I've kept my genital area smooth for many years. I really don't like body hair. My wife came to accepting it years ago but wasn't into me shaving my entire body. A few months ago I decided I had to take it off my bucket list. So I went totally smooth. It was strange for us both for a couple days but we both come to enjoy it. So I'm more inclined now to go totally smooth
Every few years someone comes along and revives this thread! I still haven't shaved my body at all. But since 2013 I've grown a beard. It certainly avoids a daily chore.
Hairless from the neck down. My head hair is long. I never really cared for body hair on me and have been hairless since around 1980. I epilate my legs, arms, chest, stomach, underarms, pubes, and the top of my dick. I shave my balls [too sensitive to be yankin' out the hair with an epilator], the bottom side of my dick, and my back as much as I can reach, which is almost all of it. My body hair is medium to fine so using an epilator works great. If you have coarse hair, shaving's the best. Epilators will hurt big time! My housemate and my partner don't mind at all. They're used to seeing me nude around the house the majority of the time...
