    I must say there are some perks to having to take a chemo drug! Yeah, I lost my hair and looked like the sister to Fester, but the hair everywhere else fell out too!! We are part Indian so didn't have to shave much anyways, but now it is ALL GONE!! No shaving for me ever! It is so nice!!! No monthly bill..no shaving....there is a silver lining to everything if you just look for it!! I no longer look like Fester, the hair on top of the head grew back...but no where else!

    The only reason I wax my legs in the winter is because a friend of mine (who's a nurse) said if you end up in a cast it itches like crazy (winter-ice/snow/slippery walks). No itchy casts for me LOL!!!!!!

    My legs itch if I don't shave them. So I do every... single day...year round. I can't stand not to.

    I'm married to a Sicilian, so he couldn't care less if I stopped. I epilate, hurts like hell the first time or so, but then you get used to it.

    I am sorry but the thought of hairy legs is just..........not right, but this is a guys perspective.

    Now when I worked out all the time (20's through my middle 30's) and according to my wife, had a body of a "God" I used to shave my entire body. My wife used to love to show me off to all of her friends at the country club and parties we went to. She said I was her arm candy LOL, but she was a pretty hot female type herself.

    Of course after 25 almost 26 years of marriage and a couple of kids later we are not the hotties we used to be by far, but she is still the most beautiful woman I know!!!

    Gravity is a bitch LOL.............Maybe this is turning into athe Bobbie Thread. :roll: :mrgreen:

    Remember when someone told you to avoid using terms like "never", "everyone", and "always"?...lol Trust me, they aren't always dark black....now, don't ask me how I know...
