    As the title says, I'm quite anxious about my genetics in terms of body and facial hair growth. My father has very little bodily hair of any kind, including (I think) a complete lack of chest hair and never having had a full beard (due to a bald patch on his lower cheek/jaw which makes it look odd, according to him), and I have very few other male relatives that I'm still in contact with, but I don't think any of them are particularly hairy. Having said that, my dad's much older than most people's (he's only recently turned 70, and I'm 16), so it could be due to ageing and hair loss (I have no idea what he was like in the past). I'm also aware that I'm fairly late in terms of puberty and development (I'm only just beginning to get any darkened beard hairs at all), but I'm quite worried that I'm never going to develop much hair. Do any of you think that this is likely, or is it really impossible to say?

    There's really no way of knowing for sure. I will say, many gay/bi guys LOVE guys with little to no body hair.

    Oh well, thanks anyway. And also, I appreciate there's a lot of love for the smoothness out there, but not for me. I personally find hairy men extremely attractive, but also get the most pleasure out of two hairy guys - by that, I mean my ideal situation is me (being hairy) with another hairy guy. Ultimately, I'll take what I'm given and work with it.

    Good. You might as well make the most of what you've got. I'm a twink, and I prefer other twinks by far, but I understand that not everybody feels that same way
