    Young man's angst. Can you imagine being a 50 year old guy, recently divorced and learning you need to shave your balls to attract a woman (under 30)? Almost as amusing as the hair color ad for men where the young daughters beg their Dad to get back in the game and color his damn hair already.


    Welcome to the world of hideous head to to insecurity, men. Comfy, isn't it?


    And ingrown hairs? You'll love 'em! And you'll only look like a porn star for the first two hours of the day - then you'll start to look like a cactus. Pret-ty.

    @TroisFilles: OMG, yes. A few years ago there was a guy at my office who was pressing mightily for an affair. One of the more hideous comments he made -- ostensibly to get me fired up and interested -- was that he had shaved his groin, including testicles. He was 47. He has since been downsized, I'm guessing in more ways than one.

    I recently saw a Philips ad about the same thing, though it was slightly more euphemistic. Serious question: has this always been a thing, or is it only now coming up because some impressionable youths in 1997 that took Dr. Evil's described encounter with the Zoroastrian Vilma too seriously are now in positions to make it socially real?

    ...and ladies are getting the recession-friendly advice to switch from expensive full-crotch waxing to the bikini-line-only look.


    So we're going to have ALL the pubic hair!

    One could argue that some hair provides a bit of separation between the jewel bag and the adjacent skin and undergarments, allowing much needed airflow and preventing stank build up.

    Guys, please do not fall for this! I know I'm just one woman, but please -- please! -- just stay the way God made you, hair and all. There is nothing -- nothing! -- like a man au natural, hairy, smelling all manly and good. It is sooooo good!

    @Mama Penguino: I am not about to engage in a "shave that thing" smackdown with you, my fur- (feather-?) loving friend. But if a gentleman wants something, say, on the exotic side, it is just good manners to do a bit of field clearing.

    I am hesitant.


    I might have to practice my shaving stroke using two bowling bowls with a duraflame log wedged between them.
