We as adults have a lot of growing to do when we can’t come to grips with body hair that comes with adulthood. Her man likes it thats all that counts. A lot of you all are mad because you don’t have the courage to do what Monique did because some guy told you he didn’t like your body hair.

I say let it wolf up all outside the bikini line and all down the treasure/happy trail. Mo power to Monique. Peace.

And since most black women tend to fall over themselves believing in the almighty god, then why when god gives you something like excessive body hair, you have the audacity to turn your wide noses up at it??? Let some white man call you a bunch of nappy headed so and so and you get your necks bent all out of shape. How dare you think such nastiness is any better coming from yourselves. You ought to be ashamed.

In response to the comments I’ve read so far all I can say is wow! There is so much negativity towards not shaving legs. If that is the case, then we should pluck out all our eyelashes and nose hairs! Let’s just go bald!

I hate shaving/waxing/or using creams on my legs only to have the hair grow back with scratchy stubble. The irritation is no fun! Neither is possibly harming myself with chemicals that are absorbed into the skin, just to appease the public! Does that make sense? Furthermore, people should be more aware of how other people feel when they make such negative/hurtful comments. I developed a complex about having hair on my legs simply from hearing repeated comments as the individuals have made on this blog. When I want to wear shorts or skirts because it’s 90* degrees outside I always end up wearing jeans because I’m so concerned about the way people will think about my legs.Do you know how nerve racking that is?! I wish I had Mo’nique’s confidence and I’m a slender chic!

People, we have to be concerned about the message we are sending to young girls out here! Did you know that Nair is making a product directed toward tweens and teens. So we must think it’s ok to tell a ten year old,” from birth until 9 your legs are fine, but after 10 your legs are just like men”? That’s a bunch of bull!

Finally, as I end my venting session…I’m thankful my husband has enough God-given sense not to care if I shave or don’t shave, but is only concerned with my happiness. I ask him all the time “Boo, what do you prefer, hair/no hair”?, His answer is always the same, “Woman, I just like yo’ legs”! See, answers like that means he gets some evvvvvvvvery night!

Mo’nique do ya thing.
