[…] As to your question about shaving, some husbands have preferences, but I’d be willing to bet my car that your guy will be happy with however you show up. If you are used to shaving or waxing, go right ahead. If it would be your first time, you may want to gather some information about that procedure to make sure you won’t be dealing with discomfort in that area on your wedding night or honeymoon (since some women are particularly sensitive and could have a skin reaction). I discuss this a bit in my post on Trimming the Hedges. […]

[…] wives (and husbands) swear by shaving or waxing that area to increase sensation and arousal (see Trimming the Hedges); some wives are not comfortable with that. Also, you might want to take a bath or shower […]

I haven’t read all the comments, so I don’t know if anybody else mentioned it, but if you apply coconut oil right after shaving, and every morning after you shower while shaved, then you don’t get a rash or bumps. And a plus is it keeps your skin there nice and soft. I shave every few months or so (when I feel like going through the long ordeal of doing so) and my husband loves it. He also shaves occasionally if I ask him, and that’s also something fun for me. 🙂

I have been researching this topic. On my wedding night it was one of the first things my husband asked for. He wanted me to shave it all off! He even volunteered to do it. Being a naive innocent virgin that idea freaked me out but reading on here it sounds like I might need to let him. I suffer with the bumps and rash after shaving but I can’t even fathom someone waxing down there… Eek!! I have been searching the internet for ways to shave that will prevent those nasty ingrown hairs. I ordered a product just this week that had some good reviews. I will have to let you know how it works. It is called Flawless by Whish. I bought the whole shaving kit for $50 that includes the no ingrown hair product. I also have read that non perfumed dove deodorant, aloe Vera, witch hazel, or preparation H work as well!! I made a comment to my hubby that if God didn’t want us to have hair there he wouldn’t have made it so. His response so stop shaving your legs and armpit hair!! Touché!!

I’m of the opinion that the hair down there is there for a REASON….I dispise the feeling of no hair down there, and find that I’m much “leakier” when there’s no hair to help keep the juices in….ok. enough.

My wife (of 36 years) and I decided to try it about 2 years ago. We both love it, we shave each other about once a month. Have found “Coochy” Shaving cream by Pure Romance (google it) to be the best, and no razor bumps!!!! We shave as a time of forplay which leads to an aweome encounter. Thanks for the discussion.

I have waxed and I love it as does my husband. But like most have already said waxing is painful and not cheap. I recently discovered Veet. I didn’t read all the comments, so not sure if anyone mentioned it or not. I love it. I thought for sure I was going to fry myself, but it doesn’t even leave a rash or anything. I would never, ever shave. That’s just miserable. I guess I should say I would never shave bare, but I would shave to clean up. I like it personally because it feels cleaner and my husband loves it. LOVES IT!!!!

I’ve been waxing forever. I started out going to get waxed just for my eyebrows, and my lip hair (so gross and annoying!) I eventually decided to try getting waxed “down there.” It didn’t hurt me at all. Getting my lips waxed hurt more than anything else! I now do my own eyebrows and lips, but go in for my legs and area down there. My husband loves it, and I do too. I’m not as freaked out as “what will he think about all that hair down there?” We both love it, and I won’t ever stop. It grows back much finer and slower, so it beats shaving. I’ve actually saved money since I don’t have to buy so many new razors or razor attachments, or even shaving cream! It’s been great for us, but I definitely started for myself way before I was married. It doesn’t hurt at all for me. My shins hurt more than the area down there. I started out with just the bikini line and slowly worked my way inward (getting more taken off each time.)
I do recommend it to my friends who ask me about it. I also recommended it to my sisters before they got married, and they haven’t gone back either. Makes me feel so much better about wearing a swimsuit too.

In reply to Anonymous. Not being a guy, I can't really argue with your statement that men want to see (and I guess hair gets in the way). However, I think some men are more aware of that option because of the prevalence of porn. And porn makers haven't always provided women with plucked privates. Still, I don't think men who prefer hairless are necessarily porn watchers; plenty aren't.

Frankly, I blame swimsuit makers as well. A lot of women I know have opted for shaving and waxing because of swimsuit styles.

In reply to Anonymous. I disagree that we men prefer hairless because of pornography. We prefer it for a very simple reason: we are visual creatures. We want to SEE. People who make porn are trying to give men what they want and they know, above all, that men want to see. So the women in porn shave because that's what sells porn. Couldn't be simpler.
