Lovelyish

I dont know if culture has anything to do with it but I bet it does.
I shave my area because I like that it feels soft and looks neat afterwords.

i ‘tidy up’ – shave around the edges and trimming. but i do not shave it all and i don’t think i ever will. i’m a basic white teenager, but i think that one of my influences was my mom (who has no problem walking around naked) and that she never shaved much down there either

I shave all of it… I think it just feels better and cleaner. Sex feels better because there’s nothing between us. 

I trim, and I’ve been using the Schick Quatro to do it.  I would shave, it I could get a closer shave and it wouldn’t grow back so quickly.  I love when it’s smooth but sometimes it’s just hard for me to get that for a day.  I’m settled into just trimming but there’s no super itchy regrowth.  I first shaved at the suggestion of my boyfriend, but now I trim because I just feel cleaner and neater.  

@methodElevated@xanga - when I was a kid, I never understood the tampon commercials

yeah i started being curious with the idea when I was a freshmen in highschool…..my friends were all doing it and this was a new concept to me. I didnt know people did this….it was kind of odd. By some encouragement from one of my best friends I tried it and never went back after it grew in…it was annoying n itchy and just more toruble then it was worth. since i wasnt hooking up with people…didnt have a bf.

Then comeee like junior yr i started trimming. and then college is when I started shaving completely.

I shave every four days or so and it is really time consuming and quite the chore but I feel cleaner afterwards and just….i feel like its the least I can do to keep my hygiene up and to be courtesy of my partners.

I don’t shave. I did it once and didn’t like it at all. I go to college and have a boyfriend, but he never complained I am an Asian German, there aren’t too many of us, so I don’t really know what others from my social/cultural group do ;-D
But I did hear that this is very common in the States…if I ever had an American boyfriend, I would ask him what he prefers

I shave (leaving a “landing strip”), and I think a lot of it has to do with societal expectations.  I saw a commercial the other day for the Schick Quatro for women, and it had women stepping out the shower/pool/whatever and a topiary in the background automatically being “pruned” into a specific shape.  I thought it was a clever, subtle way to advertise trimming and shaving pubic hair, especially since I don’t think young children will even understand what it’s selling.

@yced@xanga - Same here!  Those and the pad commercials with their blue water demonstrations.  I always thought they were for urine or something.

My boyfriend/husband/fiance will take whatever the fuck he gets.

That being said I’m dying my pubes.

My pussy is gonna be a punk rocker!

I shave from time to time, but &*!@#^*. I hate the itchy hair regrowth. So I just shave around the edges then trim everywhere else most times.

I just shave around the edges and trim.

Someone once told pointed out that it got to be big thing after an massive influx of porn stars began getting into the media spotlight.

uhhhhhhhh…………….lol

I don’t know.  I shave it bald or sometimes I leave a landing strip.

I don’t know why others do it I can only speak for myself, I get it all waxed because I feel it’s more clean and neat…maybe I’m wrong but I’m still going to stick to it.

I like keeping it bare, I only shave once a week or whenever I’m going to see my boyfriend because it’s tedious and annoying. Haha

I di what I do because I am comfortable with myself. I like to be bare and soometimes just trimmed,but never never too much hair.I don’t think it is sanitary.Besides,I would not want to see a guy being hairy down there,lol!

i do it because it feels cleaner. plus, if i let it grow out it itches and its thick. disliiiiike it. 

uhm, i do it for me too.  things during sex just feel more amazing when you can feel every ripple and bump of his…well you know.  and it feels cleaner and more feminine.

but that’s me.  i do understand the politics of a woman shaving her pubes.  why do we feel the need to do it? isn’t natural better?  why bother?  i think women spend a lot of money and time to maintain it.  i can write a thesis on this. 

I keep it completely bare down there because I think it’s more comfortable, cleaner, etc. Although, when I had a boyfriend, I’ll admit that it was part of keeping HIM happy too hahaha

But yeah, I just like it better. I think it’s a personal choice, but girls might be influenced by the media into thinking that bare is better.

