I'm all for better sex, and the right of women to remove whatever body hair they choose, but this 'article' on brazilian waxing on the Brisbane Times website reads so much like an advertorial it's ridiculous. The 'survey' they cite is not at all scientific.
Stripping off all your pubic hair improves your sex life, according to a small sample of Australian women who have embraced the Brazilian phenomenon.
Preliminary results from a quirky online survey by cosmetic specialists have shed the first light on the reasons many Australian women opt to permanently remove all their genital hair.
More than 80 per cent said they underwent the so-called permanent Brazilian, where hair is lasered off, for aesthetic reasons, and about 60 per cent said hygiene was a motivator.
Hygiene? You'd think the 'journalist' who authored the article would have had the sense to point out that having pubic hair has no bearing on hygiene, and question where these weird and baseless insecurities arise. Could the Cosmetic Physicians Society of Australasia be responsible for perpetuating false beliefs about the cleanliness of womens' genitalia and making them believe that a brazilian is necessary for proper hygiene?
It's not that I buy into the myth that all women who remove some or all of their pubic hair want to look like little girls, any more than men who do so want to look like little boys. I think the non-permanent methods of hair removal are more akin to changing one's hairstyle (as opposed to down-therestyle). But so many women are insecure about their bodies that I think it's rather irresponsible of a mainstream media outlet to go uncritically promoting brazilian pube-styling on behalf of the Cosmetic Physicians Society of Australasia.
Let women make up their own minds, without this bullshit about 'better sex' and lies about hygiene. Of course sex is better when something a woman is psychologically hung up about is removed from the equation. Uninhibited sex is always better. Surely it would be smarter to address the insecurities rather than build on them...

And where are my manners? I was going to criticise the Brisbane Times for not mentioning male pubic hair removal at all, when I realised all my pictures were of women. I recommend Mrs Candy's The Perfect Phallus for great pictures of what she so wonderfully terms 'manscaping'.

Um ... doesn't it hurt like mega bad? Judith Lucy had one done on air. She showed her partner. He said.
'It looks like your vagina swallowed a baby bird'.
Waxing hurts, I've never had the laser thing done, but from what I've heard it's not too bad.
As for Judith Lucy... I can't imagine... and perhaps I don't want to!
I don't understand why women are expected to remove their pubic hair. I find a full bush to be very erotic and would not want to date a women (or even have sex with one) who has removed all of her pubic hair. For me there is no such thing as too much pubic hair.
i love having a lot of hair down there--its womanly.
Throw away those razors, ladies! Real men love real women!
Aaaahhh... beautiful bushes. Love em.
God I agree. I'm tired of nothing but bald cunts. Ladies, please, grow the bushes. Look at how beautiful they are.
I agree with all the above bush lovers. Please girls, grow 'em. They're so beautiful.
