Eep

Soooo I have about zero experience with sex. I've made out with guys, and that's it, until now.

Recently, I just started sort of maybe kind of seeing this boy, and we've been fooling around. It's all fine and dandy and lovely, except for the fact that I'm kind of self conscious about my pubic hair. I don't trim or shave or wax or anything, since I've never had a need to before, and now I'm super worried he's going to think I'm super gross or hairy.

This is exacerbated by the fact that every time we start getting intense and a little more "hands-on" with the making out, he says that he really wants to go down on me. He's probably said this a million times now, and I am so freaked out that if I say yes he'll be totally squicked out by the hair.

I'm not THAT hairy of a person: it's not like a jungle down there or anything, but I just want to trim and make it a little neater, but I have NO IDEA how to or where to even begin or what it's supposed to look like.




...so, yes, this is my neurotic, over-thinking side showing through. Help?

/tl;dr

shaving is a pain in the ass. I started shaving about 4 months ago, and I am starting to think I need a new option because I hate the stubble and the redness (my skin is super sensitive). Electric razor-ing I have heard good things about, so I may try that next...

or if I get the guts I will wax. (ow).

I shave most of the pubic area, leaving a strip over the middle. The strip I keep trimmed down to the contours of my body shape. I just do this because if I let it grow out I really AM a bloody jungle. :P I basically just think about what it would be like to go down on me, and trim/shave accordingly.

I used to shave and let me tell you dove deoderant is like a goddess. After you shave if you put it on you won't get redness or bumps. It is amazing!

That being said being jungle can be awesome too!
