Guys I donât like body hair đ I donât like beards Or armpit hair Or butthole hair Or chest chair Or nose hair Iâm sorry. But I saved this list and liked it anyways bc I support the body hair girlies and Iâm an ally đ
Edit to say: I donât want a naked mole rat. I just donât APPRECIATE hair. Itâs there and itâs fine. But Iâm not thirsting after hair.
maomiOP

THANK YOU FOR THIS WONDERFUL BOUNTY OF BODY HAIR đ„čđ„čđ„čđđđđ«¶đ«¶đ«¶đđđđđ€đ€đ€đ€
I congratulate you on this brilliant idea đ will be a follower of this list đââïž wish you luck on your journey to change this cursed world!
I love this list, it is so important to discuss our bodies in a positive light! Thank you đ I read a review/post that mentioned Slap Shot by Chelsea Curto discussing body hair in a positive way. I have not read it my self but maybe someone else can confirm?
The holidays are over and yet this gift appears before us đđł
Another mythical bush sighting!
As previously mentioned, Ship Wrecked by Olivia Dade has FMC with all the body hair. Exhibit A submitted as evidence: That blond hair between her dimpled thighs, under her arms, on her legs.
And it should be noted that MMC is hairy, too.
maomiOP
i'm so glad my library has it on libby oh my gourd i'm quaking in my metaphorical boots
not sure if it fits for the list but gotta share this interaction!!! spoilers below for Scythe & Sparrow:
her leg was in a brace so she couldnât shave and sheâs comparing her shaven and non shaven leg hair to him :)
âThe fur is really adding to the experience for me.â I nearly say something stupid, like I like carpet, or Fur is hot âJust wait until you get the cast.â âItâll hurt?â âNo. But once we take it off, you might be able to braid it.â
AND HES FUNNY
maomiOP
i'm cracking uppppp if there's smut and there's hair i say it fits!!
AND THE INTERACTION KEPT GOING (added to the above đ€)
maomiOP
i'm deadddddd
AGAIN OMG
âSince when have I been attracted to a guyâs legs? Since now, I guess. His are all tanned and muscly with just the right amount of hair thatâs bleached from all his time running in the sun. I want to touch them. But of course, I donât.â
maomiOP
omg girl touch them just reach over and give it a little stroke
Listening to What Happens in Amsterdam by Rachel Lynn Solomon. And when he says "I love you just as you are. " after she says she hasn't waxed (she did it for her ex but hated it. Most of us have been there or near there) in awhile. I wanted to jump the man myself! [He then proceed to go down on her] Mythical bush! Oh and she loves his happy trail.
maomiOP
MYTHICAL BUSH!!!!! but also this is making me emotional wth đđđ i need a man like this is my life
His and hers bush mentioned a couple times each, and Iâm not even halfway through the book. Itâs a historical erotic romance (my first!), Passion by Lisa Valdez. And itâs delicious!
maomiOP
HIS AND HERS LETS FUCKIGN GOOOOOO
back again đ«Š Bluebird Gold by Devney Perry!! ââŠrevealing a mound of neatly trimmed, glistening black curls.â
maomiOP
HELL YEAH LETS FUCKIGN GOOOOO
I love this!! Iâve definitely got books where itâs mentioned but canât think what off the top of my head, but will be returning to these comments from now on whenever I read one
maomiOP
yes please đ«Ą this is a quest that i cannot complete alone
i am feral. give me !!! i am also greedy.
Chasing Cassandra by Lisa Kleypas, multiple mentions of her bush!
#6 in the series? My completionist heart is crushed. Off to read the first 5 to start with hopes of more MYTHICAL BUSH SIGHTINGS.
I canât remember if the other ones mention it as well, I would asssume they do since theyâre historical romance but I bounced around in the series for character types I like lol
Oh hell yeah
I have really severe eczema and stopped shaving for comfort and health yeeeears ago. I love my hairy fairy legs and pits and I love seeing appreciation for it! Via La Fuzz!
maomiOP
YEAHHH VIVA LA FUZZ!!!!!
i wish more people knew about how shaving can cause harm to the skin, but alas, i am but one cat at a keyboard đ
Well this is the most amazing thing Iâve ever seen đđđ
As a woman with no shortage of body hair, I support this cause đ«Ą (Also, these comments⊠yâall are hilarious đ€Ł)
Daydream by Hannah Grace has mention of (female) body hair, though only once or twice.
maomiOP
body hair is love body hair is life đ€đ€đ€
Word!
(Iâm GreekâŠweâre like Sasquatch.)
Just found out about Unshaved: Resistance and Revolution in Women's Body Hair Politics.
Definitely not the same vibe as other books on this list, of course, but I suspect the other people here have thoughts about the issue too đ€Ł
Unfortunately I can't find a copy for less than US$30 đ„
maomiOP
added it to the list for shits and giggles still hehe
maomiOP
yeessssss!!! it's on my tbr but i haven't gotten around to it yet. $30 though woof đ
đŁïž LOVE POTIONS AND PAPERWORK !!! đŠđł
ââŠclinging to the soft hair trimmed immaculately into the shape of a butterfly on her pubic mound.â
maomiOP

