What Do Guys Really Think About Hair Down There?

I know all about the dangers of waxing your nether-regions, but it never stops me from doing it. Shaving drives my sensitive skin up the wall, waxing lasts longer and I just like to do it.

I generally do it for me, but I guess I’ve been waxing for so long that now I get insecure if I’m with a guy and haven’t gotten things cleaned up down there. Which is weird because I’ll go forever without shaving my legs but will never miss a wax appointment.

There seems to be this huge stigma though that guys really care about hair down there. Some say they don’t care, some are vehemently against it. But even when a guy says it doesn’t bother them, we’re all super skeptical.

Well…

I inadvertently tested this idea recently. I’ve been really busy and haven’t had time to wax for a bit. I mean, it’s not like I have the Amazon growing down there or anything, but still. But I kind of forgot about it because my mind has been all over the place as of late.

So I when I ended up hooking up with a guy recently I remembered that I haven’t waxed in a while and freaked out in my head. Mid-makeout sesh when we were trying to decide if it was going any further, I casually mentioned that I hadn’t waxed and would rather wait until after.

He looked at me kind of puzzled, laughed, kissed me and said he really didn’t care. At all. Our hookup continued without a hitch, and it was great!

I’m sure there are some guys who prefer no hair but from what I understand, most guys are just happy to venture down yonder. It was really refreshing actually to hear a guy tell me that he didn’t care because I think it’s something that was subconsciously in my head.

If you don’t have time to wax or shave or whatever, don’t worry. Chances are he’s not going to mind.

Have you ever been in a situation like mine? Have you ever ended a hookup because you hadn’t waxed or shaved? Do you get insecure about it? Tell me in the comments!

    I have shaved it all off since it started growing. I just never liked the look and feel of pubic hair. It is also cleaner without hair. I also prefer a guy to shave it bare. I like to see everything he’s got, LOL.

    My boyfriend says he prefers me to be “cleaned up” but hes never really minded if i forget or something. He loves me for me, he doesn’t care what my body looks like; as long as I’m happy, healthy, and love him back! :D
    So just so long as you’re comfortable in your own skin. If you feel better or more confident by shaving or waxing, then do it! I don’t prefer to, but will occasionally do it for him. So I don’t mind to clean myself up periodically. (:

    I’m a guy and for sex its fine either way, but if you want me to go down on you, at least trim it, but shaved/waxed is preferred. If for what ever reason you don’t want me going down on you, then it doesn’t really matter. It is nice to look at when its shaved/waxed though.

    I’ve actually been told to grow mine out a bit. I know there are guys who prefer it shaved, but then again, i’ve been with guys who just didnt give a shit if it was shaved or not.

    To me, I don’t shave for the male population, I just shave for my own personal comfort and rason. There are times I’m just like “meh what ever” and let it grow and i’ll let it be, but I don’t go full amazon, cause I dont want to be Indiana Jones on it lol. I shave for my own personal reference, and I know how to take care of my skin when I do so my skin isn’t irritated.

    I’m the same view with guys, if you want to man-scape, you can go ahead and man-scape. If you want to be o’natural, go ahead and be my guest, I’m not going to care. Hair is hair, and we’ll be lucky to have it on us at least.

    I’ve had guys eat me when shaved or not shaved… They really don’t mind (at least the ones i’ve been with) they’re just happy to get a piece of it xD

    My fiance loves it when I shave…….he loves it when I don’t. Basically, he loves my body no matter what it looks like in my opinion bc he loves me. :-)

    im 18 and as long as ive been hooking up or having sex ive really only ever had one guy tell me he prefered me to be hairless.Yet that didnt stop him from having sex with me, it just stopped him from eating me out. when i first started recieving oral sex i NEVER shaved down there, and i was pretty “amazon-y” i guess :p but i didnt care, if you dont want to be that kind of intimate with me its okay “no hair off my skin” (; Even as i got older i never shaved, an just about every guy really Didnt Mind. I love it when guys dont shave, it makes me feel like im with a man, not a little boy :p I do shave now, not all the way just trimmed alot, but i’d still preffer to not do it. It’s just hair. its natrual and very empowering to have as a woman. Kind of like a “screw you” to the societal excpectations of women. (;

    I shave every time I take a shower so I’ve never had that issue. I just think body hair is gross in general (minus my arm hair because it’s so light colored and thin you can hardly even tell it’s there) so even having just a little stubble bothers me. I started shaving before my boyfriend and I ever did anything because I just automatically assumed all guys preferred it bare. Having hair down there always made me self-conscious anyway when I would wear bathing suits cuz I was always afraid of stray hairs so I after I shaved it all off I was basically like “wow, my life has been changed”. It just feels more clean in general to me.

    I think at the age of 24 I’m too old for this site, what brought me here I don’t know, but this is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever read. Ever.

    I am 21 and a virgin. I am allergic to metal and break out when I shave. Plus I feel like I don’t need to show such a private area to a stranger atleast until after I have given away my virginity. But a family friend has found out that I don’t shave down there and she makes such a big deal out of it.

    So I asked some of my guy friends and some say that they prefere girls to shave while others say it’s a turn off to have girls bald down there because it makes them feel like a pedophile.

    So I would say talk to your boyfriend about what he likes but most importantly you shouldn’t have to do anything you’re uncomfortable with just to please a guy.

    I am twenty two and I only shave once or twice every six months. I have never had a sexual partner complain, recoil, or show dislike for my hairy bits. I have even been with several men who thoroughly enjoyed caressing the hair because I condition it to keep it as soft as hair of course nature can be. I would shave more often if I had the time and my skin didn’t break out in a painful rash wherever I shaved; legs, armpits, or genitals! I’d rather keep the hair than deal with horrible razor burn that lasts for weeks.

    No shame!
