Does anyone know when or how it became unattractive to have pubes. I'm 33 now and in my early 20's it was never an issue. I always had them and non of my boyfs ever complained. It was never mentioned. I even dyed em blue once with hair mascara to surprise a boyf :) fast forward 10 years and i find myself in agony at the waxing parlor wondering why i'm doing it? It's not pressure from my current man and i don't really watch porn or any tv programs of that sort. It seems to have creeped up on me and many of my friends are the same. I'm fumoxed as to where this trend started. What do people think?

I think it was about 10 years ago that it became mainstream. I have no intention of following suit and have been married for ages anyway. Even women my age (40) seem to have succumbed to the idea and say that they find the idea of pubic hair unhygienic. Fair enough if they genuinely feel that way, I'm just surprised that they were happy not to wax it all off 15 years ago. Hmm

I have never ever waxed or shaved mine right off (am 38). I trim with scissors or use a ladyshave to make it short but not bald.
