Manscaping

Manscaping: a word to describe mans grooming of his body hair. Like landscaping, but for the body.  Male grooming is not just for cleanliness purposes.  Having no pubic hair is the equivalent of wearing vertical stripes.  It adds the appearance of length.

Personally, I have nothing against chest hair, in moderation.  But the full on gorilla suit can be a turn off.
Even the back hair can be a bit dicey at times.  Men, ask a female friend her advice about your hairiness factor if you have doubt.

Obviously, body hair is a cultural standard.  Europeans are just fine with hair on underarms and legs.  Many Euro women are considered the most beautiful in the world.  While Brazil is the leader in waxing.
American women have made hair removal a multi billion dollar industry.

My Bestie, Jill, tells me the Puerto Rican men are totally hairless. Even their eyebrows are perfectly groomed.  Maybe, this is NuevoRicans only.  She's going to PR soon and I am waiting for the low down. Have a good trip and consider this as cultural research.
