Woman, 21, mortified after her boss tells her to shave the ‘unhygienic’ hair on her legs
A WOMAN has been left shocked after her boss asked her to shave her legs.
The 21-year-old, who works at events and festivals, revealed online how she was told the hair on her shins was a "hygiene issue".
In a post on , she explained how her unshaved leg hair had never caused any problems in her job before.
"So I’m a 21 year old female," she wrote.
"I feel like I should say these thing about myself because these are usually what people ask or say when they find out I rarely shave my legs.
“I’m straight, I’m very feminine, and I just don’t like to waste my time or money on shaving my legs.
The woman explained how one day her manager had told her it was "against company policy".
She explained: “He was so red and stuttering but finally he told me we needed to speak about hygiene.
“I was in literal shock.
“I was so embarrassed and asked him what he meant.
She then asked fellow Reddit users: “Am I the a***hole for not shaving my legs for my job?”
However, they had been equally shocked by his request.
One person wrote: “This is some sexist bull**** wow. Absolutely incredibly ridiculous.
“Would they ask a male employee to shave his legs? How is it unhygienic for you but not for any man who has leg hair? I’m honestly aghast.”
Another commented: “You made an excellent point about him shaving his legs. Stick with that.
“Do the men have to shave their faces? Ugh.”