I had an ex that was adamant about never shaving down there. Well once I started giving her oral sex and said I really wished she’d shave, because I’d want to do it more she changed her tune real fast. Next thing I know she’s all bald down there. It was fantastic. As a guy I hate hair anyway and shave down there too. It just feels and looks a hundred times better on both people.

I’ve done it on and off for a year or so. I like it, but I always end up with weird shave bumps. It grows back really fast, too, so I usually just trim the sides and top. 

I go bare. It’s such a pain, but it looks better, feels better, makes me feel more feminine, and the gentleman friend seems to like it better too. I feel really self-conscious if I have hair down there.

@ShimmerBodyCream@xanga - hahaha nice

@xxquarterlifecrisisxx@xanga - Me too!

I like it when down there is moderatly clean. It makes sex a lot more fun..especially if you have a wild sexual imagination (like me, haha)…

As a guy, I like it when a girl shaves her down there, and is clean, and has long, straight, siky smooth legs. Btw – how come nobody talks about hands, legs, and other beautiful places on women on here?

Anyhow, it is just me. Adjourned.

Xinyu

I trim around the area so nothing is  protrudingoutside the panty lines but that’s it.

I leave a small patch mainly because I don’t like a lot of hair down there, but I also shaved my entire bikini area once and I hated it. I looked like a 10 year old girl with a woman’s breasts. That and it itched like crazy when I was letting it grow back.
I think it’s proper hygiene to at least keep your bikini line shaved down.

I usually shave it all for comfort and overall cleanliness, especially during my period when I was still a pad user. Lately I’ve been lazy, and it’s not really that bad but I try not to let it get out of control because then it’s such a hassle to get back into the swing of things. I’m not and haven’t been sexually active so I couldn’t really care less what a partner would think – I figure if he’s into me, he’ll be into whatever is or isn’t on me.

I go bare- yes its more maintenance but it makes me feel cleaner and neater. My man likes it bare as well. 

I think I just feel cleaner and better when it’s all taken care of. That’s just me.  

I originally baulked at the idea of shaving down there when my boyfriend said he preferred it… I tried it and immediately felt like a preteen. It brought back memories of being in the dressing room with naked girls of different ages changing after swim team and how mature and lovely the teenagers looked with pubic hair… I was jealous and wanted to be like them. But because my bf preferred it, I kept at it, and now honestly I prefer it. I feel more sexy and it’s cleaner. But I told him he had to shave too, otherwise I wouldn’t. Going down on a guy with lots of hair, gag. Now it’s only embarrassing when I go to the gynecologist and change in dressing rooms with older women.

i clean up, but shaving everything all the way off is really irritating. =/ as long as it’s not sticking out of my swimsuit though…ew =/

I don’t know I don’t like being ‘bald’ below the belt.  I tried it, I will admit, but after looking in the mirror, I just felt I made myself look “babyish”  children don’t have hair there.  Adults do.  When I mentioned this aforementioned thought to my mother, she said she wouldn’t want a guy who liked it clean and clear.  It could mean he has a preference for little girls or children, and you just indulged in his sick fantasy.

That was enough to make me decide, my years earned me the hair down there, you want it bald?  Get away from me sicko.

(no offense to those of you who do like your parts clean shaven, but my mother really did prove to me it could lead to a creeeepy situation.)

On a side note, my friend tried shaving below and went overboard with the razor, then cut a lip.

You know what I mean.

i go bare when i have a boyfriend =/ otherwise its to tedious but i do like having a clean slate it feels nice…but i hate the hassle and itchy hairs but i found it less bad when i dry shave. 

I definitely prefer being bare. I think it’s just an expectation of women. We’re supposed to be clean and smell like roses and lavender and have this kind of allure, or something. Although it certainly isn’t fair that guys don’t have to deal with looking all presentable in that sense.

