The age-old question of whether women prefer their snatch to be perfectly groomed continues to be a source of intrigue among researchers. The latest study suggests most women, particularly those with access to such luxuries as regular waxes, like to go hairless.
Broad City’s Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer went on Jimmy Kimmel Live Thursday night to offer some expert insight into the art of procuring weed.
It's been a bad week in a series of very bad weeks for American Apparel.
Though all possible ways to feel about pubic hair have already been exhaustedly outlined, it appears that all possible options for ways to actually groom one's own pubic hair have not. Enter: "the full-bush Brazilian."
I keep saying I'm done writing or reading or thinking about the politics of body hair. I don't think the conversation should be retired — it still has merit in a feminist academic sense, and it certainly takes a financial and emotional toll on a lot of women (a burden that is not equally applied to men). But I just…
Pubic hair is the thatch of curlies that grows around your gennies and lets you know that you are a grown-up now. You can do all kinds of things with it, including but not limited to: waxing, shaving, dyeing, plucking, shaping, straightening, lasering, braiding, and nothing.
In our time, uncertainty over What Should Be Done With Our Pubes has launched one thousand feminist think pieces (and, recently, a fleet of attention-seeking merkins to an American Apparel near you). In theory, I think the aestheticization of the hairless female body is interesting and quite telling. In practice,…
This may be the most stereotypically American Apparel thing that American Apparel has ever done. A downtown Manhattan outpost now has a trio of mannequins in its window, clad in just translucent white underwear—all of them with a substantial thatch of pubic hair.
If someone is actually close enough to read your bald pussy, wouldn't they already take the hint that you want to fuck?
Candy, "the first transversal style magazine," has Lady Gaga on the cover of the Winter issue. Under a fur coat, she is wearing a mustache, a scorpion pasty, and little else.
When we last checked in with newly minted American Apparel designer Petra Collins, she was explaining in very cool terms how unsurprising the controversy over her menstruating vagina t-shirt was. But now that Instagram has deleted her account due to the same type of weird public outcry she got over her t-shirt, she's…
If there are two things I know about body hair, they're that 1) it's hair and it grows out of your body; and 2) no matter what you're doing with it, you're a terrible person. That's pretty much where my knowledge ends. Our culture's messaging on body hair is so convoluted and politicized and contradictory at this…
Crafting press releases is difficult, thankless work that often relies on flimsy pop culture references or outrageous sensationalism to grab attention. In the case of a recent press release from the British Association of Dermatologists suggesting that Carrie Bradshaw’s adventures in pube grooming have all but made…
In today's edition of Tweet Beat, Ke$ha gets livid about a lil pube, Amanda Bynes maybe doesn't want Drake to murder her vagina anymore, and Donald Trump tells us his dad's sex advice
We'll probably be discussing pubic hair until there's a nuclear apocalypse and all the hair burns off our bodies. And with our skin frying in the sun, one woman will turn to another and say, "Well, I'm dying — but at least I look tan." At least that's how it feels to read yet another article about pubic hair, how…
Let's be clear. This article — "Dear Girls, Please Shave Your Pubic Hair" — written by "Bernie B" for Thought Catalog is clickbait that's meant to make you angry. And it works! I clicked, I got mad and now I'm responding to it. It's the ciiiiiiiiiircle of internet life and it moves us all, especially if you, like me,…
As you may recall, Gwyneth Paltrow attended the Iron Man 3 premiere on Wednesday night wearing a revealing Antonio Berardi gown constructed with sheer panels. Today on Ellen, Our Lady of Goop reveals that she had to prune her ladygarden before she hit the red carpet.
In today’s creakingly slow news cycle, Reuters and TMZ, like two jackals starving in the wilderness, jumped on the same lurid story: a woman named Katherine Thurston menaced Hugh Jackman at a gym in New York City, fled, and was promptly arrested. The Reuters version is fairly prosaic — Katherine waves an electric…
Shaving and waxing the bikini area is behind the surge in cases of a viral infection that causes warts. According to experts, such grooming methods create a "micro-trauma" of the skin that raises the chance of contracting a pox virus called Molluscum contagiosum that is also sexually transmitted.
This morning on Today, while discussing personal grooming, Kathie Lee said she believes landing strips are "just wrong." Of course, she said this before finding out that bestselling author and Peabody Award-winning journalist Hoda has one. Apparently KLG just does minor grooming of her garden. But what happened after…
