests. It's manly and non-androgynous. You can keep neat, beautiful chest hair without it going overboard. What is more sexy and manly than a guy showing off what God gave him?

I was absolutely heartbroken when I saw that James Scott shaved for DAYS's EJ.

And I hope this is the last chest hair debate. LOL.

[Soapsuds]

Ok..here we go...LOL

or

chest hair vs smooth

You choose. I personally love both. Nothing wrong with a hairy chest.

[Rhiannon]

The guy in the above hairy chest pic looks so aloof.....

I couldn't find a pic of Peter Reckell's hairy chest, so this will have to do......

[RionPassions]

There's nothing intrinsically "manly" about a hairy chest. The amount of hair on a man's chest doesn't speak to the amount of "man" he actually is.

Smooth and soft is beautiful and nicer-looking. Do you like ass hair? Well, chest hair is as gross as ass hair. I hope y'all don't like running your hands through ass hair.

If I may weigh in... because this is too hilarious...

But I don't think manlier as in makes him more of a man, but manlier as in natural. Shaving body hair is usually a "feminine" thing. Women, who are predominantly estrogen based creatures, produce body hair because of testosterone -- so it's only "fitting" that they would wax their legs and shave their armpits.

But why would a man, who is predominantly testosterone based, feel the need to remove the product of his testosterone?

What next? Castration because deep voices aren't viewed as sexy? To each his own, regardless. But every male on soaps have smooth, shaved chests... and it just doesn't look real. They look like plastic Ken dolls. They all have smooth abs, pecs and bulging biceps. And if they don't they all wear sports jackets in the dead of summer to hide their belly like AMC's Tad Martin.

[RionPassions]

But it's not all about biology. It's about what society has deemed as "natural". This is an essentialization, but many Eastern European women don't shave their armpits or legs. Does this mean they are less feminine? They still have the same amount of estrogen as North American women.

It all comes down to taste and what we have been trained to find attractive in society. To me, a hairy guy is a major turn-off. For others, some will think it's the best thing ever. I know where I stand, as well as JER. I am just disappointed that, out of all the budget cuts, waxing had to be one of them. I so looked forward to seeing the smooth-chested men of Passions.

I can't believe this is still going on

[KBT]

I personally don't have chest hair and I will be 25 in a few months, I have like 5 or 6 strands of hair!

I don't care either way if someone has chest hair, I just don't want a bush on any part of anyone's body. MUFF=gross IMO.

[Gray Bunny]

LOL! I'm with you on the smoothness debate. But there's always exceptions... like Peter Reckell, Ricky Paull Goldin, or just a lil' something like Austin Peck's happy trail.

Fun lil' thread.

[KBT]

Rion, I don't know anyone who runs their fingers through ass hair for enjoyment!

[JER Soaps Fan]

I think he's hot too. those BOOBS. Migs' BOOBS make him hot!!!

[RionPassions]

Oh, you traitor!!!!!!!

Besides, Miguel isn't even good looking to begin with! Yuck! Fox is the hunk in this story!!!

[KLN]

Y'know what's really freaky?

When someone shaves their ass cheeks, but not... "inside." It's all smoothe ass, smoothe ass, smoothe ass, then they bend over... SURPRISE! Fur Valley!
