To Shave, or Not to Shave

That is the question....So, what is YOUR preference? Do you shave or wax your nether regions? Do you prefer for your SO to shave, trim, or go all natural? Do you see any pros or cons to shaving/waxing or not shaving. Please feel free to share your thoughts until your heart is content. I'm feeling a little like curious george today, so I want to ask questions. *Let's do our bestest (hehe I love using bad grammer sometimes) to keep it clean, please, I don't want our thread to get in trouble*

I keep it trimmed. Been thinking of shaving.

I believe whatever makes someone happy is what they should do. Who am I to tell them what is right or wrong. We are all our own individuals. Imagine if we were all alike just how boring the world would be!

Well I keep the area above mr johnson and the boys trimmed really short and the from the boys all the way back is smooth as can be!!!! I think it feels sooo much better that way when a nice warm tongue slides across there!!!!

My husband does the same thing as far your shave pattern, sometimes he'll shave the hair above "mr. johnson" (lol) in a bikini type shape---you know the ones that guys when they're waxed...well I've seen male porn stars with it. Anyway, when he does this, it's very pleasing to the eye, and I agree with you that it's much easier to slide a wet tongue along a smooth area. If my guy should choose to let his hair grow out at times, I don't mind, either or is fine with me, the equipment works the same even if a little more downy covered.

So, what is YOUR preference? I don't really have a preference, although I will say that hair on a man's nether region can look really hot.
Do you shave or wax your nether regions? I wax my bikini line, but every 3 months or so I'll get adventurous and get a Sphinx (completely bare thanks to waxing). I think it makes oral sex a little easier to perform for my man. However, even when I don't get it all waxed off, I always get the outer/lower labia completely waxed.
Do you see any pros or cons to shaving/waxing or not shaving? Cons to shaving/waxing is when it starts to grow back. Most of the time the hair will be prickly and bite ya. Unshaved, or unwaxed hair has a soft-downy feel and provides great cushioning. Bald and beautiful minimizes the chances of getting hair in your mouth during oral.

I shave... or more accurately, DH shaves me. I probably do it twice a month when I'm in a rush, but he does it most of the time and it usually leads to play time. I prefer being smooth.

My DH shaves bare down there. Occasionally I'll do it for him. I honestly don't think I have a preference on whether or not men shave down there. It does make oral more fun when I'm not getting hair in my mouth, but other than that it's not a big deal to me.

BF and I both "shave" we both use hair removal cream on the "hard skin" like the abdomen and then we both shave the more sensitive skin that the cream could risk burning. I like the cream becasue neither of us have the itchy regrowth that you can get with shaving and I dont like the cost or pain of waxing...
I have far more intense man on top positions when he is bare downtown.... I like to feel skin on skin with out the hair in the way....
Just my 2 cents

I guess I prefer to go natural. My ex bf liked me shaved but since I broke up with him it's been all natural. My ex husband liked hair and I have lots of it down there.

I like to be shaved, or at least trimmed.

Bare all the way around. There is nothing nicer than a warm tongue on freshly-shaven skin. It also seems much cleaner in the Texas Heat....

Do you shave or wax your nether regions? I have a full bikin wax every 3 months. In between, I'll shave/trim when needed. I'm lucky in the sense that my hair down there is slow to grow. I do prefer having my small landing strip over natural or bald. I just like the look and feel of it.

Do you prefer for your SO to shave, trim, or go all natural? DH keeps his nicely trimmed. He has shaved a few times, but is susceptible to getting ingrown hairs. I'll take trimmed over natural.

Do you see any pros or cons to shaving/waxing or not shaving. Probably nothing more than has already been brought up. Waxing and keeping myself closely trimmed just feels fresher. It's also less messy during that time of the month. As for cons of waxing, the initial pain is uncomfortable sure, but it's really not THAT bad.
