grooming question

tldr: do men in college groom their stomach hair?

maybe this is a silly question idk. i’m about 2.5 years on t and 1 year post top surgery. it’s my first summer going shirtless. i got really hairy from testosterone and grew hair on my stomach (not in a cute happy trail way but just all over). my dad is pretty hairy all over so it was expected and i feel very neutral about it.

anyways, i’ve been struggling with understanding the grooming norms for men. (for example: when i was pre t, i had a bit of a mustache that no one cared about, but once i medically transitioned, everyone said i had to shave it). i’m doing a trip with my university this summer and they’re taking us to watering holes. i want to be shirtless, but i also don’t know if i’m supposed to be shaving/grooming certain areas of body. thoughts?
