  • Bite, Indeed

    I'll probably hate myself for taking the bait here, but Brightstar, if you're that concerned about Big Bad Germs, don't ever kiss anyone. The mouth is filthier than the genitalia, by far. Besides, you don't have to fucking circumcise yourself every single day (if shaving) or every single month (if waxing), at your own expense. I have mixed feelings about circumcision myself but it's NOT the same thing, not even in the ballpark.

    Not that any of it matters, because no woman will ever be good enough for you anyway, holding out as you are for a Scarlett Johanssen lookalike who's sweet and submissive, and if you ever did find her and she ever did miracle of miracles agree to have anything to do with you, you'd probably fault her ironing skills or something else equally minute and kick her toned blonde ass to the curb. Shit howdy, if I hated men as much as you hate women, I'd go lesbian in a minute. Why don't you just make the switch and be done with it?

  • Dimstar Strikes Again

    "Bright" star doesn't need a pussy; he is one.

  • Shave it, wax it, better yet LAZER it!

    My answer to Cary is to get rid of it all! It's gross! I'm a guy and I shave ALL the hair off! It's effin' gross and unsanitary. I've shaved and had lazer done on my bush/now not a bush and have no regrets. Cleaner and more erotic, to be honest. For sure I prefer bush-less women! (not to get political-but pun intended!). In Portland here the big fashion craze is shaving it ALL OFF both guys and gals. The alternative newsweekly here Willamette Week even did a cover story on it awhile back, naming all the hip places to be de-pubed.

    Shave it you'll like it,

  • p$^^tol

    I love 70's style bush, I agree with shaving underarms and legs as I am used to that.

    These days strip clubs porn movies require shaving, cause that's what the young guys want. It appears my side has lost the pubic war. As for cleanliness, that can be endlessly dabated. Many women are now buying into this.

    To paraphrase a rock star when his band broke up - We have the old Golden age porn movies if we want to reminisce

  • Throw away the razor, ladies!

    be proud of your bodies and let that sexy hair grow!

  • RE:Throw away the razor, ladies!

    Men do the same thing.

  • Funny Story About Shaving Scrot-Bags

    This guy i read about in a men's mag shaved his testicles. He got ingrown hairs on one of them, it turned inward and infected the whole testicle. Doctors ended up making a scrot bag that housed the testicle sewed to his inner thigh.

    Yuck

  • Doesn't anyone here know how to play this game?

    After skimming over a number of responses, I have to figure that hardly anyone here gets it.

    Asking a woman to shave can be a very mild dominance game. The last time I played that game was a number of years ago -- long before it became a fad.

    Each of the times I tried it, I found that the woman became incredibly aroused and preoccupied with sex for weeks. (You have to be careful what you wish for).

    Hygene? Good Grief!

  • Go Natural and Join the Campaign

    I hate the weird idea that women who don't shave/wax/lazer their snatches are dirty, smelly, or gross. Hair grows down there for a reason. Pubes protect the vagina much like eyelashes protect the eyes. Sure, some women like being bald or having a landing strip. That's fine, but no one should be pressured into it.

    If you are pro-bush (and anti-Bush), join the Campaign for Unshaved Snatch (CUSS)& Other Rants at www.cussandotherrants.com.

  • What is all the fuss about?

    I wonder. To shave or not to shave & where & how is simply a matter of choice, like other fashion choices (pluck, be slim, dye, manicure) and should really not be such a big deal. Of course, there are magazines, tv shows, movies &c setting and then presenting fashion as a Very Important Thing, but it's your choice whether you will follow. But if you don't, please do not yourself make it a Very Important Thing by believing that it matters that much.

    Re the guys: like the letters show, there's all kinds out there. Every relationship (including 1 night stands) requires some compromises and this is just one of the many, many issues that could matter.

    And if it really annoys you: in general guys have more body hair, so ask him to shave certain areas too, if he thinks it's important?

  • take a stand on body hair

    OMG, this is too funny! To all you hair-loving guys and feminists-refusing-to-be-cowed-by-social pressure... think for a minute. WHAT IF WE WERE TALKING ABOUT FACIAL HAIR? Would your answers be the same? Ha ha ha. I can just imagine how many guys would say they like the "natural look" - lol. And all the girls who would say how "disgusting" they feel because their faces look as hairless as when they were eleven. Ha, ha, ha.

    I went out with a girl who had facial hair once. ONCE. Personally, I believe the only place a woman should have hair is on her scalp although I consider the Brazilian look hot, too. I like a slick pussy.

    But seriously, I don't believe this is about ids or egos or players or social pressure or porn or feminism. I believe it's about personal choice. So if you want to have a hairy vagina - go ahead - but ask yourself why you don't have a hairy face too.

  • what can we ask for in a relationship

    Since I first read this letter I've been thinking about it. My first reaction, I would be so happy to be nake with a woman I could care less if she shaved or didn't! My second thought is the men had no right to ask that of her. It seemed to me at first glance there are things that are out of bounds to ask for. And this would be one of them. So are there acts or behavior that one cannot ask of another. Then on futher review, perhaps the asking is alright, if the person has the right to say no and isn't punished for saying no. For example I can ask her not to kept in contact with her men friends and if she saids no then the relationship is over. But if I allow her to say no and she is not punished for saying no perhaps the very act of asking for something will bring a greater intamcy to our relationship. I think there are acts or things you can not ask someone else to do, even in a marriage type relatiosnship. But if you do ask I think the other person has the right to say no and not be punished for it. I hope I made some sense here. By the way I like the full bush!
