Does anyone actually appreciate the presence of, and appearance of pubic hair? After reviewing many of the message posts within this site and hearing from different people in public it seems like everyone is on a mission to end the presence of all bikini hair on earth forever. I find pubic hair to be physically appealing and am especially interested to hear some replies from others within the 20-30 age bracket of which I am a part. I have no issue with maintanence, but find the brazilian method a bit much. I need to know that I am not the only one left who sees value in keeping hair down there. I'm looking for as many posts as possible, please fill me in.

Regularly...a good trim is fine for me, but I do bikini wax frequently. I like to wear low-cut, panties, small thongs or g-strings so we don't want any little hairs coming out of the side now do we lmao. When I do shave it completely, and that's fairly rare, I find it's pinchy when we have sex!! My bf trims but sometimes he REALLY trims and then it starts to get pinchy too. We both hate it when it gets like that. lol It tickles and I'm VERY ticklish so laughing during sex is so NOT a good idea. LMAO Omgosh that reminds me to post up something ahaha :-)

Not only do I agree, LOL, but permit me to even to that. :)

>>...but when someone tells me that I'm not considered groomed, or I am gross because I don't shave my pubic hair, then they are inflicting their preferences onto me.<<

I would think its "inflicting" only if its . If the world could NEVER let one another know what is liked or disliked or preferred, simply because we all will construe that as "inflicting" preferences on one another, then we'd NEVER get along anywhere.

LOL!!! See what I mean? ;)

Its not the preference that would bother , for example, but its how I personally take it. I prefer to live where I do now, I prefer 40s music over Bluegrass, I prefer a patient and an educated woman over vice versa. If anything anybody likes is an act of pressuring someone else, then that only tells me that that someone needs to move on to someone that DOES prefer that person.

In fact, forcing someone to change to fit ME and the way I am instead of letting that person have his/her own preference and leaving it at that is actually, in my opinion, THE example of "inflicting" preferences . Make sense? :)

>>If pubic hair is not acceptable to many man, then it's an unfortunate day when it becomes a dealbreaker.<<

LOL, its already an unfortunate day for EVERYone already simply because there's always something about each one of us that won't fit every preference of every person as it is, otherwise, we'd all be one great big orgy by now. LOL! :D

"I would think its "inflicting" only if its ."

Yes, and I see that as no difference of someone choosing you or not choosing you based on their preference, which then becomes a "requirement".

"If the world could NEVER let one another know what is liked or disliked or preferred, simply because we all will construe that as "inflicting" preferences on one another, then we'd NEVER get along anywhere."

Stating a preference, and insisting on a preference is different.

"Its not the preference that would bother , for example, but its how I personally take it. I prefer to live where I do now, I prefer 40s music over Bluegrass, I prefer a patient and an educated woman over vice versa. If anything anybody likes is an act of pressuring someone else, then that only tells me that that someone needs to move on to someone that DOES prefer that person."

Exactly. And it's a sad day when pubic hair became YET another reason for someone to move on. lol For instance...you meet a woman and she doesn't like 40's music(your preference). You not only DON'T expect her to like it, but it doesn't matter if she doesn't. You also prefer a woman who is educated and patient. THAT preference is inflicted upon others. BECAUSE that preference is actually a requirement-anyone who isn't educated or patient, won't do.

That's what I see as the difference between a preference and a requirement. If a majority of men prefer educated and patient women, then there's a pressure for women to be educated and patient. If every man on the earth preferred 40's over blues, women wouldn't feel pressured to like 40's music, because it's only their preference, not a dealbreaker.

Well since I haven't seen any retraction or addendum to your comment, I assume you're as sexist and insensitive to women's personal grooming habits today as you were the day you made the rediculous post.

Para, I can see where both you and Electrician are coming from.

So, I'd just like to give a little input on this. A guy expressing his preference is fine. If he says "I'd like to see you shaved" I wouldn't take offence. I wouldn't do it....but I wouldn't take offence.

However, if he said (to quote Electrician) that my pubic hair was "gross" or that I wasn't properly groomed I would take huge offence and he'd be out the door. The difference is in the delivery. It's fine to have a preference, but it's not fine to deliver an insult along with the preference. I could not ever have sex with a man who had once expressed revulsion at my vulva. That is totally unforgiveable IMHO

I'll take that one step further. I wouldn't even bother stating my preference, unless I was asked for it. Why? Because I'd rather leave the freedom to choose to my partner without my influence. I feel that makes them happiest.

Actually, thats just it.

When someone a preference, then far too many times that innocent preference is viewed as a requirement instead of as what it was originally, just a preference.

When the Mrs. says she prefers me without the goatee, then I shave it off simply because I admire HER taste and her preference, not because I'm afraid she'll leave me, LOL!

Others may have issues with feeling pressured or forced, thats fine, no problem understanding that because it DOES happen. My statement though was about those others, whomever they may be, who make ALL of us feel guilty for having a preference different from their own. Now I'm certainly not referring to anyone here, LOL, I'm just referring to parts of society obviously.

Make sense?

:)

You see, we're all different. I would feel guilty for asking him to shave it off, if he preferred to have it on. I'd rather make the little sacrifice than make him sacrifice for me. I have no problem stating my preferences to my SO, but there are some things that I choose not to, and think should be left up to him to make that choice. I realize not everyone thinks the same.
