Is there a reg that states females have to shave their legs?

The fact that this is explicitly spelled out in regulation means at some point, some poor hairy estrogen filled bastard fit the description. Gotta love the Marines.

Amazing!

Yep. The Corps has a reg for everything. I'm surprised they don't tell the ladies what they can't shave.

Back in the old Corps, we recruits were told we were to shave daily, "Everything from your ears to your collar bones." Specified as an exception, "You will NOT shave your eyebrows".

I had a female soldier that had a beard that was enviable by SF standards... it was creepy...

SFC....preach. I have seen many females with what could charitably be called "5 o'clock" shadow. I've even seen a few with moustaches that would put Billy Dee Williams to shame. What's worse, IMHO, are those who have that one single hair on their chin that is 4-5 inches long. WTF??? just pluck that thing out and be done with it.

What about if the female in question does not shave because religious belief? I had a similar question at a Senior Enlisted Board. What would I do if one of the females on my section had a mustache that was visibly overgrown?

MSG Martin C. I just saw this. I honest to God do not know what I would do.

There is no right or wrong way to approach this exept with tact and in private. My response was to pretty much address the Soldier in private and find out if there was some religious belief involved. I also asked the board members if it would really makes a diference to someone in the chain they need to explain why and what reg is the female violating.

I gotta admit!! This is a first!! I couldn't stop laughing as I pictured the scenario in my head!!
