bluebeatle_69	dont worry about what your friends say. You have no reason to shave "down there" When you grow up you can make the choice to shave down there but it is not vital to do so. You have nothing to worry about. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

LoVe&bAsKeTbAlL	yea...lol it is. peer pressure is normal about that too...but u dont have to...just be very clean and ur good to go Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

putzer	Wow, I guess I AM old! lol When I was younger the only time I heard of women shaving 'down there' was when they were having a baby or if they had crabs. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

sokokl	Yes it is normal. I didn't start shaving my pubic hairs til I was around 16. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

?	this is something that you can choose to do. but as long as you keep it clean and neat , you really dont have to bother with shaving. Also remember that you have tender areas there, and one slip with your razor can cut you, and cause infections. and scars, or can make it hurt to go the the restroom or wipe yourself after you're done. Because you can't really see everything down there unless you're in front of a mirror , you're better off not to do this at all. Like someone else said here. trimming in the bikini line and trim it up with scissors is all you'd need to do As well as combing it out to keep it free of dirt like toilet paper or during each monthly time to keep it clear of all the tangling associated with that time. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

bonnie b	this shaving thing just became popular in the last few years. don't shave if you don't want to. you can trim maybe for swim suit if you need to. i have never shaved and never will. i think it is a waste of time. i find keeping up with my legs and pits enough. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

inquirygirl	You have the right idea. Don't let peer pressure tell you to shave when you don't need to. You do not need to. Who would see it? I didn't start shaving mine until much older than you. Remember this is just one instance of peer pressure, don't let anyone make you feel that you are not cool or don't fit in because you don't participate in whatever silly fad is in style. Celebrate your uniqueness, the differences are what make us special. I say don't shave until you really want to for reasons of your own. Enjoy being you just the way you are. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

juneaulady	It is perfectly normal. If you do not want to, don't do it. You can always just trim when you wear a bathing suit. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

aqx99	Being unshaved is how nature intended it. The shaved people are the abnormal ones. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Jen L	Ewww ... you're not supposed to shave down there. It's gross and who cares? No one's gonna be looking down your underwear to see if you shave. Just leave it and be a normal person! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Trust In The Lord	I can tell you that most women do not shave down there... Unless they are a porn star or very sexually active. I'm glad to hear that you are waiting until you are married. That is the only way to go. Don't let your "friends" pressure you into anything. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

ღFreakin Fantasticღ	Honey I'm 25 years old and don't shave down there. If you ever start shaving down there you'll just have to continue because it's gonna get out of control and before you know it you'll have a wolverine between your legs. Shave around the sides so that it doesn't stick out of your bikini but other than that, screw shaving down there. Go Au Naturelle. Besides it's only guys that want you to shave becuase they are pervs. And don't have sex you're only 14! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Dani D	i dont think you should shave till your about 18...dont listen to what your friends say, its uncomfortable anyway Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

-The contributor-	yeah is normal Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

wd	Oh my gosh, at 14 you have much more to worry about than shaving your pubic area! Don't worry! Many girls are not even shaving their legs at 14! You may want to trim during summer and swimsuit season, but just because others are doing it..... lol! You're right- you're the only one right now to see it, so.... no worry! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

beebee	No of course you don't have to shave down there and the more you shave the hairy it gets. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

kitschsgirl26	Who cares about "normal", do what you feel girl it's your body! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Writer's Block	I used to shave my pubic hair, at least until I got a bunch of ingrown hairs. That really hurts, so i stopped. There is no point in shaving it unless you plan on having sex, which you dont, so... Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

?	I didn't start shaving down there until I was a full grown woman. I think it is strange young girls want to shave down there anyways. I think you should do it only when you are comfortable with it. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

sammi	ur not supposed to shave it ur just supposed to cut it a little Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Andrea H	Its normal for you not to shave if you don't want. It's really your preference. You won't be shunned if you don't. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Lsg	I'm 15 and I don't shave 'down there'. It shouldn't matter what you do or even if you shave at all. If your friends are worried about your pubic hair, maybe you should get new friends. Some guys like pubic hair, some don't. And if you don't feel like shaving it even when you're married, then don't. It's your body. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

♥ ; Empress	It is not weird at all. Even when you get married, you don't have to do it. Some women trim, some women completely shave it all off, and some don't shave at all. It all depends on what you want to do. If you find true love, he won't care whether your shaved or not. At the same time, some men do prefer a woman to at least trim, but really, it's whatever. I didn't shave down there until I was 18, and even then, I only did it for a bathing suit, not for a man! Who cares what your friends think? It's your body. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Niki	It's not abnormal to not do that and you don't have to. Also, don't let your friends pressure you into doing that. It's your body and your "private place". It's not their business. If you want to, then do it. Don't let other people tell you how to groom your pubes. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

jjjjjjjjj	You grow hair down there naturally, so unless you have a specific reason to rid yourself of it, then there is no good reason to do so. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

.	I am 53 and have never shaved my pubic hair. I think it is a stupid thing to do. When this hair grows back, you itch like a madman, and scratching in a public place is quite embarrassing. Why do you want to shave pubic hair? I don't understand this at all. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

ava	clean up your edges when your wearing a bathing suit, other than that leave it alone Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

mmm. baby <3 :D	your 14, you don't have to do that if you don't want to. some girls like their natural beauty to show, it's cool if you aren't going to have sex with anyone until your married - you'll probably be ready for that then. till then, be a kidd. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
