I'm not saying my wife does this but if she did refuse, would it be a good reason to divorce?

Did you marry her for her smoothly shaven legs, or because of the person she is?
If you would divorce over leg stubble, would you divorce her if she were in a car wreck and ended up with a scar on her cheek, or disabled?
This question just astounds me. With all of the real issues that marriages deal with, wondering if it's okay to divorce over something like leg shaving is just... incredible.
Tell me: if you fart in your sleep, would this be a good reason for her to dump you? What if you decide not to shave your beard? Or if, like so many men honestly do, you don't change your underwear for two days at a time?

So following your line of thinking, if she was in some sort of horrible accident and lost her legs,divorce would defiantly come into play right? You know I have always believed there was no such thing as a dumb question, but after yours, I may have to re- think my position! If you truly meant this as a serious question, then you have much bigger issues to consider. For instance; Do you have a full head of hair? If so what if you start going bald, or lose some teeth? The very definition of marriage has nothing to do with the physical! Remember the vow " for better or worse"?

Divorce just because she refuse to shave her legs ? This is not a good reason . Did you fall in love with her leg or her as an individual ?

Unshaven legs seems to really turn you off. And if you feel that the consequences are to leave your wife. Then you go right ahead and do that.
You have a right to leave anyone anytime you get ready. Just like she has a right to not shave her leg even if you don't like it.
These are issues that should have been dealt with prior to marriage. But if it's that bad for YOU and YOU feel YOU need to terminate the relationship all together, the YOU go right ahead.
Who are we to tell you to accept and be happy with a pair of unshaven legs. Everyone have a limit in life as to what they can and can not deal with, and if this one is YOURS then you go on, pack up and and ship out.
It's all about your personal happiness!

I would start by simply asking her why she no longer controls the beast. I can understand not doing Brazilian waxes anymore (that is very painful - and honestly to go through that once I had my man - oh no - don't think so!! lol!) But trimming it at the very least would be helpful. If she replies with anything other than a firm "because I enjoy walking around with an afro between my legs" offer to help her. I know that as I get older (and a little rounder) it has become more difficult for me to safely trim that delicate area by myself. It is actually a "date" for me and my husband. And he always receives a tip for his services!! ha ha. So before you refuse servicing her, find out why. There might just be a reason that you can help with. Oh, and is your pubic hair as soft as the hair on your head?? Probably not. However, whenever anyone wax/shave/trim and then regrows, it usually comes back thicker.

Wow! On this a marriage is based? How about if she doesn't clean her fingernails? Or if she doesn't make the bed? You can divorce for any reason, for a whim, for what all might agree is just cause. The real issue is what kind of relationship are you in? If you honor yourself in your relationship, it has a good chance of success. Usually, what you like and dislike in others are exactly those things you like and dislike in yourself. If personal gooming is an issue for you, look inside and see if it is an issue for you. Are all your wife's qualities offset by hairy legs? Perhaps. Then just what are her qualities?

It's an odd reason for divorce but I'd have to say yes. I wouldn't stay with a woman if she didn't shave. Hell I get a little disgusted when my girl hasn't shaved for over a day and some hair starts to show.

No sir! It certainly is not ok! That is something you should sincerely talk to her about. Explain to her how much it means to you that she shaves her legs. And BE NICE. And try thinking of something she doesn't like about you and tell her if she shaves her legs you'll change whatever it is she doesn't like about you. Try bargaining with her, make a trade. This should hopefully work. But if not, remember your vows said "For better or for worse."

lol well I would say that this subject would be considered in divorce papers as " irreconcilable differences" and this could be grounds for your divorce. I would hate to see a marriage end because of something so silly though!

I dont think is a good enough reason, try not to be too picky cause marriage has lots of imperfections and you will have to develop tolerance of some of your wife's imperfections as a sign of respect, but maybe if you talk to her and tell her how much you dont like legs unshaved maybe she does it to please you.
But oh well, worry until it actually happens
