Trimming Your Topiary, err…Pubic Hair

It’s bathing suit season, and according to the new TV commercials for Schick Quattro TrimStyle, it’s the time when millions of women trim the hedges and mow the lawn. Their new product which combines a razor on one end and a pubic hair trimmer on the other has been the talk of the advertising world, because of the ad’s clever use of bushes. It takes a few seconds for most people to see the connection to pubic hair, but when you get it, it’s bound to evoke either a laugh, some degree of shock, or even anger if you find it sexist. You can use these ads to talk with your partner about your grooming preferences. Millions of women prefer to go au naturale, and that’s totally fine. Don’t be pressured to wax it all off a la the characters from Sex and the City… and porn… and the creepy hairless pussy cat at the end of the “Mow the Lawn” commercial below. Many people prefer tidy or creative pubic hair styles, even if you can’t get it quite as perfect as the Edward Scissorhands hedges in these ads. It’s your personal choice, and a decision you can make with your partner. Watch the ads together to talk about how you like your bushes.
