[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It shouldn't matter, but someone will likely judge her for it. She should know that and decide herself whether it's worth it to her to conform to other people's grooming standards. [/quote]

NP. As the mother of a teen daughter who does not shave, I'm pretty sure OP's daughter is already aware and are already deciding for themselves. These are strong-minded, confident young women who are comfortable with who they are and how they look and don't see a good reason to acquiesce to "just because that's what others do."  Those qualities are far more important and admirable than whether or not they have hairy legs.

I wish my daughter would shave; but I'm learning that it's my comfort - not hers - at stake. I'm the one worried about her being judged or peers being turned off by it, not her.  So even though it's not my standard or preference, I'm trying to let her be her. Still, I really wish she'd at least shave those armpits - ugh! But since men don't have to do that, I'm doing my best to not be bothered by her not doing it.[/quote]
