70s bush envy

731 replies

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.

Not at all. I think a neatly trimmed lady garden is one of the most beautiful sights of all.

I think you are being deliberately provocative and attention seeking. You might have noticed the theme of this thread is that we don’t care what men think about this issue 🙄

Man here. I like a bush. I'm happy to express a preference but would never impose my views or criticise such a personal thing stylistically.

A former partner of mine was shaved/waxed, and I didn't like it very much. Apart from the style not looking great on anyone (in my subjective opinion, obvs), it would occasionally make my parts sore. That would be a perfectly valid reason for raising the issue.

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?

Personally yeah I would.
i like the feeling of it for myself in general but also I get a lot of skins problems when the hair grows too long down there.
if my usual waxer wasn’t there with me on the island I’d maybe take to trimming it very short like a 0 or a 1 to save the skin problems but if she was there I’d get it whacked off just as regular 🤣

Bit niche, but there's an old Morrissey video, for the song 'Dagenham Dave', funnily enough, where the chavvy jack-the-lad 'Dave' character takes the strip saying 'Dave and Karen' off his windscreen and replaces it with 'Dave and Sharon'. I could imagine Danny doing this, because Karen had too much pubic hair probably.

Allfur · 27/04/2024 21:26

Could Dagenham dave be morrisey?

ArseInTheCoOpWindow · 27/04/2024 21:32

Morrisey didn’t change girlfriends every five years like DD though.

Allfur · 27/04/2024 21:37

I thought dd's 'girlfriends' were far more regular than every 5 years

DagenhamDanny · 27/04/2024 19:46

That's your opinion. Many of my exes had a very different opinion. Does your opinion take precedence over theirs?

Not at all but it is exactly that, my opinion.

I thought he got ‘bored’ after 5 years?

What a catch eh?

DagenhamDanny · 27/04/2024 16:37

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.

Then you might want to brush up on your technique, because you're doing it wrong.

A bush? Not really PC is it

AnnieSnap · 27/04/2024 23:35

The Danny bloke is now grossing me out and making me feel a bit sick 🤮 Given his recent posts, I think he’ll find this reinforcing ☹️

LordPercyPercy · 27/04/2024 23:52

@DagenhamDanny Your posts are gross and I'm delighted that you won't be anywhere near any rainforest of mine.

Sallyssn · 28/04/2024 00:58

The function of a bush in females and males is to trap your.. Ahem... Scent therefore attracting a mate!!!

Well I was single and in my 40s when I first tried.
I've carried on. 9 or 10 years. I just prefer it. So yes i would

I shaved my squirrel once... But then I spent the next few weeks looking like I was ridden with infection in said area! The itch was horrific as the bush grew back! And not an itch you could ignore until you had the privacy to have a good scratch! They were fun and creative times, I can tell you.
The next time it came off, it was due to a product no longer available, called Beaver Creme... Slathered it on, ten minutes later, pulled it all off, as it was like Copydex glue! And as smooth as and no itch when it returned! Used the rest of that jar and never bothered again, as it was discontinued.
Now I'm in my 50s, everything but facial hair has stopped growing; I have no leg or armpit hair and my whisker biscuit has gone patchy, with quite a concentrated bit around the horseshoe, which does get a trim back every now and again!
Having fanny fur, if you have good hygiene anyway, doesn't cause a smell. I'd be happy to host anyones face, at any point of the day, in my foof.
In fact, I have a couple of hours free now, due to a cancelled appointment. I may pop out and conduct a survey... 🤔🤣

Absolutely crying. Thank you for making my morning

LOL @ the King emoji. Male ego is quite something 😂

Just hopped onto this thread as a newbie. Informative and hilarious in equal measure. Thank you all for your input.

"I shaved my 🐿️ once"

Such a great line 🙌

thepastinsidethepresent · 28/04/2024 13:57

I'd lay decent odds that Dagenham Danny has in fact never had a girlfriend and is typing all this from his bedroom in his mum's house.
