Pain is funny. A lot of pain is funnier. Humiliating pain is the best of all. So nothing can be funnier than watching a man getting his body hair waxed, especially if he screams, yells, or swears while the strips are pulled off. Though this trope can still work and be funny with both genders (say, a woman tolerating a leg waxing when she's not used to it), it's generally funnier with a man, especially if he Screams Like a Little Girl. For one, waxing Bob's bare chest or back can invoke Naked People Are Funny and be shown entirely on screen (can't exactly do the same with Alice's bikini wax), plus it's amusing to think of a man going into hysterics over something that women endure without complaint. Subtrope to Painful Adhesive Removal. |

America's Funniest Home Videos once held a challenge event to film men getting their chest waxed. One even got invited to the show to use one of the props to pull a patch off his chest. One of the many videos showed a girl waking up her dad with this. |

On MythBusters they were retesting whether socks could be knocked off with enough force, and in order to see if leg hair had an effect Tory had one of his legs waxed so the Busters could compare them. Let's just say there's a reason the page quote is labeled Tempting Fate. | |

Glenn Martin, DDS: In "Alma Mater Matters", Jackie places two pieces of duct tape upon Glenn's chest and rips one off while they are speaking, cue loud yelp. Then as she is about to rip the other one off, Glenn whimpers in fear even though she hasn't even pulled it yet. In another episode, Jackie suggests Glenn should hire a professional to educate their son because he is not man enough to do so himself. Glenn, in denial, wants to prove it but when Jackie tries to remove a Band-Aid that he's had above his elbow for a year because he is afraid to pull it off, he wimps out and chooses hiring a professional over removing the Band-Aid. |

The screenplay and novelization for Home Alone 2: Lost in New York contained a scene in which Marv grabs a piece of cheesecloth to try to wipe the paint off his face, not knowing Kevin soaked the cloth in superglue; the cheesecloth sticks to Marv's face, and when he rips it off, he ends up tearing his beard and eyebrows off. (In the film the scene is replaced by the famous electrocution scene.) | |

In one episode of The Red Green Show, Red does this to his nephew, Harold, as part of a demonstration on how to make a lady shaver. However, Red being Red, instead of using wax, he uses strips of duct tape. He places the tape on Harold's leg and then explains that one doesn't need sharp blades or cream or messy cleanup anymore. All one has to do with the duct tape is just stick it on and then snap it off — which Red does. Harold is clearly in pain but tries to deny it to his uncle, then starts screaming in pain once he walks off. | |

To accomplish this, a friendly hairdresser promptly encases him in what can only be described as a cocoon of body wax.

SpongeBob SquarePants has a variant of this in "Survival of the Idiots." While a now-monster-sized Sandy is hibernating in her winter dome, SpongeBob and Patrick attempt to puck out her fur while she's sleeping, and Patrick comes up with the idea to use a roll of tape to wax Sandy's fur off, which causes the latter to roar in pain after continuous, impromptu waxing with the tape. | |

In an episode season 18 of The Amazing Race where all the contestants were in Brazil, one of the tasks to get the next clue was to endure a 15-minute body waxing. Surprisingly, all the contestants actually took it relatively well (they at least took the pain pretty well)...except for Zev and Justin, who were the hairiest out of all the contestants in that season (and possibly the show itself). And yes, they screamed like little girls throughout the waxing (one of the guys even threatened to punch his waxer in the face). | |

The Hunger Games: Katniss Everdeen's first experience of the Capitol is a decidedly un-funny version of this. Her prep team waxes her entire body, but keeping her promise to her mentor she never complains. This becomes something of a regular procedure as she continues her role and takes on new ones later in the series. While all Tributes are "beautified" before entering the Hunger Games Arena, Katniss notes that the boys apparently keep their body hair. |

Smosh Games offered up the spectacle of Jovenshire dressed as Cupid as a reward for 1 million subscribers. Joven decided it would be funny to have his chest waxed beforehand. It was funny... but not for him. | |

In the Firefly episode "Jaynestown" several characters find mercenary crewmate Jayne trying to smuggle a weapon into a settlement which forbids them by taping it to his stomach, with high-strength medical tape no less. When ordered by the captain to remove it, he complies. After about an inch of the tape is removed, he realises the flawed nature of his plan, and begins whimpering. | |

Friends, in the episode where Chandler, Joey, Monica and Phoebe are trapped in one of the bedrooms by Ross and Rachel's big argument. After Joey and Chandler are summoned across the hall by the sounds of Monica and Phoebe screaming, Joey is persuaded to wax the hair off his arms to prove his pain threshold. It is not as high as he had claimed, although he does just whimper rather than cry out as the girls did. In a later episode Joey is persuaded to get his eyebrows waxed for his new set of headshots. He goes to a salon and finds the first brow being waxed so painful he runs out before the waxer can finish. He confides in Chandler who reveals he learned how to perform body waxing in a painless way helping his Drag Queen father get ready for shows. Once Joey stops laughing he agrees to let Chandler even up his brows. |

Australian Super Smash Bros. YouTuber Little Z subjected himself to part of his chest being waxed every time he lost a stock while playing online matches in this video. He plays the video out with a pastiche of 'Stressed Out' by Twenty One Pilots. | |

In the episode "Young & Communication" of Young & Hungry, Gabi ties and blindfolds Josh to the bed under the pretense of sexual foreplay, but when he opens the blindfolds, he sees that he is forced to either tell her the truth about whether or not he actually lied about joining a swim team, or have her wax his chest. Josh, unfortunately not knowing what he'll go through, boldly chooses the latter. | |
