my mom says laser hair removal for men on the chest is only for gays?

Males are having all sorts of cosmetic procedures done to improve their looks and to also keep themselves looking youthful. Young men are shaving their legs, dyeing their hair, having facials etc. which were once seen as only things females did. The world is changing and men are no longer obsessed with looking masculine and ugly.

I agree with you as I think hairy chests are ugly and obviously your mother has old fashioned ideas of what men should be. I doubt you will be disowned because you had your chest hair removed so if you think it will make you look sexier then go get it done. You can always shave it and see how you look and how your mother reacts before you take the plunge with laser hair removal.

I think you have a very strange take on the world! The only guys I know who have had laser hair removal on their chest are a couple of amateur and semi-pro body builders! Most guys; straight, gay, and everything in-between, do nothing more than keep what they have trimmed if necessary!

Now, back hair - that's another issue!

Absolutely not. Removing chest hair is so in, even for straight guys.

Body hair is caused by testosterone. This is the hormone that makes a man male. It gives us body hair, muscles, a deeper voice, baldness (if we have lots of it), and virility. The more we have, the more "male" we are. Body hair (and baldness) is nature's way of showing who is the most virile. Why any man would want to remove it is beyond me!

What your mom actually is saying is that she likes your chest hair. Nothing you can do to your body to make you gay. Either your are born gay or not.

dude, you have these conversations with your mom?? Obviously anytime a generalization is made like that, it is wrong. Think about it, you;re not gay and you thought about doing it. Who's to say there aren't thousands of other straight men with the same idea.

I had it done today, and I prefer women.
