I may be misinformed, or biased, if so, I apologize beforehand.
It is my experience and by that I mean really close family, that a large majority of lesbians don't buy the hetero normative views of body hair. By this I mean, no armpit shave, no pubic hair shave (at most some taming, but some times no effort is made), no leg shaving. They not only don't care, from what I've been told, they even specifically enjoy it. Obviously, like almost anything, tastes vary. I don't think it is a hard requirement in their community (again, if I'm wrong, I apologize) but, it makes a lot more sense than ALL of them sporting bare pussies, shaved legs and bare armpits and so on (there's more places with hair on the woman body) considering that that specific practice is a male oriented beauty torture.
As a male that doesn't shave, detests cutting his hair, I have no problem with body hair. Actually, no, I have a problem against subjecting anyone to that torture in an effort to please ME. If a woman can't please me without grooming her body hair, does she really pleases me, or am I liking an illusion?
Why should Lesbians that have no interest in pleasing males, go to that trouble?