Under the Oak Tree by Suji Kim! Red bush! For print its not done but i recommend reading the translated digital version! idk if kindle still sells them
maomiOP

Not sure if you're interested in short form erotica, but pretty much every single story by Vanessa D. Sade features (mostly) female characters with bush, and a few stories call out axillary and/or leg hair
maomiOP
any and all stories are welcome heređ«Ąđ«Ą we need all the hair we can get
Omg thank youuuu đ§ââïžđââïž I needed this list in my life!
Bush in my current pnr read: Caressed by Ice by Nalini Singh Chest hair in my current mm hockey read: Gravity by Tal Bauer
maomiOP

I love this theme and of course itâs like Iâve never read a book, my mind is blank! For sure Lisa Kleypas mentions it in more than just Chasing Cassandra. Saving to come back with specifics!
maomiOP
yayayayay i just started reading Someone to Watch Over Me because it was available at my library so iâll be keeping an eye out đđđ
yaasss! you did it my friend!! LFGGG!!
maomiOP

Of course all of the Bridgerton Books by Julia Quinn all have the bush!!
- The Witch Collector by Charissa Weaks may have it (it was mentioned briefly but i know it was there)
- Bonds of Hercules by Jasmine Mas (i just finished and it was mentioned briefly as well!!)
Bridgerton being here makes my heart happy

maomiOP

Aaahw yessshh!!
Both Tough Guy and Role Model from the Game Changers series (by Rachel Reid) have chest hair mentions! I'm pretty sure it's also mentioned someway in the other books, but I remember these two in particular.
maomiOP

Iâm reading one now that fits. The Underachiever by Flora Foxglove. We get full on end of world hair and bush for everyone!
Well, I'm not sure I endorse this book per se, but The Claiming of Sleepy Beauty by Anne Rice has lots of glistening pubic hair, bush included.
maomiOP
iâve actually read part of it before a few years ago! itâs an interesting one for sure from what i can remember, and glistening bush is glistening bush đââïžđââïž
maomiOP
ooh iâve actually read part of it before a few years ago! itâs an interesting one for sure from what i can remember, and glistening bush is glistening bush đââïžđââïž

Heat Clinic by Alexis Osbourne can be added to the approved list. Bush is mentioned frequently.
maomiOP

The Essential Horror of Joe R. Lansdale: âOn the Far Side of the Cadillac Desert with Dead Folksâ copyright © 1989 by Bizarre Hands LLC. First appeared in Book of the Dead, edited by John M. Skipp and Craig Spector (Shingletown, CA: Ziesing).
Has a very positive reference to bush.
Jack Rabbit by Em Jae Black - very hairy man. Bear quality. He does reference light trimming, but his partner is always taking notice of the hairy body.
maomiOP
light trimming is acceptable đââïž it's like keeping the grass in check by mowing the lawn but the grass is still there đââïžđââïž
Goldie And The Bear Affair features a brief blond bush sighting and at least one very hairy chest! there maybe have been more than one but the men kinda just all blended together.
Iâve been slacking on the bush reports. I am sorry. Forgive me. Here is my offering:
- She Came for Blood by Darva Green
- Gratuitous Games by Darby Quinn (there was a whole body hair convo!!)
- Disastrous Desires by Darby Quinn
- Centauri Doll by Wendy Rathborne (some real lust for it)
- Bad Bishop by LJ Shen
I will have more to report soon đ«Ą
maomiOP
a whole convo!!!
