Shaving down below isn't a simple request. Removing pubic hair is either painful, or very time-consuming, or extremely expensive (for laser removal). Furthermore, with shaving and waxing there are health risks.

Shaving Or Waxing Pubic Hair Increases Risk Of Viral Infection - Medical News Today

Bikini Waxing Dangers: 5 Health Risks To Consider

(I came across dozens of articles, many on medical sites, and they all say the same thing.)

Asking someone to shave/pluck/wax/ laser their pubes is a different order of magnitude from being asked to wear his favourite sexy dress, asking him to wear your fav shirt, or to do it on a bear rug.

Nothing selfish about not giving in to extreme demands.

This is what you get for asking a forum with a bunch of middle aged women who think preferences are wrong.
Preferences aren't wrong. "Preference" just shouldn't = "demand."

This is not a double standard I'm trying to impose but its a huge turn off and I wouldn't even consider going down on her with its current state. How can I bring this up in a pleasant way to express my preferences without hurting her feelings?
LOL you would not have got much action in the 70's.

Edit: Srsly though, you should offer to shave her as a foreplay game.

Your cleaning routine after shaving also matters in preventing itch issues. I usually bathe/shower after shaving, and wash the shaved area with warm water. I also pat the shaved area with a towel after showering instead of rubbing it.

Key point is to go easy on shaved skin.
It's HELL when it begins growing in (something I experienced when I was very young after they shaved me prior to surgery for a broken femur). The itching was worse than the post-op pain.

If it's that important to a partner (or either sex), then let the one making the request pay for his/her partner to go to the best laser hair removal specialist in the nearest major city. (For me that would mean a trip to London or Paris.)

LOL. I became an adult in the 1970s when a natural full bush was the standard and it never scared anyone away.

P.S. If you are getting a mouthful of hair when you do this maneuver, either you are doing it wrong or your girlfriend belongs in the book of world records.

Ha! I was thinking this, too. If he's getting a mouthful of hair he's in the wrong place.

Ridiculous it is....and yet these kids are programmed with an upside down reality. I shake my head every time I see a thread like this because there is nothing more beautiful and exciting than a full bush.

Or he's just enjoying an appetizer on the way.

~~ It's not all about you! If you want it baby smooth than you pay the fee to have it done and up kept every six weeks...Shaving a *****, needs be done daily, most end up with ingrown hairs skin rashes, bumps skin irritating from the skin rubbing against the other person.Plus men who shave down under feel like your bedding a porcupine half the time...Not saying you can't trim, clean it up a bit..There a reason why you have pubic hair...
