Yesterday, I learned in a thread here that a merkin is false hair for the female pudenda.
My question is, why on earth would a woman even consider wearing a merkin?

For the same reason they’ll pluck out their eyebrows by the roots and then DRAW them back on.
I always thought the merkin hearkened back to the halcyon days of super-prevalent STDs and the resulting lack of hair due to scars.
And the need to hide the scars, since visual evidence of pox tends to drown ardor?
I thought what Queen Bruin thought. I assumed a prostitute would wear it to appear healthier than she really was.
Now I really want to make a joke about growing out my pubic hair to donate to some sort of Locks of Love charity for prostitutes who have lost their pubes.
Because they’re hawt! You’ve never been with a gal who wore a merkin? Fun stuff!
I believe that The Great One (Cecil, not Gretzky) has addressed the issue.
Oi Bagel over here in the UK used to have odd sayings on their bagel wrappers, including Celia’s merkin. (Christ on a Bike was another one).
They’ve gone out of business now.
A woman wears a merkin because she doesn’t want her money going to furriners!
Wear a merkin! Buy a merkin! And look for that union label!
Women spend >$75 to get a wax removal job-so they remove all their pubic hair. Then, replace it? I though the wholwe puprose of waxing was so they could wear a micro bikini without showing hair. So why remove something at great expense, then replace it?
At…
…you’ll find a few audio CDs on the Merkin matter. One song, “Victory Lap” gives new meaning to the concept of celebration.
You’ll also find authors named Merkin, as well as a line of clothing (currently unavailable) with “Ask me about my MERKIN” on the front.
Furthermore, if you Google it, you might - as I did - run into Andrew’s original question to Cecil that Sunspace was so kind to provide in this thread.
And to Santo Rugger…No I’ve never made it with a gal who wore a merkin. Tell us about the fun stuff! Did you come up for air to find yourself sporting a mustache?
So do men wear it ever?
Also, how does one stick it on?
I’m female, and I actually like my (real) pubes. I guess I’m a freak in today’s world!
And why is that, exactly?

I don’t know any women who do this. But then, I don’t know of any women who wear merkins either. Perhaps they are the same.
Oh dear. I guess I can’t go around saying that Ah’m proud to be a 'Merkin.
I’ve known several women who plucked their eyebrows into oblivion and then drew on eyebrows that pleased them better. Without exception the drawn-on eyebrows looked freakish.
I doubt too many merkins are sold these days, except maybe as a novelty item.
Well, if you dye your hair, as women are wont to do, a merkin is one way to have the carpet match the drapes, without the chemical burns.
I’m going to take a guess on this one. All the women I’ve seen do this had very sparse but large (in area) eyebrows, so in order to get a neat line, they’d either have to pluck each hair around the desired line to attain the desired result, which would still have to be filled in.*
So they do the easier thing which is to shave it all off or wax it all off and draw in a new line.
*wow, this was hard to explain. Guys’ lives must be so uncomplicated in comparison.
OK, ladies, seriously, what the fuck is up with that? Why does anyone think not having any eyebrows can be anything other than Extremely Creepy?
Actually, I’m pretty sure I’d like your real pubes too.
This is the more vital question than why. How do they keep it on? Spirit gum? A string about the waist as if it were a freakish birthday hat?
