It always strikes me as odd when I talk to women friends who assume all men like a bare vagina. At the mention that some men either prefer hair down there or don’t care one way or the other, ladies respond “REALLY?” Uhh, yes. Different strokes for different folks.

Wasn’t it the norm to have a bush back in the days? Like, back in the 70s, 80s, and 90s? We know what people think are downsides – odor, hair in the teeth during cunnilingus (what side of the bed did I wake up on?), high costs, etc. And there are upsides. I guess one can appreciate the full beauty of the vulva sans hair? It feels less scratchy? My GYN doctor said waxing is somewhat healthy because it’s like exfoliating the skin – but he can’t understand why women (upwards of 80% of his patients) torture themselves like that. I almost added for the sake of pleasing men, but I don’t know that to be entirely true.

Bottom line, ladies. You might like shaving. Or waxing, or whatever, but don’t frown upon women who don’t. (And I know you don’t really care; I’m exaggerating because of the shocked responses I’ve gotten at the mention of different preferences.) My guess is that most men will enjoy it – bare, or with hair.

Do you agree or no? Have you had this conversation? If you’re reading this and you engage women as sexual partners, what do you think? Are bare vaginas more aesthetically pleasing? Have you pressured a woman to shave? Or to keep a natural bush?
