Day 9 of 100 - Unshaven armpits Becoming American Social

- Society & Culture
Episode 9 of Becoming American Social
Women are expected to keep ourselves clean-shaven in America.
Growing up in Germany, I saw the opposite of this -- most women at the swimming pool would have hair under their arms, and it was considered natural.
But of course, I conformed to American culture.
Day 9 challenge was to wear a tank top with unshaven armpits...and I went somewhere I knew I'd be forced to raise my hands up to expose said unshaven armpits.
Will I let it grow? Will I keep shaving? Find out the fate of my little pitsies at the end of this story.
