I actually don't care at all if women have armpit hair, but I don't want to see them that particular way, if it makes sense.

But for exactly the same reason I don't want to see a man's armpit hair.

It's not a sexist thing. I fully support women's ability to have armpit hair, but if you're going to have it, maybe the dress where that's all hanging out isn't the right one to choose. It's literally the same as if some hairy bro wore a wife beater and had his big hairy pits out.

And I will state very clearly that I can be completely attracted to a woman who doesn't shave her armpits. In fact, that's not a fetish of mine or anything, but there have been some very specific cases where me knowning that a woman didn't shave was something that I found really weirdly attractive.

But still, wearing a top which exposes a lot of skin, same thing as if a guy did it. Kind of gross to put so much focus on that one area.

Who is putting "so much focus" on that one area? Sabrina Carpenter, the photographer, the media for zooming in and making it something it didn't need to be? Also, is what you see there in the photo an unacceptable amount of stubble to be seen under one's arms? Would you prefer she didn't raise her arms at all, or be sure to shave right before any photos might be taken? Sorry if this comes off as hostile, your comment just elicited so many questions for me.

Who is putting “so much focus” on that one area?

It's literally a sleeveless dress that accentuates that particular area.

I literally have no problem with whether she shaves or chooses not to shave, or stubble, or whatever. As I stated before, I am completely capable of being attracted to women who don't shave their armpits.

And like I said, I think that if a man goes sleeveless and his armpit hair is visible, that also looks pretty bad.

My recommendation was just "In that situation, maybe get a different dress, one that doesn't accentuate your armpits."

No he telling you if you are trying to make an impression of beauty then you should do basic procedures to look so. For example you particularly wont go to meeting with your boss in not ironed suit
