We Have Pubic Hair for a Reason

431. Not being furry doesn't mean you don't have some

When I was young and they first started arriving I plucked them out with tweezers because it never occurred to me to use a razor, and unfortunately it was difficult to keep up with them particularly since pulling them out with tweezers was God-awful painful. My older sister clued me into the razor and Nair.

As for your never having any of the problems I described perhaps you are one of those lucky women that has naturally short downy hairs that don't grow into a huge shrub... many women I know including those in my own family (which probably also means me had I let it ever grow to that point) had the long enough to braid creeping shrubbery.

I also heard a lot of "girl talk" from my peers... didn't experience all of the problems personally (girls talk about such personal tragedies, you know). I definitely had that tampon string problem before though, and damn good thing I was in "the girls" bathroom of the house with a pair of haircutting scissors in the medicine cabinet. That was actually the whole reason I wanted to start using tampons in the first place (which was not something girls our age usually used back then) because dried menstrual flow that had been allowed to leak out onto a pad caked pubic hairs on either "side" together which meant the hairs ripped out excruciatingly when spreading one's legs to step over the bathtub rim or mount a bicycle, etc. Several times I had to shimmy into the tub and soak the caked blood off the hairs to avoid the agony of having them yanked out.

As for the couple of hours with four pairs of tweezers... joke. I wouldn't have the patience or the mercy and would have yanked the condom off myself even if I had to put up with the howling. However, truthfully I did get my nose ring caught in one guy's shrubbery, which though painful and a little bloody (my nose that is) was still hilarious though that could have had a lot more to do with who's shrubbery it was. We still laugh about that.