Yep, bare all! But I could never bring myself to shave, it is so damaging. I go to a salon for a professional wax. Much softer, and the results last a lot longer!
Lots of my female friends would do anything but ‘trim’. I tell them I get a bikini wax, because I don’t think they could handle hearing that I get brazilians. So I don’t think that it’s mainstream yet, but definitely on it’s way.

I wax almost all because I feel better about myself when I do.. it’s cleaner, less fuss, and can wear the bikini etc with no risk of showing anything!! It makes me feel more confident, even though I don’t show my bikini lines to everyone

i switch it up every now and then. bare, stubs, landing strip, watever. def go more bare when the bf is down there though! i dont want anything getting in the way. lol

@ShimmerBodyCream@xanga - lol interesting. let me know how that goes. lol

i do it every once in a while…..whenever my husband wants it.

But its usually just trimmed…the hair down there grows TOOO damn fast….shit you shave one day and its smooth and the next day its just ugh…….trim trim trim……is all i have to say.

I shave. It’s a really big pain, and I never get a really smooth shave unless I wait about 5-6 days for it to grow out. Shaving it when it’s already short hurts a lot, and isn’t effective. I wish I knew how to get it to grow back slower and how to get it really soft more than once a week! 

I am also very self conscious when I have hair down there. Or even when you can’t see the hair but it’s prickly. Because I mean…let’s face it, if his hands are going to be down there it could be a little embarrassing it being prickly! 

i get a brazilian wax once a month and then i shave in between.  i don’t like anything down there and it’s cleaner when there’s nothing down there.

I shave around the edges and trim but time to time I shave it all. It feels more clean.

yes i’d like more info on your routine, not trying to get into your business, but i’ve found it to be really time consuming.
people put a lot of pressure on women to shave. i got into a fight with a guy friend because he’d demand his future gf to shave. he said he’d even pay for her to get it waxed. but i’m thinking, you better be good in bed. you better make her happy for her to shave down there, cause i know this guy ain’t got a lot of experience. same goes for me bf. it better be good if you want me to keep it trimmed, but lucky for me he doesn’t mind either way haha

@ShimmerBodyCream@xanga - i love your take on this!

I have read somewhere before that the reason our bodies have pubic hair is that is it a padding against the friction caused by sex. Ever since then, I have noticed that when I shave everything completely and have sex, it is much more irritated down there than when I don’t shave. So, after discussing this with my man, I have decided that I will definitely trim it somewhat short because let’s face it, a big bush is unattractive – during oral, I don’t want hairs getting in his mouth, and if you go to the beach with a big bush under there everyone can kinda tell through the bathing suit (at least for me because I have thick and even worse, dark brown hair).

I definitely like to completely shave the bikini line area, but the only issue I have with that is that afterwards, especially if I have sex, I get HORRIBLE razor burn, and when I say horrible I mean horrifying and completely unnatractive and uncomfortable. Recently I have found a solution with the hair removal lotion type products, which definitely helps (also, F.Y.I. – putting baby oil on down there after shaving really minimizes razor burn afterwards).

So yeah, I know… long response, but I just wanted to inform women out there these little beauty secrets that took me years of mistrial, pain, and embarassment to finally figure out. =)

pssshhhh i waited like 10 years to get hair on m’ fuckin’ pubes, so if some hussy gets one stuck in her teeth then I’ll leave her some floss on the nightstand or somethin

i feel disgusting when i let it grow. having a bush is just such a dirty feeling. i have no idea how people can walk around with that.

wax ftw!

i shave it all off, always, i can’t go not shaving
like if i let it grow out for 4 or 5 days its all thick and itchy and just ugh
i think it’s gross =’S
Errrr and i don’t have a bf at the moment but the guys i’m been with like it shaved
why? i have no idea
But hey, i would too if i were a guy.

I don’t know about anyone else, but i do it because it feels cleaner and i just like it much much better. lol

@MommaSather@xanga - Oh god. That is a really creepy situation, i’m being more careful now that i read that =0 Lol!

