> Pubic hair still exists? 😁

I visited my gynecologist a couple of weeks ago and asked her, “Is it true that most women under the age of, say 35-ish, shave or wax just about all their pubic hair.” She said yes, and she should know. Then I said, “So you have men that age or younger who have never seen a woman with a full growth of pubic hair?” And again, she said yes.

In fact, she said that she heard of a movie that was being made about the Sexy 70s (the decade, not the age group – **that’s** another thread) and they couldn’t find any young actresses who had 1970s-style pubic hair, so the girls had to wear genital toupees.

I’m guessing a modern guy who has been weaned (as it were) on bare female pubes would completely freak out if he saw A Complete Untrimmed Natural. _“You want me to put my whatever into THAT?”_ OTOH it bothers me that adult women are remaking their genitalia to look like those of 10-year old girls. (I’m not talking about a little tasteful trimming, but removing every hair.)
