Is it rude to ask her to stop shaving her pubes?

My new girlfriend shaves her pubes and she looks like a child because of it. I hate shaved pubes and want to know if it's rude to tell her to stop shaving it. I almost feel like a molester.

  • It's not rude at all. Perhaps don't quite phrase it with you feeling like a molester but just talk to her about it and say that for you personally, you prefer it otherwise.

    Girls are made to feel quite self-conscious about these things and I have friends who haven't slept with heir boyfriends purely because they hadn't shaved yet. No girl wants to feel ugly or unattractive, so you need to support her in that. Though there are many reasons for shaving, in my experience it's predominantly and foremost done for the guys. Because it's socially-accepted in this age group that anything other than shaved is an ugly monstrosity.

    It's not rude and might actually get you more sex and let her relax a little. But keep in mind that she may not be entirely comfortable with it due to the reasons above, so you may need to coax and support it form her.

  • I don't think it would be rude to ASK her to stop. But telling her, probably not a good approach. Personally, I'd want to know. I know a lot of men that feel exactly as you do, and some actually don't have sex as much as they'd like because of it. Others love shaved women for the very reason you don't. Some prefer it for other reasons. Over the years I've been shaved, waxed, trimmed and au natural. I much prefer being the way nature intended. It's much more comfortable and in my experience it keeps my bits healthier with at least some hair. I feel it's there for a reason. Sometimes my husband will suggest that I shave again, or he'll offer to trim it short and I'm always happy to go along with it for a while.

  • No it's not. I'll never understand this shaved vagina garbage.

    America: home of the mutilated penises and baby girl vaginas.

    • I see we think alike ;) cool

    • It's annoying lol. I have a friend who's uncircumcised and I tried setting him up with a girl who heard through the "grapevine" that he was uncut. She had no interest in dating him as a result of this. I mean, he didn't pick to be that way because his parents chose that. It's not like he's a dirty and gross dude either and he bathes. Same with pubic hair for girls, only now do people think it's "gross" and "unclean" to keep it. Society, social media, and gossip are all to blame for this.

    • I agree. It's media and p*rn that pushes this shaved vagina crap. I hate it! If some guy likes shaved vaginas, he's a pedophile. P*rn and also "medical studies" are to blame for the circumcision epidemic. I think all these studies are false. They say its healthier and cleaner and prevents aids and they say circumcised ones last longer. Many people on this site say the last one is false.

  • Try to have a nice, gentle talk with her. Tell her how you feel about what she has down there, and if she would be willing to change it. Give her time to think about it if she needs time. Maybe ask if there is something she would like you to change about yourself so you can compromise. Hey, you will learn some more things about each other. Give it a try.

    • I'll just tell her there is NO shoe shopping on my dime unless she grows it out.

  • Since she is your sexual partner, you can politely request that, and mention why.

    It's highly possible that she keeps it shaved because she thinks YOU would prefer that, so I don't think it's a big deal to ask her to not shave completely bare.

  • It's not rude to tell her you prefer un-shaven. However, it is her body and you can't exactly "tell" her to stop. She has the right to shave it if she wants to. You should simply tell her you like bushes better and see what her reaction is. Maybe she'll stop and maybe she won't. But it's really her decision.

    • What do you do with yours?

    • I shave mine. It just feels so much better than being hairy. Not so much for the cleanliness (although it feels better for that reason too), but when I had hair there, it was just always itchy for some reason so it just feels more comfortable for me to shave. Just my opinion though. Plenty of girls keep their hair down there, it's just a personal preference.

    • Cool. Thank you for your answer. I just think it would be a pain in the ass to do it all the time. Like my ex had a big vagina (not loose), but she had a long and wide outer "innie" vulva and she spent awhile shaving it. Just seems like a chore!

  • It is rude. Sometimes being rude though is important.

    • Way to make completely no sense.

    • But it is rude and sometimes you do need to ask rude questions and say rude things to your partner. I mean obviously it bothers you to the point where you feel as if you're a "molestor" (which is fine) but telling someone to do something new with their body hair is ... well it's pretty rude. You still need to share it, no? Well, maybe not, maybe you can live with this 'feeling' you claim to have.

    • Feeling I claim to have? Stop answering my question. You annoy the sh*t out of me.

  • @ Best Answer: I am with you girl and my husbend asked me to stop so I keep it trimmed and shaved around where he likes it but above my clit is just trimmed and yes in defiantly helps with personal hygiene

  • You could ask her but she might not. If she doesn't want to totally stop you could ask her to just trim it because shaving down there makes it feel cleaner

    • I asked and she stopped. So now I wait for it to grow.

  • Just talk to her, she'll understand

  • I don't think there is any confusing a grown woman who shaves with a little girl. I mean damn dude what does your girlfriend look like? There are other things besides pubes that make a woman look like a woman.

  • Yes it's rude!

    You're ruining it for the rest of us guys who like to eat out.

    • I bet you've never seen a vagina in your life.

  • I don't think that it's rude

  • you're weird for not liking a shaved beaver

    • You've probably never seen a vagina in person before, so good one.

  • I asked my girlfriend to stop shaving, and I explained her that I like a hairy pussy. Give her some time. If your relationship is good, chances are good that she at least want to give it a try. My girlfriend went from bare to a full bush, but if that's not something for your girlfriend, maybe you can find a compromise such as a landing strip, or keeping it trimmed short. At first, my girlfriend found her pubes too long, so I bought her a nice trimmer. She felt more comfortable with shorter pubes whilst it still looked hairy with a length of 0.5"/1 cm. Take it step by step, she probably needs to get used to the idea and feeling of being hairy. For my girlfriend, trimming it was just a phase. Now she keeps a full bush and doesn't use her trimmer anymore. In fact, apart from washing her pubic area, she doesn't do any maintenance to her pubic hairs. No shaving, no trimming, nothing. Everything is now completely natural.

  • I don't get the shaving thing either, I don't like to do it and I don't like it when men do it.

    I don't think telling her to stop is such a good idea, haha! But you can casually mention that you like some hair down there, playfully suggest she let it grow to try something new. Something like that.

  • It's never rude. You could just ask.

  • No its not rude, just ask her to try it for a little while.

  • maybe compromise? a landing strip, for example. I don't know about your girlfriend, but I shave for personal hygiene reasons. If my boyfriend told me to not shave, that would be torture and I wouldn't do it. So maybe a landing strip would do for both of you: there's pubes for you, but not in the troublesome places for her =)

    • I am so curious to find out why you shave now. If not for aesthetics ...

    • Hygiene reasons? I mean pubic hair was around forever before razors and no one had a problem with it. I just feel like today girls think they are required to be shaved and that it's "cleaner" or whatever, but what you do is your own business. I just don't like bare.

    • I'm not a fan of hair, except head hair and eyebrows and eyelashes haha.. It's just a lot easier to clean yourself if there's no hair in the way. Sorry to be a bit graphic, but especially when you're menstruating, being hairy could be such a hassle with the blood clinging to the hairs and all. Being hairless FEELS much much much cleaner. So yes, personal hygiene for me.

  • Not rude at all. Just say it in a polite way lol. And while you're at it, ask her how she prefers your pubes.

    • Yeah
