Shaven Vs. Unshaven Pussy -- Why does it matter?

[esclave_PP]

Now before everyone answers saying it is personal preference, I am actually looking into this more philosophically. This is a question out of curiousity more than anything else. Why is it that someone prefers a shaved pussy compared to one that is hairy? Does it really make a difference in the sessions? Does the hair get caught in the ropes so to speak? A lot of the erotic pictures we see floating around the web have clean shaven pussies. Is that just a societal desire? What do you guys think? I hope we can get a more philosophical discussion going on this. Thanks guys!

Its a pleasure thing!!

If shaven perfectly smooth on both parties the feeling of smooth skin on smoth skin can be as erotic as the act itself.

I personally am smooth shaven and it feels wonderfull

Interesting that you just asked the men.

LOL.

Speaking from a bi perspective, I am not too terribly fond of a bushy cunt. I keep myself shaved down, and I like women I play with to be the same way. I find it much more erotic to go down on a woman who is smooth, and bare....every sensation seems heightened, and there's nothing I can't get to with fingers or tongue.

It is a thrill for allll the senses, tactile, visual, oral, etc.....when not hidden by a jungle of hair.

IMHO. *grin*

I've not yet had the pleasure of going down on a woman but having gone down on a man ... is there anything as bad as gagging because you have gotten a hair in the back of your throat? Seriously, the guy I had experiences with was rather bushy and once or twice, i got a hair in my mouth ... and it caused some unpleasant retrival of said hair.


As for being shaven - I think it's seen as naughty. Being taboo in the same way that anal is taboo. A lot of people do it, a lot of peope enjoy it, but no body talks about it. Because if you do, you must be a slut... and that's a bad thing isn't it? Yep, cause that's what society teaches girls - enjoying sex, bad, shaving pussy, naughty porno thing - good girls don't do that.! At least, that's my guess.

AS to technicalities, I hate stubble. So I keep it trim but not shaven. I find the little lines of hair or the small triangles to be the most aesthetically pleasing. And if its gone, you can't tug on it... and if you've ever had anyone tug on your pubic hair... you know the delicious pain it can be.

But I've never heard of it getting cuahgt in anything but a zipper.


The thing I don't get is the no panties thing.... because I can wear a pair of dress slacks twice as long without laundering if i wear panties... being a horny slut that leaks And not being a skirt wearer, it really doesn't take any extra effort to pull of my panties along with my pants... so i just don't get it.

I prefer to be shaven because I find it cleaner... I leave a "landing strip" but keep the lip area shaven. And I am in firm agreement with Anelize about prefering the women I play with to be shaven as well, but I extend that to include men. I really just dislike body hair in general, but find pubic hair kinda gross.

I was told once that hair removal was a way of showing submission. It has been done for a long time for this purpose. I dont have any concrete fact on this and for the life of me wouldnt know how to do a google search on it to find out if that fact is correct.

Very cool thoughts! Actually was asking everyone! Men and Women chime in please! I am bi myself, and I guess having eaten both, it is easier to eat a non-hairy bush and slip and slide can be a lot more pleasurable. Right now Master prefers me hairy which personally is really hard. I much prefer to be clean shaven or trimmed at least -- I am one of those lucky women with extra testosterone so I have hair, black hair, too much fricken hair...ahhhh (as an aside anyone with a good recommendation for stuble course hair?). He absolutely won't let me shave down there. And of course he's MAster, he's the man, not gonna go against that but eep a trim would be nice. Master likes to tug on it too.

Now previous Master preferred clean shaven but he was also much more into shibari rope bondage and liked to see all the pink once the rope was in place. Plus he liked to eat a smooth pussy -- didn't like the hairs getting in his mouth.

Interesting that clean shaven = taboo. Isn't it considered bad to shave pits in europe? Like you were considered a prostitute or cheap woman if you shaved? I can't remember -- if someone could correct me that would be great!

what about waxing?

I definitely enjoy more sensations when I am freshly shaven.

I am considering getting waxed but I keep whimping out. Any advice from someone who is waxed?

Appreciate it.

Ok first of all, there are several threads around here that extol the virtues of Magic, a dipilatory. That might help soften the stubble if not remove it completely.

I like myself better smooth. Having said that I HATE shaving and I always seem to miss a spot. I have tried the aforementioned magic but I have to be really, really careful as I've had problems with other products in the past. Currently I'm trimmed fairly close.

Now here is something to chew on. Sometimes when I look at pics of shaven women I think they look prepubescent. I am NOT saying that people who prefer the shaved look are closet peodophiles. But, I wonder if there isn't an element of taking away womanhood for some. There is a little irony in something that looks so innocent being used in a decidely not so innocent manner.

