Those who prefer their nether regions smooth and hairless may want to rethink their grooming habits.

People who regularly trim or remove their pubic hair may be more at risk for sexually transmitted infections, according to a new study published in the journal Sexually Transmitted Infections on Monday.


quote:

The findings come from a survey of 7,580 U.S. residents ages 18-65 about their grooming habits, sexual behaviors and history of sexually transmitted infections.

The study defined high-frequency grooming as those who partake in daily or weekly grooming and extreme grooming as those who remove all pubic hair more than 11 times a year.

According to the survey, 74% of participants reported grooming their pubic hair in the past.

Extreme groomers were almost four times more likely to report having an STI than non-groomers.


quote:

The high frequency and extreme groomers were also more likely to report a greater number of sexual partners and more frequent sex.

While the study does not prove there is a link between shaving and STI, it does question whether small tears from shaving or waxing may make it easier for sexually transmitted infections to take hold.

That's because they're probably 4x more likely to get laid.

This is the correlation. Not the grooming habits.

It's like saying that Ferrari owners are 10x more likely to have their cars detailed than F-150 owners.

Scorch/Shave/Trim your bush.

No excuses. if your razor bites add a guard or get a new razor.

There is also a feminist movement that is against shaving arm pit hair and other parts calling it sexist to be required to do so.

I am equally against all nonshaving members of society. Unless you are a dude who rocks a beard...some dudes just look better with them.(I don't but plenty do.)#nohomo

That is a funny way to word it. Shaving pubic hair doesn't cause STIs.

I'm old.Never had sex with a Woman with a shaved pussy.

My buddy,since kindergarten,gets Viagra from a mutual friend that's an RN and evidently a Sex Addict.Orders Viagra by the hundreds.

My buddy told me that our friend told him that he shaves all his body hair off.Smooth.Like a Seal.

eta: Off subject but I split a Viagra with the GILF last week and it induced some Tantric(sp) Sex.She wants more.

Damn, you are old. It's cool and all but it gets a little boring. I've been converted to liking a well manicured bush. Gots to have some hair on that thang.
