    In reply to Kendra: "I Am A Waxing Virgin"; The Rest Of The World: "Huh?"
    Is this post deliberately disingenuous? There are myriad ways to remove pubic hair other than waxing. Besides shaving, there are depilatory creams such as Nair, sugaring, electrolysis, and lasering. There is no contradiction between not having pubic hair and never having been waxed.



    Also, a little FYI for some commenters: the vagina is an internal organ. You do not wax your vagina. You might wax your mons pubis, your labia majora, your perineum, but not your vagina. There is more to your genitalia than the part that a man sticks his dick in. I honestly consider it patriarchal to not call these things by their right names. We'd never call a penis an epididymis by mistake, or call a testicle a urethra. That kind of ignorance would be considered exasperating or laughable.

    Not sure if she actually is a "waxing virgin", but Kendra is one of us blonde nordic types, which probably means she is fairly hairless in most places. I have never had to wax and shaving has been enough for years.

    Not to mention the nude pics, but when she met Hef she was a naked body painted girl at a playboy party. Wouldn't you need to be completely smooth to get body painted? Or do they wear underwear when they do it?

    Maybe by "waxing virgin," she meant that she had never had sex with a Lumiere, the anthropomorphic candlestick from Disney's animated adaptation of Beauty and the Beast.

    Waxing virgin? Hasn't Kendra been in Playboy a couple of times? I thought the era of bush in those mags were over. I would think waxing for centrefolds...hell even models would be common practice.

    @PreposterousHypothesis: Playboy showed boobs and carefully veiled nethers when they first started. Penthouse showed actual bush in the early '70s. Hustler was the first more-or-less mainstream magazine to start "showing pink" in the late '70s-early '80s, and that led to more and more depilation into the mid-'80s. Waxing as a common thing beyond porn became more-or-less popular in the mid '90s.



    Thank you, Susie Bright and your awesome porn class at UCSC!

    @la.donna.pietra: And yet, one of my favorite quotes about pornography of all time, from Norman Rush's 1991 novel (and set ten years earlier), "Mating" mentions that the vogue for wank-mags is a woman with "the breasts of a wet-nurse and the escutcheon of an adolescent."



    I think the waxing to a thin strip came in earlier.

    I shave.



    And I can say, you don't get Playboy-style down there via shaving, or else I'm just missing out on some techniques (if this is the case, INFORM ME OF THEM kthx). I wish I was brave enough to get waxed down under, and it's not the pain I fear, but rather the fact that they'll see my crotch and my 'bush' and I'm terrified of being abnormal when it comes to that area.



    Also: hot wax + vadge = NOGOOD.

    @karmasutra (can haz bigger star than youz?): I wouldn't think shaving could get those results either. Any faithful viewer of The Girls Next Door (...um, so I've been told) could tell you she was very, very hairless.



    Also, I think a professional waxer will probably have seen every kind of bush/crotch combo under the sun. I really wouldn't worry.

    @mbot says Spock yeah!: but that doesn't make 'em classy people. When I was a teenager, my sister's husband had a salon, and the waxer lady there would talk shit about people's areas all day long. Ever since then, I've never been able to take that leap of faith in a stranger to behave and not talk shit. "OMG you shoulda seen her bush. OMG what a set of labia." I'm not making this up, either. It scared and scarred me. No more strangers in the crothcal area for me.

    @femputer: OMG! That is horrifying! Most women aren't exposed to a lot of other hoo-has on a regular basis. The hoo' is a secret place. My overall consensus is that there's a lot of variation, just like there are with boobs and nipples.



    That said, JUST like boobs, there is a certain "look" that's considered "normal." But it's an illusion. Then again ... I guess a waxer lady would have a decent understanding of the spectrum. Hmm.

    @BlondeGoddess: Ugh, yeah. Sometimes I get impatient in the "growing out" phase and shave, and I regret it a few hours later.



    It is kind of weird having a non-doctor, non-lover get all down in your bush, but I squint and bear it, and it's over soon enough and I'm good to go for a month. Spaciba, Nadia!



    I'm curious about lasering/pulsing light or some sort of permanent solution. I figure it would be cost-effective in the long run. Has anyone done this? What's the pain factor, how many sessions?
