i waxed raffi once, and let me tell you, it wasn't nearly as painful as some of the other parts of my body i've ripped hair out of. that being said, NEVER AGAIN!
That was actually supposed to be "wrathy", which I just like the sound of more than "wrathful" but hey, whatever works.
When I first started getting body hair in as a young lassie, I shaved everything that had non-head hair once, just as an experiment. This experiment did not involve any shaving cream, which rather appalled my mother but didn't bother me at the time (I don't recall getting particularly cut up, either). My mother said to use some kind of lubricant, though, so next time I wanted to shave my legs, I used lotion. That one sliced up my legs but good. She bought me an electric razor shortly thereafter, but I just haven't even been able to convince myself that body hair needs to be removed regularly.
However, eventually my mother and I came to an agreement wherein I wouldn't shave anything and she wouldn't let me out of the house in shorts, short skirts, or tank tops. This is pretty much where things stand today.
