    Hey hey,

    Just wondering from a womans perspective if you would like a man who shaves his pubic region.

    I know a lot of men find it attractive if a woman is shaven but how about the opposite way around too? :cool::cool:

    I just thought i'd throw this in . most men shave the lower parts and i can't see anything wrong with it. most women would rather a guy trimmed below thats already a fact. neater and cleaner nothing wrong with that as far as i can see. oh and i am a man on the womens forum lol but there ye go.

    Thank you.

    Erm, there are men who shave down there who aren't porn stars?

    Trim, yes. But shave? As in a mach 3?


  • Registered Users Posts: 271 ✭✭scorpioishere


    Men who shave down below are definetely gay
    For me trimming is better than shaving.

    Well electric razor even jus so all is gone.. I know loads of lads that do it.... And I just want to know if women go for that look???

    Is that so?

    So you've shaved then? Are you gay?

    I definitely agree with trimmed and neat, but not shaved. Shaved would really turn me off a guy. Not just the look of it, but I would take it as an indicator that he's one of those guys who takes porn as a guide to what normal is. The kind of guy who expects every girl to have a perfect hollywood all year round.
    OP, you say you've a girlfriend, maybe you haven't been together long, but is it not the kinda thing you could just run by her?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,766 ✭✭✭squeakyduck


    You don't want a jungle down there. Keep it tidy. It's nice and neat that way. ;)

    you should make this public knowledge, we can round up all the gheys then based on their pubic tidyness.

    some women like trimmed, some like shaved, I've done both, my ex loved it when I was shaved, but since I have nobody to impress at the mo I just trim lol


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,206 ✭✭✭✭amiable


    I'm sorry i don't know any man who does it. I'd believe it to be in the minority. I'm sure it happens just not as often as some people have made out on here.

    How do you know exactly? I cant imagine why people DONT do it, its just manky to leave it unkempt. doesnt need to be all gone but if theres a jungle of hair down there= instant turnoff for me.

    Because i play a team sport regularly and shower afterwards. I don't do it cos i've never felt the need to as i shower every day

    Trimming it is okay, but a big NO to shaving it off. Gross, ugh.
    I like hairy men. :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,944 ✭✭✭✭Links234


    I don't see the problem if they do like their bits shaved?

    different strokes for different folks, although in my experience trimming leads to more stroking.

    bah dum tsh! :pac:

    If a guy shaves his "bits" and is happy, that's great. Good for him. It's not my thing though, such a turn off. I find it repulsive.

    Yeah.. the only people I've ever heard say they like men shaved are.. men. :pac: Think it's because they think it makes them look bigger.

    These threads always end up with an overwhelming majority of females saying they prefer men trimmed but shaving is a no-no.

    I hate it. Looks so wrong. Trimmed, fine. Shaved? Yiiiiick. *shudder* Took me AGES to get my Lithuanian ex to stop shaving down there. I'm not looking forward to mainland European men, from what I've heard it's more likely you'll find a guy as bare as a baby down there than one with hair :(

    Gutted.

    Why do you need other peoples opinions?
    Why don't you just ask your girlfriend?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,954 ✭✭✭✭Larianne


    Personally, I don't like it all gone. Last time I was met with that it totally freaked me out if I'm honest!

    Trimmed. Nice and neat is perfect.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,944 ✭✭✭✭Links234


    I don't really get it, though I suppose because I'm not into guys anyway, so I probably wouldn't. but I've been with girls who've shaved down there and girls who've not shaved, and it's not really that big a difference, so I don't really get the reactions in this thread? like, it's just a bit of hair/lack of hair, what's to be so freaked out about?

    I dont either, all gone or neat on a girl I dont have a preference either way, as long as you're not hacking it apart with a machete to get to the goods then its grand.

    You'd think by now we'd have evolved to not be as a hairy down there since its no longer a necessity, we have clothes to keep us warm :)

    genital hair is not just about keeping warm. it serves other purposes too

    well yeah but like you said as long as you shower every day its kinda unnecessary, its bad points outweigh its good for me to warrant keeping it au natural, so off it goes :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,900 ✭✭✭rannerap


    Really really dislike shaved, I dont even really like trimming, I'd rather it was the way it was supposed to be :(

    A trim is fine but I wouldn't want him to go as far as complete bare, as long as it's clean I don't mind what he does (Although I do prefer the natural look) :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,150 ✭✭✭✭Malari


    I wouldn't like a clean shave, it would be a bit odd I think :( But I don't like hairlessness in general. I like my men to have a little on the chest and a fair bit on the head ;) My boyfriend trims sometimes. I'm sure it's more for his own amusement/boredom than for me! :D

    I have never personally heard of anyone who does this - no exes or anything. My boyfriend is involved in sport and I'm sure I would have heard if he'd seen a "shaver" in the showers after!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 250 ✭✭Delicate_Dlite


    I prefer trimmed, but shaved..meh no biggie. :rolleyes:

    I do know a few men who do shave/wax as they are trying to maximise themselves visually. :rolleyes:

    I have a personal prefrence for a happy trail, so I'd like it to be there and it may be weird if it just ended. So, yes.. trimmed would be my preferene.;)

    But hey, why not ask ur gf,? mention one of ur mate's gf asked him to do it,..what does she think?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,798 ✭✭✭speedboatchase


    This is always a weird topic on forums because people equate it to either an untamed ball of pubes or a giant weird forearm-looking completely shaved penis. THIS is how it's meant to be done:

    Balls - shaved
    Shaft - shaved
    Inside leg and area around treasure trail - shaved
    Bush - trimmed

    That's what I do (and not with a mach 3 for the love of god) and everything looks splendid :D

    Hmm. We'll be the judge of that. Pictures or get the fu*k out. :P :P


  • Registered Users Posts: 62 ✭✭wellsir


    married for 5 years...I have never shaved anywhere...but lately she has pointed out hairy back and that something will have to be done....
    have very sensitive skin (fair irish) so waxing doesn't appeal...so any suggestions welcome

    AH is ^^^ that way.

    Thanks,

  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 16,186 ✭✭✭✭Maple


    Trimmed, yes. Nothing worse than getting lost in a forest on your way to Pleasure Town.

    Shaved, no thank you. Looks wrong & feels wrong in my opinion and experience. My ex shaved himself once as an experiment, I was nearly set alight with the friction burns when we had sex a few days into the regrowth.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 593 ✭✭✭Rockery Woman


    No way!!! leave it hairy!!! men are supposed to be hairy, if they are not hairy they are like little boys eeekkkk!!!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 26 ATMW


    I have nothing against trimming, but the thiought of a shaved man really puts me off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,713 ✭✭✭✭Novella


    I prefer not shaved. Neat and tidy, yup, for definite but shaved? Nah. It just feels icky when it starts to grow back, and I don't particularly like how it looks either.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,228 ✭✭✭epgc3fyqirnbsx


    It's not a very attractive looking area at the best of times so ime it's best to jazz it up a bit, don't be afraid to tie a few plaits and bleach the tips, things like that
    A bit of bryll cream can never hurt either


  • Posts: 0 ✭✭✭ Louie Yummy Burger


    full afro only way to go !! that way you never have to look at it :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,404 ✭✭✭✭Pembily


    I think neat and trimmed, neat and tidy!!! ALl done is just odd to me as it looks like pre puberty!!!!
