Is it normal to shave your genetals?

I'm interested to find out how common it is with both sexes to shave their genatelia. I know a lot of younger women do. Older women? men? I started to shave some years back to keep from getting a rash while cycling, as per my Doc's advice. (Back in '87). Evedry woman I've ever been with has enjoyed it and being touched... omg VERY pleasureable. And I felt so much cleaner and cooler too!

    I am african American and if i shave, the hair bumps that appear make it look like I have VD SO i trim it with hair liners...VERY CAREFULLY. Same with the arm pitts. I mean, why in the hell would i want to harvest hair under there? Shaving it makes it look weird but the trim works just great. I HATE loads of extra body hair...it stinks.

        I DOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! LOLOLOL. Its nice. Any guy who does not do this choses to deal with that nasty sweaty nut smell unless they use spray's etc. Otherwise, they deal with the stink

      "it stinks" that's what I'm talking about. HYGIENE. What's up with the lady comparing that to make up? Ugh!

    I shave and feel that most teens and young women do. It seems like it's a fad. To be honest it is healthier because you can keep it cleaner and it is so much better for sex ;)

    Younger women tend to shave because they're afraid of their bodies. Older women tend not to shave because they dont want to look like children.

    And it looks funny when more mature guys shave, cus their body hair.... It's like "oh, I have a bald spot... On my crotch..."

    I am a female, and I vew genital shaving the same way I view wearing make-up: an unnecessary inconvenience that does nothing but make people buy things, i.e. make-up and razors. I neither shave nor wear make-up. If a man is not man enough to look beyond my appearance to see the woman I truly am, that is his issue, not mine.

    I've been shaving for the past 10 years (am a guy) every woman i've been with loves it - no stray hairs getting in her mouth during oral :-)

    It is as natural as sunrise and sunset, to shave both pubes and underarms. Hairy crutches are not the least attractive. I much prefer nice soft shaven skin.
    I would equally advise, after shaving, apply a little skin cream,
    That's what I do.

    I Trim with the scissors now and then just to keep it looking clean. I'd be to scared to full out shave down there! Might cut something!

      Just because she doesn't wear makeup doesn't mean she doesn't take care of herself...XD

    I've noticed women take more time and enjoy giving oral more often when smooth and clean.

    Sweetheart, I'm 50/50 on the makeup thing as most women over do it. As for the pubic hair, I wouldn't spend nearly as much time giving such a woman oral and would most likely insist on a shower before hand. ;)

    I actually spray the antifungal spray as well as spray deodorant between the ballsack and the thighs every day b4 work. Always dry and fresh.

    Wow. If you're all that comfortable with yourself you must be loads of fun. ;) as far As staying clean, I keep a sypply of baby wipes in the bathroom. If I feel dirty I get uncomfortable. One never knows! ;)

    It's a personal choice. But actually, the hair down there catches bacteria. That's a good thing, no?

    I feel like shaving robs me of a piece of my womanhood: I don't like to look in the mirror and feel like a 12 year old girl.

      I bet your boyfriend/hubby would much rather have you shave. I had an old GF that was opposed to shaving. I talked her into it and she loves how clean she could be and how much better it makes sex. She kept herself shaved. And a "woman's" lips are MUCH more beautiful than a 12 year olds. ;)

    Yes, but it hurt like hell the first time it grew back.

    I would cut it like half way because it can get really itchy if the hairs are too short
