Hair removal is a personal choice for every woman, yet many choose to get rid of at least some of their body hair. According to one Veet and Stylist survey, 98% of women have removed their body hair at some point. Interestingly, 30% do it for their partners.
But this boyfriend gave his girlfriend a weird ultimatum. He demanded that she laser off all her body hair – yes, all, even her forearms. When she refused, he made it into an ultimatum: either she makes this “silly sacrifice” for him, or they break up. But his girlfriend made a decision he certainly wasn’t expecting.

Hi there, fellow pandas! As a person (over)educated both in social sciences and literature, I'm most interested in how we connect and behave online (and sometimes in real life too.) The human experience is weird, so I try my best to put its peculiarities in writing. As a person who grew up chronically online, I now try to marry two sides of myself: the one who knows too much about MySpace, and the one who can't settle and needs to see every corner of the world.

You've already been downvoted so I know what I'm in for, but I completely agree. The whole idea of wanting a woman to look prepubescent just skeeves me out!
Smooth hairless skin has long been accepted as a sign of beauty in women and is really nothing to do with wanting them to look like children. In recent times it's also quite common for men to shave, as I do myself. No excusing this guy insisting that his GF removes it though - if he finds it so unattractive then he needs to find a different woman that agrees with him.
Glad she realised what was really behind the sudden disgust for her body and laser removed him. This would have just got worse and worse until he broke her completely. May she and doggo bot live their best furry lives. Lots of people still disgusted by body hair - that's a you problem. But keep making noise so we know to avoid you.
I'm also disgusted by people who don't remove their hair completely, as hair is evidently filthy, and it indicates bad personal hygiene. Especially those long hairs on the top of the head./s
Edit: we all know it is not about body hair, but control. A relatively small ask goes into ultimatum territory, if the subject obeys, then more and bigger tasks will emerge.
