Male pubic grooming is a subject that doesn’t seem to get much attention. I see some references to manscaping but no real discussion of what it means for most men. Let’s face it, any sort of body hair attention is a fairly new idea. In the last century, body grooming had a sort of feminine air. Guys were supposed to be hairy. It didn’t occur to me until a girlfriend brought it to my attention in an unsubtle way.
Before I met this woman, I trimmed my pubic hair.I didn’t remove all that much but trimmed to about two inches. I thought it looked good. We had really good sex. I forgot about trimming my hair. After about a month, we were playing. She had me tied to the bed. She left the room and came back with a bowl of water, soap, and one of her razors. Without a word, she began shaving my pubic hair. I asked her to stop and explain what she was doing. She smiled and said, “Can’t you tell?” Then she explained that she didn’t like pubic hair. She said that when we met, I didn’t have much. She went on to explain that she never liked pubic hair. She had almost none. She didn’t have to shave.
I didn’t protest further. I wanted her to be attracted to me and I figured that she was the only one who would see me naked. It looked and felt odd, but she was happy. I got used to it and learned to like how I looked. I had absolutely no idea that there was such a thing as manscaping. After we broke up, I stayed hairless. Women I dated never commented on it. Most had full bushes of their own. I guess the times caught up with me. More and more men were hairless. When I checked out porn videos, no one had any pubic hair. How about that? I was a trendsetter.
Women have been removing body hair for a long time. I’ve never dated a woman who had hairy legs or pits. I’m all in favor of them removing the pubic hair too. Womanscaping is almost universally accepted. There is occasional controversy about shaving pubes, but I’ve never seen any serious discussion of hairy legs or pits.
Over the years, I decided to extend my manscaping. At this point, the only body hair I have is on my arms and legs. Mrs. Lion prefers hairy legs.. My chest, back, pits, pubes, and butt are all hairless. I like how I look. My chest is much better looking without the fur. It’s a choice that doesn’t suggest anything about my masculinity. I think that’s a good thing. Maybe we should write and read more about male body hair options. I wonder how women feel about it. Mrs. Lion says she is neutral on the subject, but clearly likes my hairless pubes.
[Mrs. Lion — For the record, I don’t care about body hair, except when guys are really hairy. I don’t like when a guy looks like he’s wearing a sweater when he’s naked. Lion’s pubic hair tickles my nose when it gets to a certain length and I tease him about it, but it wouldn’t matter if it was always there. I got used to it not being there and I could get used to it being there. Lack of pubic hair makes wearing a cage and anal play a little easier, but manscaping is mostly for Lion.]
One reason I like shaved or trimmed pubes is it indicates that person has an interest in those regions of their body. A woman who shaves her pussy is likely doing so for sexual reasons so I think it is sexier than a thick bush. My wife has thicker pubic hair than mine, she tends to keep the labia trimmed so I can find my way in!
I am naturally not too hairy and have none on my chest and back other than a few strays around my nipples. My pubic mound is thin and I like it clean shaved. My wife does not, so I get to shave it occasionally. I have kept my cock and balls and anus clean shaved for five years. My wife does like that.
A few years back she had cut my pubes off and then kept on going and trimmed my leg hair off. She had me go shave then. I loved it! Now she directs me to shave sometime each fall or winter then tells me when to let it start growing back for the summer. I just shaved my legs last week and took it upon myself to shave my underarms while I was at it. I love being hairless from the neck down.
I don’t think you can assume a woman shaves her pubes for sexual reasons alone. Many women want to wear skimpy bathing suits and don’t want stray hair poking out.
