every time a man assumes I'm a tradwife type because of how I dress, I just want to be like "at any given time it's been an average of three weeks since I last shaved my armpits. sometimes longer"
#personal#historybounding#body hair#hey it's historically accurate! because weirdly enough sleeveless evening gowns DO predate widespread armpit hair removal#for western women#or short sleeves that could ride up and expose the hair#the Victorians just...don't seem to have cared really? I've yet to find an actual objection to armpit hair on women#as for legs I gave up on those years ago#the amount I care about my body hair is nil#I care about my head hair and my skincare and my clothes#body hair is just like. oh. it's there. whatever#it was good enough for my style icons. I'm an adult woman so there's going to be body hair. what do you want from me.
