SarcasticGreetings answered Wednesday April 7 2010, 8:03 pm: Just tell her straight up:
- leg hair is embarrassing for someone in junior high / high school / whatever school you're in. Kids are immature. They tease.
- Summertime = shorts time.
- tell her it makes you super uncomfortable.
But you know, whether or not your mom will agree just depends on her personality. My mom, for instance, was pretty damn controlling (still is), and COMPLETELY REFUSED. But then one day, a couple weeks later, I just shaved my legs anyway. And she didn't do anything about it. (After all, what the hell CAN she do? I'm not saying to go against your mom's wishes, but if you're really desperate to do so, well, it's not like shaving's that big a deal).

xomegaroni answered Sunday April 2 2006, 4:57 pm: explain to her that you need to. she'll definately understand. she is a girl. it definately isn't a big deal & she probably won't think anything of it. plus, it's getting a lot warmer out & you can explain that you want to wear shorts, but you need to shave your legs. she'll understand that.
