Basilisa Marie Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 What's the cause? Cancer treatment and awareness, usually people spin it for Men's cancers especially (like prostate cancer), to balance out October being breast cancer awareness month. The official No Shave November site says that they're donating all the money they raise this year to the American Cancer Society. http://www.no-shave.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veritasluxmea Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 idk, I work in a professional environment so as a woman I don't think it would be appropriate to not shave. (I guess men can get away with clean beards.) Even if you can hide it, I still feel it's kind of sketchy. If you have only a few unshaved inches showing above your ankle, I would feel that's inappropriate for a work environment, so you'd have to spend the whole month really covered up and I don't have the wardrobe for that. As for armpits, even with deodorant doesn't cut it after a few hours so I wouldn't want to risk it, ew. Plus, wouldn't you feel physically uncomfortable if you didn't shave, at least for a week or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, wouldn't you feel physically uncomfortable if you didn't shave, at least for a week or something? When did you start shaving? I began at the age of fifteen because a school nurse made me feel uncomfortable about myself by laughing at my legs and making a disgusted comment. About two years ago I decided that I wanted to stop, as I didn't begin for my own benefit, I only began because someone who should have known better made me feel bad. This discomfort is just a result of pressure, I think. Adult women do have hair. I don't see why it looks unprofessional to be an adult woman in public. Some companies think it's unprofessional for women to be bare-faced and not to pluck their eyebrows and not to wear high heels and whatever else - where does this stop? I think that so long as I'm clean and wearing work-appropriate attire, my body is my own business. Deodorant seems to work just fine whether I'm shaved or not.
