For Those Opposed to Shaving *Down There*

[Greenday]

Bullshit, have you ever actually gone down on a hairy man? I have, and yes there is hair there. I'd actually prefer it shaved, at least in part, but since I'm not planning on doing it myself I don't ask him to. As for the sandpaper, I wouldn't know.

No, I've never gone down on a hairy man. I've never gone down on any man for that matter. But hair does not grow ON a dick. It grows around it and on the balls, but not on it. That's why you trim (at least) and it's not an issue.

So if you go out with someone for awhile, and you are attracted to every other part of them you'd just dump them because they don't shave there? Again I'm genuinely curious.

That's where communication comes in. You need to communicate your needs and feelings. If it's really that big a deal to you, then yea, dump them. It's not a big enough deal that I'd dump someone but if they ever expect me to go down on them again, letting it go wild will prevent that from happening.

I'm sure not all people would bail, but thanks for being honest. I've never had a one night stand, so I don't know the uh protocol for these types of things. For me it's impossible to disconnect sex and emotion.

I'm sure not everyone would either, but I would if it was that bad. If you can't disconnect sex and emotion, one night stands are not for you and avoiding them is a good idea. You are only going to be left hurt when you realize the whole point of the one night stand was to get off and the guy fully understood that.

I don't get what people find so gross about hair on women honestly. I'm just bothered by the way a lot of society seems to view it as a defect or something when it's just something that's there naturally.

As I said, when doing oral, it MATTERS on a woman. You literally have to go through it to do it. You can avoid hair when going down on a guy if he trims. I've gone down on women full of hair and women that are bare. It's just nasty to go through all the hair. Going down on a woman that is bare is infinitely better/easier and I enjoy it so much more.

If he trims *well*. Besides, hair traps stank and sweat and all kinds of icky things. I trim for that reason, and I ask my fiance to trim as well. In fact, I do it for him. Besides, and this might be TMI, a lot of guys enjoy ball play and a lot of girls enjoy doing it. But they've got to be trimmed first.

Oh and I have dated guys that had hair growing *on* the shaft of their penis. So it's possible.

I speak from experience when I say that it can grow on the dick. A lot of guys won't even trim, because apparently that kind of grooming is only for women.

I don't really have to worry about it as I've been with the same person for nearly 8 years, *shrugs* It's just a mentality I can't understand personally.

It matters on a man too, it really does. It's not all that pleasant to do certain things because of the hair. I do them because I love my partner, same goes for him. And frankly, he doesn't find it gross at all on me as we both are hygienic people, and will wash specifically if we know that's going to happen.

Where on the dick is the hair growing? All over or just the bottom?

a little TMI. hair on mine grows about 1/3 to 1/2 of the way up. I did not inheriet my fathers very hairy body (my brother did) but there is hair down there on me.

and yes I have trimmed/shaved at times when it grew a little too "wild"

as for the women I do NOT want a pre-pubesiant 'smoothy" but when it rivals a centurys old English Hedgerow --- that gets painful (I know this from experience) for both parties ie. pulling and tugging and ripping and sandpaper and lots of lub to get even a mariginal "pace" going without one party screaming in pain and the other gettin a sandpaper job.

[muses_nightmare]

It may not be the whole thing, but it's goes to about mid shaft. Also, even if it was just near the bottom, I still have to deal with it in my mouth.

I'd also like to point out, to anyone who thinks this, but it is not less hygienic for a woman to have hair. This seems to be the mentality, as opposed to a strictly an apperance thing.

[Andara Bledin]

Once you get past the visceral "ew, ick" reaction to the rational one, it comes down to hygiene. A woman who keeps herself clean will be clean regardless of how much body hair she may or may not have.

Also, I'd think that even the bushiest of bushes would really be no impediment to cunnilingus. After all, the bits that you're going to be attending to generally don't (much like penises generally don't) have any hair on them at all.

And, the next is TMI territory... if you don't want to read, skip on to the next post (buffer above and below for the uninterested):

Speaking from experience as someone who tends to go au natural, full bushes on both parties does nothing to impede sexual activity. At least not for me and any of my partners, none of whom cared one whit that I had hair down there.

I shave but that's only because it's the one spot I have visibly gray hairs.

*waves hand* Not to be all TMI and everything, but yeah, hair CAN grow on a dick. I should know; I have to shave it off myself. In fact, I have two very interesting gouges in the shaft where I nicked myself real good once...that hurt. A lot.

I found that my pubic hair did impede sexual activity, but that's simply just how it is. Coarse straight hair that does not curl of kink, but is just flat and straight, tends to stick between teeth. There is nothing more unsexy than having hair yanked out down there or your partner spitting hairs out after oral.

I told Bill this and finally asked him if I came over all bushy would he want to go down on me, he said no I told him that I feel the same way but I still do it. Nice and clean since.

[blas87]

My bf has said he wouldn't have anything to do with me sexually if I didn't shave.

I'm totally growing a frotch.

[Greenday]

My point was that hair generally doesn't grow all over a dick. A good trimming will allow for oral minus having to deal with hair in your mouth (unless you are deepthroating).

[muses_nightmare]

Yeah, and trimming on a woman will make things easier for a man, things don't have to be clean shaven. How many men actually trim though? I'm betting a lot wouldn't even think to groom at all, you have to admit there are a lot more things marketed at women for that area than there are for men. Women are made to feel gross if they aren't shaved, and that's what I take issue with.

[Greenday]

I trim on a regular basis and I haven't even gotten any in a while, nor do I expect to be getting any while out here.

As for why people feel gross, hair traps sweat and smells. And they aren't good smells and sweat down there doesn't feel good.

They need to start marketing to men more....cause trimming and grooming make for a much more pleasant experience for everyone.

I find it funny that men who bitch about shaving ONLY shave their face, women have to shave their entire damn body it seems like.
