I tell my wife she doesn't have to but she hates how it feels. And for whatever reason she feels more confident and sexy that way. It had nothing to do with me. I'm not gonna dissect what role society has in how she landed on her preference, I'm just gonna respect her preference.

I did not say that it had anything to do with you and if your wife likes shaving that‘s completely fine. All I‘m saying is, that women shaving their legs has originally nothing to do with how it feels. It came with the introduction of short dresses and grew into a beauty standard and societal norm.
So yes, some women like it that way but many don‘t and yet still feel the pressure to do it.
