    Or maybe an eyebrow over his mickey a la tommy tiernans vivid description on the Ray Darcy show last week?!

    I prefer the natural look. I think men should look like men and women should look like women.

    It feels better for both, if shaved.

    Whatever he wants himself.

    Trimmed and tidy, yes.
    Shaved, absolutely not.

    I'm going to guess that there are as many different opinions as there are women. What you might like might be horrific to someone else, and what you might like on one person you might hate on another.

    Everybody is different, and even the same person is different at different times.

    Whatever he prefers really. It doesn't bother me or get in the way, so I leave him to it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,101 ✭✭✭bscm


    Whatever they want is grand, as long as it's clean, but I will admit I got disappointed when I discovered one guy had shaved his happy trail along with everything else :o

    Hair = good! Id probably be disappointed to uncover zero hair there too!

    I know I prefer to shave everything down there on my own body, but the poor happy trail isn't causing any hassle :P

    It's the same with chest hair. The same lad had about ten body hairs max, and shaved them all off. I think, fair enough, down there you may want to get rid of everything or tidy it up a bit. But I wouldn't mind if they left everything else.

    Thanks for stating the obvious, people are different you say, riveting stuff.

    I've no preference and have never even thought about it - I don't think I've noticed whether a man has shaven or not.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,698 ✭✭✭✭Princess Peach


    What is other?? Shape of a lightning bolt or something?

    Nothing like a good pattern to spice things up, keeps it interesting.

    Be worse if it was your name (or would it??)

    I'd be horrified, I guess I'm older than most posters here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,612 ✭✭✭✭meeeeh


    Don't care. I hate beards if it helps.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,744 ✭✭✭✭kylith


    I prefer trimmed at the most. I don't like totally shaved


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,263 ✭✭✭Gongoozler


    Depends on what part you're talking about here. I don't mind there being hair where my mouth isn't going to be. But around the balls, it would obviously make a difference. My boyfriend shaves his, couldn't have them all hairy.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,311 ✭✭✭Chemical Byrne


    I'm a guy and I keep hair down there well trimmed. I might keep it to the length of a No. 1 cut or so. Fully shaved is too extreme and is also very uncomfortable and itchy.

    2 reasons for it: aesthetically I think mad big bush is disgusting & messy looking, both for myself and herself. And then there's the practical considerations like sometimes you pull the hair when taking it out to go pee and it hurts.

    I'd trim it back maybe once every month on average.

    For the record, I don't like body hair in general. I think it looks scruffy and unkempt for the most part. I shave my chest & abdomen to keep it under control. I do leave a bit below my belly button and do it so it's progressively longer towards my erm, "gentleman's vegetables".

    i also shave my underarms once a month or so. I don't let the hair there get more than, say, 5mm long. This might be unusual for a guy? Is it? What do ladies think of shaving under a guys arms?

    Oh yeah, and what's this "happy trail" business? What's the deal with that?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 71 ✭✭Mr Robot


    Another guy here who also takes care of the manscaping down there.

    Always shave my ballsack, and would also shave the base of it completely and leave neatly trimmed hair growing about an inch from the base.

    It looks much better, makes it look a lot bigger and my other half likes it

    To who?

    Yourself, your partner, random blokes in the gym changing room?

    there you go

    that's a known fact

    lack of hair at the base adds a good inch visually

    It's all about ego :D

    Fascinating reading about the body hair of men I don't know - thanks for sharing, fellers!

    I have no preference.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,031 ✭✭✭we'llallhavetea


    I like it trimmed, not mad short or anything, I just can't cope with curly pubes in my mouth or all over my puss puss after the ride.

    Was I supposed to pretend I don't have sex?

    I would wear any disapproval from him as badge of honour.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,909 ✭✭✭Day Lewin


    Yeah. Long messy tangles are unhygienic and uncomfortable. But there's no need to strip off every sign that This Is An Adult Male, either. A bit of clipping for neatness is what works for me.

    Where do we stand on hairy arses?

    Past experiences tell me women are generally fine with them, but hairy backs are a no no

    :D

    Don't expect rimming on a hairy hole is all :D
