"Unicorn Armpit Hair" Is the Best Beauty Trend of 2019 So Far

It's 2019. We need to stop shaming women who refuse to succumb to stereotypical gender norms-women have every right to embrace their body hair. Gloriously, the first month of the new year has been dubbed "Januhairy," an ongoing celebration on social media encouraging women to grow out and show off their body hair. Now, women are dynamic, radiant, vibrant beings-so, naturally, Januhairy got really colorful. On Instagram, some women are dying their armpit hair in rainbow shades and calling them #UnicornPits. Girls just wanna have fun............

Ummm...okey dokey.

This confirms my opinion that as a society we have way too much time on our hands if we decide we are going to decorate our armpit hair.

My grandpa, who went thru the Great Depression in the South, saw the hippies carrying on in the late 60's and told my dad he thought we may need another on just to straighten people out.

That story always comes to mind when I see this crap.

Now, let me get this straight. Guys are supposed to be hairless pajama boys and girls are supposed to braid their armpits or something....

Sure am glad I'm not the 'trendy' type. If you aren't nuts already, that crap will put you there.

What bugs me about this story is that kid in the picture looks to be about 12...a bit before pit hairs.

Let's just say she's 21; I've never seen a woman with that much pit hair.  I mean, even if I were to let mine grow for three years there's no way I would have that much.

No. It only means yor too damned domesticated. Properly dragging them back to yor cave removes most of that hair. It removes even more if you drag them by their feet. But then they tend to fill up with sand.

Eh, maybe she's French, that would would put her on the low average for pit hair. And I would hate to think what's lurkin neath a muzzies burqa! (http://i44.tinypic.com/165b9v.jpg)

American women shaving their pits only goes back to the 1920s which is also when facial hair was becoming far less fashionable for men. Brief and limited returns to it have happened like with the hippy culture, but I don't think it will fully take off again, at least here in America. Having dated European girls while in the service hairy pits  doesnt bother or shock me one way or the other, but let's not go all my little pony over it and give it color. Though if green it will give those Chia Pet people another product to sell.

It certainly helps when one is trying to make a distinction. I hate it when I am looking at some(one) and thinking, "What is that?"

Armpit hair on a woman is fine - to a point. Rainbows belong in the sky. But just shave your damned legs, woman. Real men don't like cuddling with a Yeti.

Something related, maybe.

Have you thought of accidentally misplacing a jar of green body paint in your bedroom?

Have you looked at any of the home units?  Wondering how well they work, the reviews are all over the board, but I wonder if it's because people are too damn dumb to follow the instructions.
