To think hairless pudenda look gross?

watching sexcetera....am not a regular watcher of porn so I'm not innured to the sight of hair free pubic zones on women - so I donut get why would you want your whole labia exposed like that? It looks completely gross on an adult woman. Cameltoesville. Ick.

I have no objection to trimming/tidying/shaping. It's the complete baldness of the front bit I find icky. Fanjo lips should be disguised somewhat I think, for aesthetic reasons!

Oh!

I think they look a bit like a sad old man

in our house it's called 'the gruffalo'

I think just having a wee stripe is enough or a little square, I personally find hair down below unhygienic.

Actually, I think pudenda look gross,full stop.

I mean... euuuurgggggggggghhhhhhhhh. Is a sprinkling of hair such a redeeming feature?

Thank Christ I don't have to look at it is all I can say

nooka · 30/01/2011 00:06

pudenda is a good word isn't it? Grin I prefer au naturel

Ladyofthehousespeaking · 30/01/2011 00:07

Pudenda is a great word Grin I learnt it in GCSE english (Philip Larkin) and it resonated...

Gruffalo is much better

Yours might, the one on Sexetera might... who knows... mine is lovely Wink

Chocolocolate · 30/01/2011 00:11

I tried hairless once, it was awful - something sick and pre-pubescent about it.

Never again!

I hate mine furry. Mine hasn't changed at all since I was small, it's exactly the same, which is probably weird.

I shaved all mine off once too out of curiosity. Couldn't bear to look at it, there was a mirror opposite the loo in my office and I got a peek as i was pulling up my knicks glad i did it as now I know how ming it looks!

(but I'm sure chipping's is indeed lovely)

Horrible Horrible things can happen to you if you let it overgrow though

I know of a girl (cough err me) who let it get a bit wild- the ex had a toungue bar and it got tangled

Blush

let that be a warning to you all.

BelfastBloke · 30/01/2011 00:32

YABU.

velouria · 30/01/2011 00:37

I agree, I worked as an HCA and cleaned my fair share of genitals, both ill and post birth. Honestly nothing more off putting than whipping the sheets back and seeing a bare one.

They look much better with a beard, bare ones are just so fanny like, staring at you in their fanny like ways. I'm sure pubic hair is there for a reason, don't know what it is, but I bet it's a good one Grin

velouria · 30/01/2011 00:42

I don't even agree with the "trimmed and hairless underneath" thing either tbh. Then again I'm not that hairy really, I understand that for some women pubic hair doesn't read the job description and strays to other areas.

I let my fanny be, hairy and proud.

Ladyofthehousespeaking · 30/01/2011 00:44

Yep, you did- I have recently grown mine and I look like a thatched cottage

cantspel · 30/01/2011 00:44

stop worrying about it as it falls out anyway the older you get.

KalokiMallow · 30/01/2011 00:46

I can't say that I find any genitals particularly aesthetically pleasing Hmm

I feel "gross" is a little harsh though. But then I shave it all off, so obviously don't agree with you.
