Beach-ready 'down there'

Did I really just see an advert for some razor, where a woman was coyly telling a story about getting naked at a BBQ and was worried about being BEACH READY DOWN THERE?
WTF?

Just been on holiday, felt the need to trim the spiders legs from my normal untouched 70s bush and epilate my pits/legs.

After a week it was all on it's way back - I apologised to DP for being a hairy beast and he said "don't be silly, you're not, I haven't even noticed". He was too busy enjoying his holiday to care that I didn't have Harry Potter lightning pubes!

Have voted.
I had a 1970's Bush in the 1970's and still have. DH liked it then and still does.

I bought that razor a year or two ago, it's shit, cheap disposables do a much better job, it struggled with a few days growth of armpit hair so no way was I putting the vibrating bikini end near my full bushed fanjo.

Do razors intended for women have a softer blade in general? I've never found one that gets as close as DHs razor (I just have my own blades for his razor now anyway)

I do armpits and lower legs in Summer if they are gonna be on show, I'd rather not have to faff on but I'm not confident to face the comments I'd def get for hairy armpits.

They're either going to force their staff to vote continuously or they're going to write a little blurb explaining that ONatural is different from au naturel and actually their one means you still trim the edges with one of their razors.

russetbella1000 · 02/06/2016 00:04

Just voted too...Natural all the way!
Awful advert😡
I often get my hairy legs out-wish it wasn't such a statement.

We've a long way to go really...

APlaceOnTheCouch · 02/06/2016 00:06

And the weird thing is that the distance we have to go is getting longer all the time. . .

Wouldn't be surprised, particularly after the ASA banned a Jack Wills ad yesterday for being too sexualised.
