Q: A new study says that 4 years ago 95% of women did this, but this year only 77% of women are doing it?

A: Shave their armpits

According to a new study, only 77% of women under 24 now shave their ARMPITS.  Just four years ago, 95% of women shaved ’em.  And the percentage of women who shave their legs has dropped from 92% in 2013 to 85% now.

The main reason apparently ISN’T to send a message about society’s beauty standards, though.  A beauty industry expert says it’s a response to women realizing a lot of shaving and hair removal products are bad for their skin.
