A Conversation for Grooming Tips

Dear All,
In the sort-of traditional Central European millieu where I grew up, removal of male body hair was a big no-no. It was considered pretentious and vain, pretty much like a combover... (This goes more or less for the whole of continental Europe.)
High standards of grooming were required in all other respects, but shaved or waxed shoulders, backs, or (godforbid) legs were seen as signs of outmost decadence and narcissism.
On the other hand, so was sleeping without pyjamas...
So, there's my 2 pence.
