Haha I do! When I am wearing panties our a swimsuit bottom, or some tight athletic shorts, or tights/pantyhose. Can't help it. Love the feel!

In fairness I do like quite like to feel mine occaisonally, when wearing the same items you mentioned. There is something about the close fit of a swimsuit isn't there? My boobs get a bit of attention too when they have some support.

Trust me Sandi, get a razor and shave those legs silky smooth and then put some moisturizer on them. The feminine feeling that you will get will be awesome.
If you feel really bold and brave, paint those toenails and look in the mirror. The combination of silky smooth soft legs and those painted toenails will definitely make you feel better. You won’t go back.
I wish I had the chance to do it again.
Huggs,
Kelli

My current electric shaver has seen better days and currently scratches my face and wherever else I'm shaving. I've just gone on Amazon to get a replacement, and am bewildered and overwhelmed by the number of options.
Can you any of you save me some precious brain power and recommend one? To clarify I am talking about a shaver designed for men.

I actually have very fine facial hair and only need to shave 1-2 times per week so I use a handheld non-electric standard razor.

If I'm using an electric (I tend to use an actual razor in the shower, and then touch up on non-showering days with an electric) then I actually use a little battery-powered portable shaver that I got from Tesco for £15, which does the job. It's not the closest result, and by evening I can feel it coming back again, but it buys me a few hours lol.
I also, quite a while back, spent £40 on a Phillips electric "lady shaver" (I think it's called a Satin Shave, or something similar), which does absolutely nothing. You can use it wet as well as dry, which I keep meaning to try, but never remember until I'm already under the shower and soaking wet.

Kelli Ann - I have a bone to pick with you After I don't know how long of just shaving in the shower and being done, and thinking "how much difference can a bit of lotion actually make?" I thought of your advice today and actually tried rubbing some moisturiser in after I got out the shower. They really, really do feel so much better! So not that I needed more things to add onto my grocery shops, and not that showers don't already take a long time nowadays anyway, but looks like this might have to become a regular thing 😅

So an update on this: after a couple of instances where I cut myself to shreds using the razor in the shower (think Psycho but with more blood) I've revisited the epilator. And actually, I think I may have cracked it (somewhat).
Before I would use it, aim to get completely smooth and end up giving up before that happened because I couldn't take it anymore and giving it up as a lost cause. This time however, I went with a more gradual approach. I would do as much as I could manage and then stop. And then remove (as much as it would) with the electric shaver. Then a couple of days later, repeat. And over the course of a couple of weeks, I am now at a stage where my legs are pretty much smooth and I don't wake up to stubble every morning.
Now the downside... I've hopefully cracked it on legs, but nowhere else 😕 And don't get me wrong, I love waking up and not having the stubble there, but beyond being irritating that never bothered me too much as I know it's something that applies to all women. The thing that REALLY causes me dysphoria is waking up with torso stubble 😭 And I still find it MUCH too painful to use on those areas.
So where if had to choose I'd have rather have it work up there but not on legs, it's actually the other way around. So... a partial win lol

That's great Maria.
Keep working your way towards that torso. Maybe you'll eventually work up the nerve! Do you have the lack of balls to do it? HAHA!

Maria, I'm really pleased for you with all that progress you're making on this. Sounds like you're getting some really great results.
I on the other hand have only been shaving my face recently. I haven't done my legs since that one time I told you about. I just feel that is just too much of a performance, too much effort, for something that only I'll see, and even it won't be that often. It doesn't feel like the wondrous treat that it seems to be for others. That one time I did do it, I didn't feel tingly all over and just got a stiff back instead.
I haven't done my chest or stomach for a month or so either. That is starting to bother me a bit, especially my stomach. I've changed razors recently and though the new one works wonders for my face, it doesn't do very well for the rest of me, that's why I stopped shaving those other two areas. Will have to charge up my old one and use that instead.

I experimented with Nair on my bikini line this week when the fam was out of town. I gotta say it worked pretty well. I only had to do a little bit of touch up with the razor.

I used some of that a month or so ago, hoping it would be the magic solution for chest. It did literally nothing other than stink out my bathroom 😔

This definitely falls under the title of the thread, but perhaps not in the typical way.
I was shaving myself yesterday but had forgotten to tie my hair back, so it was hanging all loose and quite voluminous. When looking myself in the mirror I didn't see a woman that looked liked a man shaving her face, it was very much a woman doing it. Also it felt like a normal thing for me to do, there wasn't that jarring sense of I'm a woman having to do this manly activity of face shaving, I was a woman shaving her face and that was OK, no different to removing hair from any other part of me.

Probably not the post you were expecting from me right now, but here's some tips on shaving your legs from someone I follow on Twitter. Belle's leg shaving tips
