But its not gross, or un-hygenical if you don't shave, because women shower, don't they? But, just try what you would feel comfortable with. If you don't feel right shaving, then just try grooming it, or trimming it around the bikini line. Or just go o' natural.

I like to shave it off myself, as part of foreplay , esp if it's the girl's first time..... :) Sometimes it can be a stretch to postpone entering for as long as it takes to shave it off but that's part of the fun / excitement ...... When I do get inside the sensation is phenomenal...... and it definitely is hornier to rub my penis \ testicles against a freshly shaved pubic area ......

Let it grow, ladies, there are lots of us who adore your natural feminine gardens and would love nothing better than to get lost in your magnificent waves! It is sexy, lovely, beautiful, natural, feminine, and very attractive!!!

Keep it trimmed, and when you find a guy, maybe you can ask him if he prefers shaven or trimmed or whatever. maybe try shaving it once to see how you like it. if you do, awesome, if not, hey you gave it a try. And if the guy makes a big fuss out of it, YOU have the pussy, YOU make the rules lol.

For one you can't do a number of positions because the regrowing hairs hurt your penis when you thrust in and out.
And two, I don't find it attractive that my 16 year old girlfriend has the same looking vagina as an 10 year old.
Honestly it's up to your boyfriend, deff don't shave it just because of everyone else.

Personally, I do not think you should be concerned with shaving your 'area' for two reasons.
1) if you are not planning to be sexually active, nobody is going to see your crotch. So does it matter? I mean nobody is going to really see your area.
2) enjoy who you are as an individual, you don't have to worry about perfection in all areas. Don't grow up too fast, enjoy being a child! ;)
when the time does come then maybe you can consider shaving for sexual activities.

reader, anonymous, writes (29 April 2010): Let's decide on some things. First you obviously don't care whether or not you are shaved or you wouldn't be asking the Internet. So don't listen to the people who say do what you want because they don't understand that you aren't quite sure what you want. Secondly, I'm guessing you shave your legs and armpits as well as any other rogue hairs. Hair in the wrong places is disgusting. Wait until you have a boyfriend and get his preferance. I don't think that pubic hair is attractive. I suppose some people do, considerably in Asia where it is very popular, but in some places hair is frowned upon. Nor should you listen to the people who link shaving with pedophilia. A mature vagina and a childs vagina are very different, even when they both lack pubes, I doubt any of these people have children, or they wouldn't be answering online advise columns all day long. And so we know that men can prefer either, most don't mind and what ever you choose there is nothing wrong with it. So what the hell try shaven, trimmed or wild, as long as you aren't trying to impress anyone in particular what ever you choose will be fine. However you obviously care about others opinions, so please your boyfriend they way he would shave himself for you.

Interesting.As a female, I prefer to keep it trimmed when I am not in a relationship. Especially during my period, it can get really nasty if not trimmed! However, when I am in a relationship and being sexually active I like to be shaven. Why? Simply because it makes ME feel SEXY. Of course, I would love to save myself that sort of embarrassment of just about having sex for the first time with someone new and they are turned off by me not having of been shaved. Awkward!I think for hygiene purposes, it is good to keep it groomed, trimmed, and clean around the bikini line.Otherwise, do what is most comfortable for you.On that note, if you don't really care, ask your partner what they find attractive and do as such for them. Some like designs- which is kind of weird to me, but hey, people like what they like.

reader, anonymous, writes (6 April 2010): Ideas about this have certainly changed in the last 5 or 10 years! In my generation (and as far as I can tell, for hundreds of generations before mine), female pubic hair was considered highly erotic. For myself and the all the guys I grew up with in the 70's, there was nothing more sensuous than the thought of seeing and stroking that furry, pretty little thing. EVERY guy thought it was sexy -- the idea of a bald pussy seemed as weird and upsetting to us as a woman shaving her HEAD bald. Then suddenly everything changed, and since about 2005 or so, the majority opinion is that pubic hair is unkempt, ugly, nasty, dirty. Well, most guys my age think that's terribly sad. Maybe this "new look" comes from the fact that private parts are no longer private in the Internet age, and so they're now subject to the whims of the fashion police like everything else. The lesson women have always been taught is to be ashamed of their looks and to strive for somebody else's made-up ideal of beauty; and now that apparently includes their most intimate parts as well. Too bad.

Pubic hair is natural unless of course your more interested in little girls.
I notice that in your pic you have no hair on your chest....Ya trying to look young for the little girls?
If you had a job you wouldn't have time to shave all that hair.... because you would be too busy working like most men!
There is nothing wrong with a woman having pubic hair. It is a perfectly natural part of life.
If a man can't deal with pubic hair on a woman then he doesn't need a woman.

Now its a daily thing, it takes 1 min once you get he hang of it. I am not sure why some people are going on about the " it costs me a fortune in razors ". You can use a razor more than once you know (LOL). What about those long hairy legs? Do it in the shower with soapy water and you will not get a rash. PS: Also use cream afterward.

if you're brave, wax it, or get some hair removal cream.
if you don't want to take it off, that's fine, don't let a guy make you do something with it you don't want to - if he wants you to take it all off, tell him that he's gotta take all his off as well, and see how he reacts. :)
also, if you get really sick of all the hair, and you've money, then the permenant removal laser method is apparently EXCELLENT.

