[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I occasionally see women who don’t shave their armpits, but I have never once thought it was a “statement.” Not everything is a message to you personally, OP! My goodness, what a way to view how other people choose to…be.[/quote]

If it weren't a statement, the press would cover it. For example, Rachel McAdams has disappeared from the limelight. So in order to reappear in a way that got attention, she added... armpit hair.

Here is Vanity Fair, totally not noticing the armpit hair:  https://www.vanityfair.com/style/2023/04/rachel-mcadams-armpit-hair-photos

Here is E!, quoting McAdams explaining the statement behind her armpit hair: https://www.msn.com/en-us/lifestyle/lifestyle-buzz/why-rachel-mcadams-wanted-to-show-her-armpit-hair-and-body-in-all-its-glory/ar-AA1a4B1u

Here is Vogue, explaining the armpit hair trend and the statement of confidence it makes:  https://www.vogue.com/article/celebrities-who-dont-shave-underarm-hair-julia-roberts-madonna-sophia-loren-lola-kirke

So yeah, it's totally just me. Armpit hair in glamorous places is just soooo common, I'm a weirdo for noticing it. Right. [/quote]

I know zip about Rachael McAdams because I don't look at glossy magazines, gossip news sites, or celebrity news in any format. Have you tried reading real newspapers, books, or nonfiction works? Spend more time reading the New York Times and you may be able to do the crossword in that publication instead of the one in Us Weekly. Challenge yourself! [/quote]

May I one day be as cultured as you, to spend my time on a fashion forum explaining how strenuously I ignore pop culture.  [/quote]

Talking about armpit hair isn't "fashion." I'd be happy to talk with you about my favorite designers and the best fashion shows I've been to. Photographers, makeup artists, products, jewelry, let's go. Armpit hair most directly relates to *hygiene,* not *fashion,* so perhaps the Health Forum is where you should be engaging in this elevated discourse. [/quote]
