Leave it up to Minneapolis faux alt-weekly columinst Alexis (how she gets this sort of topic to fly within the confines of a stodgy newspaper is beyond me) to ponder the topic of pubic hair. Unsurprisingly, the short question generated a fair amount of feedback and made me wonder too.
I'm normally not one to pry or to reveal alot about myself either. But I have to wonder what people's opinions are on the personal grooming front. Is it a must for your partner to be as bald as a three year-old or are you all in favor of rocking some 70s-era rug? Are you sporting a mohawk of sorts or rocking the mullet? Is the choice purely aesthetic or is based on your significant other's preferences? Is it for health reasons or is below-the-belt grooming the last damn thing on your mind?
I don't normally go around asking strangers on the street what they prefer in terms of trimming/shaving/waxing or what they themselves have done but, hell, if you want to share, more power to you. The more who open up will coax me into the confessional as well.
The string of comments in the link above, though, opened my eyes to a number of things including certain infections whose cause I had no idea about. Call me naive but if we've evolved beyond a full-on coat of body hair/fur, can groinal coiffage be far behind?
