I’ve been a fan of your magazine for quite some time, and have noticed that from time to time you answer emails from people about certain subjects. I have a taboo question, which I am nearly too ashamed to ask, but I must knowing that this magazine is about breaking taboos, I was wondering: is there a respectful and classy way to inquire about the pubic grooming of woman? how does one inquire if their special someone trims the hedges if you are not in that stage of your relationship yet? or even if you are just interested in each other platonically? It would be a big help if you could answer this question for me promptly, and the curiosity is overwhelming me, and I am not trying to put any of my relationships in jeopardy. –Anti-Bush
This is just one reason why women should be naked all over the internet. Let me tell you, no one ever wonders if a certain Suicide Girl shaves or not. Maybe try using that site for a dating service? Actually, I don’t recommend that. Let me come up with an actual answer for you.
It’s not uncommon for men or women to have preferences, and some are not as easy to observe than others. In this case, bluntly asking someone if they mow the lawn is a tricky matter. First, how much do you care? Is this a one night stand situation, because if that’s the case, you really can’t expect the perfect mate. I’m not a fan of this plan of action for obvious reasons, and would suggest the old saying of “beggars can’t be choosers.”
However, if this is a girl you’ve been talking to for a little bit now, and are curious to see where it could go, I’d say to ask in jest. Maybe make a comment of whether you’re into it or not. This is depending on how comfortable you are, and in my opinion, if you can’t even jokingly talk about pubes, maybe you shouldn’t be having sex with this person, know what I’m sayin’? Honestly, more people should be talking about sex with one another. Pubes included. The best approach is just to be confident about it. Start talking about what you’re into. Example: “Adrien Brody was hot before he grew a beard. Now he looks like a really scrawny lumberjack. I’m not really into beards.” Now, just use this with pubes! Think of a movie that had WAY too much lady bush. Um, OH! Eva Green in The Dreamers! “I was watching The Dreamers the other day, and Eva Green is really cute, but man, she had a lot going on down there. I prefer a well trimmed zone.” TA DA!
If the chick is a total hippie, she’ll get all crazy defensive and be like “I’M PROUD OF MY BUSH! VIVA LA PUBES!” and then you’ll have your answer. Most level headed chicks that are open to discussion will then give their opinion. I think this is probably the best approach. It’s definitely better than “I wanna fuck you, but not if you’ve got a badger in your pants.”
