Shirtless men with no chest hair, what's up with that?

My current girlfriend hates the men portrayed in ads nowadays. She says they look like women, and I agree.
She then gets turned on by playing with my chest hair and beard. o.o

At least men are now expected to be nearly as hairless as women have been for the past 20 years. Less of a double standard now.
Ideally people would feel free to be as hairy or hairless as they choose, of course, but that's never going to happen.

Ah Sean Conory in his Bond days, it doesn't get much manlier than that.HentMas said:its aesthetically pleasing to the eye, most shirtles actors shave or whatever because they want to show muscle, in most cases at least, also its a recent trend in movies,
(holly S%&T DO NOT google "hairy guys in movies" without safe search ON, PASS THE BRAIN BLEACH)
the "chest hair" is more common on older movies here is an example
More to the point, it used to be that hairiness was seen as a sign of virility. The thought being that lots of hair meant lots of testosterone, and manliness, and high sperm count.(I think) Then the gays gave unto us the wisdom that is "manscaping" and the idea that you didn't have to look like Grisly Adams to be masculine. Then Bravo created Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, and well...lets just say you can have to much of a good thing sometimes. Too support that last statement I point you to "The Situation".

I'm a 20 year old Russian guy. I have really hairy legs, fairly hairy arms, and very little hair on my chest. I'm not quite sure why it worked out that way.
That exists? Might have to look into this. I have a forest growing under my shirts and I hate it. Every damn time I take a shower, no matter how hard I try and hope and pray, I just cannot get my torso dry. Why is it so fucking hard to dry hairy areas?! Then I put my shirt on, it gets moist, and I spend the rest of the day with a cold shirt in freezing temperatures.lacktheknack said:
I've tried shaving in the past, but it takes so long. Had to trim first, because the hair was too long and tough to shave right away. Sure, the result was joyous and wonderful, but I'm too lazy to spend half an hour shaving my chest every week. Damn you, northern European genes!
So I have a little chest hair and a trail. There's only two areas of my body that I'll ever shave and neither of them are my chest. It's not pride, its more just I don't care and I got a few gnarly scars on my chest around my body. Those tend to balance out the chest hair.
Besides, its not chest hair you need to worry about. If you need to be worried about any kind of hair issues, then be worried about back hair (one genetic bullet I thankfully dodged).
Let's be honest, you could have the best body a woman could desire (or man, this is the 21st century afterall). That body won't be worth its weight if you do not have any confidence to back it up.
I've seen it, guys you think women would not give a second look, yet with their confidence, they're the ones who wake up with a warm body next to them more often than not.
In short, chest hair issue can be negated by scars; back hair is a bigger issue; confidence is the biggest if you have none.

I don't shave, I just don't grow it much there. I mean there's a little bit, but even if I was a hairy ************ I wouldn't shave. Mainly due to the fact that I don't have a vagina. I don't even do a very good job of shaving my face. Shaving just sucks in general.
My family just isn't very hairy. My dad has practically none, and I have very little. I also have a single patch of back hair on one shoulder blade. The area is prone to itchiness and breakouts even if I shave it. I dunno.
I guess these guys are just comfortable in their hairlessness? If you like your hair, don't let it get to you.

Chest hair is not vert fashionable at the moment.
Also, a lot of guys have very thin chest hair (myself among them) and it tends to look a lot better to just shave it all off rather than leave it looking patchy.

You know, it isn't the shade of his skin that grosses me out. It is the bushy black eyebrows that make me want to get the tweezers and trimmer out. I admit to watching the first movie but I stared at his eyebrows the whole time wondering wtf? They disturb me. >.<Drakmeire said:no Edward is shirtless in the second movie.Sassafrass said:It's actually Jacob who appears topless in the Twilight films, not Edward. You've just been bamboozled. ...Or something.
Probably because it's not attractive. Plus most men that appear topless in films are either for the women to ogle or get greased up and have shiny torsos. ...Plus chest hair can look ugly.
<spoiler=Yes, I just had to google that. I hate you>http://www.profoundstupidity.net/uploaded_images/edward-shirtless-no-dots-734602.jpg
P.S Do girls find this guy attractive? I mean I always liked pale skin but dear god, that just looks dead.
Attention fans of twilight... WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOUR STANDARDS!?!?
OT
Chest hair used to be very popular in the 70s to early 80s, maybe later. Just think Magnum PI (Tom Selleck). If you are brave you could search for porn from that era, I will admit that this is where I have seen the difference so plainly when I have happened across it. Eww. Everything was.. bushier. So for now everything trimmed or shaved is more acceptable. Eventually it will change again.
Well, not sure if you have realized it yet, but the 80's are gone, replaced by the 90's then the 20's then the... 10's? Chest hair was popular in the 80's but as every other fashion from the 80's it died with the 80's and lies buried in the 80's.
As some have mentioned before NOT EVERONE GETS CHEST HAIR!

I can show you a guy who's ripped, got no chest hair and doesn't take pride in his appearance.Goofguy said:

it all boils down to a few factors, if your asking "why no hair" its either, shaving or doesn't grow for them.
if your asking "why shirtless" probably because their either, comfortable that way, trying to show off for the loose women/men if they swing that way, because the sun sucks and is trying to bake us inside our own clothing.
I frankly am Italian, there is no remedy for our hairs potential, and I just to happen to be proud of my unstoppable human fur that is honestly almost as strong as metal, Fing takes an hour to merely trim my head with top of the line buzzers.
Also, for those that say a shaved chest is sexier, that opinion is best left to the wife/husband to be, Same rule applies to potential epicness of beards, while I've not heard of a couple separating purely because of facial hair, anyone that won't accept your beard if you've chosen to be so bearded, can return to the shallow end of the pool.
(People, you don't have to be creepy furry to like a hairy bulky mountain man, thankfully, because i'd have been alone forever lol!)
I, I am a Yeti, and that ain't changing.

For the guys who don't even grow chest hair: It's probably because you are white, many white guys don't get chest hair. But of course there are white guys with a lot of chest hair, I guess it depends on your heritage.
As for me, I am Indian/Pakistani and Mexican so I am destined to have really thick, black chest hair. However, I am almost 19 and while I have hair covering most of my torso it's very light. My dad has a very hairy chest and said I was supposed to have one by now but instead of having a thick black forest of chest hair, I merely have thick black peach fuzz for chest hair (it's pretty weird actually but not unsightly so I leave it be).
