Dear Mouthy Housewives,

I'm back on the dating market after a long, drawn-out divorce and eager to meet a new guy. I know this is a little ridiculous, but my question is: do men prefer natural hair down below, or the 100% waxed, Brazilian look? And why?

To Wax or Not to Wax

Dear Wax No Wax,

Here at the Mouthy Housewives, we go that extra mile for our readers. So I decided to conduct a formal research project by polling men on this topic. I selected all of the men in my Facebook friends list and asked if they preferred a nude hoo-haa or a naturally hairy one and why. Two days later I find myself with no male friends on Facebook. I don't understand what happened?

But who needs Facebook?! While at the library, I polled the men who happened to be there that day, which most were on an outing from an assisted living facility. I don't think the elderly know what a Brazlian wax job is because they kept telling me to wash my mouth out with soap. What does that have to do with pubic hair?

In the end I could only get poll results from my husband and one of his friends. My research shows the following:

50% of men prefer a well-groomed natural look since a fully denuded hoo-haa reminds them of a prepubescent girl.

50% of men prefer a Brazilian waxed hoo-haa for its cleanliness and ease of maneuverability.

Are you wondering what in the world "ease of maneuverability" means in terms of lady bits? Me too! Then I realized that particular male subject is a close descendant of Sasquatch, thus having enough body hair for two people. Add any more hair into the mix and the friction creates a fire hazard.

So unless you are dating Sasquatch's great great-grandson, I say it's up to you. Some women swear the Brazilian upkeep brings more pleasure, and while I don't reject the hypothesis, I do reject the pain, especially if the man doesn't reciprocate by also waxing his manly bits. A full Brazilian, a bushy Sasquatch, or somewhere in between, discover your preference and forget the men.

Signed,

Heather, TMH
