Hair's there for a reason. I shave some to increase sensation, but not all. Anyway, what's attractive about looking like a 7-year-old down there?

#224 YLIF hahahahaha :D ah and totally shaved sucks, a little bush is sweet.

organised chaos: if health issues were your number one priority you wouldn't be promoting shaving for women OR for men (trimming maybe, shaving no). And I don't think that you understood judgeymcjudge's post at all.

Wow, you know, shaving down there can be uncomfortable, like nicks and cuts but ALSO the stubble itches and can even be painful as it grows back out, not to mention ingrown hairs and stuff. I'm all for landscaping, but not clear-cutting. And you're seriously self-absorbed to think your preference merits dealing with all that more than a professional visit with a doctor does. In case you missed it, she probably pulled away from you because she was already feeling self-concious about the gyno, which is probably also why she shaved. You're only making her feel like her body is more embarrassing, you jackass.

I bet it has nothing to do with gyno...

call off the wedding, find a new one :D

#231 Organisedchaos *sighs and wonders if you actually READ my comment* First of all, a gyno is not really a "routine check up", as I explained. And, like I explained, if she was shaving for a gyno, chances are it was her first time and she thought she had to, not knowing any better. People do all kinds of "unbearable" things for medical stuff - medical stuff is about the only thing that ever motivates people to do things that are otherwise "unbearable"! And so it should be! No one should have to do something they deem unbearable unless something hugely important hangs on it. There is a significant difference between doing something totally out of your comfort zone that you would never normally do otherwise for medical purposes, and doing something totally out of your comfort zone "once in a while" for someone else's pleasure. Depending on the level of discomfort, they are ballparks apart. One of those major differences being health = more important by far. *actually made a point of asking around* All right. From what I can gather, most people I've spoken to disagree with you on one key point. The problem with you saying "once in a while" is that the shitty parts of shaving hang around for WEEKS after the initial shave. By my math, I'd say a few weeks every "once in a while" adds up to a couple of months of discomfort. Worth it? Most likely not. I would also venture to guess, being that I am not in this situation myself, that most girls who hate shaving wouldn't want to shave "once in a while" for their partner lest their partner get into the habit of wanting it more and more. That is just a guess on my part, though. Anyway, so not the point. The point I was trying to make and you seem to have missed (though, to be fair, I don't think I made it clear enough) it that if she only shaved for her gyno, it's OBVIOUSLY a big deal to her, because if it wasn't a big deal, why wouldn't she do it? This post easily makes it sound like she'd never done it before, which to me implies she's pretty firmly against it. You have automatically condemned her as being selfish; I disagree and am thinking (given so many responses on here and the people I have talked to on the topic) that she obviously takes issue with it and only did it this one time because she thought she had to for the gyno, which then leads me to think it would be her first gyno appt because otherwise, she'd know not to bother - also, point of interest, girls I've spoken to said they freaked out on their first gyno visit, so if that's the case, then I don't blame her for being a little "stupid". ... This could all be totally cleared up if the OP gave us a few more details.

That is dumb she does not need to be shaved for a gyno.

well do you "clean up" for her? if the answer is no, there's your problem.

Man, somebody opened up a can of worms... I wonder if worms shave down there... What if you have worms, and they don't shave, but you do... are you still considered unshaven?
