70s bush envy

Is it just me or does anyone else have bush envy? Yes I mean pubic hair bush. I swear I have alopecia down there. I would love a big soft bush. Apparently you can get a bush wig which I'd seriously consider.

Yeah, gross according to who? I don’t think they’re gross at all.

What do you mean by ‘gross’ @DagenhamDanny?

Do you understand that you’re just stating a personal opinion there and not a universal fact? Do you think it’s ok to refer to women’s natural bodies as ‘gross’?

I hope you don’t have any daughters.

Of course I'm just stating an opinion. One of my exes had a full rainforest down there. I was frequently still finding pubes between my teeth the morning after.

But a full overgrown rainforest IS gross. Not necessarily unhygienic but definitely gross.

Interesting that people on this site will call anything and everything misogyny but somehow this is just an opinion.

Would you say this to a child or teenage girl, that her body is gross? Would you be happy for your daughter, niece or any girl to internalise this message?

I haven't said that anyone's body is gross.

According to me. I'm allowed an opinion, just like you are.

Yes you have. What else does this mean? But a full overgrown rainforest IS gross. A “full overgrown rainforest” is attached to a human body, isn’t it? It doesn’t exist in isolation.

But you are slagging off a female body.

Im not doing that.

All that proves is your ineptitude. How on earth would pubes get between your teeth?

In your mouth occasionally yes, if you hadn't quite moved them all out of the way with your hand, but actually between your teeth?

You have said that a normal part of a woman’s body is ‘gross’. Girls and women absorb these sort of messages all the time. That our boobs aren’t big enough or are too big; our labia likewise; our anuses aren’t pink enough; or our genitals smell or whatever.

FFS.

We get the message loud and clear:
Women, you’re disgusting- sort yourselves out. (Luckily we have this range of products, treatments and surgeries that can fix you💰)

In Your Opinion - not objectively 🙄

Tartantotty · 27/04/2024 18:56

A wig! For f's sake! Just shave your whiskers and you'll be all lovely and smooth - hygienic and pretty that way.

In my view, big bushes are pretty gross and unhygienic. When they were fashionable in the old days public lice was common!

AInightingale · 27/04/2024 18:58

Have a lot of exes do you @DagenhamDanny .

Allfur · 27/04/2024 19:01

So for the fluff free fanny crowd (who do it for themselves, not their partners) - even alone on a desert island, if facilities existed, you'd still denude?

Well, apart from her out of control foliage, she was stunning. As far away from gross as can be, in fact.

You'd be surprised.

And she would NEVER have described me as 'inept'. You'll just have to take my word on that one.

Yes, as I have already stated.

LadySugar · 27/04/2024 19:18

I'm giving an opinion.

Your opinion is that women and girls natural bodies are gross.

That's not an opinion anyone particularly needs to hear. I mean, feel free to date accordingly but there's no need to I still insecurities in others. It's pretty bad taste for a man to come on her ex adding to the stigma towards women's body hair.

Not unhygenic or gross, it's natural, pubic lice are still around so that's bollocks too!

This thread has made me realise how many men are on MN.

Idontknowwhattodo78 · 27/04/2024 19:30

Don’t care what anyone else does, each to their own. I have all mine off (years ago, my long term Waxer did it by accident when we were discussing a particularly scandalous incident in our village 🤣🤣🤣) She was mortified, I wasn’t that bothered, but I did find I prefer it. DH doesn’t care either way and I wouldn’t change it even if he did. It works for me, so that’s all that matters really. And no, in 6 years I’ve never had any gynae issues around it.
I do have to say though that DH does no hair removal (which is fine, I don’t think I would want him to! ) but I do occasionally get pubes stuck in my teeth 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Yes, of course. But, despite what you might think, it's very easy to know whether an orgasm is fake or not.
