There's no single answer to whether girls prefer hairy or hairless men. Preference is highly subjective and varies greatly among individuals.
Body Hair Preferences: A Spectrum of Opinions
Multiple sources indicate that a moderate amount of body hair is often preferred by women, while extremes—either excessive hairiness or complete hairlessness—are less universally appealing. A study by psychologists at the University of Turku in Finland even suggests that women tend to prefer men's body hair levels similar to their current partners and fathers. [^1] This highlights the influence of familiarity and personal experience in shaping preferences.
Many sources emphasize that overall attractiveness plays a larger role than the presence or absence of body hair. [^2] If a woman finds a man attractive generally, the presence of body hair may not be a significant factor.
For pubic hair, various polls suggest a strong preference for some grooming. A significant majority (80-90%) prefer a level of grooming, with only a small percentage (10-20%) preferring completely unshaven or completely shaved pubic hair. [^3] One respondent even stated a preference for trimmed pubic hair. [^4]
Regarding chest hair specifically, polls demonstrate that many women are attracted to moderate amounts. However, both extremes (very hairy or completely hairless chests) can also be attractive to certain women. [^5]
The key takeaway is that personal preference dominates. Some women are attracted to very hairy men, some prefer hairless men, and the majority find a moderate level of body hair most appealing.
Factors Influencing Preference
Several factors contribute to individual preferences regarding body hair:
- Personal Experience: Past relationships and family influence preferences.
- Cultural Background: Societal norms and trends influence perceptions of attractiveness.
- Individual Taste: Ultimately, individual preferences are unique and diverse.
