hmm tough call.. Go for a trimmed neat landing strip? I personally have no hair I hate it

Oowhachamacallit · 21/09/2014 21:48

I dont have a 'bikini line' got that lasered off, but what do you think a 40 year old man expects down there?? A work colleagur (man) said that anyone under 25 doesn't have anything (eeek)

It sounds quite consuming Hmm

No hair seems a bit severe and itchy? No?

I'm with IndiaKnightGarden. Start as you mean to go on and keep it however you have it usually!

GlowWithLight · 21/09/2014 21:50

I agree. Tidy is nice, but beyond that is surely your call, no?

IndiaKnightGarden · 21/09/2014 21:51

Hopefully he expects to see a normal, adult vulva with some hair on it. How that hair is 'styled' should be completely up to you.

If he's taken aback by the presence of hair, then he's been spending too much time in front of a computer screen and not enough time with real women.

Acolyte · 21/09/2014 21:52

Does it matter what a man expects Confused?

Do what you want with it. It'd be a very shallow man who disappeared because he didn't like the way you'd modelled your undergrowth.

Think 35 is cut off age.

AnyFucker · 21/09/2014 21:52

OP, you should do with your genitals what suits you not what you think might suit some random bloke

pictish · 21/09/2014 21:53

Why on earth should you care what he 'expects'? It's not his pubic hair, so he doesn't get a say!

IndiaKnightGarden · 21/09/2014 21:54

What are you expecting him to look like down there OP?

Will it make a difference if he doesn't meet those expectations?

mooth · 21/09/2014 21:55

Get it cut dyed and shaped into a pink heart. It was good enough for Jayne Mansfield.

Oowhachamacallit · 21/09/2014 21:55

35 is the cut off age for what? Nothing down there?

Maybe a shortish trim and anything else for high days and holidays!

He's a new man for me and I want him to think I am also modern and with fashion, I dont believe he is that shallow - he does actually like women, I can tell

Your work colleaugue thinks that anyone under 25 doesnt have any?

Well now you know what HE does in his spare time.

MyDHhasnomemory · 21/09/2014 21:56

Its a reasonable question in this day and age. But pp are right - do what you are happy with. My DP takes off all his hair but has never dare suggest I should too!

AnyFucker · 21/09/2014 21:56

Then afford him the respect of not giving one tiny shit how you style your lady garden

Oowhachamacallit · 21/09/2014 21:57

Darkesteyes Yeah he is a bit Delboy. Made us all laugh in the office...!

I plait mine, and tuck it into my socks.

Keeps my knees warm. Grin

LEMmingaround · 21/09/2014 22:00

FFs its your body what the actual fuck does it matter what he "expects"

My dp likes me to shave. For no other reason than not wanting pubes in his mouth. But honestly i cannot be arsed. Once in a while maybe because it does feel good - for about two days, then itches like fuck and looks like dps chin!

EmilyGilmore · 21/09/2014 22:01

Ask him what he's going to be doing with his pubes and take your cue from that.

Do whatever you want and feel comfortable with we are all different so no point asking whats best as you'll get so many different opinions.

Personally I have all mine off cant stand hair anywhere other than my head, wish I could afford to get lazer. Have always had positive comments off partners too if thats any help

Oowhachamacallit · 21/09/2014 22:06

I just wondered what's the fashion these days - Im excited about a new long needed relationship, and just want it to be great thats all. I know I should do what I want, I'm not a doormat, I want it to be special!!