I shave and tweeze the areas that I cannot get to.I like to be smooth like a baby’s bum. I shave maybe every week if I can. My husband likes when I shave down there. He bought me this battery operated tweezer at Wal-Mart awhile ago.

I like to go bare. I shave there every couple days. For me, it’s more about personal comfort than what someone else wants. The few guys I’ve gotten involved with did appreciate it.

I shave, especially around “that time” because it makes this SO much easier, not to mention 10 times cleaner.  Mostly it’s a hygiene thing, but just as well, I don’t like body hair.  Ech.  Gets dirty, collects sweat, becomes gross.

That’s all there is to it, really.

@momtokaynjay29@xanga - Whoah, battery operated tweezers?!  How does THAT shit work?

@emra_cadaver@xanga - It was time consuming for me at first, but since I’ve gotten better at it, I’ve gotten faster. I start shaving on the sides, near my inner
thighs, kind of cleaning up the edges or whatever, & then I do the
top, going all the way from right to left, and left to right. Once
that’s done I do the outer lips. I put a finger in between my lips
while each lip just so I don’t cut myself down. It prevents me from
making a wrong turn or something, haha. Once that’s all clean, I hold
my inner lips taut and sooo gently shave there. Then I look down there
to see where I’ve missed, and then I shave that. & voila, I’m pubic hair free! Any more questions, I will be happy to help you out

i go *completely* bare down there. i hate the feeling of having hair there against my underwear/jeans and such. i just feel so much better when i know its…plain and normal. i used to shave but you have to do it lots, if you cut yourself it hurts horribly, and sometimes the hair hurts and is itchy or uncomfortable growing back… so, i took up waxing. it was extremely painful at first but now its not bad at all!

I go bare.
It just makes me feel more comfortable and clean.

unfortunately it is common among women these days. and i say unfortunate because of several reasons.

1) it has become almost expected of women to shave their pubic hair. women should not be expected to do anything except be themselves.

2) you know who else doesn’t have pubic hair? pre-pubescent children. why is there such an obsession with youth. by shaving your genitals you are playing to fetishization of youth. and that’s gross. why such an emphasis on being young.

3) it is one thing to shave because its more comfortable for you or you like the feel better than if you had pubic hair. but most of the comments i’ve read on here are women saying they did it for their boyfriend. and he loved it so they kept doing it.

why do women feel they have to do something for MEN. why not do it for yourself? if its such a hassel and you’re ONLY doing it for your boyfriend, then stop doing it! if YOU like it then do it. but if you’re doing it for your boyfriend, you’re doing it for the wrong reasons. i was like that once and i hate myself for doing it.

be yourself! be the strong woman i know you can be!

i get waxed once a month, im not a fan of hair and i’d like to be able to see everything

@ShimmerBodyCream@xanga - That’s cute.  Really. =-D

Yeah, I do it cause it’s cleaner.

brazillian wax FTW.

i dont know if cultures has the do with it. but i think so.
I would get into details either but my current bf loves it when i have a bush. a tame one. not like a tropical rain forest with butterflies flying out of it . =P

I tried shaving… once in high school. No thanks. Its uncomfortable when it grows in, I’m prone to bad razor burn, and my hair grows back everywhere else too fast for my liking, but doesn’t grow @ the right rate down there to make it worth it because in between is wayyyyy too uncomfortable, especially during sex. I trim & shave my bikini line of course, but thats it. My boyfriend, when we first started having sex, was really big on saying, “Why don’t you shave? I think its hot. You should try it, for me.” Uhmm. No. I explained once that it was uncomfortable & I was lets face it, too lazy, to even give it another shot once. He doesn’t mention it anymore and seems completely satisfied with our sex life as is. No other guy I’ve slept with has ever even said anything about it. I dated a Brazilian guy & he definitely liked giving oral just fine even with the hair, never mentioned it once, never made the impression of having to dodge around down there. I don’t see the point.

If its for your own personal comfort, then I say go for it. I’d much rather not have to worry about stuff peaking through or finding its way out – but its just too uncomfortable & I can’t afford waxing. So I’m fine the way I am. Don’t mind it one bit.

