Female care

Hi, I have read quite a few posts that related to things I want to ask so don't think it will cause too much offence, I hope not anyway.

How if at all, do you keep pubic hair in check, I know some are all or nothing, so wax etc, I had, well it's old now do getting rid, like a lady shave that came with a bikini trimming head/detachable guard, without guard nicks and cuts, not a good idea at all! With guard on, crap!

I want to find a effective way of removing hair on the inside groin area if that makes sense, and something to at least trim pubic hair.
There had been a very long and quite funny post on washing, and some saying that soap, fem fresh etc were all no goes, and I agree but still feel like water is not enough. But if I do use anything it doesn't feel great afterwards so not sure what to do!

Any tips or advice would be wonderful

Ok heres what I do. Every morning I sit outside on my porch with my legs a-kimbo, and let my public locks dry in the morning air. Sometimes theres a slight mist and thats great because it means things feel extra fresh. I then comb it all out and style however I fancy. Today its fishtail plaits. PP was right about tucking it all into your socks during inclement weather.

Do you know what is more offensive, some of the replies on here as opposed to my original post!

Whats causing offence?

I do wonder if on men's forums there are women who cunningly take usernames like BigManlySteve2021 and post things like, 'Gentlemen, I am a Man, and I want to know how you other men wash and trim your personal areas, please post intimate stories' and sit back pantingly waiting for replies?

About, errr, none, do we reckon?

Not that has anything to do with OP's innocent genuine question of course.

I gave the link to the thread*@Redruby2020* mentioned yesterday. I give up

I think it's another form of conspiracy theory to think men are lining up to start threads on MN to get juicy details about 'female care'. It happens/can happen but not really. There are many threads here, as OP said, where people have talked about 'female care' and gone into details, including the one about not washing the area or something (Can't remember them now). They didn't just naturally evolve into it. A perv worth his salt would simply google and find enough materials on MN and the world beyond. Actually some of these hilarious replies read like fodder for a perv. It's the image that's wanted, not necessarily if it's true or not.

Reading the OP again, I still don't think it's that big a deal (So OP said female, who cares? Many women also write female/s here but fair enough). Based on the question, the replies don't even have to go into personal details, a poster could give suggestions to OP without mentioning what they do.

But like I said, OP, sometimes you can be unlucky on MN. Other times, you make itGrin

Power jet on Sundays and a heart shaped bush trim, dyed purple when I'm feeling fancy.

Quick name change, batteries for the Rabbit on charge, Box of Hankies on the sofa arm at the ready, and I'm good to go.

I know, thanks, I think the answers are now worse than the original post if I'm honest!
