I've-always- wanted a large number of people to answer this question./weird. Just don't know what's 'normal'.

Trim for me, wax is just annoying, shaving is itchy and scratchy and natural is apparently not socially acceptable :-\

It is interesting that the few posts on here from males have expressed a preference for the more natural look.

IsaacCox · 06/04/2013 11:27

My dh is under 35 and doesn't do pube pruning.

PenelopePortrait · 06/04/2013 11:33

My DS (19) does prune and DH just cannot understand it! He is completely mystified Smile

Yeah it's great the men have generally said they prefer the natural look. Its like being skinny, women generally think it's hot, men think it's better to have curves.

Interesting that the 'natural' brigade are are so thrilled when men say they prefer the natural look and yet will have a go at the women who shave and say they are doing it just for for men....double standards and a bit pathetic.

Wax - Hollywood.

countrykitten · 06/04/2013 12:45

So Buddahgirl why is it so 'great' that some random internet men approve of you not trimming your bush? Ridiculous.

MechanicalTheatre · 06/04/2013 12:47

Binks, totally disagree, I know very few men who trim.

5eggstremelychocaletymadeggs · 06/04/2013 12:53

My dp is 35 almost 36 and he trims his pubes with clippers. Tbh I a, not bothered but it looks neater, I trim myself as well.

And I know a couple of other blocked that do as well, but its not something that comes up in conversation tbh.

BinksToEnlightenment · 06/04/2013 12:53

I know someone who shaves himself in a nice V!

And I hear ball waxing is very popular. Although logistically confusing to me! Must take a lot of stretching!

countrykitten · 06/04/2013 13:09

My dh trims too to keep it all neat.

countrykitten · 06/04/2013 13:09

He is 44 btw.

WildEyedAndHairy · 06/04/2013 13:13

Completely as nature intended here.

Christinebb1980 · 13/11/2019 23:02

I have not shaved in a while its just something im happy with.

Codywolf · 13/11/2019 23:14

Nowt here let nature take its course

FarTooMuchWashing · 13/11/2019 23:24

I do nothing. It’s as much as I can be bothered with to do my legs and armpits when these bits are on show.
No one (other than DH) see the pubes, neither of us care so it’s au natural for me!

Guardsmans hat!

Catmaiden · 13/11/2019 23:52

Catmaiden · 13/11/2019 23:53

Arrggh zombie thread!

1Morewineplease · 13/11/2019 23:56

As The Good Lord gave!

Christinebb1980 · 15/11/2019 01:43

Its nice to see women who are not afraid of having hair. When did you last trim wax or shave, mone was about 6 months ago now.
