its not a myth. itll make the hairs come out rigid and prickly. dont shave. plus later on youll end up having to shave every other day.
I believe the fact that you have to shave more and more frequently doesn't relate to shaving, but rather to the fact that your body is producing more and more hormones, which causes hair to grow in thicker. I remember when I was in 5th grade and had that furry little wanna be mustache. I didnt shave it until 7th grade, but it still kept getting thicker, and I started growing hair on my chin as well. However, when you initially start shaving, of course you may suffer from ingrown hairs because hair is rather "sharp" and may grow back into the skin.
Shaving your body hair is much like CUTTING your hair. It doesn't cause it to grown quicker, or thicker. It grows at much the same rate as if you didn't shave. Look at an average grown man who has NEVER shaved in their life, and they will have a large amount of facial hair, probably long as f*ck. If you can provide SCIENTIFIC proof that shaving makes your hair grow "thicker and quicker" then I'll be happy to read it.
As for this whole "gay" thing, I shave due to the fact that I hate hair. I don't care how "feminine" you guys think it is. I would much rather be muscular and smooth, than muscular and hairy. Shaving allows for multiple benefits, such as not leaving my women with a mouth full of hair, and making my 6-pack wanna be more visible. If you don't do it, thats fine. However, for those guys who DO want to, its much like hair cuts. Some guys prefer to have longer hair, some prefer to have shorter hair, while some prefer to be bald. It's their choice. Doesn't make you "gay" or "girly". Having sex with a man makes you "gay", wearing womens clothes, eyeliner, lipstick and high heels makes you "girly". Not shaving body hair. I understand that many of you have your opinions and that's fine. Go ahead and offer them. However, don't become offended (not that any of you have) if somebody comes in and counters them.
Thanks for reading that guys, now I have to go take a monster piss.
