boyfriend hates hair 'down there'
| Mon, 07-10-2006 - 10:40am |
I recently started dating a really cool sweet guy with a huge hangup: He wants me to be "clean-shaven" all the time. He brought it up to me the very first time we hooked up and hasn't let up. I have always kept my pubic area very tidy and short, but not shaved off. He doesn't want any hair 'down there' or on my legs at any time. I decided to comply and try shaving it all off, but it is very hard to maintain because, as you know, if you shave too much, it gets itchy, you have ingrown hair and shaving rashes. He told me that 90 percent of men feel the same way and that all of the other girls he's dated have kept their 'area' clean-shaven at all times. I don't see how this is possible unless you are getting regular waxes. I have been dating for 11 years and have never had a guy make any sort of comment about how I keep my pubic area. I personally prefer to have at least a little bit of hair, but he insists that since this is his only hang-up, that I should try to accomodate him. It has led to several fights, because I will take the time to shave everything and then he falls asleep and we don't even have sex. I feel like he is asking too much of me and I have a hard time believing that all men feel this way. What do you think?

Actually, I read something this weekend that said that less than 10% of men prefer women to be clean-shaven (can't remember where I read it or I'd quote it for you).
I've never had a bf who preferred it, actually (or if any of them did, he kept it to himself, LOL!).
I personally would not be comfortable dating someone who was being so controlling about this issue.

One sentence response from Pianoguy:
"The man you're seeing is A CONTROL-FREAK!"
So don't buy into his theory that this is HIS ONLY HANG-UP? Trust me...you'll discover a few others!
