I have no idea what are you talking about? Can you be more specific what is your question exactly?  |
Dirtywater said: I haven't found a topic similar to mine; As a girl, I know how annoying leg hair can be. However, seeing school girls wandering around in short skirts all year round always intrigued me : even in fun, light animes talking about girls problems (even periods or the size of the tit), I haven't seen much about shaving or waxing legs, when it's a huge part in a girls life, since you have to take appointments before the hair grow back, blablabla... In an anime with three girls, a bimbo, a girl from bourgeoisie and an otaku (forgot the name of the anime), shaving has been talked about in one episode, when they were going swimming. In this ecchi anime where the girl wanna have 100 sexfriends, she shave her bikini area as well. But I never heard about leg hair ? My question is not kinky nor feminist, just genuinely curious about why even in trash or open-minded animes, armpit hair is there, bikini hair is there, but no leg hair ?? Well... body hair on women isn't exactly popular among guys. I think that counts for a large part of why you don't see mention of body hair almost ever. Personally I can't remember a single time in any anime I've watched that has referenced armpit, pubic or leg hair on women. Not once. And I'm really happy about that. In fact it makes me wonder if that's a big part of the appeal of anime girls. I've long thought the fact that they are drawn with perfect skin is part of it but didn't factor in the lack of body hair. The last part of your question though... I can't say I've seen any mention of armpit or bikini (I assume you mean pubic?) hair at all so if it is the case that leg hair is under-represented compared to those other two then I couldn't really explain why. Possibly because pubic hair has a lewdness to it and armpit hair has a kind of comedy to it, but leg hair? It's just kind of... a thing. Not very interesting. That would be my guess. For the same reason I don't predict this post will gain much traction by the way haha but hey I'll give you a detailed reply, why not. |

| Naisho no Tsubomi talks about body hair (armpit and pubic) in one of chapters, I can't remember if the OVA adaptation included it. But yeah, I haven't seen any anime girl with leg hair. And if you've been looking in ecchi anime then, unless there's some weird leg hair fetish you most probably will never see it. deg said: You need a reality check, my friend.my guess is because leg hairs on asian girls are like rare |

| Never seen one around here, or pretty sure they've made sure to kill it with kindness. |
| Has there ever been an ecchi series where the girls have pubic hair? |
 |
| Probably because it's so culturally normal not only in Japan but around the world that it's ugly or improper on women, and the vast majority of the anime audience is men, even if directed at women (i haven't watched those anime so i'm assuming) i would say it has some to do with how it's already expected of them so it shouldn't even come up. I guess that would mean a certain taboo? Just spit balling.

| Maybe it's not the topic that general audience wants to be reminded of. I don't see much of it outside anime either. I can only suggest you manga Sweet Poolside, there's a lot of shaving going on there (it might appear kinky but actually is about accepting yourself). |

| OP coz leg hair ain't big among guys I guess? Well atleast for me that's the case. NexivSelecaf said: Has there ever been an ecchi series where the girls have pubic hair? The only ecchi anime with pubic hair I can remember is Green Green. Maybe the bath scene in Gunbuster as well(? not sure tho). Apart from ecchi, I guess Perfect Blue. |
 |
| A better question would be why are leg hairs relevant to mention? It grows, you shave it, right? |

| I have a feeling that shaving body hair and shaving leg hair sorta...one of those things that people do but is rarely portrayed in entertainment. Kinda like how RPG houses don't have bathrooms. Heck, I think it's rare even for men to be shaving on-screen. also what the flying frack is a "genderfag"? Does this have something to do with the gender of gay people, or is this just 4chan lingo sticking "-fag" onto random words? |

I think someone has found a new word that they think is cool. They replied to me using the word 7 times and I still don't know what they were trying to say. |

| 1) Body hair on women isn't popular 2) Asians dont have much body hair 3) Your welcome |
 |
| I don't think body hair is really a necessary thing to show in anime unless it's being used for some kind of comedic effect. |
| East asian women specifically have so little leg hair shaving isn't a generally a major hygiene or beauty focus even jokingly. That being said anime characters don't reference shaving legs because in real life they generally don't have to and your focus on being relatable wouldn't really make sense. Unlike the other two categories of body hair you listed that tend to grow more commonly or at least to a point where they're visible thus justifying the focus on shaving. |

Dirtywater said: Social pressure is taken, not given.You guys do realize that Japan is a conservative country, and that young girls have the societal pressure to wax or shave right? And you go realize that japanese girls that Japanese girls are quiete hairy ? And you do realize that some young girls could need to hear from a fictional character a small "uhh I hate wax it hurts so much! " and that'd be it ? And you do realize that young boys in Japan don't necessarily realize the struggle for japanese girls ? No, the struggle for weak "Japanese girls" that for whatever reason decide to follow this so-called "social pressure"; there is no law that requires one to; one does out of one's own volition.I have no sympathy for this any more than I have for tobacco addicts; it's easy to choose to not to. And that I put in my post that I was a girl to avoid looking like a creep but that I never said that you had to wax nor to shave? You said "It's a huge part of a girl's life" it has nothing to do with a so-called "girl"; it has to do with being a weakling. |

| @op keep yo nasty fetishes to yoself bitchplz! Anime girls are perfect 2D>3d Goddesses and not some under-evolved monkeyasses to have body hair. in case you didnt notice, except in 1 singular case, men dont have gross body hair either. Anime is perfect, unlike this crap world with hairy shit ppl in it. real no "REAL" humans are quite gross and disgusting, thats why evryone wants to go in an anime isekai. |

And that I put in my post that I was a girl to avoid looking like a creep but that I never said that you had to wax nor to shave? You do realize that Japan isn't the only country that likes shaved women and have women who don't want hairy bodies, right? That's a standard that exists in all kinds of society. And you do also realize that all women are different, right, so not ALL Japanese girls struggle with body hair? And you do realize that women likely have bigger issues going on than shaving, right? They even have bigger issues in the body care topic that trump the "shave struggle" any day. XD XD And, thus I stand by my comment; why is it relevant? If you're hairy, you just shave. If anything a lot of Japanese shaving products have ingredients that slow down hair growth so they don't have to do it so often. They don't even go "all the way" like a good amount of western girls do. The only difference I notice is that it's not uncommon to shave the face, but they do that for smoother skin, not because of hair. |

| Body or leg hair, it doesn't matter, what bothers me is the lack of pubic hair of anime characters! |

| That's easy. Maybe Japanese girls don't as often get hairy legs. Even the men are not often very hairy. It's just not something every Japanese person would think of. |
| @Dirtywater The anime you are thinking of is probably B Gata H Kei. |

PeppermintHearts said: Body or leg hair, it doesn't matter, what bothers me is the lack of pubic hair of anime characters! Well, there's plenty of that in Hentai anime, at least...not that i'd know much about it (>_>) |
| It's simple: it looks messy when drawn. Old, sloppy characters tend to have leg hair just to show how sloppy they are. Also, I shouldn't need to explain this, but anime design tends to be heavily stylized. Maybe you've noticed that noses in anime are either not there at all or are just a dot on the face (not at all time, but still(. |
