3 reasons your man should “manscape”

As I’m going to a pretty spectacular Black Friday ball tomorrow night, in-between basting the bird, I’m waxing the (fill in the blank). As I was poetically sugaring my limbs, I realized…it sucks men don’t have to do this.
The truth is, some do!
Shobha, NYC’s hair removal expert, reveals the top three
reasons men go bare down there:
1. To forgo the extra ‘five o’clock shadow’ and opt for a
longer-lasting, smoother solution.
2. To minimize hair and maximize the appearance of other ‘parts.’
3. To enjoy hairless happiness – men can hate body hair as much as
women.
So, I must ask: Do any of you ladies have a man in your life who “manscapes”? How do you feel about that???

Ha! My Schmoogie is far too hairy to do any “manscaping”. I’ve dated guys with less hair on their heads than he has on his back… so waxing is completely out of the question (he also has the pain tolerance of an 8-year-old girl).
I think it’s a good idea in theory – but I had a boyfriend who was obsessed with it and spent more time in the bathroom than I did try to eradicate hair on various bodyparts. And I have to admit, I thought the stubble and absence of hair was less attractive than the hair itself! Trimming in moderation, I think, is the best course in most cases.
I personally think manscaping is a no-no. Don’t we want our men to be a little manly? They use enough products as it is – I wanna be the fairer sex!
I think if a woman has to spend time and money on grooming down there, i think a man should have to do the same! If your man doesn’t like the idea of pain there is a product I heard about on the radio that is pain-free, it is hair dye for your pubic hair! There are regular colors like black and brown and crazy colors like pink and blue. I think the website is http://www.bettybeauty.com
I manscape. Yep, shave the tool, stomach, back and I trim the rest short to make it look uniform. I have done it for years. It doesn’t make me less of a man. Just a man who likes to trim his body hair. It exposes my muscular body and most of all I like it.
wel I’m a manscaper !!! i have a wide veriaty of clients from swimmers ,body bouilders and those in the entertainment industry , If a woman can get a bikini and or a brazilian done why can’t a man ? why can’t he look good ? do you really think micheal philps is that smooth natrually think again , so to those of youthat do get it done and take pride in your looks and health GOOD for you well done and those of you that don’t ….oh well
Any real man would not do any of this. This is the further emasculation of men. A light trim down there is fine, anything more and you probably are interested in dating only men.
