Yes we all have beards. But what about below the neck line? Some nudists don't think they are truly naked untill all the body hair is removed. Call them Smooth. Yes even with beards. Others see nudism (or naturism) as only natural, with nature's body hair. Call them Furry. I've been smooth but now I'm furry.

Which are you? Oh, and there is a third option - body hair but no pubic hair.

    Well arn't we a quiet lot. Around 100 in the group and 34 looked at this string but only one reply. Good for you The Earth Bear.

    Well, We are nudists so it should be there for all to see. I did my own survey. Of those of us with open photos, the vast majority (four out of every five of us) keep our body hair along with our beards. What else would we expect. .

    Well I've gone against the trend. I'm naturally very hairy. But at Christmas I fancied a change. I took it all off. Now there isn't a single hair anywhere on my body. I shave from the neck down every morning.

    Update, still no body hair after nerely 3 months.

    I prefer to be smooth below the chin.  As a matter of fact I don't have very much hair to shave on my body Arms and legs are more of a chore, but they are quickly done in the shower.  The reason for shaving for me is that I like the way the muscles look under the skin.  It's nice to be defined and it feels sexy.

    FURRY. Definitely.I am bearded and have very much hair on my arms, chest, pubic region , ass, and legs. I like the feel and look of it.I shaved my arms, chest and pubes some years back, and I felt the resulting look was not attractive on me. As the hair grew back, the stubble was very irritating. When I go to naked resorts, I sometimes feel like an anomaly---being the one of the few hairy guy amidst a bunch of shaved bodies.  I like displaying all my man-fur, though. Its distinctive and very male.  If someone makes a negative comment about all my fur, I have the perfect reply for them that makes them retreat instantly.

    [/quote]That was then (8 months ago). This spring I started shaving my body again every morning. Full beard and totally smooth from the neck down. I did a sort of survey on the beach at Cap d'Agde. All the women were shaved. Of 200+ men I observed, well over two thirds shaved their pubes, including a few with otherwise hairy bodies. They (and their bits) were all shapes and sizes.

  • I trim my beard for the corporate fashion cops. Years ago used to pluck my ball sack, but speaking of maintenance... Jeez... I barely have time to shower. But that's another topic! Nope, my pubes are as long as they get, as grey as they get, and as frightening as a die-hard smoothie could ever imagine!

    Clipped below, I do a fade from my chest down to my pubic.  I shave the shaft and balls.  I also had one laser treatment down there so far.

Have tried - I came out looking like Ho Chi Min. I have hardly any bodyhair. What I have I don't shave. Does that make me a "smoothie" with pubeshair? There's actually a fourth option - no bodyhair 'n shaved pubes. I think I stick to what I've got :-)

    If I could put fertilizer on my body hair to enhance its growth, I certainly would! I'm not furry, but I'm definitely not smooth. My skin doesn't feel sticky when I grow my body hair out, so my body hair feels more pleasant than being smooth.

    Except for my job, keeping my beard trim(I work in a kitchen) and having a hair cut once a month(also because of my job) I don't shave. I can't help but wonder why, having read many of the posts in this group, why do men shave their bodies?  And more to my surprise why their genitals too? I cannot figure out that one.
    Can someone explain this strange phenomena to me?  Has it something to do with marketing, advertising or is it taught?

    After trying various forms of hair removal I now have a full body wax roughly every five weeks. I just had the third one. It is quite relaxing despite the obvious pain as the hairs are uprooted. It's like e three-hour pampering session. It always ends with the intimate waxing in which she expertly handles my private parts to deprive them of any hairs. It has me wondering why she covers them with a towel when working on other parts of my body.

    I have very little body hair, tried shaving a few times and just didn't see enough point in it to keep doing it. Too much work for too little a result. I have always been able to grow hair on my head but I have always wished I had more body hair. Mu kids used to think it was funny to count the hair on my chest...once they found 13. My beard is coming in white, the pubes are definitely grey (and even there the hair is minimal) and what little hair is on my arms and legs only shows up in the sun.

    I have a friend who is hairy and I've always been a little jealous of that. I don't have it, won't have it and can't be bothered removing the little bit that is there. I am quite content to just leave things as they are and work on other things that I can change...

    I am hairy on most parts of my body. Men love my hairy chest, but over the past couple of years, the beard has covered most of my chest. Beard is about a foot long,

    Could the moderator take the above post, along with this one down? I did not plan for the protest photos to be included.
