Dating advice (yep, a body hair question) - 11-06-2009, 05:08 AM

So a year or two after college I'm thinking about moving to japan to be an ESL teacher. Sounded like a pretty cool way to get some world experience, if anyone's interested here's a link (or just google it there's a bunch of sites).

Teaching English in Japan

Anyway, If I'm not in a relationship before I move there, I'd like to try dating in japan. However, my handful of Japanese lady friends on the net seem to be completely opposed to dating a guy who's got any more body hair than the average 8 year-old boy. I have about as much body hair as the next 20 something guy (legs, arms a little on the chest and a thin happy trial, plus I'm part Spanish so the hair's dark), but is it really an issue that'll deter every Japanese girl?

One of my net friends is trying to convince me to get waxed from head to toe or lasered. That's definitely not my favorite idea in the world, but I'd consider it if a little chest fuzz makes me an undatable leper over there.

Anybody with experience or opinions in this area?
