No taste.
Plus they think they can hide behind the hair when they surrender with the hands up.

Among younger generations, they aren't. This belief is an out-dated stereotype.

I live in Europe, get over it.

IT IS NOT TRUE

Here people wonder why are AMERICANS ASSH****

Why the hell do people say that.
All you people think that french dont shave their armpits.
What the hell? You just believe what other people say.

Who the hell knows why people say it.
Maybe like, 60 years ago they used to not shave their armpits.
You losers. They shave now

I've lived in France.
And I never saw one girl who hadnt shaved her armpits.

The first time I saw a girl with hair under her armpits was in USA.
In LA.

Go to France and check for yourself.

Ha! A nice stereotype! My girlfriend (which is shaved everywhere, as all my girlfriends were and as all girls I know are!) and lots of other Europeans think ALL Americans are stubborn, biased and ignorant. Do you think that's true?! You see, that's the same crap as the hairy armpit story. Or isn't it? Well, all these comments are somewhat disgusting!
Think before you judge things you obviously don't really know!

The same reason that it's acceptable for women in any country to have hairy armpits, it's freedom of choice. Not all women are so obsessed with their looks that they can't leave the house without being visual perfections. Broaden your horizons, men have hairy armpits and they are not chastised for leaving them unshaven. Obsessing over the perfect, smooth body is a modern phenomena, do you really think women 200 years ago were worried about their pits being smooth/hairy? No.

Maybe you should come to France to see if our women have hairy armpits before asking such a question. You should not listen to rumors specially when they are not true

its not about the hair, its about loving your body the natural way, no implants, no botox, no shaved snatches or legs.

pu**ies? this coming from a punk like you it don't mean ****.

That is urban myth. I lived there for 6 years and it was no more acceptable than around here.

No everyone in Europe does it! Generalization! Generalization! Generalization!

I spend my summers at St Tropez and Provence in general and it is a long time since I've seen a hairy pit. In fact I would go further and say 60% don't have pubies.
It is an old wartime thing to say French girls are hairy, those that say they are have either spent their time in the farmers market or have never been there.
Besides as some others have said there is freedom of choice,they don't have Tony Blair there to take it from them.
My friend who is British has asked his wife not to shave as he likes it that way.

Oho someone brought the battle French against British up again.
I think it is more of a prejudice against french women, and I have to say, most of the girls, even if they are as hairy as a bear do still look better (and more hygienic) than heeps of british girls.
But none of my business, I am neither French nor British.

Why are hairy armpits on women seemingly unnaceptable in your part of the world?

i haven't noticed the trend in the young people. i think it's old school. i lived there for 6yrs and never had that issue with any of the chicks i dated. it's just an old stereotype. like people thinking all americans are abusive gun shooting 8lb hamburger eaters-the crap that comes out of texas and tRNISHES ALL OF OUR REPS

The Jade Merchant

I actually find it quite sexy.

Real women, not women pretending to be girls.

spadger

because they like to, simple as, bonne nuit

zeezizzi

Maybe you should ask why women with hair are NOT acceptable where you come from?

Sufi

it is simply cultural.
they would think bald armpits were disgusting or unusual.
