TOTALLY GEEKED!

I would simply tell my daughter, that this is her brother's wedding and that i expect her to be respectful and honor this day and that would include looking the part so shave your damn armpits.

Maybe the bride could find her one of those mini jackets that match the dress. Then her pits would be covered.

Yeah, I would tell my daughter to have some respect for her brother and the family or stay home.

I would think everyone in the church struggling to keep their lunch down would be what concerns the bride.

That's frickin' gross.

It's gross but most women don't really grow that much hair there.  As for her 'hippie" lifestyle, maybe mom and dad need to take a closer look at that.

 I've seen a few that would give Cheebacca a run for his money.

Fashion police!!!

No matter what, someone is going to be ticked off on this one. What a wonderful way to start a family.

I agree with the advice given. Butt out.

I don't understand how not shaving equals disrespect for family. It's a personal grooming choice. If she doesn't smell, it's no one's business what she shaves and when she shaves it. If you don't like the way it looks, like any other choice - tattoos, short hair, long hair, piercings - don't do it yourself. You have no right to tell another how they should look.

 Oh please.  It's just idiotic. She can shave and grow it back.

 The reality of life is that you can't dress for things however the heck you please.  Well, unless you like to be part of the permanently unemployed class.  Then i guess you get to do what you darn well please.  But for most of society, there are certain ways we have to dress and act.  She isn't being asked to lop off a body part.  Sheesh.

 It's a direct affront to everyone trying to keep breakfast down.

That is a bit of an over reaction. Surely you can control yourself better than that.

I despise looking at butt cracks, skull tattoo's, purple hair, half haircuts, over hanging male bellies, and tons of other fashion slights, and yes, at weddings as well as elsewhere.

Lighten up. 

IMHO, armpit hair, that I probably will not see, is minor.

Most fat guys aren't wearing a shirt that shows their belly to a WEDDING.

Its just her natural hair. I don't see the big deal. I find that women are held to ridiculous beauty standards to be absurd. Also, if the bride wants a certain look in her bridal party why did she ask this girl to be in it?

---

 This isn't "ridiculous".    

 

An otherwise attractive woman who doesn't shave can be ugly.  A hideous troll who does can at least be looked at without wanting to lose your lunch.

Pubic hairs are "natural", too--that doesn't mean everyone wants to see them come out at a wedding.

 But that would be against the law...

There are so many other, more important things in life to worry about. Jeeeze....

 Exactly.  So, shave your damn armpits and stop trying to make some "statement".

 Or...stop worrying about MY body.

 So what?  Not remotely the point and its not always illegal, either.

It has nothing to do with what is legal or illegal. What is about is respect. Having respect for others. She can shave her stupid pits and act like a normal person. Or, she can be an arse about it and try to make this about her. I am guessing that unwashed Miss Hippy is probably glomming off mom and dad and living at home as well.

And I  bet the bride has a younger brother with purple hair. Is she suppose to make him dye it back to a normal color for her wedding? Since, well, it is ALL about the bride and HER day..

For me, it's just good hygiene.

Shave your pits.

And your legs.

   Yes, if those were my kids and it was my son's wedding, you betcha yer arse!

Good luck with telling a 24 year old male to dye his hair to please his sister. 

When I was married to my ex-husband years ago, he had really long scraggly hair. It looked like sh!t, but he wouldn't cut it for anything. I think he thought it made him look cool. lol. When my brother got married he asked my daughter to be the flower girl. I told my husband if he didn't get a hair cut, not to bother coming to the wedding. I don't want you there. He ended up getting a hair cut and he looked fantastic. I agree that she should shave her underarms. It's a small thing to ask on such an important occasion, especially underarm hair. It will grow back.

I know that everyone has to live the Selfish Life now. And, that doing things out of respect or consideration for other is passe'. But, I try to teach my kids to be respectful. Yes, we are all a lot more casual. And, i am a very casual person. We are laid back and casual. But, if my kids are going to an event or something like that, they can at least try to act in respectful ways. Sorry if some of you take issue with that.

 How about respecting other peoples choices? 

 

It depends on how thick her hair is, frankly. If it's blonde & sparse, then NBD. I doubt she is going to be holding the bouquet over her head...

 See, you go from one specific incident to these wild generalizations.

 It is ridiculous. How does not removing hair make someone ugly?

 

 

---

 I wouldn't care.

When you pick a person for your wedding party shouldn't it be because they are special to you? This is all just superficial shallow crap, really.

 So if someone wanted to wear Bermuda shorts, sandals, and no shirt to the wedding, that's fine?  BS.  

its NOT disrespecting you to ask that you present yourself in a manner befitting an occaision.