I bikini wax and trim the rest. I don’t like being completely bare. I used to work doing research in the psychosexuality lab at my University and it’s really funny how many people think bare feels “cleaner.” Actually, it’s more sanitary to have some hair there. It acts as a physical barrier. Just as eyelashes keep dirt and germs out of your eyes, pubic hair keeps dirt and germs out of your vagina. 

@A_SafteyBuzz@xanga - Completely agreed!

I’ll trim, but I think shaving it ALL off is too much.  I tried it once, and I just didn’t like how I looked naked.  My ex didn’t like it too much, but he liked me enough to deal with it and we had fun anyway.  It makes me a little sad when I read the comments that say a bush is ugly.  And it’s actually not cleaner to be bare; everything is exposed.

I like pubic hair. A hairless vagina looks weird to me (as does a hairless penis). Of course, if it’s out of control then it can get in the way, so tidying is appreciated. 

Wow, this is interesting.
I must say though i don’t understand the ‘landing strip’. Why shave it all and just leave a strip? hm. Well trimming works; shaving would be better if it didn’t grow back so quickly and i wasn’t afraid of nicking– does no one else fear that?? > < Shave it all every now and then o////o

Also, i have a personal deep dislike of body
hair in other places such as arms and legs and everywhere else it
grows, so it’s imaginable how i feel about it down there…plus it
sucks during that time of month duuuude

@stardustskye@xanga - I agree, I do the same.

I shave sometimes. It’s cleaner and fresher, imo, especially in the summer

I hear about how people feel cleaner and sexier when they shave it down there. I don’t really get the point if it just hurts so badly and it grows back thicker than ever. If you don’t shave it, it really doesn’t grow. That is the case for me at least. I don’t shave down there. I feel like it hurts and I don’t wax it either. It doesn’t stick out .. like it’s not a bush. So, I’m okay? It just never gave me the push to do it. I have a feeling when I have a boyfriend later on, this issue might come up. Sigh, I’m just weird.

I shave it all off, there is no reason for a WIG of hair down there and it just feels more healthy without it. I have never had a complaint from the opposite sex either. They love it! They almost act like its a gift to them that I got rid of it all. haha

@TheRealRainbowBrite@xanga - I think the reason why people think its cleaner is because the odor from sweating due to the hair is not there anymore. 

@A_SafteyBuzz@xanga - Sing it, SISTER! I hear you! I do it for me, and if it benefits my guy then cool, if he don’t like it, TOO BAD!

…I would kill myself if I could only shave that once a week.

I get it waxed. Slightly painful but definitely worth it!!

I don’t have a boyfriend ( yet) but I’ve been a huge fan of Brazilians..and I haven’t stopped getting them every 3-4 weeks..it’s become longer since I’ve been getting them since last year..even in winter I keep it clean down there…..it just feels so much better and so much more hygeinic not having any hair down there….sure I resemble my 9 year old self…but I’m pretty sure that when I get that boyfriend..he’s not gonna complain about have a taste ( if u know what I mean lol) and..he may enjoy it better cause nothing will be getting in his way lol.
ok ok ok enough of that….I love Brazilians ^_^

@BellaGlam -  do the same   waxing all the way!!

I started waxing when I was 16 and now I shave everything everyday baisicall it’s just because I find being hairy anywhere gross.

I don’t shave down there and never will, except the bikini line during swim suit season.

i hate shaving, it’s an inherently sexist act in my opinion. what i mean by that is the only reason i would shave is because society wants me to be feminine, altering my natural appearance in order to make sex more enjoyable for a man. i know this isn’t the reason some women shave, but it would by the reason i’d do it if i were to shave. so i won’t.

My husband doesn’t mind either look.  I like to shave for my own pleasure because when my skin is bare it increases the sensation.

@MangoWOW@xanga - Same here.  Bare or nothing.  I think having a guy go down there with any part of his body to feel scruffy or a brillo pad of hair is gross.

