Appreciate the humor but of course razors existed in those days. The cutthroat kind at least.

Same reason most men shave haha

I guess this is the feeling men have when they try to grow a beard and find out they are one of the ones who can't do a decent job of it.

😭😭😭 yes

FWIW I’m amab and I have a similar soul patch of armpit hair, so you’re at least at parity with a dude. Just the way it be sometimes 😭

I also can’t grow facial hair, but that’s a separate question

For whatever it's worth, your comment still challenges me. I know it's a "me" problem to prefer shaven, but...I struggle with it. So, at the very least, please know that you thoroughly confronted me with your womanhood.

As someone else who doesn't shave the armpit, my experience is similar. Less of a soul patch and more of a threadbare patch of dying grass though.

I wonder if it gets thicker as you get older, the way beards do? Beard hair doesn't just start up, it gets thicker over time.

🤣🤣🤣😂😂

I don't know if this is any consolation but I've got a long and bushy beard. I'm so hairy that if I walk naked in the woods people will report big foot sightings.

My armpit hair is still thin, though.

One of my favorite insults is to call someone a merkin

It's called a shitpost, mom. All the cool kids are doing it.

The Wuthering Heights director Emerald Fennell said it was “unfortunate” that a scene showing Margot Robbie’s hairy armpits did not make the final cut, because women in period adaptations are often shown with clean-shaven underarms.

Robbie’s character, Cathy, had “extremely hairy armpits” in the 2026 adaptation of the novel, but “unfortunately the scene that we see them didn’t make it in there”, said the director.

Cathy having unshaven pits “was so important to me”, she said, adding that she often wonders “where are the razors that these women are using?” when watching Jane Austen adaptations.

“They’re all kind of hairless like eels. I’m like: ‘What’s going on? It’s completely mad.’”

I think something pretty normal and understandable that people – who are used to being bombarded by other, very vocal, people's paraphilias online – will immediately and erroneously assume is something sexual.

Should I tell you that women naturally have hair on their armpits

New?
