    SEX clinic doctors say crab lice are nearly extinct because so many women are getting "Brazilian" bikini waxes.

    Women grooming their privates has been hailed as the main reason behind a slow in the spread of the parasitic insects.

    Crabs can spread person to person during sexual contact, settling in hair.
    In Australia, the lice are almost extinct, with experts saying they haven't treated a case of it since 2008.

    Basil Donovan, head of sexual health at the University of New South Wales, said: It used to be extremely common, now it's rarely seen."
    He added: "Without doubt it's better grooming."


    thought i'd share some good news for a change :)

    Aww the poor wee creatures.
    What are Greenpeace doing about it? Will we start a campaign?
    This near extinction is terrible, action is needed TODAY!

    OP you need to familiarise yourself with lady gardening. A Hollywood is when Mary Hinge disappears altogether while a Brazilian would be like a virtual Ibiza (party island) for those naughty lice wanting to party on a remaining strip of hair.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,389 ✭✭✭mattjack


    What about your knob rot Dave ? any luck curing that ?

    I had never heard of pubic lice before today. Sweet- I've fed my brain for the day. And now back to my vegetative state.

    With a name like Merkin, you would be an expert.

    After all these years of women thinking mans reason for wanting them to shave/wax down there was selfish and sexual I feel we are now vindicated, we just care about your health women!!!

    In twenty years we'll probably be watching a documentary about how scientists are trying to reintroduce the pubic crap to humans and have to use something like chimp crabs as the human ones are all extinct.

    I didn't say that. But I guess the statement is the same for them as it is for women.

    And responsible for the reintroduction of pubic lice into the human population. For shame!



    Edit: Maybe you meant rugged and mankey? :D

    Brazilian waxing doesn't remove all the hair, though. It leaves a landing strip, so I don't see how it's helping eradicate crabs, when there is still hair on anyone who gets a brazilian. :confused:

    I'll stick to my Hollywoods, just to do my bit to kill off the lice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32 Brissygirl32


    In Australia - a Brazilian is all hair off!!!

    It's kind of just become a general term for waxing at this stage even though Hollywood is probably most popular.

    So that's all the women and heterosexual males safe, should there be a campaign for gay men to shave all.

    Shaving is not necessary.

    Just smear the nether regions with jam and it rots the little buggers teeth.

    Problem solved!
