Having strong European genes has made hair removal one of the biggest challenges in my life. Earning a university degree? Yeah, whatever. It doesn’t compare to the in depth research I’ve done regarding Nair, wax strips, five bladed razors, bleach, shaving creams, and hair removal aftercare. I am still waiting for my tax rebate to ...

Most of us agree that campaigns aimed at spreading awareness and raising money for cancer research are positive. Most of us will also agree that the Julyna campaign is going a bit too far in the name of publicity. Julyn‘s mission is: To increase awareness of cervical cancer, and to promote healthy lifestyle choices in ...

Well isn’t this interesting. The clothing company with the skeeziest pedigree has embraced the bush. Does this mean that the famous perv Dov Charney wants to strike a blow for women’s lib? Does he want to do some fancy footwork to repair his tarnished image? Nope. He’s just riding the wave, because bush has been ...

We’ve written before about how the bush is back. Before it was just a trend but now the Authorities on the subject have declared it to be so. Who are these experts? Porn stars, naturally. The last episode of Entourage included a fully nude Sasha Grey with a full bush. Because genital fashion always follows ...

Listen guys, I’m going to let you in on a little secret. Draw your curtains and lock your door. I don’t want your girlfriend to find out about this. Ready? It’s not worth it. Stop the manscaping, the bicep curls and for god-sakes leave your genitals alone.

I am a human being who happens to be a woman. This means, like all other human beings (close to 7 billion of us!), I have body hair. So why are people so afraid of women’s body hair?

Pubic hair is shocking. Proper ladies don’t have it, assuming it shows a lack of hygiene and general slothfulness. It’s also just so damn messy. However in a recent photo shoot for French Vogue, Crystal Renn proves that it is also just so damn sexy. [NSFW] Pubic hair was disappearing. It went from the wild ...

There are a lot of reasons to hate the new movie, The Back-up Plan. The plot looks ridiculous, the couple has no chemistry and J-Lo is trying to play the sweet and approachable girl next door. But when I saw the trailer it was four little words that had me dead set against the film: ...

The Daily Mail slammed this unshorn celebrity for a lack of personal grooming. “Strangely the 42-year-old had well pedicured, smooth feet complete with newly-applied nail varnish, but had neglected to tend to the hair on her legs.” Who had the gall hide her shame under a golden dress?

It hurts to be beautiful, my mother told me when I was five, pulling my hair into a ponytail. But since then more is required to maintain society’s status quo. While a man can look fine dashing out of the house in 20 minutes, a woman looks like she’s about to scrub the tub. When ...
