Does your DH or Male DP groom his pubic hair?

Just that really. I would quite like it if DH were to take a little more pride Grin in his downstairs area Grin.

He thinks it very unmanly to groom this area and is a bit neanderthal about it.

I have thought about doing the same myself and seeing how he likes it!! Shock

Yes, he's better groomed than I am most of the time 🤦🏻‍♀️
(The kids are young! I've got no time! 😂)

He's not overly hairy to begin with, but he keeps it trimmed to a neat length, and gets rid of the stragglers!

GlassOuijan · 27/10/2018 11:51

Nope, he doesn't and never would. Body hair is not Neanderthal, it is normal in adult humans.

muffledscreams · 27/10/2018 11:51

(DH also maintains a 6 pack, and is very manly 😁)

ChodeofChodeHall · 27/10/2018 11:52

Not really, although he has trimmed it in the past at my request.

Aprilislonggone · 27/10/2018 11:52

Dh shaves down there when hopeful of bedroom activity. ....

WisestIsShe · 27/10/2018 11:53

Yep, just keeps it tidy and short. He says it's more comfortable that way.

HRTpatch · 27/10/2018 11:53

Yes.
He shaves.

Ragevibration · 27/10/2018 11:53

Once every six months if I'm lucky he will shave it all off

dementedpixie · 27/10/2018 11:55

Dh trims his. Doesn't remove it all

GreenDinosaur · 27/10/2018 11:57

My DH trims it in summer when it gets all sweaty 🤢 but usually lets it grow wild in winter.

AfterSchoolWorry · 27/10/2018 11:57

No, thank God. Manicured men are not attractive to me.

Nenic · 27/10/2018 11:57

Trims. Looks much better whenh does

GlassOuijan · 27/10/2018 11:57

Gosh, 10 posts in, and only my DH leaves it alone completely. How times change!

dailyshite · 27/10/2018 11:57

I think this would weird me out. I watched (only on goggle box) that naked attraction and men had shaved down there. It looked horrible.

DS asked the other day if he should do it and said a lot of the kids at school do (he is 14).

I don't get it. I've obviously either never taken much notice or only dated men with tidy gardens. Surely most of them wear boxers so it's not like a woman wearing knickers with pubic hair escaping out of the side.

GlassOuijan · 27/10/2018 11:58

Ah, missed After School 's post!

Bimgy85 · 27/10/2018 12:00

No he doesn't trim any of his hair only his beard. He's very hairy 

Beansandcoffee · 27/10/2018 12:01

My DP does when he wants some action.
My 16 year old DS leaves a lot of hair in the shower and has to be told to clean it so I’m sure he does too.

CuppaSarah · 27/10/2018 12:04

He does and I don't like it. It makes it scratchy which is distracting. But he likes it and it makes him feel more confident. I may not love it but it's his body and his choice.

LaChatte · 27/10/2018 12:04

No, thank fuck!

MirandaWest · 27/10/2018 12:06

No he doesn’t. He is (IMO) a normal 46 year old man. It’s pubic hair; it doesn’t need to look tidy. I’d feel it was a bit odd if he did tbh

toosoonforsnow · 27/10/2018 12:07

I didn't even know this was a thing.
Sometimes DH lets me tidy his eyebrows, maybe I'll suggest moving forward.

ThereWillBeAdequateFood · 27/10/2018 12:08

Mine does. I prefer it but I’d not be bothered if he let it all go wild.

AssassinatedBeauty · 27/10/2018 12:08

No, thankfully.

PeterIanStaker · 27/10/2018 12:08

No. Pubic grooming wasn't a thing during his formative years, so I don't suppose he's ever given it any thought. I don't think I've ever seen a man with shaven lower regions, and I don't particularly want to.

LettuceP · 27/10/2018 12:08

He gives it a trim now and then. Don't like the idea of completely shaved but then I don't like it on myself either.
