According to the editor of Men’s Health magazine, about33 percent men admitted to using a trimmer to cut it down while about 15 percent said they shaved their legs frequently and did not find it weird¹.

Meanwhile, over half (51.6 per cent) insisted they would 'never' touch their leg hair.

那么对于男生的腿毛，女生是怎么看的呢？

Another survey found that, 30 percent of women were partly agree to 'a man who trims leg hair down' whilemore than 20 percent 'love' a man with clean-shaven legs.

从调查结果看来，女同学们对于这件事的接受度还是不低的。
