Do you shave your pubes? If so, why?

BigDuffman · 20-12-2010 10:52am

Whats all this about trimmed pubes being more hygienic? Thats a load of cock :P There is nothing unhygienic about not trimming your pubes. In fact shaving it right off could potentially lead to problems such as in grown hairs and other such cuts and irritation associated with shaving.

I keep trim and shave the shaft, I'm thinking of getting permanent hair removal on the shaft, because of coarse hairs.

it feels and looks and smells better to be clean shaven...

I trim - I don't shave. Shaving it all off just looks a bit wrong. I keep it trimmed very tightly, and it looks cool. My girlfriend shaves so it would be fairly ignorant if I didn't do anything. I have friends who don't bother, and I can only imagine the look of neglect off them. It could explain why they are all single too.

An ex-bf used to de-fuzz his man garden with Veet for sensitive skin, one of his main reasons was because he said it made his c0ck look bigger and the regrowth from Veet wasn't quite as itchy. He was right. On both counts!

I can't speak for other women but I'd have a definite preference for a guy who keeps his pubic hair to a minimum.

Christ.. how did I end up in tGC giving advice to lads on what to do with their pubes

Trimmed is perfect.

Waxing is a bit much, imo. I expect a man to be hairy, but it's nice when there's not a wild jungle down there. Nothing to do with hygiene or appearance, it's just (how do I put this delicately) more enjoyable from the lady's perspective to not have to pick hair out of her mouth in certain situations.

So, pubes are fine, just trim 'em up a bit if they're unruly.

Female input is always welcome, it means we have to spend less time figuring out what the hell ye want!

I'd take the blade over the scissors down there any day! in fact, the sharper the blade, the better. Much less likely to cut yourself.

*scratches head*

I use a Philips Bodygroom as a scissors will not cut as close-unless you have mega patience-and no razorblade gets near my bits!

tried the bodygroom, didn't like it. left stubble everywhere!

you'd be surprised how easy it is to not nick or cut yourself with a dry sack and a very sharp disposable razor. very surprised. only the sack though, the other stuff is completely different!!

I trim the bush, shave the shaft and balls. I suppose it all stems from this one night stand I had. When she ripped off my boxers she playfully said "you hairy bastard!"

irishlad_85 · 10-01-2011 7:23pm

I trim all over quite short, and shave my balls. think everything just looks better when it's like that, and the women prefer it.

...as long as she remained playful, alls good!

I'd never shave it all off.

You've got to leave something there as a challenge for the ladies... if you're not willing to venture into the jungle you'll never find El Dorado.

The General. · 13-01-2011 1:12am

I shave it all off every 2 months or so. I like it and so does my partner.

Insect Overlord · 21-01-2011 4:35pm

Went mad with a scissors last night. First time trying it!

I'm happy with how it looks now, but some parts are more itchy than I'm used to. Will have to go back at it for a more careful inspection later.

21-01-2011 6:53pm

Trim, largely because if a girl is down there giving me oral sex, there's less chance of her getting hair wrapped around her tongue. Sounds disgusting, but true.

You might have trimmed it a bit too close. It might also be just because you're not that used to it. If it's the latter then you'll get used to it.

I've trimmed for years. I just prefer the feel and look of it. Girls seem to like it as well which is always a bonus.
