I’ve shaved totally down there, no big deal. Personally, the scrotum part was fine but the upper part got wicked razor rash. I kept it that way for a while, the rash lessened over time. If I wasn’t so lazy I’d have kept it that way.
Increased responsiveness. Like a part of you that’s never been naked is suddenly really naked.
I tried shaving off my pubic hair once. It looked ridiculous. My belly and thighs are also quite hairy, so the bald patch around the penis just made me look like I had mange or something. Plus I was never able to shave my balls without cutting myself.
There was a really bad Adam Sandler movie where he made a joke about how the hotel porn must have been made in the 70s “cuz the guy’s dick had sideburns.”
Mine does.
I also remember an episode of “Loveline” when Drew or Adam (talking about measuring) said the penis starts where the pubic hair ends.
I have been shaving there since I was 18. BUT I don’t remove the upper pubic hair. I think that looks weird and terrible for most people. I think it looks OK for some of the single-digit bodyfat guys in porn, maybe. Same goes for the whole idea of “adding” an inch. I think it makes fat people look smaller (losing weight legitimately adds visible penis length), but very lean guys get the visual effect of extra length.
I trim the top, and shave everything below the base. The scrotum is the easiest part to shave , IMHO.
I’m a male and I mostly trim but every six months or so I’ll completely shave the area. I prefer women to shave the whole area.
I prefer trimmed. I think shaved looks ridiculous. I don’t like wild and free because it often results in hair in my mouth, which i don’t like at all.
For my own I have a beard trimmer I use to keep it under control. I keep it at about 3/4 inches. I’ll go a bit closer on the sack.
Leave him alone.
Yeah, me too, but it’s hard to find volunteers. I usually end up having to do it myself.
The lone palm tree in the middle of a desert island, surrounded by waves. It does look kinda ridiculous. Trimming seems to work just fine.
BTW, I don’t know why people make it sound like some elaborate project. It’s just hair. It’s no different than shaving any other part of your anatomy.
I think it’s kind of ridiculous that he’d refuse to do it even once. Yeah, he can’t just put it back the next day, but it’s not a year-long commitment either.
Part of this comes back to my general opinion on monogamy and kinks. If you really plan to be having sex with only one person for the rest of your life, why would you refuse to do anything they want? Maybe do it less often, maybe redefine it a little so you’re more comfortable… I’m not saying you don’t have input. I just don’t understand why you’d say no.
It itches a whole lot more than other parts of your anatomy if you shave it. That said I would totally do it if my partner wanted it, because it’s pretty important for me also.
When I was shaving my biggest worry was if I would have to get naked in front of other guys like in a shower room or changing into dry clothes on a kayak trip. This is a pretty conservative area and most of my friends are my age more or less. Shaved pubic area on a man would probably be seen as really weird and probably gay. Then my paddling club had a pool rolling rolling session at an indoor pool and everyone was showering the chlorinated pool water off in the locker room so I did too. Never even thought about it until later. No one mentioned it, probably nobody noticed. Like many things I would bet most younger people wouldn’t give it a second thought.
Not in my case. Been shaving the area, on and off, for ages. No itching.
That’s the vibe I’m trying my best to give off anyway. 
It actually turns out that no one ever seems to notice or care, up to and including hookups and girlfriends. The most extreme reaction I’ve ever had was a mildly bemused “huh”.
Younger people and older people.
Sorry, I can’t help you there. That stuff should be left untouched by scissor, razor, blade, wax, or any other kind of trimmer or depilitator.
Yeah, but I can see what I’m doing a lot more easily, and from a lot closer, when shaving my face.
One nice thing about having a beard is that I no longer have to shave those difficult contours between the mouth and the chin. But that strikes me as one hell of a lot easier than shaving my scrotum.
Go by feel. I can shave my face in the dark, by feel. I bet you can, too. Shaving a scrotum doesn’t require close visual inspection as part of the process. It’ll be fine.
Also, have some faith in your own abilities. Most of us can drive cars, work computers, and master any number of other complex tasks. As a species, we can build nanorobots and travel to the moon. Shaving our own scrotums isn’t that complicatedl, all things considered.
