I don't shave. I haven't shaved my legs in over a year and my pits for a month or so now. I want to give a shout out to @papa_smoke_76 for enduring me in this adventure. He has been nothing but patient and loving through this. I'm choosing not to shave for personal reasons. Nothing political. I'm not standing up for injustice or anything like that.
I don't shave my legs because I can feel the hair grow back and it itches something fierce. I've woken up to open sores on my shins due to scratching in the middle of the night. That sucks. The last time I had to deal with such unloveliness was a year ago. I went to California and shaved for the occasion. I even joked with my mom (@debkatz) saying "Look...I shaved just for you". That's when she told me it was okay not to shave. It's a personal choice. And y'all know once you get Mommy's approval, it's on! So I stopped shaving my legs.
I haven't shaved my pits because I haven't had the money to get a good or even a cheap razor. Or should I be honest and say haven't WANTED to spend the money on razors. I just don't see the need. This is also a personal decision. My hubby doesn't like it, I'll tell you that. I just don't want to spend money on something I'm gonna use every couple weeks. It doesn't compute. Not when we need to save every dime for rent, utilities and food. Little things like razors get forgotten.
I like this new me anyway. I feel more confident and proud. It's weird I know. Not normal. Well, let me the first to tell you I'M NOT NORMAL!

I don't think that is weird at all I would rather date a woman that doesn't shave at all because seriously I'm not trying to say this weirdly but I don't want a Barbie doll I want someone that feels like they don't have to shave at all it's kind of one of my pet peeves I hate it when when a woman shaves and you're not weird or not normal you are normal like honestly I think that's pretty cool that you came open and told people this I really do with much love and care
