bikini wax

Wax Tales Prepare to cringe: A 31-year-old woman in Brisbane, Australia says that she contracted peeling burns in her "intimate areas" after a disastrous Brazilian bikini wax. The aesthetician who allegedly botched the waxing session had to be prompted to close the blinds and asked the customer how to do the wax when the customer complained that she was burning her. Uh, woman to woman: if you are unfamiliar with something that involves you putting anything hot (and painful) near a vagina, you should just not do it. Like, ever. [News.com.au]

Tyra Banks Gives Bow Wow A Creepy Sex Talk


Tyra might actually be suffering from the writers' strike because she only had one new episode last week. However, she's been known to be a scab before. During the last strike, she decided to go on with ANTM without writers. But the one new episode she did manage to air last week was sort of wonderfully disgusting: She asked Eve, Dita Von Teese, Bow Wow and Omarion questions about sex, and then had Bow Wow sit on her lap while she gave him a truly bizarre sex talk that led me to wonder if she's ever actually had sex at all. Oprah on the other hand, had an interesting week — very enlightening discussions with Dr. Oz about bikini waxes, kegel exercises and douching — and as for The View, well, Sherri Shepherd is an idiot asshole. Clip of Tyra/Oprah above, and more on Sherri after the jump. More »

Benny, The Bikini-Waxed Intern: Hot New Internet Hunk

Remember Benny from yesterday? The guy who we convinced to get his bikini-line waxed? We'll we're psyched to see that Benny got such positive responses in the comments section of the video of his ordeal. You guys totally wanna bone him!
Dude, he is HOT. And totally my type.
Seriously, he's so cute I'd mud-wrestle you ladies for him. C'MON, WENCHES!
I'd let him touch it.

SOOOOO CUTE. is there a date benny contest?
He so deserves to get some love for being such a good sport. Also, remember when he asked if he was bleeding and I said "no"? He so was. (I didn't want him to puke though.) Anyway, I linked his Facebook profile and was curious as to how many of you actually reached out to touch someone. After the jump, Benny breaks it down for us. More »

what it feels like to be a girl

Benny The Tech Geek Gets A Bikini Wax


For our new series, "What It Feels Like To Be A Girl," we'll be filming men going through some of the more agonizing experiences that women put themselves through. (Suggestions? Send them our way.) First up: Benny, an intern from our geeky, big brother blog Gizmodo. Benny was not only brave enough to agree to get a full bikini wax — which included his sack and crack — but have both myself and Gawker Media's Richard Blakeley commit it to video. (At one point, the poor guy was so lightheaded from the experience that he thought he'd faint.) Good news, though: Not only does Benny have a newly-smooth ballsack, he's single and new to NYC. Ladies, you know you'd lick it. More »

the wrong kind of bleeding

An Open Apology to Our Labia

Every so often, there comes along a tale of the rites of female passage gone so terribly wrong that one is left trembling. I'm not talking about any of the fictitious tripe some unpaid Cosmo intern spit out for the "Confessions" column—I'm talking about the true-life horrors of that wildly popular version of genital mutilation known as The Brazilian. Not that I'm above dutifully visiting my doting waxer (what up, Maya!) every few weeks, spreading my legs and asscheeks with glee as she efficiently rips out my lady-hair until I'm shiny and bald like a fetus. I don't know when having public hair became the more exotic option, but ever since the first de-furring, I've been fully in favor of seeing my labia looking happy and oh-so-smooth. And yet, there is danger! An inexperienced waxer can cause mental anguish or, worse, serious physical trauma. None of us are immune, and no one is safe. (Even my own over-aggressive usage of Folisan too soon after an otherwise perfect wax can cause first-degree burns. Have you ever peeled dead flesh off of your ladyflower? Highly recommend it.) Anyhow: Isn't it about time we all apologize to our sensitive bits? Take, for example, the following from a reader, a journalist who ended up leaving her labia behind in the emergency room:
