I’ve never told anyone this, but I think armpits are one of the most intimate, underrated parts of the human body.

r/

Not in a gross or overly sexual way.

It’s the vulnerability. The stretch. The soft, clean skin that’s rarely meant to be on display, but sometimes just… is.

When a woman ties her hair up, or raises her arms while laughing, or stretches without thinking it activates something primal in me.

Not like “I need to touch it.”

More like… I could write poetry about it.

It’s the casualness that gets me.

The softness. The fact that most people never think twice about it and maybe that’s why I can’t stop thinking about it.

I don’t know if it’s a fetish or something deeper.

But it’s one of the only places that feels both playful and intimate without trying.

Anyway. Just wanted to say that somewhere. Felt weird keeping it in.

    Primal poetry. Back in the old days we called it penthouse forums

    I feel like I’m going to regret posting this and end up deleting but anyways. I’m commenting as a woman who feels similarly about people’s armpits, it’s absolutely an area I pay attention to in people that I’m attracted to, probably more than the average person.

    Are you turned off if a woman has hairy pits? I’m very curious if your attraction is specifically to bald pits or armpits in general.

    i agree with you about it being a particularly vulnerable spot. idk why but i raised my arms up once in a tank top and the intrusive thoughts won and were like “man, wouldn’t it hurt like a bitch if someone stabbed me in the armpit right now?
