ALL THE WAY.

Why do men prefer women shaven? The same reasons can apply to why men should go baby smooth – in the name of gender equality, of course.

(PREVIOUSLY DEBATED: Is it better to give or to receive?)

ARTFULLY.

If it's on display, trim it.

Manscaping is a lost art. A recent trip to Istanbul opened my eyes to the aesthetic pleasures of a well-groomed man. If a man’s going to let his forest flourish, at least make it look intentional.

IT'S A CHOICE.

People should be free to do what they want with what sprouts from their bodily follicles, but I must admit: I do an internal double take when faced with what looks like a shag carpet peeking out from the top of necklines — whether front or back.

 

SELECTIVELY.

Men should feel free to remain forested on their arms, legs and pits. I'd like to believe it's among the last semblances of our primal nature that we can proudly display. However, gentlemen, if sweat does get in the way in certain regions, try at least a trim. You won't regret it.
