Why I shave
The first time I shaved, no one asked me to, I hadn’t seen a porno, I was just shaving my legs and thought “hmmmm…” and kept on shaving. What a surprise I was in for.
Here’s a little thought experiment. Take your hand and softly stroke your cheek; run your fingers lightly along your jaw line. Feels nice, yes? Now imagine you were a man with a full beard. Would you even feel those caresses? There’s a world of sensation you’re missing with a labia majora covered in hair. When I first shaved down there I discovered that here was the softest skin anywhere on my body. And the first time my boyfriend went down on me hairless was mind blowing! Here was skin that had never before been licked…the last time it had been hairless was before puberty - before I was sexually active. After years and years of sex with a hairy pussy this was a totally new and pleasurable experience. Things get nice and slippery down there with no hair. It’s fun.
If you’ve never heard of Dan Savage’s sex advice column, "Savage Love," you should check it out. One thing he counsels us to be is GGG in bed. That is, a Good, Giving, and Game sexual partner. If your lover asks you to try something new, be game and give it a whirl. Maybe you decide you don’t like it or maybe, being pushed beyond bounds you might not otherwise cross, you discover you love whatever it is he asked you to try. And of course he should be GGG too if there is anything you desire him to do for you in bed.
