这项有趣的统计数据来自一项对2000名男性的调查。调查发现，55%的受访者说他们为自己的体毛感到羞愧，五分之一的人说他们“经常”有这种感觉。

例如，近三分之一(31%)的受访男性表示，他们曾因体毛浓密而不去游泳，另有四分之一(27%)的男性表示他们曾逃避去健身房。

Startlingly, men are so unconfident in their body hair, nearly one in five feel its had a negative impact on their sex life.

令人吃惊的是，男性对自己的体毛如此不自信，近五分之一的男性还认为体毛对他们的性生活有负面影响。

And while the average man was found to shave every seven days, according to the results, that doesn’t mean they’re as on top of they’re grooming routine as they’d like to be.

调查结果显示，虽然男性平均每七天刮一次胡子，但这并不意味着他们已经完全掌握了自己想要掌握的日常仪容仪表。

In fact, nearly half of the respondents (48 percent) admitted that their grooming habits weren’t the best, and another 43 percent said they weren’t confident in their own grooming abilities.

事实上，近一半(48%)的受访者承认他们的打扮习惯并不是最好的，另有43%的人说他们对自己的打扮能力不自信。

This is readily apparent in the results of the study, which also found that six in ten men have put off shaving their face out of dread or laziness, and 63 percent of those men say their own appearance suffered for it.

这项研究的结果很明显地说明了这一点。研究还发现，十分之六的男性因为害怕或懒惰而推迟刮脸，其中63%的人说他们的形象因此受损。

So why aren’t men as on top of it as they should be? For starters, 44 percent of the men surveyed consider it “unmanly” for men to practice good grooming habits.

那么，为什么男人不能像他们应该做的那样做呢?44%的受访男性认为，男性养成良好的仪容整洁习惯会“缺乏男子气概”。
