I started shaving mine several months ago, when I found out my DH's male friend shaved his. I then took a good look at my arms and realized they looked kinda furry. My DH thought I was nuts, but I shaved them anyway. Ever since, I'm kind of addicted to it.
If my arms were hairy I would shave them for sure..guys I work with shave their arms. I really hate body hair except on the top of your head so the less hair the better as far as I am concerned!
Actually, I had a friend that would shave her arms, she said she liked them being smooth and hairless. I can understand if she had a lot of arm hair or it were very dark.
ahahaha, I shave my feet too, so I am normal!
Years ago I worked for this woman. One day we were in a meeting and she was writting something on a note pad. I looked down and noticed that she had stubble on her arms. It was probably between 1/8 and 1/4 of an inch. All I could think was "ick." I mean if you are going to shave you arms you have to keep up with it or wear long sleeves. At least if you have stubble on your legs you can wear pants to cover it.
The hair on my arms is very light and I have never been tempted to shave it.
I don't see anything wrong with having hair on your arms. Most people do and it's pretty much just a waste of time to shave it all off. And arm hair usually isn't even that noticeable on most people anyway!
I have never heard of such a thing. My DD17 has not, either. Maybe cause we are blond with little hair...I don't know. I agree that armpits and legs are enough to keep up with. Heck, I complain cause in spring/summer you have to do it every few days where as in winter I am spoiled and only shave once a week

I have to say this is a first for me, I never heard of this before. I am glad I am blonde and can barely see my arm hair because I hate shaving and adding yet another place to shave would drive me nuts.
And yes, most european woman do not shave and I just think it is gross. (A lot in Italy do not use deodorant either). I can't stand seeing a bush under someones arms when they wear a sleeveless shirt or swimsuit, it just turns my stomach. JMHO.
