Dating: Girl asks - How much should I shave down there?



Q.  How often should i shave down there? I have sensitive skin and don't want to get irritation, as that is just gross, but i am wondering how often someone without sensitive skin would shave and how often is the generally accepted time period. thank you!

A.  You know, I was just reading an interesting article in The Atlantic about how more and more women are shaving their lady business than ever before. That certainly wasn't the case back in the day, if old pornos and Playboys are any indication. But for whatever reason -- maybe they think men like it, maybe it's part of the eternal quest for youth -- more women are waxing down there than ever before.

The article mentions a study that says sexually active women are more likely to shave it all off, which makes me think women think it's something that guys want. To which I say: WE DON'T REALLY CARE. Sure, we all want your vag to look nice. But there's nothing wrong with body hair, pubic or otherwise. Men who are scared off by pubic hair don't get laid very often.

As for you, your sensitive skin should be a priority. Whether that means more often or less often, let your skin be the guide. Because, yes, your guy doesn't want you to break out.

It's more important to the guy that you and your lady parts be comfortable. After all, you're the one walking around with them. But I don't think there is, nor should there be, an "accepted time period." So shave as often, or as infrequently, as you feel comfortable with. If shaving too often irritates your skin, then, to paraphrase a popular Christmas song "let it grow, let it grow, let it grow."
