I am curious to know why?.
I have never been with a woman who has, what am I missing out on?.
 
For the hubby and I, it was something different and simple to do. Took only a small amount of time and we both enjoy how much more sensation we feel. He recently had to shave his testicles for a vasectomy and is considering keeping them that way for the same reason. :)

at first when i started shaving i felt really insecure and thought it looked so stupid, and bare, and completely unsexy. once i got used to it, i've never gone back. i love being hairless, as well as loving my man being hairless. it's a lot less of a hassle when it comes to that time of the month, it's a lot cleaner, a lot easier when being gone down on, and just all around more appealing to the eye.
 
..My s-o, does it because thats the way she knows I like it, or at least i reckon thats why she does it.... ;)
..I keep my balls shaved for her as well...
 
It's pure sensation for me. It's far, far more sensitive, I get a lot more wet, and I certainly appreciate my partner being neatly groomed for oral (I don't like the feeling of hair in my mouth at all, and getting strays in there is unpleasant), so I give them the same courtesy.

Completely bare isn't necessary for me, but I do like a combination of shaving and a neat trim on myself, other women and men at a minimum. Pubic hair style is a preference, not a dealbreaker, but I've never had a partner who didn't like less hair on themselves better due to the sensitivity factor.

ETA: My hubby also likes labia at least closely trimmed because he can see the goods better, and that's a turn-on for him.
 
The wifey keeps hers pretty trimmed. If I'm giving her oral pleasure I like it bald, but she doesn't like to keep it that way.

I keep my balls smooth for her though, as she likes it that way and since she's the one that licks them 2-3 times a week I happen to think it's a good idea to keep them that way!

The obvious line here is because I hate flossing while eating ... but I'm not going for the obvious on this one.

For me, I think that part of a woman is simply stunning, and any hair at all down there just junks it up. On top of that, having that area completely smooth during intimacy is more often than not much more pleasurable to the touch than pubic hair is capable of being.

But really, in the end, until you've experienced it for yourself, you just won't know.

:cool:
 
I shaved for my ex because he said he'd prefer it... while he didn't specifically request it, i did it to please him, and he loved it. i loved it too... i haven't shaved in a few months and the sensations are definitely different. shaving between my legs at least gives a lot more feeling, and a lot more of a slicker sensation. if i ever feel sexy again and want to spend more than five minutes shaving i'll do it... but while i'm lazy i'll leave it as is.
 
I don't know why, but I wish they would stop. It isn't exactly a dealbreaker, shit, I'm not about to turn down sex any time soon but I like seeing a nice full bush, it's womanly.

FYI, it doesn't bother me at all when I'm chowing down. I spend a great deal of time down there and it hasn't ever got in the way.

I did not begin shaving until after my first child was born. In the delivery room they shaved me...their reason was because bacteria is harbored on the hair and when a child passes through the vaginal canal...it is exposed to bacteria....made sense to me.....
I liked how clean it felt.....so I kept it shaved......

It is more delightful for my partner to go down on me with a shaven pussy.....not that i was so hairy it was nasty...but none the less.....it is nicer
 
i like to see what i'm doing so i prefer it when the mrs trims. i don't like it shaved b/c that just looks too young to be sexy to me. and i like to give her the same courtesy.

besides, it's definitely more sensitive this way. :>

I shaved for an ex, and now I wax because growing it in is uncomfortable, and not being smooth makes me feel dirty. Ew.

I started shaving out of curiosity--saw it in porn, heard all the blather about it and subsequently feared having a guy get hair in his teeth--God forbid!

Then once I got over how odd it looked and actually felt myself up, I saw the good in it: smooth, soft skin feels lovely, the juices ooze out everywhere and make a bitchin' slapping sound while you're fucking, and a mouth feels awful nice on my naked labia.

However, I won't forsake hair completely for that. I still love the eroticism I find in running my fingers through the it--the tickling and teasing--and I like the way my trimmed bush looks, which has nothing to do with feeling womanly or otherwise. It's simply my hair.

Right on. I've yet to get any complaints. Besides, aren't there techniques for keeping it out of way if it's really all that troublesome?

cuz it just plain feels good...
 
I did it first as a sexy surprise. Discovered I liked it very much. It feels so smooth and sexy to me. I had to keep it.

Fury :rose:
 
It increases sensation a great deal down there and I love the baby-soft feel. It's amazing how soft that skin is, you wouldn't believe it. I love going bare!
 
I like all the ways, from smooth and bare to natural, and all the areas in between. Each has something going for it. I usually go bare in the summertime, bathing suit season, you know, and smooth is nice. Much more sensation at first, but keeping it bare is a bitch. Sometimes I like it natural (not overly hairy, even in natural state) and it gives a nice bit of punishment to have it pulled. Sometimes, though, just a trimmed state is nice, too. I like my hubby manly and hairy, though. I like the musk smell that clings to him when he is aroused. I like my girlfriend in either a natural condition or trimmed most of all, though bare is nice too. I like inflicting a little punishment by pulling and she is more on edge when she is sporting a bush down there, she likes being bare, and only grows it in for me. Hairy, bare, or barely there, it's all good!
 
I trimmed it for many years.

Initially it was because stretch marks during pregnancy damaged the hair follicles and I was embarrassed that the hair grew straight.

Once trimmed I discovered I preferred it from a hygiene point of view.

Then I met a man who said he like shaved. I had never considered it before always equating it with young girls. Anyway I tried it and discovered that the sensations were very strange. It took a while to get used to. At first, the slightest touch caused an orgasm...pantie material brushing against it, peeing, all kinds of unexpected things.
Once that calmed down the sensations during sex made cumming from penetrative sex more intense.

That was over 15 years ago and have shaved up until recently.

Few weeks ago I finally had the courage to wax. I wish I had not waited so long. I really liked the pain element and as for the instant smoothness without the nasty prickly grow back it is all great.

What you are missing: I have been told by men they prefer the view without hair. Other than that I guess you need a man or a bi woman to explain.
 
Shave

Well....
As most have said, it's tidier and the sensations are better - at least for me....it's so much easier when it's nice and tidy (for me and hubby)! Although I have yet to go "bald". That all being said, I HATE the ingrowns from shaving and tried a multitude of things to diminish it, but nothing seemed to work! I've recently tried waxing and the regrowth has been oh so much easier!!!

Hubby and and I've now decided we're gonna do the waxing ourselves (it will save a bunch on cost), plus give us a ton of fun (although I still need to go to the store and get some muslim)!!!
 
i shave mine because i like the sensations during sex, and it makes me feel SO much more clean without all the hair there. PLUS my Man likes it that way too.
 
I just plain prefer it to be bare than have hair. Though I also prefer to wax than shave, as it doesn't itch as much an generally looks better.

Good luck with that, and be sure you ask for musliN at the store to avoid funny looks. ;)
 
Thanks, Erica. I couldn't think of a polite way to correct the poster. It brought a smile to my face, though.
