Cyclists shave their legs so they don't get hurt as bad when they crash. When you hit the pavement at high speed the hair on your legs will rip your skin off as you slide across the ground. If your legs are smooth the injury isn't as bad. Swimmers sometimes shave their legs too to make their bodies more sleek and streamlined so they can get a faster time in a race. Those are two reasons I can think of why guys shave their legs.

Though I have not, Men shave there legs for enhanced performance in the water. I am told it makes a big difference. Usually Olympic swimmers or Military who have to use every advantage they can. >Most of who u would not want to call sissy or gay. for the above res ponces.

I'm a girl and personally I don't like a guy that shaves their legs, I don't like a hairy chest and back though.

Some guys who are atheletes (runners, swimmers) shave their legs to decrease drag. Others just like the look of shaven legs.

Because nobody wants to look at legs that look like they were stolen from a dead monkey.
But seriously, some athletes shave them all the time. Cyclist, bodybuilders, swimmer, etc. It's cool.

Cyclists shave their legs so that when they fall, it's easier to clean up the road rash. It's also easier for the masseur to work on the legs after a race.

some guys like to shave their legs because it feel smooth and feels much better than hairy legs .i do it in the winter and like wearing support pantyhose because makes my legs feel better at the end of the day and I'm a guy.

Plucking (tweezing), Shaving, Depilatory creams and Waxing are temporary hair removal methods.
Waxing usually lasts for 3 weeks, but it is painful.
Electrolysis and laser hair removal are "permanent" hair removal methods but are expensive and you have to find a trained professional, otherwise your skin could be damaged.

one of two reasons
1)they're fairy boys and they think it looks good, when really, it's the gayest thing you can do.
and in a slightly less gay version..
2)If they are athletes with leg muscle/tissue issues, and need to use athletic tape regularly during activites such as basketball or volleyball. This way, they don't need to use the pro wrap, and can rip the tape off without ripping out their precious leg hairs
