    your mother won't like you posting this story :D:D:D

    but in answer to your question , yep i have

    won't go near that region now unless shaved or waxed and just out of the shower

    do you apply this standard to yourself? A lot of talk about women having to be hairless but not too many men waxing the sack & crack

    Would that be the preference?

    I'd be afraid it would look like "the last chicken in Sainsbury's", as Billy Connolly used to say. A good trim down is certainly in order these days it seems, which is perfectly fair when the norm for women is between a complete Right Said Fred and a Trump.

    Would only ever recommend a “trim” to be honest, D. Heard too many horror stories involving “wet shaving” the hole.

    As for the bag, I find the “tread” to be too deep to ever risk running a blade over it, waxing seems like a stretching nightmare and, I’m sure by now, we’ve all read the reviews of the hair “removal” creams.

    Best to use an electric “clippers” coupled with, both, a scissors and a steady hand.

    A liberal application of “talc” is essential once you’re done.

    The lack of shaving or waxing wouldn't bother me if it was kept trimmed but the box wash stuff should be used regularly.

    A comb over? :D

    I'd be a believer in minimal to no pubic hair. When you consider a warm, dark, moist place sandwiched between 2 waste disposal units is a fertile breeding ground for bacteria, and the abundance of sweat glands that produce sweat that contains oil in the area, it makes the area more appealing. Obviously, a thorough wash of the general area is required daily and after "receiving a visitor".

    For men I'd recommend a fairly short cut from an electric shaver/trimmer.

    No one wants to find themselves idly twirling curls around their finger in a post-orgasmic delirium.

    But you're better off having pubic hair if you want to avoid infection

    'it is not necessary to cut pubic hair. ... Pubic hair offer protection to your genitalia from infection and any friction. It is more hygienic not to remove pubic hair as women will end up getting cuts or ingrown hairs and will also develop hyperpigmentation and inflammation of the hair follicles.'

    You'd be surprised how well the purse shaves smooth despite the "tread".
    I'd never go back to a hairy bag.
    Just a regular twin blade and a bit of soap in the shower.
    Lovely:D

    I'll take my chances. I was once told that I looked "as if I had been cut by God's golden axe" so I like to display it in its full glory.

    The increased friction also allows increased sensation and I don't get ingrowing hairs.

    You're a better man than I am, Gunga Din.

    I’m no fan of the long “cellar spider leg” hairs on the old “nut purse” either. I’d get them with the trimmer, really wouldn’t have the nerve to go at it with a Bic razor.

    I'm with you there, Emmet. Would be afraid I'd end up with a ball dangling out of a freshly shaven hole. I've done the scissors trim alright and apparently it looks great to the female eye. The electric trimmer seems to be the job though, might give it a try in the future.

    They come with their own risks. A “nick” from the trimmer will hurt but won’t do as much damage as a sac cut from the scissors.

    The trimmer is great for getting the hair “level” right down, the scissors is better for the rest.

    I’d like to tell you that chicks “dig” the look but really I think they’re just thankful they won’t be pulling those, nasty, long ball pubes out of their teeth.

    Fine advice. Really, there should be a thread about the pros and cons of downstairs grooming. A bit like the etiquette thread but with a more palatable subject.

    I'd agree its more about the logistics of dealing with the hair than the look. That region was never built to win image awards.

    You ladies should make sure you get your manicures and facials too... why keep up the pretence? Must get exhausting! :p

    If any woman ever suggested I needed trimming downstairs, she'd be politely told where to go!

    I'm a man.. men are hairy. If you don't like it, go shack up with one of these skinny jeans wearing gentlemen above. I guess when you've got their b*lls in jar, they'll look nice and clean on the mantelpiece! :pac:

    In fact, I'm putting this down as a deal breaker... I reserve the right to be hairy! :D

    I've nicked myself with a trimmer, never a razor.
    I'm more scared of the trimmer for that reason.

    Bic? Geroutofda. Lidl's finest for my sack.

    Idea came from me, not the Mrs.
    Having said that, she loves the smooth sack.

    Dont fret, I still have pubes, just not on the jewel purse.

    Ungroomed bodyhair would be a dealbreaker for me, just not a fan of it on myself or on a man.
    Once he's neatly trimmed its all good, wouldn't be expecting him to get waxed or anything.
    I wouldn't be overly attracted to someone with a lot of chest/back hair either.

    I also think I must be the only woman on earth who doesn't like beards. I know they're super fashionable right now (and a lot of men look great with them) but anything beyond a bit of stubble would be too much for me. I can recognise that they look handsome on some men but I still wouldn't be attracted to them.

    Vagina dentata is, what I believe, the “infliction” is called. But I think it’s based on an urban myth.

    Although, your body can “grow” things like teeth, hair or, even, an eyeball in places they have no place being. Maybe that’s where it originated?
