Since I have a self-imposed ban on returning to the ESPY discussion and going insane battling Ion Beza, I have a new post. Warning - this post is odd but I have been contemplating asking the panel of experts for a few months now.
Here's my problem (one among many), I'm losing my body hair. Does anyone else have this problem who swims a lot? I'm not a nutty swimmer, probably swimming around 7-8 hours per week. mostly indoors. But, I'm telling you, I am disturbed by what has happened to me. My wife is disturbed by the neighborhood women asking her if her husband shaves his legs and dyes his hair (neither of which I do).
I really didn't notice anything until I went to a party with some co-workers and was wearing shorts. The remarks have been unlimited since then. Most commonly I am now referred to as Mr. Bigglesworth, that hairless cat from the Austin Powers movie.
In all seriousness, is this a common problem? Any tips on what I can do to reverse this or mitigate it?

Since starting back swimming 16 months ago I can definitely tell that I have less body hair....mostly on the arms and legs. No worries for me as I don't really care for being hairy anyway.
As far as body care products I've been having success with "Tri-Swim", both the body wash and lotion. Both smell great and seem to help with that post swim itchiness. Not sure what retailers carry it, but I'm getting through my mother at Kastaway Swimwear.