I’m sort of a hippie chick (if you can call a middle aged woman a chick) Until 6 months ago, I hadn’t shaved my legs or pits in about 20 years. But I got skinny, started wearing sleeveless tops and capris and my au natural look didn’t work anymore.

My pubes are still wild and wooly, and I got a lover, and I wonder what he thinks of it. We’ve only been together a few times, and I’m not sure we are going to last, so I haven’t said anything about it to him, and he hasn’t said anything about it to me.

Many years ago I tried shaving my pubes a few times. It is itchy growing back, lots of little infections from ingrown hairs, and really needed to be done a few times a week to keep from the above, as well as from looking ridiculous from stubble (I am dark haired) It really wasn’t worth it to me, and my hubby didn’t care much, so I gave it up. I really don’t want to start that up again, but I hear that these days it’s more and more of an issue.

People use disparaging terms about a woman with a full bush. I met a straight guy recently who was telling me how when he was in the hospital one of the things that bugged him was that he couldn’t pluck his pubes.

I do know there are some guys that love a woman who lets it go wild and wooly, I think I need one of those guys. For me, I like my pubic hair, I don’t want to look like a 9 year old girl down there. There is nothing unclean about it, I wash regularly, it doesn’t stink or anything.

I have no issues with people preferring to shave, or preferring the shaved look, but for me, I guess I’m just a hippy chick.

the common misconception here is that ‘going bare’ is synonymous to ‘clean.’

going bare is NOT more hygienic.

you are supposed to have pubic hair to keep bacteria from entering other… more sensitive places. so don’t think that by shaving it all you are MEDICALLY cleaner and more hygienic… you might feel cleaner, but it’s just a personal preference.

I do and so does my girlfriend. We just don’t like the feel of all that hair down there. In my opinion it is disgusting. I consider it part of my personal hygiene routine anyway. It doesn’t take that long, and it makes oral sex a lot better. I mean everyone has their personal preference, and i don’t have anything against anyone that doesn’t shave, but I just feel gross when I don’t. Just like when I don’t shave my legs or armpits, i feel unclean. I know hair has nothing to do with cleanliness, but it makes me feel better.

@ShimmerBodyCream@xanga - hahahaha qft!

@MommaSather@xanga -  Right on!

I am all about the bare.  I just feel cleaner, and lingerie looks sexier.

I wish it would all be gone… but even with a close shave, it lasts about a day and then it starts to get prickly.  It’s pokey, ugly, and just unnatural looking. 

Either wax (but I won’t try it) or just shave the edges and trim the rest because yuuuck, I’d rather be a little hairy or completely and utterly bald… and i know the second won’t happen. 

Plus, I don’t feel much more when I shave except my prickliness rub up against him.. gross.

@MommaSather@xanga - 

omg thats what my mom said too…though i did think it was better to bare down therei have to rethink.. thinking of just shaving my bikini line

I started doing my bikini line in high school when other girls in the lockerroom made me feel uncomfortable. I started shaving the visible top area when I got to college and started hooking up with guys. I started shaving the whole thing when things got serious with my boyfriend and I started having actual sex.

He claims not to mind either way, but he sometimes makes (harmless) comments when I haven’t shaved in a while. I think it depends on you, and it depends on the man in your life. If I wasn’t sexually active, I wouldn’t shave the whole thing. Its too much work and I’m only doing it because he’s worth it. but that’s just me.

@ScreamingYourSecrets@xanga - I used the battery operated tweezer  for the areas I don’t want to use cause I don’t want to end up hurting myself or nicking  myself so that is why I use the tweezer.The name of the tweezer is called Emjoi you might find it at Wal-Mart.

@momtokaynjay29@xanga - That’s especially nifty, considering I got a thing against sharp objects in awkward places…you know, general self-preservation and stuff.

Thank stars for Wal-Mart!

@ShimmerBodyCream@xanga - Best. Ever.

