Over the past five years, I’ve been really happy to see more and more guys take up the charge to trim, shave and sculpt their pubic area. Now, I’m not averse to hairy guys, but there is something that triggers my anal retentive gene when I have a dark haired guy over for some fun and, as he strips and pulls off his underwear, he’s got an almost laser straight treasure trail, a neatly trimmed pubic area (sometime even creatively trimmed can be even COOLER!), a shaved nut sac, and a completely hairless asshole. There’s just something very “neat and tidy” about the whole thing, and it’s a relief to know that you won’t be choking on an abundance of pubic hair during oral sex, nor will you accidentally yank out a hair (or dozen) that, for all intents and purposes, is in one of the most sensitive areas of the male body. Accidental denuding can be a rather painful mood killer, let me assure you.
I have two male friends that regularly practice “manscaping” themselves, though for completely different reasons. Ironically, they both have the same name, so for the sake of discretion and to protect the innocent and all that, let’s just call them “Mike #1″ and “Mike #2″, to make describing them easier. Mike #1 is a nice guy who is a unrepentant freeballer. I don’t think he even owns a pair of underwear. He’s mentioned to me that since he goes around sans underwear, he likes to keep his pubes trimmed and his balls shaved so that no hairs catch on his jeans or pants. He’s not at all hirsute, with a light dusting of chest hair, a nice treasure trail and only slightly hairy legs. He’s an AXE Body Spray man, and though I am usually not a fan of AXE Body Spray, I have to admit that it smells pretty good on him. I do think it’s amazing that, no matter how long he’s been working or whatever, when he gets up close and nekkid with me, he has practically no body odor to speak of and smells pretty much shower fresh. I’m rather envious of this, as I seem to exude a musky smell not 30 minutes after I finish scrubbing myself in the shower.
Mike #1 usually has his pubes trimmed into a neat triangle about 1/8″ above his cock, his balls are shaved completely hairless, but he stops the shaving at his taint and leaves the hair around his hole untouched. Mike#1 is a straight guy who I met while he was on hiatus with one of his girlfriends. He likes to come over, strip down, watch some porn, and “have his idol worshipped” (his cute euphemism for oral sex.)
I met Mike #2 a few years ago, right before Christmas. His girlfriend had left to go back home for the Christmas holiday, leaving Mike to his own devices, which, at the time, apparently included going online to look for some NSA oral sex and for someone he could have a “420 adventure.” Not one to partake of 420 (I feel more and more like a teetotaler all the time, since I rarely drink and haven’t ever done any kind of recreation drugs.), I was, however, glad to help him out with the sex part. I went over to his place and, after some small-talk and some good old-fashioned male techno-bonding over his brand new, pimped to the max computer (it was a really freakin’ nice computer!) we stripped and got down to it. Mike #2 is one of those guys who never work out and who smokes, but has a slim, perfectly toned body with the slight hint of a six-pack. He lowered his body hugging boxer briefs (I had him pegged as a fairly straightforward boxers man, so I was surprised to see him in boxer-briefs) and I was shocked to see almost no hair at all underneath. I remarked on it and he said that he had to keep himself shaved clean, that his girlfriend demanded it of him, because she liked to fuck his hairless ass with a strap-on.
Ever have one of those nights where you ask a simple question and the answer you get is so completely out of left field that you wonder if you are even playing on the same field? This was one of those night, for sure. Can you just imagine the look on my face? It must have been priceless! It makes me think that I really need to work on my poker face, because I’m sure that Mike #2 would have told me that mine really sucked.
So, upon closer inspection of his privates, I noticed he’d left a little square of hair just above his dick (a Hitler pub-stache). I mentioned that he did a good job on his balls and ass, as they were squeaky clean and utterly hairless. He smiled and said that she’d helped him get the hair around his asshole with a razor. He was playing with my dick at the time and added that he was thinking that it might be hot to have anal sex, too, as he wanted to see what a real live dick felt like up there, since all he had been accustomed to up to that point was her strap-on. So, being a generous friend, I helped him out with that request later on that evening, and then twice again during the Easter break and four more times during the summer holiday as well. He seemed to like the real thing quite a lot!
Now, as I delved more deeply into the realm of manscaping, I decided to take a minute out and see what the pros were doing, so I grabbed a stack of DVDs to see what the latest look was for guys in the wonderful world of porn. I was surprised to see porn star punk boi Kris Slater modeling one of the more unique shaving creations, with a upside-down “Y” cut that began at his treasure trail and ended on either side of his dick. Lanky James Deen’s trims his short overall, and completely shaves for about 1/2″ on all sides of his rather long penis. Beefcake boi Mikey Butters has a wide, trimmed triangle of hair around his cock, but has carefully shaven his balls, ass and taint (I don’t often recommend watching straight porn stars, but the guys I mention here are probably the cutest guys in XXX today.)
So really it’s a no-brainer. Manscaping is something that every man, be he straight, gay, bisexual, or Republican should apply to their weekly personal hygiene regiment. I mean, think of it like buying a house. Wouldn’t you be more inclined to buy a house with a yard that is neat, tidy and well-trimmed? Of course!

After graduating with a degree in Exercise and Sport Science from GWU in DC and then spending several years working along the sidelines of the adult entertainment industry, I decided to utilize my education and experience in both areas to set up this blog to help coach men to strive to be more sexually aware of themselves and their lovers in order to maximize the pleasure they experience during sex and other sexual activities.
