I shave around but not everywhere. I get rid of the hair by the clit area to avoid nastiness during oral, but I don't care for the upkeep or the appearance of a totally shaven look.
Bad smell? Not sure that hair would cause more of a bad smell, although I suppose it's possible if you sweat a lot and it sticks to the hair.
Shaved is definitely better for both, I watch my wife shave when we r in the shower together and I usually cant resist eatin her out right then and there, and we finish with her bend over holding onto the vanity and I pound away.
I usually shave the hair off once a week but it grows back pretty quick. Btw, it didn't itch nearly as much as everyone said it would when I first completely shaved it. It's actually really comfortable unless you're shaving too much.
Although I don't shave(and I probably never will), I hate when during a mastubating session, my cum tends to get caught in my pubic hair lol. I hate that so much, and its a pain to get it out. So, I can only masturbate standing up because if I mastubate sitting down, my cum rolls down into my hair, and i really don't feel like cleaning it up. This is probably why I only masturbate in the shower now lol. But I still have to stand up anyway lol.
You should shave it to be clean. Check http://sexualhealthmatters.blogspot.com/2008/05/trimming-shaving-of-pubic-hair.html
i like to shave and love it when my gf shaves would love her to have a VCH and have electrolasis would love that yum
I like a full bush, I don't shave personally though I am willing if a girl wants me to, though I like seeing a girl with a full bush, that or trimmed; also like the female poster said earlier I wouldn't mind if a girl shaved the area by the cllit.
I prefer a female to trim it and leave a little strip...it looks sexier. As long as its not a jungle down there, I don't mind some hair though.
i shave my bikini line (to a nice triangular shape) and trim all over so it's like 1/2 inch short. lots of hair is a turn off for me. guys gotta trim that shit up! a couple of years ago, i shaved it ALL OFF! and it looked stupid and i will never do it again. i felt like i was 10! or an alien! i know i didn't have sex until it grew back. haha funny in retrospect!
my bush is beautiful. i trim it to keep it undercontrol, but if i shaved it all off my boyfriend would be hella bummed.
