I don’t mind hair, but my favorite style is the lips shaved, but not above. “Landing Strip,” as it is known in some circles. It makes it so much easier if I want to “go downtown,” which, BTW, I love to do. So anything that makes it more enjoyable for ME, makes it more enjoyable for the ladies. 😉

Nothing wrong with a little (or a lot) of landscaping. Do a little myself. The wife a lot more. See previous statements as to “the dining experience.” I know it’s all in my mind, but I feel…cleaner, somehow.

What about a “Welcome Mat”?

Razor (Gillette Venus), myself. Every other day in the shower. Not a big deal, I don’t cut myself, don’t get ingrown hairs, it doesn’t itch and I don’t get a razor burn. Just lucky I suppose.
I started when I was about 13, first of all just bikini line for swimsuits, and then more and more. A couple of years ago I was getting ready to go out and had a bit too much wine before I got in the shower, so I sort of got carried away with the razor.
Realised I preferred it like that, so now keep everything minimal. Hubby doesn’t care as long as there isn’t stubble.
On the other hand, I couldn’t care less what irishfella does, and AFAIK he leaves things as they are.
