I’m terrified to take my clothes off during sex because of my hairy back
DEAR DEIDRE: I’m too scared to take my clothes off to have sex because of my hairy back.
I don’t think girls would like it would they?
I’m a 23-year-old man and my parents are Greek so I’ve inherited their dark genes and their thick black hair. Consequently, I have hair everywhere including all over my back and bottom.
I’ve never had a proper relationship but I’ve had lots of sex. I normally chat girls up in clubs or pubs and I get lucky that way.
I tuck my shirt into my jeans so that no one gets a glimpse of my back.
I have recently met somebody at work who I really like. She’s 25 and we get along well. I want to ask her on a date but I’m worried she’ll take one look at my back and run a mile.

DEIDRE SAYS: If it’s knocking your confidence, you can get rid of it through laser treatment or waxing. Find a reputable beauty therapist and make some enquiries.
Having lots of casual sex will raise your insecurity on this issue, as you’re navigating the same thing, over and over again.
Now that you have met this woman at work who you get on well with, focus on building up the relationship to the point where sex is the next natural step.
If you trust one another then, you can ask her about your back. She may say get rid - or she might just love it.
