13 shaving/body hair struggles women know all too well
1. There is nothing more tedious than shaving under your arms.
Ugh, this again.
2. And nothing more disheartening than when the stubble seems to reappear instantly.

3. We all know that feeling when you let your ~growth~ get to a point where you have no choice but to act like you’re deliberately making a feminist statement.
“I didn’t shave under my arms because of… the patriarchy. It’s definitely not ’cause I’m cold and lazy.”
4. You’ll never forget the day you discovered your first nipple hair.
Oh great, another thing I get to tend to for the rest of my life! What a blessing it is to be a woman.
5. Or the moment you realised that your big toe would require maintenance every now and again.

7. Wanting to have smooth, dolphin legs but not being arsed to actually do it = your greatest struggle.
“I’ll just wear tights today instead.”
8. If you have to read one more article like this, you’ll scream.

9. In fact, you find the whole debate about whether to go bald or au naturel down there a little tiresome
How about we just let women do whatever the hell they like and not analyse it to death, yeah? (And that goes for women judging other women, too.)
10. Whenever you read headlines like this, you’re like, “You’re grand”
Shaving your entire body on a regular basis is time-consuming enough, so I think I’ll pass on shaving my face and age badly. Thanks, though!

THE WORST.
