    Trim? Shave? All natural? How do the men of OT upkeep their private gardens?

    I feel that it is a bit hypocritical to expect my woman to keep it smooth down below if I don't manage myself somehow. I have tried many different things, from using a beard trimmer to keep it trimmed to lathering and shaving it all off. One problem I run into though is how to keep the coin purse smooth. I don't trust myself with a razor down there, and electric trimmers really hurt when they catch some skin (and never get it as close as I would want). Using a razor on the rest is no problem, but I feel I would end up a bloody mess if I tried to shave the ol' scrote, and I have heard from a friend that Nair can burn.

    Any tips or tricks?

    I just buzz it with my beard trimmer and the shortest guard that comes with it, although lately I've just let it go because I'm getting zero f***ing action even though I'm seeing someone?

    I don't bother - I don't understand this trend of anti body hair that has been going on. I don't like my wife looking like a 10 year old girl, don't get that at all.........

    I will trim, but I don't buzz.


    My legs, chest and stomach are hairy enough to where buzzed would just look stupid. I don't mess with the torso portions. I'm a guy. Plus, while some women don't like body hair, others find it very masculine.

    I've trimmed down there a few times, gets a bit itchy. I'm not opposed to doing it but no need to perform this on a regular basis.

    I am going to do some laser on my back an shoulders and neck because I keep a buzz cut on the ol' head. Those areas grow much faster than my thinning head hair so I look strange without a shirt and with t-shirt collars.

    I take a scissor to the bush when it gets out of control...... Shave the sac and under with a razor. My brother took a shower at my place and asked why I had 2 razors. I said one is for my face and one is for........... and he stopped me right there and said, Whoaaa Whooaaaa I don't want to know.

    I don't think that going completely bare is desirable, but keeping the yard mowed is good. Cleaner, better looking, makes your junk look bigger. Sort of like the difference between a scraggly hobo beard and a nicely trimmed goatee.

    this is definitely a valid argument. reasonably trimmed...you are a man, not a per-pubescent boy or grizzly bear.

    I just keep it trimmed enough that I don't feel like I'm looking down on Buckwheat smoking a cigar.

    Manscaping isn't mentioned until the 3rd page (out of 4 pages). The fact of the matter is the thread itself was started to discuss womens privates, not mens. Just because ball-shaving was talked about in it does not change that fact. I could prob find something about ball shaving in the "Official Homo Thread", but that doesn't mean I am not going to create a thread dedicated to the specific topic. If it bothers you, don't post. My post is definitely not a repost since there was no thread started on the basis of discussing mens ball grooming rituals before this one.

    I have a dedicated beard trimmer but the battery is really old and doesn't hold a charge so I have to plan manscaping sessions at least 8 hours in advance.

    I feel lighter after trimming and besides, no girl needs extra floss during sexy time. :p

    I can't bring myself to use a razor on my sac...

    I generally attack the area with clippers to get it as short as possible.

    As for the rest of me- the hair on my shoulders, chest and back gets pretty long. I trim that down without any attachments. The wife does my back...
