After reading all about the practice here on the SDMB, I decided I just had to try it, if only to satisfy my curiosity. I didn’t actually shave; I didn’t want to risk cuts, razor burn, ingrown hairs, or itching. I used the safety clippers I have for my beard and mustache to bring the hair down to eighth-inch stubble, and called it good.
Then, now that I had basically bare skin, I decided to apply some lotion, to make sure I’d be smooth and supple. I broke out the Clinique, and carefully put a small amount on my package. Then I rubbed, and rubbed, and rubbed and rubbed and rubbed and rubbed and rubbed and I bet you know how that part of the story ends.
Anyway, I should have done it years ago. It’s more sensitive, it looks neater and larger and more inviting, and I feel incredibly studly, even just sitting here. My wife really likes it, too. Good thing, considering I didn’t tell her in advance; I just did it.
Really, I can’t recommend it highly enough. Of course, it’s not like I can tell family or friends or co-workers about it, so the only place I can satisfy my urge to gush and dish about it is here.

Yeah, i just shaved this last weekend. I would have never done it on my own, but it was late and i was tired, and it was a dare. I’m still trying to think of a good dare to get him back. any suggestions?
PHYS: Dare him to shave his butt. Completely. I don’t remember where, but I think I read something about someone who did that. He encountered many problems, such as more sweating more friction, etc. I don’t know if it was true, but it sounds like it would present at least a few troubles. And if it doesn’t, then it’s at least a fair trade for your bald balls.
I’ve curiously read these shorn scrotum threads for some time now, and this one had an impact. I’m taking the plunge and joining the ranks, for my girlfriend, the golden-eyed elf who wears cat ears is coming tomorrow night from San Diego.
I will shortly brandish my razor and cry, "Fear me, oh tangled pubic hair! You shall not last throughout the hour!
“Friends, I shall be back after the deed has been committed. And the guilty, flushed out like the naves they are… Take heart because I have a steady hand… and with the grace of God, the batteries will be as strong as my resolve.”
(Charging off with cordless electric razor in hand.)
I’ve done it a few times myself. Makes you intensely aware of your penis at all times for about a week after you have it done, you can feel it moving around in your pants a lot more.
The deed has been done, the sideburn adapter on my Remington came in very handy and it didn’t fail me, the razor stayed on for a half-hour. Who would have thought it would have taken so long? My privates are shaved, washed, well-oiled and sliding around…
Badtz Maru, you are so right.
Woo! That’s enough fun for one day. Now I’m going to e-mail the girlfriend and let her know so she doesn’t laugh (much).
Another shaved one checking in. And to all the guys who haven’t done it do it! Your girlfriends will thank you. [sub](that is unless of course they enjoy a furry guy)[/sub]
WHY oh WHY do I feel I MUST open threads such as this??? You had me until you started in about the Clinique. My eyeballs burst right about then. –Persephone