One of my biggest turn-ons, up there with a voluptuous figure, is a hairy bush. It isn't just the look, it is the feel - fantastic. How can anyone get a thrill from touching something that feels like the head of Right Said Fred? My biggest turn-off, is shaved pubic hair - it is gross and stomach churning. I am a man in my forties, and twenty odd years ago, this lunacy was totally unheard of. Maybe it is an age thing, but I am very suspicious of men who are turned on by shaved pubic hair, and at the risk of being controversial, there is something paedophilic about being turned on by a shaved bush. This nonsense that it is done for hygiene reasons, is an insult to the intelligence. If women shower or wash down below every day there isn't a problem. I hope this vile fad disappears for good.

May depend on how much it appeals to your partner, too -- if it gets you a fantastic response, that may make it worthwhile. Or not, I guess, depending on how you feel about your partner.

 Frankly, I think you should try shaving it all off and see how you find it. Personally I cannot fathom how other women manage to spend that amount of time shaving it every day to stop the stubble, plus putting up with rashes and cuts (it WILL happen) which feel and look vile. You however may prefer how it looks and be lucky enough to have oodles of time on your hands and to not get rashes. Give it a go.
And as to what men think - some men are mature enough to realise that it doesn't damn well matter. Trimmed is a good default if you're not sure, and convenient. If he cares about it too much, tell him you won't touch him unless you can shave a loveheart into his and dye it pink, cause that's what floats your boat.

Pubic hair is a major part of your sexuality. Why would any girl want to look less sexy. I think the guys that want it all shaved off are just thinking about being with a young girl that doesn't have any pubic hair yet. And besides that. Why spend all the extra time trying to look like something your not "all mature girls have pubic hair" when you don't have to. I think that maybe if girls want to shave their pubic hair that maybe guys should insist on girls shaving their forearms, any hair on their fingers, toes, eye brows, and head as well. After all, girls seem to like shaving,,,might as well make a day of it.... LOL

reader, anonymous, writes (16 October 2009): Some funny answers here. Saw a program recently about this.Real polls (not internet polls) show most men prefer completely bare - surprisingly even among older men. Young teens were more likely to prefer "hair there" - apparently because they had hair there and they want to be sure their partner was mature, but the rest, bare is best.(As for trimmed, landing strips or other design's being 'sexy', some liked it though most considered it just looked like a half finished job, either do it all or dont bother).As for 'God made us that way' - he also made hair grow on our head and om mens faces, most tend to cut it, shape it - apart from some with cultural reasons it comes down to personal choice. Very few people though, just let it go 'as God intended' (you would also have to include fingernails there) - so that's the death of that argument.As for hygene: there is no proven medical evidence that says it is better either way.As for shaving vs waxing vs removal creams: Shaving was most common. A new rapidly growing trend is permanent removal, laser/electrolysis. Those that did the permanent were happy they would never have to think about it again, and less than 1/4 percent had regrets. Again the age spread was very wide.A lot of people called the shaved look a fad, apparently historically the opposite is true, it's been more common to remove the hair then keep it.As for men removing their hair: well the number doing it is increasing, and from proper polls many more women preferred their men clean - it is predicted that will become real big. (Consider 30 or so years ago a 'real man had a hairy chest' - not any more.)At the end of the day though, it's personal choice.

I hate doing it because I find it itchy and annoying after the first day of shaving but all boys ive ever been with expect it and i think its more sexy to have it shaven ...but if you find a guy who doesnt mind you having it unshaven then consider yourself lucky! xxx

I think I've been conditioned that way because of my first long term relationship in high school. The girl I dated had never shaved and I became very attracted to that. Most of my friends don't like it though.

I think girls who dont shave and very sexy !!
Its natural and normal and shows me they are a woman
Also this business of shaving is cleaner if you wash properly how on earth can this not be clean!!
And like that other person a shaved area can be unattractive- and so if all women are going this way will be a very lonely guy

Just trim the bikini line. Your 18-21 so you grow pubic hair. Why try to make guys think you are too young to have pubic hair? Besides, pubic hair on a girl is very sexy. Just trim a little and you will never have any complaints.

Personally the only reason i shave anything is when im gonna put a bathing suite on, only because all the freakin suites dont allow any real coveraged down there. x/
But really, if a guys gonna have a cow over pubic hair, then you probably shouldnt even have sex with him. He'd better be freakin thankful that he's going to be with such a beautiful girl.
Plus, it really can make a girl look kinda slutty. the only girls i know that shave are those that get around. So personally i'd leave it. :]

What is wrong with being who and WHAT you are? Just because you shave all your pubic hair off doesn't make you a little girl again. WAKE UP! Just be yourself, naturally. Just be you. Don't try to look like someone you are not because a few imature guys say that you look too much like a mature woman. "They want you to look like a little girl" Maybe they are looking for little girls. Just be yourself.
...............................
A
reader, anonymous, writes (16 August 2009): Mature guys don't really care what you do. Do what you feel is right for you. Personally i prefer the natural look. Also girls are already expected to shave their legs and arm pits. I think it would be unfair to expect them to shave any more then that. I would rather a girl spend the extra time cuddling with me then shaving all her hair off.

