AIBU?

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 find the little stripe/patch thign a bit pointless...like a Fanjo Goatee...slight;y off putting on a mans face or a womans fanny.

but equally I don't think fannys are ugly...the lippage are part and parcel of the whole box of tricks!

I do think fannies are pretty ugly, along with cocks and balls. Childrens bits are pretty non-offensive. But there is a reason we hide them away in pants.

Actually with the whole vajazzle trend maybe we will see the advent of crotchless trousers. That'd be a larf in Tesco lol.

YANBU. When I shaved it it looked like a plucked chicken and itched like hell.

Does it really fall out cantspel?!

I never knew that?

I hate the plucked chicken look too... A nice tidy snatch is best Grin

YANBU!

I whipped the whole lot off once and hated it! Looked prepubescent, felt horrible and slimey and freaked DP out.

I now sport a full, luxuriant 'Borneo'*

Can I just ROFL at "staring at you in their fanny like ways" Grin

Don't go dissing the MN Hive Vagina is all I'll say!

I actually know what fanny hair is there for Grin

Is anybody going to admit that when they take a pee with a bald fanny, the pee goes everywhere!!! Shock

When it's hairy, the pee goes where it's supposed to be and you don't end up feeling all wet and messy Hmm

I watched a recording of that CH4 teenage sex programme last night. I was Shock at the girl getting her fanny waxed and a sparkly playboy bunny stuck on it.

Maybe younger boys need entry directions these days? (In which case an arrow may be more practical).

the pee does go everywhere, that's the bit I do not like!

Other than that, I like it really short and tidy (would wax but do not like chicken skin, so trim every few days), and think nice plump labia can look lovely, nicer than a massive Black Forest, so there!

IMO, baldy fanjos are for little girls the same age as mine.
Chandon, what about old skinny labia? Are they lovely [wondering]

Ilovemyhens and chandon

I am with you on the pee!! I wondered if that was just me!! I end up having several showers a day or using a lot of wipes if I'm at work etc!

It's especially a pain if, like me, you "hover" when not in your own bathroom! I had to go at a petrol station the other day and a lot started going down my leg!!!! GROSS! (had a shower and put on clean clothes when I got home!)

Apart from that, I prefer being smooth. I get the whole lot waxed, hurts like hell, even with strong painkillers, but I feel cleaner and I also think it looks nice. JMHO!

My dh absolutely loves it and regularly "pays homage"! I first got him a "trip to Brazil" for his 40th, then I just decided to get the whole lot off.

I have to get it done regularly, as it really really hurts if I leave it too long. Apart from the fact, I just don't like being furry. I don't get a plucked chicken effect, my waxer is great, am always very smooth!

YANBU, it's your opinion at all, each to our own!

Confused It really doesn't.

How on earth would hair make a difference to that anyway?

I think they look gross hairy or bald.

Genitals are not, imho, the prettiest parts of the body.

Mine looks like a big, hairy exotic orchid, so there Grin

Really? Mine looks like a chunk of liver that's been beaten to a pulp with a baseball bat, savaged by an alsation and trampled on by westham united.

PML at Hecate. Agree that all are fairly unappealing to look at.Bald seems to child-like and therefore a bit creepy to me.

Each to their own. But I clicked somebody's link to a whole fanjo selection here the other day and it's been haunting a small corner of my brain ever since. On that basis, I'd say that at least a little hair is the way to go aesthetically speaking. To paper over the crack, as it were.

Grin @ Hecate

Mine certainly doesn't look like an orchid.

Totally agree. Shaved all mine off once...never again. Turkeys sprang to mind. Long live my bush.

I think there is something a bit disturbing about men (or women) who want a women to look pre-pubescent.

By all means a landing strip, or neatly trimmed if you are a bit on the wild side, but not completely bald.

I am sure ALL labia are lovely to someone, old skinny ones too! I am quite surprised by the wide variety of shapes and sizes.

men LOVE them, why do women hate them? men don't hate their genitals or think they are "disgusting".

It is such a shame.

I genuinely wonder where the hangups come from? It has never occurred to me to "hate" that part of my body, but most people on here say that all labia are awful.

Am currently reading "the whole woman" (Greer), let me have a look what she has to say on this topic Grin

why do English women hate their bodies so much? is it cultural ?(I am from a more body loving country as you can tell Smile , somewhere in the North...)
