Hairy legs in public - cover or show?

I have hairy legs and it is my personal choice to keep it that way. My boyfriend told me to wear skin colour tights in public, like wear 2 or 3 to cover the hair. His way people won’t feel disgusted and he won’t be embarrassed. Because you know, girls don’t grow hair right?

I wear shorts, skirts and rarely wear a dress. If I wear a dress I’d wear black stockings because t just looks so good. But I feel like why should I cover my legs if I wear skirts and shorts? I understand my hair is disgusting but should I really care that the world thinks it’s disgusting?

Do you think I’m being stupid and I should cover my legs?
