(Anonymous) 2015-04-19 02:08 am (UTC)(link)As a hair-dyer, no, it's not. If you start off blonde, it's no big deal. Start with black and to get any sort of color is going to take at least an hour of effort with bleach and several steps.
Shaving takes five minutes.

A day. There are 30, or 31, of those in a month. So you're talking an hour a month for hair dye, versus 2.5 hours a month for shaving.

(Anonymous) 2015-04-19 02:17 am (UTC)(link)Most people can shave their armpits about once a week on average without it getting very hairy and can fit it into their showers versus having to set a big chunk of time aside.

No "at least" about it. It takes me about 20 minutes to dye my hair, so we could go with that as the minimum. I'm sure there's people with difficult hair, or who are doing more elaborate things, who are going to take longer.

Where's this most from? Most of the answers I saw poking around on Google indicate most women shave their armpits either daily, or every time they shower. I'm being generous in going with the time period you allotted to it (5 minutes) when a lot of people are very hairy and will need longer.

(Anonymous) 2015-04-19 02:26 am (UTC)(link)Almost anyone can dye their hair jet black in five minutes, so why not go with that as standard, assuming every single partner wants jet black hair? Let's just ignore that to go blonde it'd take some people hours.
As for the other thing, see response to other anon below.

What type?
Exceptionally thick and coarse, usually wavy or straight.

Which is why I went with an average (hour) instead of going your route, and insisting on using one of the most extreme ends of the spectrum as a measurement. By all means, if you want that, we can use 5 minutes for hair dye as the standard.

(I mean I'm sure some people do but do most people? I sure as hell don't. I shave my pits probably once a week and it takes me about sixty seconds)

And please don't put words into my mouth.
I worded that comment badly; it sounded very flippant towards people who choose to spend more time shaving and I shouldn't have said it like that. That said, I in no way called anyone a freak or anything of a similar nature. I also thought I was pretty clear in that I think many people spend different amounts of time shaving. I was going for a facetious tone overall but also offering my experience as a counterpoint to the blanket assertion that it takes five minutes a day to shave.

(also, how many jobs actually require men to shave? I'm legit curious here, I can think of several that do and several that don't. my current job doesn't, as far as I know.)

"shaving takes 5 minutes"
1.) not for everyone
2.) some people can't shave their pits comfortably (i'm one of those people)
3.) even if i shave with the sharpest razor, there is still visible stubble. i've known many women with this issue
