i think that this would vary from guy to guy depending upon how hairy a guy may be

the coarseness or thickness of each guy's body hair would also vary and therefore be a factor for blade life

btw, shorter hair does not necessarily mean thinner or easier on the blade.

More like the one who likes to look like tinkerbell. Women don't like shaved men, but you might not know that yet.
