Yet another shaving poll - please vote

There's a huge difference between her thinking it's silly (more of a "boys will be boys" thing), and being disgusted by the idea. The fact that she laughs means that it doesn't repulse her.

So give it a go. But take your time.

Yeah, it wasn't until your last line in your post that I realized you were talking about your legs and until then wasn't sure what body parts you were refering to; "speed, ease of masage, pleasantly surprised..." all could have referred to something else 

Do what you want and deal with the fallout (if there's to be any) later, like any other guy.

Man, all of you have your heads in the gutter.... 

legs, Legs, LEGS!!!!!

(No way I'm taking a razor to the boys - clippers, yes.  Blades?  NO freak'n way)

Clippers to the boys. Are you a Yeti? Maybe you should shave. 

Maybe as big as one!    Remember that grainy picture of big foot walking?  That lookes like me (without the hair)  haha!

No, the clippers keep the "junk" from getting nicks and cuts. 

I'd go ahead and tell your wife before you shave.

I think her reaction to the shaved legs are going to depend on how hairy they are in the first place.  I think if my fiance decided to shave his legs, it wouldn't really make much of a difference because has light hair.  Now if you have darker, hairier legs then it could be a pretty big shock to her when she sees the nekked legs

Surprise her. If she hates it, it will grow back in no time at all.

Always a fan of men shaving. Less hair = good.

That's my strategy....

While my husband never needs to ask permission to do something personal to himself like that, I would be offended if he did something I could have offered advice on.  I hate it when people know I'm experienced at something and don't ask for advice (and then make rookie mistakes). 

And yes, pictures would be great.  I'm a leg-woman.
