What is the real reason we like for girls to shave down there?

Dancers in my club aren't allowed to show pubic hair so they all shave.

My civvie g/f doesn't shave as I like hair, but she has very thin, sparse hair to begin with so it's not an issue during sex. I like a well maintained bush. I'm not sure why.

Back before shaving was a near-universal thing, I had a g/f whose hair would chafe me during sex, so I asked her to shave it. It fixed the problem. I didn't have the issue with a different one during that period who scoffed at the idea of shaving. Not sure what the difference was... maybe the one whose hair chafed was trimmed and microscopically had square edges?

Afterwards, I found it made a woman look "more naked", like taking off vs. wearing panties. I can find a woman's bare neck to look incredibly hot, too, and can get into pixie cuts or other hairstyles that expose her neck. One had particularly dark arm hair and shaved that, which emphasized her skin.

The interesting thing to me the reports I have read from Korea about women getting pubic hair transplants, where 74% responded to a survey said they had gotten it done because of a “sense of inferiority to the same sex.”

I, too, grew up in the era of the untrimmed bush, but I was never a fan even in the 70s. I'm delighted that strippers shave "down there" nowadays and will only go down on a woman who has a landing strip or less.

Yep, all my formative years were spent with untrimmed bush. Never a fan, either, because who needs hair in their teeth, etc? So even trimmed was a huge bonus back then.

I think ppwh's observation that it makes a woman look "more naked" is brilliant, and whole-heartedly agree. I will tell you it works both ways -- sometime back my ATATF talked me into completely shaving bald down there, and I felt so absolutely completely naked, it really had a palpable psychological effect. Also couldn't believe how much bigger it made my cock look. But, overall I hated it (I got tons of irritation, maybe ingrown hairs?) in the days after I shaved, then it itched like fuck for at least a week as it grew back, so now it's a bird's nest down there again

This thread reminds me of something.

When I was in college, I had a girlfriend that was Syrian or Lebanese or something. Anyways, she had the roughest hair down there I have ever encountered! It literally hurt to fuck her. It was like fucking and S.O.S. soap pad. Her hair would leave scratch marks on me.

Wish I would have met her in these days now when women shave. She was a beautiful girl, but fucking her wasn’t pleasurable due to her pussy hair.

I think ppwh made a great comment - regarding it making a woman appear more naked. I didn’t think of that previously, but it makes sense. With an untrimmed bush, it still conceals her pussy.

I grew up in the 1970’s, and I didn’t mind the full bush. Somehow it felt natural - especially when fucking and feeling her hair sticking to me - and my hair sticking to her. Some women still did some woman-scaping - to trim their growth - and that was very nice too.

I have no issue with trimmed, totally shaven - or unshaven - as I enjoy all pussy. I’ve eaten so many bushes - I’m good at getting past the thicket - and getting to the good stuff. Shaven - or closely trimmed - makes it much more easily accessible - and it can also draw more attention to a set of gorgeously swollen pussy lips - so I really love it!

When I was younger - I always found Marilyn Chambers to be one of the most amazing porn stars - and she would be either trimmed or shaven - in many of her scenes. She was one of the few performers who would do that - back in that day.

I like seeing pussy, not hair. Of course if it's a topless only club, seeing a landing strip up above the bikini is like seeing her pubic area. Smooth feels better.

I like to look at pussy. The hair gets in the way.
I like to lick pussy. I dont enjoy hairs stuck in my throat.

give me neatly trimmed hair...... but she must mow the grass if you want me to play field.

I want to see and feel the beautiful pussy lips and clit and little pink hole. Landing strips or small top patches are hot, but a snatch that looks like the chick has Oprah in a leglock? No thanks.

I like em smooth - feels better, smells better.

I keep my pubic area mostly smooth, and trimmed short anywhere it's not smooth. Girls like it and I find it more comfortable for myself.

I also lived through the hairy 70s. I remember when Playboy first started showing pubes, to compete with Penthouse and Hustler. Some of those 70s playmates had jungles down there! I much prefer shaved or a landing strip. If I’m doing some SE in the club, I live that feeling when my fingers are sliding into her bikini bottom, and encounter some stubble or tightly trimmed hair. I like stroking those pubes as a preview to insertion!

bald is best.

I like to look at pussy and I like to eat pussy. I don’t want the pussy covered by hair.

I always requested my girlfriends shave down below starting in 1974 because the look turned me on. When they discovered the oral benefits they received when they shaved none ever minded shaving.

^ I didn't think he liked them once they got old enough to have something to shave.

I've never told them to shave, they just do it.

Given that we no longer live in trees, but instead wear clothes, the hair is unnecessary. Shaving is better for putting on a show, and better for DATY.

I saw my first shaved vagina in 1961 when I was at the ripe old age of 19. My 17 yo GF was a dancer (Ballet & chorus line) and she warned me on the way to the motel. Didn't see another one until strip clubs started going nude.

Once in my 20's I tried to get my then GF to go shaved. I let my beard grow for a month and when I kissed her, I told her that is how your pussy feels when I kiss it. She still didn't shave. It was worth a try. :)

I came of age in the 90's, so fully shaved was starting to become the norm in every porn. I'm sure that's part of why so many guys my age prefer it. Of course, my wife has only once done this in the past decade, despite my requests. And I just enjoy all the shaved ladies at the SC all the more for it.

If the pussy you are eating tastes like shit move you’re in the rong place.

I came of age just when shaving took off. One of my early gfs was put off when I asked her to trim. 5 years later on the dating scene I never met a full bush, and hair below the mons was rare.

You can see more and it's easier to go down on, and it's feminine.

Stubble is the problem that I'm seeing and feeling too much of lately. Stubble is a lot rougher than a full bush. I think the ones that I am seeing are not shaving more than once or twice a week.

it takes constant shaving...

@TiredTraveler>>Excellent topic.
Takes me down memory lane. I used to collect Hustler magazines in the early '80s and had many from the '70s, when almost every woman's pussy was hairy. I remember they had one spread titled something like "Grass Doesn't Grow on a Race Track," a pictoral of a blonde gal with a shaved pussy and some guy. I remember thinking how unusual her shaved snatch looked, but I liked it.
All the girls I dated in the '80s and into the early 90s had pubic hair. It was interesting to see the progression. I remember the first girl whose pussy I played with having a real hairy crotch and having to dig through a forest of pubes to get to her pussy lips. I didn't like it.
It seemed like every other girl I was with was progressively trimmed -- they seemed to get neater by the year.
I'll take a completely shaved pussy, no stubble, any day over the racing stripe look or a neatly trimmed triangle. I like seeing the lips stand out and the clean feel, especially when tonguing it.

BTW, regarding "what is the real reason" ... naked pussy is not a timeless style, nor is there any reason to think it will last forever, it's definitely a matter of social taste and statement. For example, back when the style was transitioning from full bush, there was a pretty good period where the majority of guys preferred tight trim, arrowhead or landing strip over bare naked pussy. If I remember right, the explanation was "totally nude makes her look too much like a little girl". We've gotten over that mental speedbump, but the point here is: just like tastes in clothes change, there's no reason to think taste in pussy hirsute-ness won't change. This isn't an innate preference, it's a learned one

I once asked a dancer (mid 20's but teeny tiny) that did not shave why she didn't and she said she wanted to look like she'd actually reached puberty.

I already own dental floss.
