I disagree with the person who started this thread.
Having ass hair is a f*ckin b!tch when you're done taking a nice long messy sh!t. You have to wipe like 7 times to completely clean the area when you have a lot of hair down there.
And of course you always seem to get sh!tloads of of toilet paper caught in your forest of pubes and sometimes it even itches around there when you walk because you didn't pull off enough dingleberries when you were done.
It makes you feel so friggin dirty, that sometimes you have to take another shower JUST SO YOU CAN PULL OUT ALL THOSE F*CKIN DINGLEBERRIES.
Now if you TRIM the hairs so that they are really short with clippers (DO NOT SHAVE BALD with a razor)..these annoying inconveniences go away for a few months, and all of a sudden it only takes 3 - 4 wipes to get everything clean just like it used to when you were 10 years old.
So definitely TRIM the area...maybe even with a mirror on the floor so you can measure the depth, but don't shave it bald.
