Thanks for sharing your perspective Mary Ann. Great point that women are often told body hair is unhygienic, but men have historically not been held up to that same standard. I think things are evolving so that even men are feeling pressured to get rid of their body hair. But I more so just hope that these limiting beliefs are dismantled for all people so that no one feels pressured to do anything they don't want to!
