Would you date a man who has a very hairy back?

No, because I'm married and monogamous. Otherwise, I'd consider it, depending on many other factors.

Ok. So I meet this delicious boi and he is perfect in every way and we're basically about to do it and he takes off his shirt and his back is all like...bear skin rug?
I could totally overlook it if he was hawt in every other way. Although, I might suggest a little shaving party

No, but not because of the hairy back thing. I don't date men...as such. Not in the romantic/sexual way. I assume that's what you mean. I probably wouldn't know that someone I was dating had a hairy back until I saw them naked. Usually, by that point we have gone beyond the "dating" stage of the relationship. I've dated some hirsute women, but none of them had hairy backs; hairy nipples, hairy asses, hairy legs, hairy armpits...no hairy backs.

At the moment I wouldn't have thought so because...ewwww. But if you love the person you don't care about stuff like that do you?

No. I don't think my husband would like it much if I did.

No, but I did go out with this beautiful gal once who hadn't shaved her legs for a week or two and got stubble burns on my sides

Ladies and Gentleman. Let me introduce you to my dream fantasy figure!

I have a hairy back and it does put a lot of people off. Sometimes I get self-conscious and won't take my top off in public places. Then sometimes I think sod 'em. This weekend I'm off out to a club for bears and will be taking my top off and dancing all night long!
For everyone you meet who get repulsed by your body - you invariably meet someone who totally gets off on you. You can't have perfection in everyones eyes!

That is so very true.

It wouldn't really be a factor.

Pretty much every men's back is hairy. Some is obvious, the other ones you don't really see. But if you mean like werewolf hairy, then maybe.

In my experience, I've never met a man with a very hairy back that I'm attracted to. However...if i really liked him, and the rest of him was decent it wouldn't bother me too much, as long as he waxed it that is.

I don't date (I'm celibate), but when I dated it was women, not men.

I don't date men.

No since I am married...It's isn't something that I really thought about but it wouldn't bother me if my husband had a very hairy back.

I don't date men.

If I was single, sure, why not? He can shave it. Or I guess I could in that case. I already shave the back of my husband's neck.

Is that you?

if I were dating someone, back hairiness wouldn't be a factor

Maybe. I would date someone I liked, regardless or what he looked like. My dad had a very hairy back, but he was a great guy, in so many ways.

Oh my fudging God!

*falls out of her chair*

I have. Back hair is not a criteria for dating.

i wouldn't date a man!!!! now a woman with a hairy back, i would have to think about that!

In fact, the man I love has a very hairy back (and chest, arms, legs, tummy) and I don't mind giving him a backscratch when he needs it.

I don't understand being turned off by a man's hairiness or baldness... My beloved is both hairy and balding, and I just consider it more evidence of his innate masculinity and maturity.

So hairy (and balding) men of the world, I salute you!

No, that's not me!

Question: Did you know that the term for the man you've described is a bear? Just wondering!

I don't date anymore, but there were a few guys I dated who had hairy backs. LOL

It would be a turn-off. I'm not saying the person isn't a terrific human being...its unappealing.

Well, I wouldn't "date" (and at that stage how would I know he had a hairy back?) but it wouldn't bother me if I was going out with a guy with a hairy back.

Had to ask.

I don't date.

As long as that was his only fault.

I suppose if someone was a very wonderful person, one could get used to anything. I have my faults too - not particularly slender, bad skin, ton of allergies, prone to being a control freak. But someone saw through all that and decided to marry me anyway (lucky me)!

I actually do.

That is quite a back. Maybe a bit too much for my taste!

yes

Sure, why not? A hairy back does not make or break the man.

That I'd love to see....really
*cheeky grin*

well, considering that i am a straight man, no. i am not exactly sure if back hair is much of a factor in women's minds though. i dont have any back hair, and if i did, i'd probably shave it.

anyway we are just talking about dating, not sex. i dont see how that be a factor.

I already am! He never dries his back enough after getting out of the shower so he always has a damp spot on the back of his shirt and wonders why his back is cold... men.

I wouldn't date any man, but as a man with a hairy back I think the nymphomaniacs are missing out on an indicator of a high testosterone level

Yes, I knew they are called bears, and that's fine so long as it can be used for more than just gay niche markets. I love my furry bear!

Here's one nymphomaniac that isn't missing out! Hooray for testosterone!!!

I think hirsute men can be very attractive!
