Default Shaving down there...

All my life I've shaved nothing but my face, I'm coming up on my vascectomy in 2 weeks and as part of my instructions I'll need to be shaved. So this got me thinking what my wife would think about it, and she was particularly indecisive in her response - she never thought about it.

So I'm just wondering if anyone could weigh in.. I know a drawback would be the need to maintain the shaving lest I have itchyness and cause irritation, I'm thinking we might get more skin-to-skin contact during sex which might be nice.

I've done it for the past year or two, shaving "the boys" and trimming the rest of the forest. My wife was indifferent to the idea, but once I started doing it, found that she likes the look. And, with less hair down there, there are fewer strays to get in her mouth and bug her during oral. Not much trouble to maintain, either...just adds an extra minute or two in the shower every couple of days.

I don't think there's any chance of mistaking me for a 9 year old.

You really don't need to worry should you decide you don't like it. It grows back very fast. All that slowdown in hair growth on your head as you got older? It didn't go away, it just relocated a bit.

It doesn't matter to me aesthetically, but H seems rather proud of his appearance when he shaves. It DOES help with the hair-in-mouth aspect.

H does it every so often. I like the feel of it when he's bare, it feels bigger and I can be more adventurous with him. He is also more sensitive when the hair is gone so that adds another little layer to the excitement.

He doesn't keep it shaved all the time and I am fine with that. It is usually a big undertaking so I understand not wanting to deal with that maintenance all the time.

There is a bad window though, when he's got stubble maybe 4-5 days afterwards and it can really irritate my skim. I will usually avoid sex with him until its grown back in a bit more for that reason.

As a lady, I definitely will give my hubs more "attention" when he's trimmed.
Tip: Try using clippers instead of a razor if irritation is a problem, for either party.

I shave it all and the wife prefers it. Don't worry about references to looking like a child, that philosophy is in the mind of the one providing the opinion. Nothing child like about me. My wife shave and it makes everything fresher, cleaner, and more sensitive during intimacy.

I only have to shave about 3 times a week and I don't get razor burn or anything.

I prefer when hubby shaves his. However, I totally leave it up to him (as he leaves my grooming up to me). I really need to get a trimmer... I've never been good at getting it perfectly. LOL

Anyway, WillK, when you do it, let her inspect.
If she likes it (and you will know by how she acts/reacts) keep it up. If she dos not, then just let it grow back

I used to NEVER go down there because of all the hair, one day he trimmed it just the bush and I could deep throat much further, than I told him how I liked that, later down the line he actually shaved the balls, and trimmed the other areas as much as he could, now I go down there all the time, makes everything funner and makes his d*** look way bigger and just more appealing!

As another poster said it's not big deal if he shaves or not, cause he doens't care if I do, but it's deff nice for both parties, makes everything a bit funner
