Shaving Body Hair: It's Not Just For The Gay Guys...

In my line of work, body hair is something that I unfortunately have to be up close and personal with on a regular basis. Some of my clients fall into the well-groomed category, while others opt to shave their twig and two berries completely bald. While i don't demand such behavior, IT IS CERTAINLY APPRECIATED. But before I go into my discussion of body hair, check out this link:

Reasons To Shave or Trim Your Body Hair

I thought that link was a great way for you men out there to have some concrete reasons as to why it's a good idea to tame the forest that your body has become over the years. You might think that we women don't think it's a big deal that you have more hair on the backs of your shoulders than on your head, but it IS. We are just polite and usually just go along with it for whatever reason. I hear all sorts of reasons as to why my clients won't at least TRIM the crop around their genitals, but I have come to the conclusion that they are all just LAME excuses. I shall address them below:

1. My wife would be suspicious if I suddenly trimmed/shaved my genitals.

Are you serious? What if you were to trim up and then came to bed one night and told her that you thought it high time you tamed your genital mane and wanted her opinion. At THAT point if she were to laugh, point, and giggle, well then we could agree that maybe it was a bad idea. It also might be that the abundance of pubic hair had been hiding the true size of your penis, and she's only now seeing it for what it is. On the other hand, trimming or shaving might also give you some added optical length. It's certainly worth a try...I just don't buy that wives would be adverse to genital grooming. If you think taking yourself in such a manner is going to be a red flag to your extracurricular activities, then she is ALREADY suspicious of you and you're going to get found out eventually anyway. Tell her you're doing it for her and be done with it for goodness sake!

2. It's too difficult. I might cut something!

So we women are supposed to do incredibly detailed and complicated grooming for YOU guys, but you can't, in turn, even trim up your ball sac a bit? Has it ever occurred to you that maybe your wife/girlfriend doesn't give you oral sex like she used to because THERE IS A JUNGLE DOWN THERE? Do you have any idea how gross grey pubic hair looks? I won't even begin to describe it for you, but if your reaction was a cringe, then you might want to start removing yours BEFORE it gets to that color.

Shaving or trimming is just like anything else in this world: you need to learn how to do it properly. If you're really so uncoordinated that you can't seem to figure out how to do it without injuring yourself, then once again, turn to your significant other. Ask HER to help. I'm sure you guys reading this have all had the collective reaction of, "I would NEVER trust my wife/girlfriend with a razor around my nads!" So she can bear your children, drive your car, cook you dinner, etc. but you can't trust her with a sharp object around your genitals? That doesn't seem like much of a relationship to me. Are you that much of a jerk that you think all of your past behavior is going to come flooding to the front of her brain once the Gillette is in hand? Trust me guys: we have far more subtle ways of hurting you than doing something direct like cutting your testicular region with a safety razor. Cuts heals--wounds on the psyche can last forever, he he.

3. But it itches too much during the regrowth period!

Oh come on ya big baby! Once again, it's fine for us but not for you? Ok then, don't shave, but AT LEAST TRIM!!! Pubic hair or underarm hair does not need to be two inches in length. Really. It doesn't. Trim it up to a manageable length. I am willing to bed that your wife/girlfriend might not even notice if you did that--for those of you wondering about discretion.

As someone who handles testicles and penises in my hands on a regular basis (no, not like that--for painful purposes only), I can speak for the difference that body hair makes. If you don't enjoy your pubic hair getting caught in the various pieces of equipment that I use on you, THEN TRIM IT. It's really that simple. I put up with pubic hair, but frankly I'd rather see as little of it as possible on either sex. I'm not advocating complete baldness as little boys and girls don't really turn me on, but let's get the hair away from where all the action is going to be taking place. Shall we?

If you're reading this blog entry and wondering if it was meant for you, it probably is. The mere fact that it has made you feel self conscious says that this should be a call to action.

Now go get those trimmers!
