I'm going to agree with this. I shaved my legs for the first time a week ago. Today is the first day they haven't itched or burned with pants rubbing on me. Looking at them is even worse. I think that was the last time I do that and I didn't even cut myself at all.

Smooth... Very smooth...
No itch or anything yet. I'm pretty psyched that my legs are actually smoother than my wife's right now
I don't think she actually expects me to shave, so it'll be a bit of a surprise anyway.
Though... I think I could get used to smooth legs. About the other parts... Don't get me started

FWIW - I'd recommend "upkeep" shaving on the legs pretty frequently. It takes a lot less time to keep it up than it does to let it grow out a bit and then cut the nubs back.
Also - my SO does not like my face/legs/anything when the hairs are just starting to grow back. For me, this means I shave about every day. YMMV
I've had that electric razor for 8 months now- I'm a fan.

And it looks like I'm not the only hairless guy around here

Yeah, I'm glad mine wasn't the last shaving thread. This sounds like a whole new reason to shave.
Incedentally, my wife approves also.
