Gone forever are the days of young men lounging around swimming pools like baby seals, ever so tenderly massaging coconut oil onto their glistening, glabrous pecs ... chest hair is back!Okay, maybe not forever. But at least for a little while, there will be significantly more body hair to sweep off the red carpet at the end of the night. Trend-spotters have taken notice of the pelt's resurgence after the naming of actual-wolverine Hugh Jackman as the sexiest man alive in People magazine, and the loving, extended shots of Jon Hamm's sprawling nipple cozy on "Mad Men."
Observers have suggested that the trend's source may lie in the increased appeal of the archetypal Manly Man in times of financial hardship. Depending on your tastes, the return of Burly may be a blessed reprieve from costly, over-hyped metrosexual preening.
Perhaps thinking he'd hop on this "natural-look" train, chest-hairless Brad Pitt recently announced his goal to bring back the Moustache (foofy spelling intentional). We say: Nice try, Brad -- it would take at least 35 of your "moustaches" to equal the mighty chest hair of our babydaddy Clive Owen. Come back when you've got something a girl can lose her rings in.

Girls, if you don't like hair on your men, Maybe you really want another girl. Men if you are shaving your body for girls, Maybe you should be checking out boys. MAN UP! the world needs more men. For grooming and other tips check out Clint Eastwoods newest movie : Gran torino. (Which is a mans car unlike a toyota)

Men - women HATE the hairy chests and mustaches! Keep waxing and lasering your chests and backs men! Women like you smooth! Don't think so? Then maybe you men should consider your preference for a landing strip or none at all... point proven. Keep it smooth guys, keep it smooth!

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!! nasty, for one and for another...
If you don't like a hairy woman, then she best not shave, until YOU SHAVE. I don't care, my husband knows if he's not done, mine isn't either, too damn bad. He always shaves now,

Fact of the matter is; I like having a mustache. If there are women out there who dislike a mustache? Well, their not for me... It really matters little to those of use who have hair on our upper lip or our chests whether any of you approve or not. You all need to get a life, because there are bigger fish to fry than hair.

I never have shaved and NEVER WILL shave any part ot me other than my face. If a woman doesn't want me to a real man then she should go and find a real woman. I REAL man would not shave his privates, or his chest for that matter.

I LOVE mustaches and I like chest hair, but anything more than that is a no. I don't want to hug a man-bear. Luckily for me, my boyfriend doesn't have a back hair problem. But if you do men, shave the back, dont' worry about the front.

It's about time it became "fashionable" again. I for one would never ever shave, wax, whatever method to get rid of my chest hair or facial hair. IT"S JUST NOT NATURAL to get rid of it! Some people like body hair, some do not. This is one thing, I feel, does not belong in "the line of fashion!"

All those guys without body hair look gay! Its like looking at a woman. Its just not attractive. Plus the hairless guy trend is terrible for our sons. Instead of being proud of growing up, my son has plucked or shaved every hair he gets. Why should boys have to do that?!? Its not natural or normal.

Absolutely nothing sexier than a man covered in hair. It is so masculine and so sexy, and the contrast to my smooth skin is such a turn on. Keep it guys.

Yes shaving anything but your face IS gay... also it will grow back stronger and thicker. This is a fact, no one should argue it. Oh and m-girl, landing strips are awesome, so stop being so damn presumptuous!! We men must stand up and not bend to womens' flittering and fashion dictated tastes! If Cosmo declares hairiness is 'in' next month, and your girlfriend has recently emasculated you by nagging you into shaving/waxing/plucking won't you feel pretty dumb? Why should we feel obliged as men to follow in the path of degenerate pornstars, who in general started out in gay porn? Natural is the way to go, you ladies are just pissed because society dictates you shave all that hair lest you be considered nasty by your peers... Don't drag us in to your stupid games.

when i was a teen, i thought hairy chests were weird; i guess i thought that b/c all those quasi-pubescent guys i went to high school with were little hairless wonders. Now I'm in my 20s and think chest hair is a refreshing break from all this metrosexual crap; i think it's very sexy and feels good to cuddle up to at night. It makes them look more like men and less like boys. You also see a lot of leading men who are going the way of Hugh Jackman: Paul Rudd, Seth Rogen, James Franco, Emile Hirsch, Josh Brolin, etc...keep it coming, guys!

MEN are suppose to have chest/facial hair. Little Boys are hairless,,,, Did a whole generation miss the sexed class on puberty?
I have found the hairless "trend" for the last couple of years very disturbing, after a psychologist friend stated that there is a debate as to whether the hairless look is the beginning of the acceptance of pedophilia...... if one sees no difference physically in a childs body and an adults body....... well you get the picture...
This also applies to the "bare" woman.

WOW!!!!!!
I could'nt of said it better myself, you are right on with that comment!.
IT"S VERY DISTURBING, UNNATURAL.
Youth's now and days think that is the norm to shave ot trim those areas.
That's what they see all over on the net.
PEOPLE.... Hate to be the barrier of Bad News, So "Men" Shave or TRIM only your face.
And "Women" Your Arm pits and legs.

my preference is not so much for one or the other, but whatever is natural for the guy. hairy as a human satyr? awesome. you can count his chest hairs on one hand? that's just fine too. you know what's NOT sexy? rubbing up against some guys arm/chest/leg/crotch stubble. been there, and no thanks. keep it natural guys, please! (and galls too, but that's another rant.)

Bottom line, hairless men are women without boobs. If hair wasn't supposed to be there, it wouldn't grow there. Sorry but the "Metrosexuality" craze is ruining true men! Leave all that garbage for people like Ryan Seacrest. Hairless out --------->

Wow you people who say shaving hair is gay are pretty disturbing. I think people can and should grooom themselves however they want. Also, if shaving is unnatural, then should women let it all grow out too? I hope not. Anyway, humans have less and less hair growth through evolution, so us shavers are a glimpse into the future. Hopefully time will weed out biased F*CKS like you people by then.

Yuck ..... Watch a guy with a moustache eating anything with mayonnaise or whipped cream on it.. Sorry it's not a turn on for me. And chests which looks like bear pelts .... Ughhhhh .....
I like my men smooth and squeaky clean. Long hair on the head is a terrific turn on, So are nice lips and a smooth skin. No stubble for me. And please, no smells ....
I'm a normal very passionate lady who loves sex ... and men .... but forget the cave man look. Yuck .......
