Are his wants worthy of your concern?
What astounds me is that anyone would have the audacity to comment on another person’s grooming preference (providing good hygiene is practiced, of course), or that the LW would give it more than a moment’s thought. Over several decades and a score of lovers, no one has ever complained about whatever grooming phase I was going through at the time and no one who knows anything about me would dare. One man I dated briefly during one of my au natural phases did ask if I would consider shaving. I ignored him. It was not his place to ask and I did not give it any weight by arguing or negotiating.
By the time a man has truly earned the privilege of asking a favor such as this, you will find that he is not the sort of man who would. If what you’re engaging in are more casual connections, why would you give this much power to someone who is going to be a fleeting passage in your life? Do what you want to do.
