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 dont hate my body, its me and we are all unique.. I wouldnt get a mirror and contort myself to study my undercarriage in depth either. Grin

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

Maybe that's what Fabbychic's wee stripe is for.

HeathcliffMoorland · 30/01/2011 18:29

I don't look at all prepubescent with a baldy fanjo... Just baldy.

Ormirian · 30/01/2011 18:32

Yes. They look vile IMO.

It makes me think of 9am on Xmas morning when the turkey goes in the oven,.

FudgeGirl · 30/01/2011 18:51

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

So men (and women) who like women with small boobs/flat chests (they are out there) are weirdos as well?

I fucking love some of the amazing generalisations on this forum Grin

Unwind · 30/01/2011 19:49

flat chests are normal

bald pudenda are not

I think it depends on the style of fanjo tbh.

My friend admitted she had the inside out run over cat flaps and that was why she won't go for a wax as she is too embarrassed that the beautician could see this.

My fanjo hasn't really changed since my teens, it's all inside iykwim. My husband calls this the ziplock fanjo as opposed to the butterfly or crimped pasty.

So waxing looks okay, I don't pee everywhere and he has less to pick out of his teeth.

I agree about the wetness though, quite noticeable and distracting. And I always end up with an ingrowing hair no matter what I do. And that is the most exquisite pain. Plus the regrowth - like George Michael's chin.

I tend to save it for holiday beach wear tbh. I quite like twiddling my pubes whilst watching Telly in bed.Blush

Plus I can never normally commit to the upkeep.

Unwind · 30/01/2011 20:06

why would pubes make you pee everywhere Confused

MadameCastafiore · 30/01/2011 20:08

I have had nearly all of mine lazered off and it has been wonderful - now I just get the srip down the middle waxed off - normally near birthdays, valentines or anniversary - get a much better pressie after wafting a bald pudenda in DHs direction for a few eeks beforehand!

Bit wetter then normal but haven't found that am spraying like a tom cat when I wee?

nickytwotimes · 30/01/2011 20:10

mine's like old holburn.

wouldn't have it any other way

CointreauVersial · 30/01/2011 20:16

The wee issue - who knew??!

I haven't noticed mine falling out now I am advancing in years, but it is starting to march down my upper thigh.

jennimay321 · 31/01/2011 20:04

I hate to tell you CANTSPEL but it does not fall out when you get older, quite the opposite. I used to work at a care home and tend to old peoples personal hygiene, it would have made my job ten times easier if it had all fallen out! blush

dementedma · 31/01/2011 20:12

it does get sparser, and greyer as you get older. definitely.
Sad

LaWeaselMys · 31/01/2011 20:28

The wee thing is so true. Hair clearly helps with direction.

TiggyD · 31/01/2011 20:31

I was going to say that they would look horrible and that the fur was their best feature....but then I realised you weren't talking about pandas.

I'll go now.

GloriaSmut · 31/01/2011 20:34

I've never understood why a grown woman would want to look like a paedophile's dream.

Bare growlers really do look bizarre and how can something as natural as pubic hair be "unhygienic"? What are you women doing with your fannies?

I can't understand "hovering" over the lavvy either, mind. If the sodding toilet is so disgusting that one cannot sit on it, why piss in it at all?

IslaValargeone · 31/01/2011 20:37

I'm crying with laughter at this thread.
Tiggy :o

oldraver · 31/01/2011 20:37

I personally think overly hairy ones are gross. I dont mind a bit of hair but just dont like the 70's porn star hairy mary.

I also dont like pee or blood getting caught up in it so tend to shave at least my lips, and I think I have lovely labia, even if they are a bit saggy and any hair I leave has quite a lot of grey

IslaValargeone · 31/01/2011 20:40

I'm dying to know at what age it starts becoming sparse, given I'm in my forties and it would emigrate down to my knees if left to its own devices.

aliceinlalaland · 31/01/2011 20:41

This thread has absolutely made my day. FWIW I can understand why people get the whole lot whipped off. Prefer a bit left down there myself. In an ideal world I'd say neat landing strip or triangle. But I'm lazy, disorganised and pain shy so more often than not it ends up like a forest for weeks.

taffetasplat · 31/01/2011 20:43

PMSL @ bear bare growler

GloriaSmut · 31/01/2011 20:45

When will it get sparser? Well don't hold your breaths. I'm an extremely old gimmer and it's not exactly deforested down there yet.

CatIsSleepy · 31/01/2011 20:45

i don't think i could stand the sight of mine without any hair

the more hair the better, frankly!

NorthernGobshite · 31/01/2011 20:48

Mine is wild and woolly and happy that way. I find it a bit wierd that women would want hair free vaginas. Its supposed to be hairy when you're a grown up!

bubblewrapped · 31/01/2011 20:52

I cant understand how pee sprays everywhere if it is bald. Young girls manage to go to the loo without any problems.
