I have . . . maybe about 10 times in my life. It’s kind of fun. I got the idea when I saw some slick looking balls in a porno . . . it’s a much “sleeker” look. Hell, girls get to shave their bush in fun ways all the time . . . it’s almost expected . . . and nobody thinks twice! Well I grew tired of this double standard and decided to shave my balls.*
You have to be extremely careful. The most dangerous part is when you are trimming with the scissors before using the razor blade for the clean shave, because it’s easy to “go too fast.” If you take your time and take care, you can cleanly shave your balls and all your pubes in about 20 minutes.
It feels nice and clean for about 2 to 3 days, followed by an awkward 2-week “growing back” phase, but it’s not as uncomfortable as you’d think.
I’ve only had my shaved balls during periods of sexual inactivity. I never wanted to “surprise” a girl with my shaved balls, because I assume that most women would find it amusing but not necessarily sexy. I kind of want to shave them right now, but I’m actually having sex with a girl on a regular basis and can already tells that she doesn’t like shaved balls. Plus, since I don’t shave my whole body, it doesn’t really “match.”
So now I just trim them so that it’s a little more aesthetically pleasing down there. Plus, it makes your Johnson look bigger.
*I actually don’t care about double standards, I just wanted to shave my balls.
God, that’s funny! I tried shaving my ass crack once, for pretty much the same reason as the guy in the link did (ie, I thought it would be more hygienic). I didn’t have any odor problems, but I did notice the chafing. SWEET JESUS DID IT ITCH! My butt cheeks were rubbing against each other way more than was comfortable.
Like the other guy, I learned that butt hair serves a useful purpose.
I’ve thought about it, but then I think about how many times I’ve shaved my face and how often I still cut myself doing just that…then I lose the urge to potentially turn the ol’ nuts and sack into some unrestrained danglers.
You know, like the shaved female genitalia so oft-favoured by the younger set, I am not a fan of shaved balls.
I like balls to be fuzzy. They’re already kind of goofy; the fuzz adds a bit of endearment to them, in a teddy bear sort of way. I would be really disappointed if my husband pranced to bed with nekkid testicles.
Edited to add the word ‘female’ for slight clarification.
Yep, a couple of times. Yeah, it takes a little care and getting used to and the stubble growing out is a little annoying. But the huge change in sensation is definitely good for a change of pace. Problem #1: eventually, you become acclimated. When the originality fades, grow it out for a few months. Then try again. Problem #2: penis looks bigger but weirder. Another tradeoff, one that’s more conspicuous if you are very lower body hairy (like me). Decisions, decisions…
One more thing: the summer issue. I dunno if you’ve noticed, but the hair removal makes everything hotter, not colder. The hair keeps everything separated by a layer of well-ventilated hair. Removing that causes everything to stay stuck close together and ripe for…uh, being ripe. Don’t do this for the first time in the summer. You’ll be miserable.
The first time I ever actually did it was in 2005. The first time I did it itched like hell when it grew back and I kept scratching it. After that whenever I shaved it never bothered me growing back. I usually shave t every few months now when the thought occurs to me. The one thing that surprised me is that the skin of the scrotum actually seems pretty hard to nick with the razor. I think the skin is thicker than one would imagine. I really need to shave again soon. Its nice when you do cause it does take a little while to grow back if you shave it all the way down.
Did it once (at the request of my then-SO, who was a freak and a half and who already shaved her bidness as regularly as a non-fan of body hair could hope for).
The first day was triffic. Boy, was that some good sex. And it made her even more enthusiastic about providing oral pleasure.
The second day, more of the same.
But on the third day…
Oh, you guys don’t even want to know about the third day. Mr. Peter and his neighbours Mr. Left and Mr. Right-but-occasionally-kind-of-in-the-middle, seemingly so happy when I trimmed the grass around their houses, suddenly realized that the grass grew back. And it was stiff. And itchy. And pokey. And so Mr. Peter made his displeasure well-known, and it was all I could do to walk for almost a week.
Never again. Now I just keep it trimmed to about a half-inch using the longhair trimmer on an old electric shaver.
I posted this on a previous thread on the subject:
Tittilating Testes
“There’s nothing quite like a shorn scrotum. It’s breath-taking really…”
I’ve been shaving mine for years. I’m a big supporter of personal grooming. Most of the women I have been with have shaved. Those that I slept with more than once, I quickly converted to a more hair-free lifestyle. (Assuming they weren’t already members of The Sisters of the Hairless LabiaTM ) It’s cleaner, fresher, and oral friendly.
Same goes for guys. Its only fair.
Me? I vowed years ago to keep the twins hair-free. I saw an ugly angle in a porno… close-up from behind… and thought:
MINE don’t look like that do they?!!! :eek:
Smooth sack ever since. And a tip for the other guys: Trim the top has some added visual advantages. Additional advertising if you know what I mean. Not that I need it! No really! I swear!
(Just wanted to flash a little more “neck”)…
And as for ass-shaving: Don’t use a razor. Shaving it all the way down creates opportunity for chafing, razor burn, and ingrown hairs. Get a hair-trimmer (like for “buzz cut” type hairstyles) and shave without the guard. Your cheeks appear to be baby smooth, and you don’t have to worry about hygiene issues. Been doing that too since viewing the aforementioned video. If I could choose to scrub just one image from my mind, it would be the view of the back of that guy’s nutsack and bunghole. The horror.
