Hair Down There

[Oowhachamacallit]

OK girls, I have a new relationship and will be dtd hopefully! What is the protocol for Hair Down There?? I'm late 40's but trim and fit but haven't got a clue about what to do? Trim, shave, hairy? Whats a girl to do??

Answers on a postcard please!

Was there really any need for that junior?

Hmm, tricky. If you don't feel like you measure up in that department, it can be crushing. Best to brave it out and say 'this is me' - but, I know that if you really think that's not on, there are merkins available. They can look very natural and will give you a healthy, robust forest of confident, 'out-there' bushery. I have three.

It's good to know I have 70's pubes. I like the 70's (I was born in them). Perhaps we could refer to them as 'vintage'.

Then report, anyfucker. You should know as well as most, that troll hunting is against talk guidelines.

I think it is perfectly reasonable to say how this thread has made me feel

and to warn all the daft eejits who are oversharing

Disingenuous, anyfucker. But you know that. At least that's how I feel.

I put it in a bobble. Sometimes bunches ... Sometimes plaits. I'm modern me

You look like you are trying to cause a ruckus, TM. Surely that's not the case. Because goading is a deletable offence

KMFA, a side plait, like Elsa. Ver modern!

Go to your local beauticians and she'll advise you

And what about bald men (down below)?
I was recently told no women like hair on men down below.
It has to be all gone apparently.
Personally I prefer the adult look to the prepubescent look.

So 2007.

Its not just under 25's who wax it all off. Men or women.

Just don't shave OP. You will end up with a rash and looking like a plucked chicken, so if you do change anything, rather wax a few days before or Veet...

If I were new to the dating scene, I think it would probably go for a Brazilian, with the landing strip....

I would not like my DH to be bald down below. I like hair on him. More masculine .

Nope, af. No goading here. Just calling you on something which is a deleteable offence. Possibly a bit sarky, apologies for that, I haven't had a great day. But you know your post was troll hunting. I've reported it anyway, so hq can decide, but I've seen you make not infrequent, snidey/th comments (alongside admittedly sometimes helpful and supportive posts).

I just don't see why you think you should be excused from adhering to tg.

I am sorry you are having a bad day, TM.

Thank you.

Men who shave their bits look a bit like a butcher's window.

Cheers. I've got some home made banana bread?

Mmm, yeah. Banana bread. Much more interesting than talking about pubic hair.

I'm in my forties and have been dating the last few years. I've had three male partners and none of them were shaved or seemed in the slightest bt bothered by the fact that I am not either. I am quite upfront about this stuff though and I know other people feel more squeamish.

Part of the reason I wouldn't ever get fully shaved is because I would hate my daughter to think that that was normal and de rigeur. I can't really be accused of oversharing here btw because she already managed to tell everyone (at the top of her voice) in our local supermarket that 'mummy has a fluffy noo-noo'.

Having said that I am getting bloody bored of doing the bikini line trimming that I like to have done for swimming and would like to get it lasered so I don't have to bother with it (and the resultant itchy regrowth) any more. I can't seem to find anywhere very local that does it though sadly. Plus there seem to be a few dodgy charlatans out there...

DanielJack I think you are right, I think he is just as worried, he's a very sweet and nice guy.

ScrambledeggLDCcakeBOAK and TerribleMother Im not sure why Im getting a hard time either! I only asked because there was so much chat at work. My colleague is in fact in his 50's and I do not work in an office! I work with a lot of men though!

Lordnoobson I am not a reporter...I love Mumsnet and have been here for a while, I just namechanged

TBH I love hair on men, much more manly
