I either epilate or use some tweezers to pull out every single pube. EVERY LAST ONE. Anyone else do this?

Sounds like a form of trichotillomania (urges to pull out body hair). It's commonly related to anxiety or boredom

  Maybe it's this. I like pulling them out and sometimes I do it without thinking about it. I am am anxious person and I compulsively scratch my shoulders during work at my desk.

How long does that take you?

Waxing would be quicker and less painful, I would think.

  I used to wax my own lower legs before I had some laser done, it was totally worth it!

    Laser hasn't done shit for me :( I only had a few sessions, though , before I left Melbourne. Place I enquired with in Sydney won't book me cos of my medications - that have no bearing in laser treatment. Dicks. Fuck em.
    
    Has something similar to electrolysis that helped somewhat.
    
    I've waxed my own legs and underarms, but I find it's worth the money to go to a salon. It's done in like 20mins and I don't feel a thing.

  Waxing is annoying. It costs a lot and you have to go to the salon for an appointment and make small talk with the waxer

    True. But cost vs time consumed...
    
    Anyway. Your choice.

      What difference does it make? Lets just say I'm not a big fun of too much grooming in that area. I just want to be comfortable, and chill. I'm not trying to give anyone in the gym locker room a show, yanno?

        In my mind, I think of you as being wonderfully natural even tho I don't want to bother you about it. But I was also thinking something else. If you do not use Facebook, congratulations, else you might like this Facebook page, 'Don't Fuck with her Feelings ''Bro'''.

        It feels cleaner to me and it's easier during sex because you don't have to dig through a bush to get to it.
        
        Also I hate having hairy bits stick out of my swimming costume, it's unsightly.

      What do you class as a groom? Do you just trim them? Or do you remove some?

Hair in that area is always an issue! If it suits your pain threshold, why not? I prefer shaving.

That must hurt...I'd say for myself it's normal but it also must be time-consuming...and again; painful.

I would never do that. Sounds extremely painful. Sometimes when my pubic hair gets long it gets pulled by my briefs and even just that hurts.

Yeah I love my epilator, but yeah it does make my eyes water and nose run. Plus sometimes it takes to long for the hair to grow back and I hey impatient and shave.

Don't they sell electric hair trimmers at stores? Plucking it out seems time consuming.

  Causes stubble and rashes which is gross.
  
  I have sensitive skin so shaving is uncomfortable for me

Eye-watering.

I'm sure it's not very common these days since there are faster and easier ways to do it, but apparently it was normal for the Romans and other ancient cultures. Of course, they had slaves do it rather than having to bend double to see what they were doing.

Are You Normal?

Is it normal to tweeze out all of your pubes?
