Poll: Most men
Embarrassed by Body Hair; Many avoid Gym, sex, swimming because of it
Over half of men admit to feeling “embarrassed” about their body hair, new research has found.
The fascinating statistic emerged in a survey of 2,000 men that found that 55 percent of all respondents said they felt ashamed of their body hair, with one in five saying they feel this way “often.”
The new study, conducted by OnePoll on behalf of BAKblade, also revealed that this embarrassment may cause some men hesitation when it comes to certain activities. For example, nearly one-third of men surveyed (31 percent) said they’ve avoided swimming out of embarrassment over their body hair, while another one in four (27 percent) said they’ve avoided the gym.
Startlingly, men are so unconfident in their body hair, nearly one in five feel it’s had a negative impact on their sex life.

I understand that, I love my chest and leg hair, but my back hair has made me self conscious, since it developed. I Nair at least twice a month.

Well, that settles it.
Men have officially become WOMEN.
Goddamned pussies.

If my back looked like the guy in OP’s pic, I’d be embarrassed too.

I love all body hair including back. The more the better. So sexy.

I'd rather a guy be 'too hairy' than be a completely hairless plucked chicken.

R1 Don't know if they disaggregated the survey responses... but of the 55% who were embarrassed I'd bet that higher percentage had back/shoulder hair. I can't see 55% of men embarrassed about their chest hair.

Laser hair removal is really not that expensive.

They sound like insecure teenaged girls.
That's the REAL reason they're not getting laid.

Isn't there a back shaver you can get for those hard to reach areas?
