Oh the humanity!

Women only shave their legs because in the 1910s and '20s fashionable dress hemlines became shorter and an article or two -- published in persuasive women's magazines -- called leg hair "objectionable."  

Similar magazines today tell women we can lose weight by eating cookies.
 
Balderdash. On both accounts. 


If the picture above is horrifying, it's not because I don't shave my legs.