Its not submissiveness. As a dom I shave myself purely for the pleasure feeling.

She can shave me anywhere else but down there its just my shaving it

I didnt say that you did it for those reasons...i was adding what i had hear to the thread is all, im sure most do it for personal reasons but many D/s BDSMers do it and i was sharing what i knew.

Im not saying you said I said that (does that even make sence?)


I was just makign a counter point to the post you made. I was just stating my reason for doing it

LOL gotcha, sorry for misunderstanding and thinking you misunderstood (did that make sense?)

 

[Vixandra]

Personally, I like being either trimmed or clean shaven (though doing it right before a week of chem gear play at work is NOT recommendable). For my lover- I adore it when I can manage to get him to shave down there and bitch when it at least isn't trimmed.
I DISPISE, Loath and abhore getting pubic hair stuck in my teeth- nasty barely starts it. Cleanliness and ease of lickability issue. There are some wonderfully sensative spots that, when covered by hair, just aren't easy to get to.

 

[Anna Sue]

re

I am personally shaved, since my early twenty's.
I am not sure why I did it but I don't like much body hair on me.

And I personally like it more when I give a blow job that the guy is shaved too. Don't need to be to the skin but trimmed down.
I hate long hair in my mouth.
Sorry only my personal option.

2 things here
First, the human body is often seen as "dirty" due to its "animal nature"
Doing something to make ourselves seem less "animal" makes it seem "cleaner"
Second, you're 100% correct about the womanhood thing
It goes back to the whole "Madonna/Whore" complex
A large part of the appeal of a "Lolita" type young girl is that she is sexual and willing but still "pure" due to her youth
Removing the pubic hair makes the woman appear younger and more "pure"

I've run across literature on both of these ideas in several texts

Me personally, I don't mind a path or landing strip, but I like the lips and surrounding area bare so I can see the parts & not get hair stuck in my teeth

 

[FungiUg]

Why is it that someone prefers a shaved pussy compared to one that is hairy?

For me, it's all about fingers and tongue. The bare skin feels better against my fingers, and it gives me more to play with for my tongue. Licking the outer pussy lips, inner thigh, below the cunt, the mons... it's all sexy to do (and sexy to feel, so I have been told.)

From the other perspective, my lover hates the feel of hair down there. So she keeps herself hair free out of personal preference. She also loves me shaving her.

 

[bunny bondage]

i had pubic hair for about a month when i was twelve. i then dyed it green, kept it for another couple of days, then shaved it off. it's been gone since, and i'd never change. it's definitely the lolita thing for me. i look about fourteen years old anyway, and a shaved pussy is just the icing on the cake. also, it really is cleaner, and it just feels better. also, i shave my arms. the feeling of ultra-smooth skin is just TOO sexy! sociological conditioning or just weird? i'm not sure.

 

[WriterDom]

If the color is exceptional, I like most of the triangle left, otherwise, shave it off.

Wow green? Why green? That's kinda cool! I totally understand about the Lolita thing. You go girl!

Has anyone shared their pussies either way on the photo threads? I know skitten has (thank you skitten for the lovely photos!). Anyone else?

 

[thegreenfairy]

I wax (yes, it hurts), and I like it when other women are smooth as well. A major exception to that would be a redhead friend of mine - her pubic hair looks SO cool. But even on her, I think that shaving around the eges is nice, because a smooth bikini line complements sexy underwear.

On guys - I'm nover sure how I feel about hair. It is nice when they shave at least a little bit - it certainly encourages me.

I was told once that hair removal was a way of showing submission. It has been done for a long time for this purpose.

From my research into this through a few Dominants, you are partly correct KC, though most add the main incentive is that no part of the submissive body can be hidden from their gaze, touch, and/or inspection.....also seen as part of that submissive thought. Is added to in that many new submissives have never done this of their own free will so it appears a little naughty or challenging, and so is a way of emphasisning the submission to the Dominants preferences.

Sort of a lost cause on me though as I have been doing it of my own free will for 27 years now so is not in the lease unusual or submissive. In fact as Master realised, it would be far more challenging and difficult to ask me to grow it. Luckily for me he finds this thought equally repulsive so only tried the idea to see if I would submit, and once I did agree to fulfil his wish, he informed me he was not going to carry through, just checking. Phew, thought I was a goner.

Awww, he uses it as a threat every now and then but doesn't do it. LOL, if he ever does let's hope it ain't the last one he took as that would be too much to bare.
