This week’s sign of the apocalypse. What happens when you don’t let boys play dodgeball at school? This: almost half of men are trimming or shaving their leg hair.

Almost half of men are trimming or shaving their leg hair

I've had my legs shaved by nurses a number of times. I keep breaking bones badly enough to require surgery. Never shaved them myself, though. My bicycle racing has all been off-road, and us mountain bikers just go ahead and get dirty.
Trump will make leg hair great again.
He waxes hot and cold on that issue.
And as a result he's cutting the election pretty close.
I trim my leg hair for cycling. Makes putting on sunblock easier and also aids in rubdowns. It helps keep bugs, bees and road debris from sticking too. I actually had a bee get stuck in long leg hair once and and the little bastage hit me three times before I could slow the bike to address the situation!
Notice I said trim and not shave. I never saw the benefit of actually shaving them, tho most cyclists do so. I use the #4 trimmer, so I actually still have hair and it does not appear as though I do any trimming. Left untrimmed, my legs are much hairier than the right leg in the above pic. Pile on y'all… ;)
If that guy was any hairier you couldn't see his knee caps.
"Road debris?"
Drinking beer and tossing the empties on the side of the road is still a pastime in Tejas. There's lots of glass on the shoulders and bike lanes in SA. Front tire throws up a lot of crap, especially when the road is wet. Minor inconvenience until it's a bit of broken glass that sticks, then cuts you when you reach down to brush off said road debris.
Say, are you that guy who used to make Geico commercials?

Don't be a "hair hater' now JP.
My daughter's comment: "Ewwwww"
Oh terrific! Underarms too, I'll bet.
