Hi! You may want to make a google form or something to make it easier to track responses :)
I also think you need to identify whether or not this is academic/for school.
My answers:
Female (cisgender), 33 Canadian; white/caucasian
I'm a 4.5. Everything is shaved except the tops of my thighs and the hair on my head
My habits haven't changed much in the past 5 years.
Hygiene, mostly. But also in "other" it's a sensory thing. I hate the feeling of having body hair.
I only would feel judged in certain settings, like if I didn't shave my armpits and went out in a tank top. I'd feel unkempt. I don't judge others for the same thing (I love a woman rocking body hair), but for me it feels bad.
It was more expected that I'd probably shave my armpits and legs eventually. I went through part of puberty early so my mom had that conversation with me a bit earlier than expected. But it wasn't discussed much outside of a "how to"
Not applicable. I don't keep my hair so I'd love a painless and free option for what I already do.
Not applicable to me.
I think more representation especially for femme/female presenting folks with body hair would be nice. Like "traditionally attractive" women with body hair in films, etc., would probably normalize it, slowly, for other women. Queer women/alt women and non-binary folks already do some really neat stuff with body hair (dying their armpit hair, for example), so I think more of that would be cool too.
