The second I saw that Pringles canister I was praying that we'd see a Pringles Duck Beak.

I was not disappointed. #potpsychology

If I eat a whole clove of roast garlic over the course of a couple days, my vagina tastes like garlic.

Actually my vagina kind of always tastes like garlic, because I eat so much of it. Sometimes when I just eat roasted garlic on a baguette with blue cheese for dinner and nothing else, my vagina also kind of smells like garlic. So does my skin, my breath, and my hair.

Good thing my boyf likes garlic-flavored vagina. #potpsychology

I HAVE WORDS LIKE THAT TOO. AND I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT THEM.

Two of mine are Kaufman and Feynman. I know how they are pronounced but I still never pronounce them correctly. And I should know better, because I have a last name that is usually mispronounced myself, and it's annoying. Plus you look like an idiot when you're talking about how much you love someone and someone points out that you're pronouncing their name wrong. #potpsychology

Ahhaahaha. This reminds me of a friend of mine who keeps misusing the term "OPP." She thinks it means "Other People's Problems."

She uses it all. the. time. I have to keep reminding her that no matter how much she wants to make the new definition of OPP happen, Naughty By Nature have already claimed it, and she just has to give it up and stop humiliating herself! I am NOT down with the new definition of OPP! #potpsychology

Whoa I was JUST talking to a couple guy friends about this! I think the line, "if a man really can't handle it, maybe it's not the pubic hair that has to go," pretty much sums up our conclusions. Both guys are somewhat masculine, but overall just good, gentlemanly, chivalrous, kind, funny dudes. And not that getting the male perspective on this is the final word, but they both said that finding a bush would never ever stop them from eating some pussy. (Sorry, I hope I don't offend anyone, but that's exactly the way they put it).

In my experience, the dudes that are grossed out by pubic hair, have other issues. They're the ones overly obsessed with their own appearance, and also– they just don't love women. I don't mean they're homosexual, but they don't love, honor, and respect women they way they should. Perhaps I'm getting too deep on this, but I really think it's indicative of how much a man truly loves women. If he'll enthusiastically go down on you regardless of how long your pubic – or leg! – hair is, ignoring it along with granny panties and any other obstacle? He's the definition of a real man in my book! #advice

I'll just say this: I have never had anyone, man or woman, be turned off by my pubic hair. I have an average growth pattern with not a lot on my thighs and I don't shave at all. I trim it down about once every month or two, but that's it. I have had many people be pleasantly surprised by my pubic hair and more turned on for it. If hairlessness was once erotic because it was exotic and unexpected, I believe the reverse is happening now that everyone has jumped on the stupid hairlessness bandwagon. I believe my vulva is the new standard of sexy. #advice

oh my godddd. this has been the most talked about topic among my friends and for the past six years. we're 21 so yes, since we were 15, we've been worried. we KNOW what guys expect now and we're NOT okay with it. it's too much work, and pain, and not to mention completely goes against my feminist ideals...

It's a funny little twist I've noticed but.. from my personal experience it's made an association.. shaved is porn, hair is real life, and so as such I think pubic hair is natural and beautiful on a girl.

We talked about this in my women's studies class last semester, the class decided that it was an effort for insecure men to make women more sexually non-threatening.

I think that makes sense.

I trim mine, but I'll NEVER wax. (Too scary). When my boyfriend told me he'd like it if I didn't do anything to them, I decided that I liked him even more. :)
I guess he missed the "conditioning" day in high school. #advice

@Natalie-Marie: I don't really see the connection to threatening or non-threatening. It's more like the hair on the head for an "everyone has it" value than leg hair, the removal of which which makes more sense if you're looking at exaggerated sexual dimorphism.

I'd say that two more important influences are swim-suit styles and (most importantly) the fact that oral sex is no longer as taboo as it was. In my experience, personal preferences vary a lot more than the line about how porn is influencing expectations allows for. #advice

@lurkerbynature: High cut swim suits came in fashion in the 70s/80s and oral sex lost its taboo several decades ago.

I think "threatening" is taking it too far, but porn is the biggest influence. #advice

I have had a guy say I needed to "do something" about the my pubic hair to match his preference and I was not amused. I should have asked him if he could grow another inch...since that's what I prefer. #advice
