To be completely turned off new bloke

206 replies

Blossombirdy · 29/07/2014 23:37

Started seeing a very nice bloke. Perfect and romantic in every way... except I don't want to have sex with him.

He has hairy balls which are a complete turn off. And on our last date, no 3 btw, he stank so much of BO I had to turn the air con on.

Aibu ti think I should give him the boot or have a gentle word about scrotal etiquette?

So you are tricked into thinking that shaven balls makes cocks look bigger? So basically admitting to being stupid?

BadLad · 30/07/2014 00:13

Most men don't shave. I don't know which nonsense magazine gave you the idea that they do, but it's complete bullshit.

I did date a guy who shaved. The most memorable part of that experience is the ingrowing hairs and being asked to help remove them.
If it really matters to you then you have to bring it up with him, perhaps not just by thrusting trimmers at him.
Ask him if he'd consider it?

My sex life is finished.

Shaved bollocks?

That's er, bollocks.

stagsden · 30/07/2014 00:15

Oh and i also dont have a single female friend who would date a guy who did shve the area - all my friends are early 20's.

Blossombirdy · 30/07/2014 00:15

God some nasty replies.

Blossom i really dont know what you expected when you posted something so unreasonable in AIBU.

fawltydoge · 30/07/2014 00:19

aye love, nip to Argos and let us know his reaction when you present him with a bollock trimmer Grin

HauntedNoddyCar · 30/07/2014 00:20

But Blossom can you not see that you are rejecting a man because he is in the same state as the majority of men. I would be sad to see the same post from a man rejecting a woman because she was sporting pubic hair.

Tackle (no pun intended) the BO as a separate issue and you'll get plenty of sympathy.

inmyshoos · 30/07/2014 00:20

Having spent many years working in sexual health I have to say that the majority of balls i came across (no pun, we are talking strictly in a professional capacity!!) were definitely the unshaved variety. Shaved balls were rare. Defo. Why do i keep thinking about kiwis??!

BadLad · 30/07/2014 00:22

New Zealanders have shaven balls?

Namechangearoonie123 · 30/07/2014 00:25

Bollocks.

I've fucked more than 40 men, none ever shaved.

Blossombirdy · 30/07/2014 00:26

Inmyshoos u made me laugh there. I just thought make personal grooming was sort of common now. Same as women. I think its nicer. Especially to enjoy a fuller sexlife Iif u see wot I mean. Im kind thinking that the boprob hints at a kind of laziness. I wouldn't wanna hurt feelings so I think I'll just cut my losses.

Poor guy. Think he's had a lucky escape.

I'm not sure I 'see wot u mean'. How do you enjoy a 'fuller' sex life if he shaves?

Wtf? I'm in my 20s and have had more encounters than I'd care to share but I javen't once come across a man with a smooth sac.

Trimmed - yes. Smooth - no.

So it's not get with the times. Not sure how the lads round your part do it but most guys here are neat but hairy.

SqueakySqueak · 30/07/2014 01:08

I would not have sex with a man that smelled. If DH smells I tell him to go take a shower, sex or not. No excuse for bad hygiene.

Actually, I'll refine that point, no excuse for not doing anything about your bad hygiene. If you smell from exercising or working on the house, fine. But for the love of god, shower.

Also, I like trimmed men, shaved men look kinda funny. No one likes seeing a hairy mess down there on a man anymore than a woman. A little manscaping is appropriate.

ilovesooty · 30/07/2014 01:09

Nasty replies? If you post such bollocks about bollocks I think you should expect the responses you got.

randomAXEofkindness · 30/07/2014 01:19

In fact, Blossom, the nastiest posts on this thread are the ones in which you suggest that there is something inherently wrong with a man's unmodified genitals.

randomAXEofkindness · 30/07/2014 01:21

"hairy mess" Confused

GilbertBlytheWouldGetIt · 30/07/2014 01:21

Not sure why you're getting such a hard time here, I wouldn't be impressed with a pubic spacehopper either. Remembering here the guy whose pubes were about as long as his member.

And there's no excuse for musty balls. Have a wash fgs. Would put me right off too.

RockinHippy · 30/07/2014 01:27

Yes most guys these days shave

Really Shock

Heck that makes me so glad I am old & no cougar - give me Harry balls over chicken skin scrotum any day Envy

& as for B.O. - if there was any chemistry there, it would be a turn on, not a turn off - cut the guy free & let someone who does actually fancy him make him happy, you will only destroy the poor guy

Finish your GCSEs then go and find yourself a real man
