Shaving your legs is not a requirement for being a modern lady, and many women have embraced a more au naturale philosophy when it comes to their body hair. (Meaning that if you don’t like it, you can GTFO.)
That said, many of us are still involved in a love-hate relationship with the practice of shaving. Sure, having smooth, silky legs is a fun and delightful sensation — but what about the actual act of shaving, dealing with razor burn, and itching at unsightly stubble?? It’s enough to make you seriously reconsider ditching your razor altogether.
Whether that pesky razor burn is getting you down, or you’ve simply “forgotten” to shave for the past six months, here are some delightful jokes about the frequently unpleasant realities of using a razor to remove your body hair. After all, regardless of how frequently you practice the art of shaving, I think we can all agree: it sucks.

I would rather stay single than start shaving my legs again.

Don't know what the worst part of having a male pedicurist is–the fact that my toe is bleeding or that I haven't shaved my legs in a week

I practice No Shave Winter, where I wear jeans every day and hibernate my furry legs to get ready for the coming of Spring.
