Dig in, Dio, dig in.
Did you read the link I posted? Care to provide a definition of “feminine” for us?
No, this one is just factually, biologically false.
“Characteristic of females.”
Since when are shaved vaginas even a cultural norm? That’s a kink, not a norm.
Dio, the word “feminine” just means “pertaining to women.” So, wearing makeup is “feminine,” even thought it has nothing to do with biology. In the same manner, shaving the one’s pubic area can also be described as “feminine” (because it is something that pertains to women).
I never said that shaved vaginae are a cultural norm. I just said that it is common for women to shave their pubic regions and uncommon for men to do so. Which is why the practice can be described as “feminine.” And why you are wrong, yet again, but you’ll keep going. I’m just here to make sure everyone knows exactly why you are wrong.
Right, that’s why the baby aisle at the store is filled with infant and toddler deodorants. Have you ever met a toddler that wore deodorant? Have you ever met one that needed to wear deodorant? For most people, body odor doesn’t become a problem until puberty starts. This is common knowledge (or at least I thought it was).
Female sex characteristics are something that “pertain to women,” so under your definition (which is slightly less coherent than mine) you would have to agree that it’s false and inaccurate to say that female pubic hair is NOT feminine, would you not? That is the statement I object to – the statement that bush is NOT feminine. Of course it is, by your own definition.
Cite that it’s “common” for women to shave their pubic areas? Since when. What percentage of all women do you think do that? I’m betting it’s less than one percent.
Toddlers aren’t in the work place and looking for sex partners. That doesn’t mean they don’t have body odors. I assure you that they do.
I have a toddler and I assure you, he doesn’t. On very rare occasions his feet will smell when they’ve been in shoes all day, but I have never once in his two-and-a-half years of life smelled anything from him that I would identify as body odor, and certainly nothing as offensive as what I’ve smelled from teenagers.
This argument is based on the fact that nobody will be able to produce any significant statistics on the subject. I’m betting it’s 99%. Prove me wrong.
Dio, please show how stupid the above post is in the following simple steps:
-
Stand up.
-
Pull the front of your grease-stained gym shorts away from your body.
-
Look down.
-
If you see only skin, then suck in your gut or move it to the side while bending over some and still looking down.
-
See that stuff growing above your weenus? What is that? What do you call it?
I have three, and I assure you that he does.
Are you honestly trying to convince me that the scent of your children is so great that they smell just as bad as a deodorant-less teenager?
Shh - don’t let the marketing people hear you. This is a “manufactured demand” just waiting to happen.
I don’t know. I haven’t tried to smell any teenagers lately. Maybe the underarm odor isn’t there, but they can get pretty ripe if they’ve been playing in the yard.
I don’t even know what your point is anyway. If you’re saying that underarm odor is an adult female characteristic, then you’re saying it’s a feminine characteristic.
So you are stating that pubic hair is feminine. You have pubic hair. Are you feminine?
Pubic hair is both feminine and masculine. Do you deny that it is feminine?
Well yeah, until you dig around and find a cock and balls in it.
By definition, a thing cannot be categorized as both masculine and feminine. If it is common to both sexes, it is gender-neutral. If it has components of both sexes, it is mixed-gender. But nothing in itself can be both masculine and feminine. The presence of pubic hair doesn’t tell you anything about masculinity or femininity, just sexual maturity.
Personally I deny (what’s with the italics?) that hair is feminine OR masculine. It’s just hair. Armpit hair is just hair. Leg hair is just hair. Hair on your head is, yes you guessed it, just hair. As human beings we all have hair in varying degrees. I don’t assign masculinity or femininity to something that both sexes have.
To me it’s pretty silly to say that shaved pubic region = child like. If that’s so you’d have to say the same for the other hair that comes on around the time of puberty for most women which is leg hair and armpit hair. If your wife shaves her pits does that make you think of a little girl?
It seems to me that you’re wanting to make something pretty benign into something fairly controversial and I can’t imagine what would motivate you to do so.
