[QUOTE=cornflakes] You couldn’t see it for the hair. [/QUOTE] Well, duh, first you have all hair on your body removed except for head hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes. Those you have extensions glued onto. Honestly, you must be further behind the times than I am. I can understand (somewhat) about porn stars wanting the procedure in their line of work, but I’m also thinking that if you don’t want to see a natural asshole, don’t be looking there. 😃 ---

I’m not saying anal bleaching is worthless, but I think scrotal starching and labial dyeing are more important, not to mention (of course) nipple ironing. ---

It’s too bad the “Does your ass shred the Charmin?” thread is in a different forum, I think it would be a great companion to this thread. Perhaps this could be pitched to the manufacturers of Charmin? Hey, how about adding some bleach to those moist wipe thingys, it’s all the rage. ---

Freak out your partner: only bleach half then ask them if they’d take a look to see if there’s anything wrong back there.
