OT- Holy Guacamole! A Brazilian Wax!
Why do it ???????

Do you really wanna know? This may be TMI, but here goes.
Some people don't like being hairy down there. In the summer, when it's hot and you sweat, hair makes it hotter and sweatier, which is kind of icky. During that time of the month, hair makes it a lot messier. It's harder to wipe off the messy stuff when it's all stuck in your hair. Some people just like how it feels when it's smooth. I guess it's for all the same reasons many women shave their legs and their arm pits.
Plus, my partner likes it hairless. He likes how it feels when it's nice and smooth, he likes how it looks, and he doesn't like getting hair in his mouth.
Why get waxed instead of just shave? It's a kind of tricky area to shave. You can see it that well to see what you're doing, although I can sure see it better now that I've lost weight. You really don't want to nick yourself there. Shaving sometimes causes ingrown hairs, and those are kind of painful, especially in that area. And you have to shave every few days if you want to stay smooth. Getting waxes is a lot faster, you don't have to worry about missing hairs or getting ingrown hairs, and since it pulls the hairs out by their roots, it takes longer for it to grow back.

A brazillian wax is on my weight-loss bucket list. I've got a little apprehension about going all spread-eagle on a table in front of a stranger and having them...er, inspect my parts so personally. I don't know if being thinner will relieve that apprehension and self consciousness or not, but here's hoping!

I'm not sure why it doesn't bother me. I'm really sort of shy. Really.
I think I just figured, this lady has been doing this for a few years, she's seen a whole lot of them. She's not really inspecting it or judging it in any way.
Maybe it helps that for many years I worked as a nurse's aide and I bathed people and wiped their butts and stuff. It was totally not a matter of me paying attention to what their private parts looked like. I mean, I paid attention to whether they were developing bed sores on their behinds and stuff like that, but I wasn't thinking oh, this guy's butt is way bigger than that other guy's or anything like that.

Oh yeah, I know. I'm a massage therapist, and all kinds of stuff happens on the table--sometimes we see peoples' butts or boobs, sometimes guys have...er, physical reactions... and it's just business as usual. Don't pay attention, just continue working the muscles. Logically, I don't know what my deal is. I even get super uncomfortable at my gyno's office.
And funnily enough, I'm not a prude at all, and I am not reserved sexually. When it comes to sexuality, I'm not shy in the littlest bit. But get me bare outside a bedroom context, and I turn into a blushing, shrinking violet.

Me, too. I am fairly open (and even fairly adventurous) sexually, but have always been uncomfortable even having a gynecological exam. It is worse since I was assaulted, which doesn't surprise me. I even leave my underwear on when I get a massage (my MT, of course, knows that I was raped and understands that it is not in any way a reflection of my trust in him). I have had enough abdominal/pelvic surgeries (7 open surgeries and 4 lap surgeries, in the past 22 years), though, that not having underwear on in a hospital and having people check incisions doesn't bother me... but anything that requires spreading my legs is a completely different matter!