I think it’s funny that the word “clean” has been used in this blog so much, that OxiClean ads are popping up

I shave.  I would LOVE to get a Brazilian but they’re expensive.

i shave it all off. it is very time consuming but it feels so nice afterward. and my boyfriend definitely appreciates it.

i can’t wait until i’m eighteen (i’m fifteen btw) so that i can go get it waxed, though. so much more convenient.
oh, and i’ve been shaving since thirteen. i just feel most comfortable that way.

I shave it all because I like that it feels clean and smooth afterwards. If I could get rid of every follicle of body hair, I would. I just hate body hair.

I”m confused why people think no hair down there is cleaner?!?! i just trim. it does the same thing without ingrown hair. I got kind of offended and felt cheap when my boyfriend asked me to shave down there because i felt like that’s my area to manage, and started wondering if he was watching a ton of porn …which i wouldnt like, i would feel even more apprehensive about my small boobs

I shave it all. The most I ever let it go is like six days. I do it mainly because I have an issue with body hair (if I could, I would shave my arms too haha, but it looks gross when the stubble comes back). Secondly, I just like the way it looks way better. I don’t even like the look of a neatly trimmed deal or a landing strip. Eff that. The only problem is the nasty ingrown hairs, but I’m pretty sure I could get something for that if I tried.
Everyone says it’s itchy… the thing is, it only itches the first few times, or if you let it grow too long and do it again. After that, it feels fine. I’ve also heard a few men’s arguments that it kinda makes them feel like a pedo when the woman has no hair. I can understand this, but I know I personally prefer my men (and women) to be clean shaven, and so why not give what I expect?

my boyfriend likes it, so i keep it. otherwise i’d probly trim or shave. i still do the edges though, because i don’t want to go swimming and have people staring at my bikini line O_o

anyway, in regards to other people, the majority of people who shave it completely say it’s because it’s nasty not to do so, and hair is gross. well, it’s a natural thing that the body does, works much like eyelashes for keeping stuff out of your eyes, only for your genitals.

now the majority of people who leave a bush say it’s because shaving is for people who like children, or pedophiles. this is also untrue because some people just don’t like it down there, and who are the people who like hair to tell the people who don’t that they are doing something wrong.

i think people take this out of preportion. it doesnt really matter. so just make it your own business. and stop telling other people what to do with their genitals.

thank you everyone for your time. well anyone who read this

It’s a very odd phenomenon. I’m pretty sure it was started by porn, otherwise no one would have known or cared. That being said, I have a problem with it. Growing pubic hair is one of the marks of puberty, of emerging adulthood, and to me when it’s all shaved off, the woman looks like a little girl again. Unless that’s what she was going for. In that case, the phenomenon is gross and perverted. But that’s just my opinion.

@A_SafteyBuzz@xanga - i have to agree with all your points….i honestly can’t understand why people like their partners to be without pubic hair, children don’t have pubic hair, adults do. and it’s quite disturbing to me that i’ve heard so many young women say “i hate shaving my pubes, it’s so time consuming and it really irritates me. but my boyfriend likes it so i keep it up.” it is one thing to do something your SO likes that you’re not particularly fond of every now and again, but unless they’re willing to reciprocate, it shouldn’t put you in longterm discomfort.

I don’t shave because i don’t need to,but might in the future.

i started shaving b/c a guy asked if i did….I was 19. Ever since I’ve either shaved or trimmed it up. I hate the itchy feeling after shaving so I only do it once a week. Now (I’m in my late 20′s and no bf), I only shave the lips and trim the mound, so to speak. lol….at least once a week where I live there is a huge rant/rave discussion about this very topic on craigslist. the morons that reply (i just read out of entertainment) claim that the women that do shave and the men that like it are like pediophiles. I don’t know if that is what men think but for me (a woman) I think it feels so much better. Plus what guy likes to get pubic hair in his mouth when going down???

i think its wierd and i thought it wasnt necesary but i started to do it and now i do it more for myself xD in a way its more confortable.
i think people say that only is for slutty girls because all the porn outhere, but actually is no one busines, i do it because its more confortable for me