A

Pubic hair is a part of your body. Would you shave your head and eye brows too if it became popular? I personally find it VERY unsexy for a woman to shave all her pubic hair off! It even says in the Bible... "A Woman's Hair Is Her Glory"
...............................
A
male
reader, anonymous, writes (24 July 2009): Ladies, understand that the fundamental reason so many young guys like it all shaved is because they have learnt it from porn. Unfortunate as it may be, this is the major part of most young men's sex education. Pubic shaving didn't become popular until the mid to late 90s, by when had lost it's "taboo" status in porn (take a look at any 80s playboy magazine and you'll never find a shaven woman). Add the internet revolution into the mix and it spread like wildfire and became the hip new sexual thing to do.During my travels and people I've met from around the world, it seems extensive body shaving is a predominantly American and Latino standard. It is also quite popular in upper class of middle eastern countries, but generally only expected on women. Europe is more liberal, followed by asian countries and then african / caribbean countries who often don't shave any part of their bodies. Notice the trend that the further you are away from the epicentre of porn culture and western standards, the more acceptance of body hair. (excluding the middle east!) Choose what you feel is right for you. Don't worry what other people think or are doing.It's your body and you need to learn to love it and accept it. But you should never feel dirty for being hairy, people that believe that are seriously misled. If that were the case all our ancestors would've had a lot of genital problems don't you think? It must stagger some people to consider how life used to be before porn showed us the way huh?

A
reader, anonymous, writes (5 July 2009): It's YOUR body, so do what you want. If you do some research though, you will find that there is actually a sanitary purpose pubic hair serves. That might be something to think about before you start shaving it all off. For that very reason i would suggest just trimming a bikini line and leave the rest for sanitary reasons.

A

reader, anonymous, writes (18 June 2009): Absolutely definitely SHAVED is BETTER! To all these young ladies saying "do not shave because nature meant you to be hairy": well there is precious little else that women leave to nature, from the colour of their scalp hair, to the whiteness and straightness of their teeth, to the enhanced colour of their cheeks and lips and eyelashes, to the depilation of unsightly armpit, upper lip, leg hair etc etc etc etc.Why on earth would you want to leave this most fundamental part of your anatomy looking unkempt, I completely fail to understand....
...............................
A
male
reader, anonymous, writes (14 June 2009): well, like everyone said..it matters...I personally like it trimmed...not a jungle...not a desert...a grassland...but dont woryy, ask your future partner if he likes it natural trimmed or shaved....and i dont like it completely shaved, only because it can be mistaken for crabs or a STD...because of the rash that you might have after you shave it all off... and if your going to shave it all off...make sure you take a long bath..not a shower before you shave it off, because the hair needs to be softer....then after you shaved it use lotion...for about 2 weeks....then you'll be fine

A
male
reader, anonymous, writes (13 June 2009): Personally, I prefer a girl with her genitalia shaved completely. Trimmed is nice too, or a 'landing strip'. I have met some women who look better with their pubic hair fully grown. I guess it really depends on how you feel, and how your partner feels.

Just because you women have seen it your whole lives doesn't mean we have. Trust me when a tell you that a "little girl" isn't even something that enters our brain. If you know of a man that thinks that call the police because he has a serious problem! As for the great hair or no hair debate, do what you feel is right for yourself. I don't know why people can't just be themselves instead of trying to be what they think someone else wants them to be.

So if guys don't like it they should just have to deal with it! Guys should think it is sexy on their girl! They should want a woman not a little kid that has no hair around their vagina! Hair around a girl's vagina is a good sign! Not a bad one!

Personally i think this new fad for shaving all your pubic hair is insane!
Why would a woman want to go go to all the extra work?
Why would a guy expect you to?
Why would a guy want his woman to look like a little girl?
Why would a guy not love you as your natural self and want to also save you the extra work?
What's next? Is your guy going to want you to shave your eye brows? Then shave your head?
Pubic hair is perfectly natural as a sign of womanhood.
People are CRAZY!

Dissenting opinion here -
I prefer a somewhat natural bush. Trimmed is fine. Completely shaved makes me think of plucked chickens, or that I'm with some prebuscent 13-year old rather than a mature woman.
My wife practices good personal hygene so that has never been an issue. She says that oral sex DOES feel different when she's shaved, but ordinary intercourse is the same.

It really depends on the guy. Almost no man likes it natural. A man at least likes it trimmed, however I see that you are 16-17 and I am 19 and it is a really big trend in our generations to shave it all of. A lot of men in our generation prefer that. I guess that when you meet the right guy and you know you are ready you will have to ask him.
