    Is this true that most gay guys shave or trim there pubic areas like there are pits and penis hairs? I don't think straight guys do it much but I heard that gay guys do it more. I do shave mine since I hate to have it grow all the way. I have never in my life let my pubic hairs grow fully. It's always been trimmed or shaved. But maybe a lot of guys that are straight also trim or shave there hairs I don't know though.

    Very rarely can you ever say that "most" of one group of people do anything, haha.
    That stands very true with gay guys and pubic hair.

    I know gay guys that shave their pubic and armpit hair. I know straight guys that do the exact same.

    I know gay guys (myself and my boyfriend included) who prefer to just keep their hair trimmed so it's nice and neat. Likewise, a lot of straight guys do this. Shaving your hair completely is a lot of work, in my opinion.

    And I know both straight and gay guys who let it grow!

    It just depends what works for you. You also might be influenced by a relationship you're in.

    Trimming is way easier for me. Shaving... is a pain haha. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    It all depends on your personal preferences. I used to shave it but couldn't stand the itch so I took Frozen's advice and "Let It Go"

    I think you mixed up your Disney films. You meant 'Tangled'.

    More seriously though I suck at growing body hair and have very little. I shave everything for swimming though. I've gotten used to it well enough that I would probably do it if I didn't swim.

    I know plenty of people at both ends of the spectrum, from totally natural to completely shaved. It's really up to you.

    I don't think sexual orientation comes into it. For me trimming (not shaving) is about comfort and hygiene as much as anything else.

    Body hair continues to grow well beyond puberty - I know that for a fact. Personally, I like to keep things under control.

    There are some men who believe trimming/shaving pubic hair gives the appearance of a bigger penis. I'm sure that's a deciding factor for some men, straight, gay or bi.

    I agree, but it is up to the person on what they wish to do :slight_smile:

    I prefer to shave my balls and keep everything else trimmed/short, and my boyfriend tends to have his the same way. I'm sure you'll see pubs of all varieties among straight men, gay men, bi men, etc. Same for women too. Style of pubic hair has no relation to sexual orientation.

    I and my boyfriend both keep ours trimmed. I do mine because it's much easier to keep tidy, and I know that I much prefer when I'm with him to be able to have a smooth surface to enjoy rather than getting hair in my face. That being said, it's down to personal preference. Nobody is going near my armpit hair, although I'm debating shaving chest hair as it's more of a disappointing smattering of hair rather than a rug :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I tend to shave and/or trim when I'm with someone for hygiene and for respect for my partner. I don't think anyone should have to shave though.

    I dont think anyone should have to do anything they dont want to. But ibdont think pubic grooming is that big a deal. And if a partner asks because theyd like I think a person shoukd atkeast do it for them occasionally if not regularly. I mean this person is giving you themselves in the most intimate way. If they want you to do some weed whacking then I dont think its that big a deal.

    It's not a sexuality thing at all. Straight guys can shave clean, gay guys can have fuzzy hairs, and variety exists in women too.

    I just happen to be doing this. But if being seen wasn't an issue I'd remove it all from my body (excluding my hair-hair obviously)

    In my gym 90% of guys (presumably straight - since they're always talking about women) shave their pubes completely. Personally I shave my balls because I like the feeling, but I don't shave my pubes, it makes me feel like a child :wink:
