Your Question:

Dear Experts,

Do you have to shave your pubic hairs before you have sex?

kingO06



The Answer:

Dear kingO06,

No. Whether someone chooses to shave, trim, or remove body hair is ultimately a personal choice, and it's usually done for cosmetic reasons. If people choose to trim their body hair, the amount they decide to remove is up to them.

Hope this information helps!

Take care,
