Today, I realized that it's become a regular occurrence for my mother and me to talk about our pubic hair. I don't know which is worse, the fact that I now know that she shaves it, or the fact that we even talk about this stuff. FML

I'm wondering how these conversations even start.

Maybe like: mum: how are your pubes honey? Op: fine what about yours?

talk about taking mother daughter bonding to the next level. I can just imaging a video promoting it. " tired of the same old boring bonding rountines ? why paint each others nails and participate in active outdoor outings when you can help shave each others pubes ?" (camera zooms in and out of children's faces as they jump around in excitement) lol I think I took it to far

How many new things are happening with your pubic hair that you can discuss it regularly?

65 stop with that goddamn argument. If a women prefers her area shaved bald, she should be able to without self-righteous twats like yourself shaming her body. If you seriously think a fully developed woman looks like a prepubescent girl just because she's missing some pubes, then you have a problem.

probably not if she's got bare floors, any color drapes match it.

Weather? Sports? Art? Politics? Celebrity gossip? Why don't you gals talk about those instead?

According to my boyfriend my friends and I sit around talking about our periods. I guess this is not too far off the mark.

#30, you are, you are not helping. Kittens? Gas prices? Restaurants? Home Decor? The next season of "Dancing with the Stars?" These people need our help -- they need non-genital topics to discuss!

#54, yes! And so is Valerie Harper, even though she is dying of brain cancer, . . . and Snooki!

I'm sorry to have disappointed you Perdix. I don't watch TV really anymore. I'm not relevant in that aspect unfortunately! But I watch 30 Rock on Netflix! Does that count?

#58, I'm not disappointed. Just as long as you can quote "Seinfeld" and "The Big Bang Theory," you're OK by me and don't need to watch TV besides that. :D

"No soup for you!" and "Bazinga!!" I used to watch Seinfeld with my mom all the time when I was a kid, and my boyfriend's parents have The Big Bang Theory on all the time whenever we're there, Sheldon's "Bazinga"is his mom's text alert sound! It's so funny. :)

It could be worse. You could have a mom that discusses nothing with you at all (like mine) and have to learn about everything on your own. Do you have any idea how crushed I was when I discovered that after my first period, it would become a regular occurrence? I learned this from watching an episode of Married with Children of all places. Learning about girl stuff on my own sucked. I'd rather have had a mom that shared a little too much than nothing at all.

Reminds me of when I first got mine. I had no idea what it was or why I was bleeding. I thought maybe I had sat on a razor blade or something. I was freaking out until google saved me haha.

I don't know how I knew what mine was the day I got mine. I think it was because all the girls in my class had theirs and I hadn't mine yet. So when I tols my mom she just went white and was like "oh". That was the extent of our period discussion. I hope to God if I have a daughter I will not be the same!

How does one bring that conversation up? "I took a shower today, and shaving my pubes was like really aggravating. Got any lotion?"

At least you're in a mother-daughter relationship! You're both girls, it shouldn't matter!
