So where do we stand today as women regarding our public hair?  Are we liberated and making choices for ourselves or are we still trimming shaping and cutting under the pressure of others?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Image on left by <a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/users\/pexels-2286921\/?utm_source=link-attribution&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=image&amp;utm_content=1869745\">Pexels<\/a> from <a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/\/?utm_source=link-attribution&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=image&amp;utm_content=1869745\">Pixabay<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Our pubic hair has a meaningful role, for female-identifying people but actually for some male-identifying people too.  But the question does arise as to what we do and why?  Also,  how many of the decisions we make are our own or from peer pressure?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">The stop in shaving to let hair coalesce into its natural form, as much as getting rid of any sign of public hair, leg hair and underarm hair is very much part of a body-positive, hair-positive movement that juxtaposes the silky skin, hairless ideals that have shaped very much the last few years approaches to bodily hair. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">This simple choice can be interpreted in many a way.  Is it a protest against the patriarchy?  peer pressure? a defiant political statement? or even because of the use of plastic in many razors it&#8217;s an environmental act against plastic pollution?  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">For some women being fully shaved is shunned as it is associated with both pornography and child sexual abuse. Whilst for others it&#8217;s a liberation and a form of hygiene. For some it is a bush for others that term still sounds like it is deliverd by men and so prefer the staright talking words of public hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Whatever your current choice the story of <em>public hair, lady gardens bushes<\/em> or whatever term you feel comfortable with has a long history<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">From the earliest of days, hair removal has been a trend.  The Egyptians pioneered the development of hair removal tools such as tweezers and razors whilst in the middle ages hair removal was slightly less common because there were more problematic things to deal with such as pestilence and plague.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">However, in some regions, a fresh shave even became a symbol of prostitution, prompting women of higher classes to leave their hair natural.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Renaissance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">The Renaissance era refocused on class and status, with a greater consensus that women\u2019s pubic hair must go. One popular yet very scary hair technique involved boiling arsenic and quicklime and applying it to the hair. Women had to be careful to remove the solution not only&nbsp;<em>after<\/em>&nbsp;the hair had been burned away but&nbsp;<em>before<\/em>&nbsp;the flesh was burned, too.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Women who opted to keep their hair were viewed as overly masculine, and in some cases, filthy. Art and greater society had yet to shy away from the nude form, so quite personal choices became publicly scrutinized.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">In the 1800s, \u201cideal femininity\u201d  involved cinched waists, long dresses, and submission.  Class came into play again as some women of wealthier classes shaved their armpits, but most opted out. because of certain strict religious movements, conversations and attention toward anything of a sexual nature was very much avoided&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, there were some exceptions, in the 17th and 18th centuries, lovers would occasionally present locks of their pubic hair as souvenirs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">The 20th Century saw a paradigm shift.  Legs and armpits were on show publically and the invention of a women&#8217;s razor meant hardcore rhetoric from producers to compel women to shave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">By the time the 1960s came along pretest was back in fashion and so was armpit hair which became a hallmark of activism and support for the Civil Rights and the antiwar movements.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">In the 1970s electrolysis, an electric hair removal technique was born and by the mid-1990s, any remnants of pubic hair positivity from the \u201960s had all but been erased. Being hair-free was an expectation, not a freedom of choice, an almost cultural pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">However, it is important to point out at this point, that these fashions <em>to the bush or not to bush <\/em>as such have been applied in main to women and products to aid removal or condition public hair have been made and sold to the female market.  Yet its fair to say most men also have public hair, without having a plethora of products bombarded via the media at them and the social pressure on how they look after there is in no way reminiscent of the pressure put on female populations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The Wilkinsons Sword Intuition Range<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">From body hair removal to styling eyebrows,  a wide variety of products in the portfolio that will give hair removal more options and help leave skin feeling nouriched.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wilkinsonsword.com\/products\/intuition-complete-bikini-razor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">INTUITION COMPLETE BIKINI RAZOR AND TRIMMER<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Screenshot-2022-07-27-at-18.04.40.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"580\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Screenshot-2022-07-27-at-18.04.40.png?resize=580%2C667&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-115177\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Screenshot-2022-07-27-at-18.04.40.png?w=682&amp;ssl=1 682w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Screenshot-2022-07-27-at-18.04.40.png?resize=261%2C300&amp;ssl=1 261w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">A 5-blade razor and trimmer in one which allows you to trim and shave with one tool.

As we emancipate ourselves from the pressures of public hair fashions and it becomes more of a personal choice for women, maybe now is the time to express the need for trimers for mens public hair?  Becuase as long these old fashion  myths that relate too much to gender,  pubic hair will continue to be woven (excuse the pun) into damaging sterotypes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
