What is your opinion on hair around the nether regions?

The current trend seems to be to at least to "tidy" it, to allow swimsuits to be worn without "escapees".

Whilst I can see the comfort and desirability of smoothness that comes with the totally hairless option, does anyone think it a bit odd on a fully grown woman?

I've lasered the hair into a neat state, and am wondering about whether to leave the remaining bit, or to zap it all off.


This might sound a bit odd, but a strange plus point for total hairlessness is that it might come in handy in old age, if I am ever in the state where I need help cleaning myself! Or is that too odd? Or does anyone with care experience think that it makes no difference?

    Really? I thought that one negative of becoming an older lady getting chin hairs, etc. I didn't realise that there was an opposite thing happening below the neck!

    Lasered? I didnt know you could have that done in that area, how long did that take and cost? did it hurt?

    My opinion is hollywood is best but I used to feel that it was odd for a grown woman to have nothing there at all however I gave it a go and woudnt go back now so many people do it male and female no one thinks anything of it, you just get used to it.
    Thank you for this site Martin

    I think a lot depends on your age... I expect those supporting the 'all off' are a bit younger than me! I go 'dorito' if you know what I mean!

    I read somewhere that men under the age of 20 are shocked to find that women actually have hair down there... with the prevalence of on line !!!!!! they think that the all off look is normal. Eekk! Good job mu dating days are over....

    I think you may well be right. It would never occur to me to get rid of my hair, I will tidy up there if swimming for instance.

    I do actually wonder why young men prefer women to look pre-pubescent.

    What is 'dorito'?
