Arm Hair (Or Lack Thereof)

Arm Hair (Or Lack Thereof)

What is it with guys in New Jersey shaving/waxing their body hair? I am so sick of Jersey guys rubbing up against me in bars with their prickly arms. I’ve started to notice that every time I meet a new guy, my eyes immediately dart to his forearm for the Hair Presence Check. I’ve also started to notice that the result of the HPC is often negative. I just don’t understand the point. If you are a guy, you have arm hair — get over it, and leave it there. If you wax it, it will eventually start growing back, and every girl you touch will be disgusted when you brush up against her because your arm feels like a cactus or a rare breed of porcupine.
