I'm shocked. This thread's been open 22 hours and you've only gotten 6 responses? Last time someone posted about leg shaving it became a huge flame war.
My personal opinion? Do whatever makes you feel good. I don't care one iota whether you shave your legs.

Do both! Shav'em and collect all the clippings and save'em. Eventually you'll have enough to knit a sweater...

+1 for shaving.
Show off what you've worked hard for.

Just keep in mind, once you shave 'em, it's hard to go back. From a practical sense, they itch like crazy when the hair starts coming back. From the looks, it's hard to watch the forest overtake a nicely sculpted leg. And then, the wife starts saying, don't let your leg hair grow back (who'd of ever thought).
Good luck with your decision.
