Is being pubicly clean shaven due to men desiring young women?

[MatureDJ]

Yet another article from The Atlantic got me thinking ...

http://www.theatlantic.com/health/a...as-pubic-hair-in-america-gone-extinct/249798/

It seems that most women these days shave down there. (Certainly in my recent experience, it's been quite bald down there.) The author throws out a bunch of theories, but the one about being a way to show youth seems to be most in line with evolutionary biology - and hence most believable - and therefore the ultimate source of the other reasons.

comes from porn, IMHO. I can't stand women who aren't bare down there. In porn you don't have the feeling, you have the vision. You want to see what's going on, and when there's a huge bush down there you can't.

Also, I believe, comes from the fact that oral sex is a lot more common than it used to be.

But on the whole (no pun intended) I don't know why the big change in pubic hair over the last decade or so. It's good though, it just looks..... cleaner... with everything shaved -- or better yet waxed -- down there.

Back in '08 I dumped a girl who had a smoking body but was totally, and I mean totally unshaven, for that very reason.

also if you got a woman that works out and stuff, that **** can get musty as hell if she's got a lot of pubic haikr. my wife and i have "the backbreaker oral sex treaty". if you want me to go down, which I don't mind doing, i better not see a spec of hair. hair= i'm out.

I do not do pubic h air at all. it's just freaking gross. no one wants to be all in there and hairs and **** in your mouth. then your nose is right on the damn hair lol, fvck that man.

It's funny, I can remember a time in the early 90s when getting your GF to shave her snatch clean was scandalous. It seemed to imply that a guy's real desire was to bang prepubescent girls. Shaved pubes was 'niche porn' back then and you'd have to actually seek it out in the print and VHS days. Now it's just incidental, and hairy bushes are the niche.

I also remember seeing strippers with navel piercings and thinking "goddam that is hot!" Then I started seeing hot 'normal' girls doing it, but there was this initial stigma that only sluts, porn stars and strippers got their belly buttons pierced so it was slow to catch on at first – which of course made it all the more hotter when you got with a girl who had one.

Same thing with tramp stamp tattoos. Initially hot, now, no big deal. I think maybe nipple piercings might be the next thing, but it's not like average girls go about getting them and showing them off as readily as other "slutty" fashion statements.

Over the years, there's been very little discussion about female pubic hair on these forums. This needs to change.

comes from porn

Porn is influential rends for female pubic hair. I gave up porn and fapping in the 2010s.

It was around the late 1990s when I was in junior high and early years of high school that porn stars started moving from trimmed pubic hair to fully shaved pubic hair. I remember getting to college in 2001 and there was high speed internet in dorms and it became easy to find your way into free porn.

Around the time I was in college (2001-2005), this is when the trends of late 1990s porn stars started making their way into the college women of that era. There were more fully shaved pubic areas in this time and in most of the 2000s.

In the 2000s and 2010s, almost all younger women thought a fully shaved pubic area look sexier and that's why they all did. While porn was influential in it, there were female centric media publications like Cosmopolitan discussing it and the Sex & the City women discussed it too.

Back in '08 I dumped a girl who had a smoking body but was totally, and I mean totally unshaven, for that very reason.

That was rare even in 2008. Most hot women under 30 from 2000-2015 were at least trimmed. Majority were fully shaven.

In the last 7-10 years or so, I have noticed women 30+ who were formerly fulled shaved moving towards having some pubic hair. These are not full, unshaven bushes but rather neatly trimmed pubic areas or narrow landing strips.

In 2020-2021, there were a lot of breakups, divorces, and waxing studios closed or restricted so many women experimented with having pubic hair and I think some have kept it going. Also, with less approaching due to indoor masking and less venues for hosting dates, shaving or waxing became less of a priority for some. However, some still needed to shave to impress thirsty guys on Instagram or OnlyFans.

You guys took me back to the 90's "landing strip" .

Its just whatever is in style.

I agree and think it's a porn thing. I've only been "clean shaved" a couple times in my life and I never liked it. As soon as those hairs starts growing back it's itchy AF. I keep it nicely trimmed, and after talking to several women on the subject this is what they prefer. I've literally had women tell me that a bald penis and balls makes them feel like they're "****ing a little boy". A little bit a hair reminds them that you're still a grown ass man. I keep my balls shaved clean and keep a little bit of hair at the top. I think this is the preferred look.

same time I was in college.... whale tails...belly button rings...bald Eagle and some girls started getting the tongue rings back then!

Never seen a girl that didnt shave in the last 20 years.

The only exception was a girl in her late 20s with the short landing strip.

Even the virgin girls in their late 10s I met were already clean shaven already in the 00s.

Me personally I trim it very short but never shave, I dont think the baby looks work on me...

I had a nice post about being trustworthy and not looking like a caveman all written up in my mind.
