  i love porn, but i hate that it has made being hairless an ideal. I refuse to go bare and encourage other women to say no. I am not some 12 year old prepubescent girl. I am a woman. hence the hair. Make it neat and trim but for the love of all that is right and holy do not buy into that crap about shaving/waxing/plucking the nether regions bare.

  and if i'm against it for girls, i'm not thrilled about it for guys. hair is actually there for a reason people. to reduce friction, protect against bacteria and honestly, it feels kinda good when my cl*t rubs against his pubic hair.

  YinYangYo, I completely agree. Personally I like to keep mine trimmed but under no circumstances (barring surgery) will I ever go completely bald.

  My guy and I keep our ether regions bare and let me tell you without all that hair getting in the way you can feel every little touch so much more. I say do what ever works for you and your partner.

  Thanks YinYangYo and Mabcosmic for saying no to baldness.

  God, I have so much more important things to worry about than shaving or what some guy thinks about it. I can't wait till it gets cold again so that I can let the winter growth start. I don't Yeti out for the whole world to see, and I get out the weed whacker for Dr. appts. or dresses, but otherwise, as soon as it gets cold, I more or less quit shaving.

  Besides, those of us with extremely sensitive skin have tried every fancy razor, every special cream and beauty product to ease our shaving suffering to no avail. I've even tried some prescription creams. I have more important things to spend my money on than electrolosis, thanks. I've tried shaving the downstairs before. I know all too well the true meaning of fire crotch. I also think it makes women look like children, and it made me feel uncomfortable with my own appearance.

  Hm...I wax and I like the results. I really do it for me. Of course, men love it, but I can say this: I don't want to be "completely" bald down there. Unless you are pre-pubescent,it just looks CRAZY.

  Angela, right on I agree with you 100%. I think the whole vaginal surgery plus brazillian waxing is downright creepy. Next thing you know women will be getting hysterectomies so they don't have a period anymore. Gosh, why don't these guys (or gals even) admit that they really want to ask their doctor to turn them back into anatomical young girls because their men are so psychologically disturbed they can't get aroused any other way?

  If other women want to do this to themselves, I won't stop them. It's their business alone and I reserve my right to refuse to do something to myself solely for the sake of a man. And thank all things holy I have a man who likes maturity in a woman (his ex wife was seven years older than him).

  mike, I'm not even going to respond to the ignorance you just dreamed up. Instead, I forwarded it to the abuse department because this is the second time you have harassed me in blog comments. Angela and I don't have to put up with it. Have a nice day.

  To shave or not to shave....to each her/his own. For myself, I like mine neatly trimmed but not hairless. For him......whatever he prefers. Luckily, my significant other has some American Indian blood in him and he's naturally hairless 'down there' anyway.....same with his chest hair. I've been with both kind of preferences and whatever the man chooses for himself is fine with me. It's about acceptance really. If one or the other is a turn off for you, then discuss it with your partner and see if it's not such a big deal for them to please you.

  I dont think this is about female supremacy, pedophilia, or the rights of having pube hair. This is a personal choice that people make to feel better, look better and just downright feel clean. Alot of hair, some hair, no hair, its all the same as long as you are happy and your significant partner is happy as well. When you are in a relationship you are supposed to do nice things for each other and keep it interesting. I dont go completely hair free all the time but shaping and making it look pretty is always nice.
