The only Bush that we like
I admit I used to like shaved pussies.
I've grown, and I prefer it grown as well.
trimmed a bit is ok, but not too much.
I like its smell, its texture , and the feeling when this special hair rubs against my body, my genitals, my face and mouth and nose and eyes.
she enjoyes when I touch it lightly or when I pull it gently, or slowly blow hot humid air from my lungs on it.
she enjoyes hearing that I like it, and that I don't want her to shave.
I like it even if she is hairy, because it is still natural.
In a way it's even a kinky turn-on.
when she is red or blond, that's another visual stimulation.
when she is asian, esp japanese, it is different, straight, special.
I like how it half-covers her femininity, when I get sneak picks to her pinkish skin , before easily moving it aside with my fingers or tongue
So WOMEN,
Please listen to this man,
Let it grow,
teach your man to love it,
and if he doesn't,
make him shave his,
and let it grow...
Sincerely,
A supporter of Bush

good bush = your bush!
All of my boyfriends have adored the friendly bush. Occasionally I shave, but that's only for nights on which I wear the little girl panties which both turn on and freak out my boyfriend. I can't see how it would be interesting in any other context, and I certainly don't expect my boy to shave HIS pubic hair. ;)

oh please
Give me a break will ya? Pussies all over the place. It's not a pussy Cary. That is a word a 12 year old uses. And to the woman who is afraid she'll end up with her cats and yelling at neighbors..well, whats wrong with cats and why would she feel she couldn't control herself and does it really bother her that some insensitive clod wants her to put a razor to her naturally beautiful hair?
You have to be kidding me. When will women realize that a man is not necessary to their happiness. Maybe she should ask the bozo's to shave thier ugly hairy legs and backs and arms. What a travesty.

daafje, are you gay?
from your post you seem like you might be homosexual. you're scared of "big hairy vaginas"? that's so textbook freudian.

stick to your guns
The letter writer's instincts are absolutely correct. The increasing pressure on women to shave their pubes is directly attributable not only to pornography, but to the incessant fetishizing of childhood therein.
It's not just bona fide "child porn." The net is full of "teen" porn in which the supposed youth, innocence, virginity etc. of very slight girls -- with pigtails, lollipops, schoolbooks etc. -- is made into a huge fetish. (The fact that these girls are of age -- or as the porn term has it, "barely legal"-- is irrelevant to the harmfulness of the material. In fact, it's almost worse because the user can tell himself he's "not really a pedophile.") The shaved pubes are an essential part of this and have increasingly become the norm in other porn.
Don't believe the hype, ladies. If it seems important to a guy that you shave down there, ask him how much pornography he uses. Then give him the boot. A better guy may come along or he may not, but believe me, you don't want the other headaches that come from being with a heavy porn user.

Love my smooth downunder
Full bush can be a tangled forest (why do you think they call it bush?). Pubic topiary is precious and affected (i.e., the much-touted "landing strip"). Shaved is the way to go if you like increased sensation (in my case, REALLY increased), no more hairs caught in your lover's teeth or in your zipper or under the elastic of your panties, and that wonderful naked feeling all the time, even under clothes. It's very sexualizing (I also had my clit pierced at one time, and the combo was incredible).
Let's get down to it, so to speak: Shave with Neosporin and a new razor every time. Follow by buffing lightly, in a circular motion, with one of those mesh puffs. You won't get ingrown hairs. Make sure to keep yourself shaved--do it in the shower every couple days.
LW, I'd say just try it for a month using these tips. The guys who like you this way aren't closet pedo's or compulsive porn consumers (well, not necessarily). This is not a feminist issue except insofar as you don't love your own pussy (Yeah, I said it! pussy pussy pussy! big deal). Or, consider this. Don't shave when you're first going out with a guy, and just say no if he asks. Then, if he's still around (any guy worth his salt wouldn't make this a deal breaker) after a while, and you really like him, have him shave YOU. Gotta be one of the hottest experiences I know of.

re: Earth to Mark:
I'm bestowing my very own personal red star for this funny and true post - Mark is as gay as gay gets...

men are, apparently, expected to shave their chests if they want to be seen in public
and seen as attractive. If most women don't require it to conisder men attractive why is it that ALL male bare chests shown in public (movies, print, live shows), even when the target audience is clearly female are ALWAYS shaved. There really does seem to be a disconnect between what women say they want and what the market says they want to pay for. It seems like a similar situation since no men that I know, that I know of, care whether women shave or not.

infantilizing?
Please, give me a break. What do you want to bet that the letter writer shaves her armpits and/or legs? Do we object to men who prefer that particular look as being secret pederasts? I don't think so, even though little girls surely have no hair in either place as well. Face it, current 'fashion' as it relates to female genitalia, is to keep it bare. Pick up any magazine featuring those body parts, and you'll find that only those specializing in hair fetishes are showing much more than the, now 'traditional,' landing strip. So you can pretty much figure that any man who has spent the last 20 years being exposed to such imagery is going to prefer it that way, just like most men exposed to american fashion sensibilities aren't exactly fond of bushy armpits and hairy legs.
And just for the record, it is a whole hell of a lot more fun to perform oral sex on a woman without a mouthful of hair, so if that's something you actually like, you might want to reconsider your attitude. And while we're at it, I haven't had a girlfriend in close to a decade who didn't prefer me to trim up top and shave down below, which I am more than happy to do because - guess what - its what she prefers, and quite frankly, she'll inevitably spend more time doing interesting things with her tongue down there if I keep it that way. It's never crossed my mind to be concerned that she has some secret little boy fetish, and it never will.
Time to relinquish some of those excessive feminist sensibilities and stop reading so much into a simple preference. If you don't want to comply, then don't, but you are missing out on the company of people, who you apparently found worthwhile prior to their expression of preference, merely because you are assigning inappropriate political and/or sexual stigma to what is really nothing more than an aesthetic preference. Would you dump a guy because you disagreed with his taste in art? Maybe so, but would you complain about it later?
