In being surprised that apparently 98% of UK women under 25 have no pubic hair at all?

Is that true?

A friend who is a practice nurse says she presumes it's just a fashion. None of her women under 25 who come for smear tests have any pubic hair.. all shaved, shorn, waxed to nada.

Obviously that's fine but it seems a little universal to me. Aren't there any rebels out there?
Is it just for the boys they do it?

Does the image not come from porn originally?

would love to be enlightened!
Clearly I'm over 25 Grin

I also expect my DP to wax his balls. Am i imasculating him?

thenightsky · 05/01/2011 17:32

I like a fuzzy buttock on a man Blush

Am I odd?

"I also prefer oral sex without hair, more skin on skin."

See this is one thing I've never understood, oral sex doesn't really involve any hairy bits for me even though I'm unshaven, have all my partners been doing it wrong? (It felt right Grin)

JenaiMarrHePlaysGuitar · 05/01/2011 17:33

I found dp to be too stubbly when I went bare. He's a very clean shaven chap, too.

Visiting a friend in Swansea a couple of years ago, dh and I spent a day at a health club nearby and he reported that all the men were depilated of sack and crack.

He knew this because in the changing room they all strode around naked with their legs well apart and their muscles rippling, stopping only to lift one leg and towel their baldy undersides in the manner of one flossing.

Could the women of Wales conform whether this is generally the case?

Unrulysanta · 05/01/2011 17:38

Please don't conform women of Wales, it's not desirable. If you could confirm though?

TheCrackFox · 05/01/2011 17:39

Waxed sack and crack - boak.

llareggub · 05/01/2011 17:44

Interesting summary of the men of Swansea. I can probably guess which health club this was. I'll bet they were fake-tanned and steroid users too. Most men in Swansea, unless orange, don't remove their pubic hair.

I can only speak for men of my age though. Maybe the youngsters all do it but I shall refrain from quizzing my brother on his pubic hair preferences.

Boak indeed. And orange and steroidy too I believe. Dh would have stuck out like a tall thin hairy thing in a Soho muscle gym.

thenightsky · 05/01/2011 17:54

God... can you imagine waxing a scrotum?? My own bits are too wrinkly to do properly.

Yes Riven, you'd think it would be best to only wax flesh which can't travel several inches away from the body while remaining attached wouldn't you? Ouch.

JenaiMarrHePlaysGuitar · 05/01/2011 17:56

Maybe overuse of St Tropez makes your body hair fall out? Confused

If there was anything in this fuss about hair and oral sex, then after DP grew his beard he would have got velcro'd to my fanjo.

Hasn't happened yet. Sad

melezka · 05/01/2011 18:06

That's a shame manatee

'See this is one thing I've never understood, oral sex doesn't really involve any hairy bits for me even though I'm unshaven, have all my partners been doing it wrong? (It felt right )'

You don't have a really hairy undercarriage then.

Um, nope, I can't say my husband's developed a hairy back with age. He doesn't have a lot of body hair.

Nor any other older man I've shagged, and there were more than a few.

I leave a small triange of hair, FWIW.

expatinscotland · 05/01/2011 18:09

'I like a fuzzy buttock on a man

Am I odd?'

No. Some chicks dig hairy men. Some men dig hairy men.

Horses for courses.

I had a few sexual partners who were bisexual men who had sack and crack waxes.

And some who had tatts, nipple piercings, Prince Alberts, all kinds.

Makes teh world go round.

OTheHugeManatee · 05/01/2011 18:11

melezka I know. Sad

Mind you, it would complicate going to work.

melezka · 05/01/2011 18:13

Yeah, you'd never be able to concentrate on the work for long enough...

juneybean · 05/01/2011 18:16

People keep saying the OP made a typo but I can't see it? Confused

Anywho I turned 25 in July and have very rarely shaved it all off, can't be arsed!

Chatelaine · 05/01/2011 18:17

Does anyone know whether this applies to French women or other continentals?

Unrulysanta · 05/01/2011 18:20

Manatee if you would like us to support your campaign to be allowed to go to work with a man's face velcroed to your fanjo I am sure you only have to ask. Grin
