First, I must playfully nominate this thread for "Sticky" status. Second, as I am a frequent contributor to it, I must add some further insights.
The chest hair ain't going anywhere people. Forget making me wear a t-shirt under my scrubs, too. Do you wear a "sweater" under your daily clothing? I do.
Please don't be offended by my secondary sexual characteristics. (The primary ones are so much more offensive, anyway)
I prefer to look at it all as an interesting thermal challenge, and some interesting looks of recognition at the primate exhibit. (On both sides of the plexi-glass, I might add)
It is what it is, and unless you have it, you really shouldn't condemn it. I could cite many more modifiable traits that are REALLY offensive and unprofessional that leave my "man carpet" in the dust.
