Well, because it&#8217;s a much smaller area than both legs I think I can afford that.<\/p>\n<p>Chav: Thanks mum. It&#8217;s just such a hassle having to shave it all the time (<em>she actually said this in the queue at Woolies!<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>Well, maybe my imagined conversation is completely wrong, but just how does a soon-to-be-18-year-old girl have a conversation with her mother about having her pubic hair removed?<\/p>\n<p>Would the mother ask why? And would she be told that it makes cunnilingus so much more enjoyable for her boyfriend (or girlfriend!)?<\/p>\n<p>Or would the mother smile, say &#8216;That&#8217;s lovely dear, would you like a cake as well?&#8217; and reach for her chequebook?<\/p>\n<p>And is it only me who finds it bizarre on three levels:<\/p>\n<p>1. That an almost 18-year-old girl has identified she (or someone!) prefers her cnut to be smooth<\/p>\n<p>2. That the girl has made this known to her mother, and<\/p>\n<p>3. That the mother is providing a course of pubic hair laser removal treatment for her daughter<\/p>\n<p>Sorry &#8211; four things:<\/p>\n<p>4. And that birthday-girlie-chav is discussing the removal of her pubic hair in a not quiet voice whilst standing in a queue for the cash desk in Woolies.<\/p>\n<p>?<\/p>\n<p>Just me then.<\/p>\n<p>But for the record, as someone who loves delivering cunni&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Oh.<\/p>\n<p>Not here?<\/p>\n<p>Fair enough.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>B<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Parental advisory warning: obfuscated rude words ahead Lunchtime today, yours truly standing in line to pay for a few trinkets bought at a branch of<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-278","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-stuff","two-columns"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/brennigjones.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/278","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/brennigjones.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/brennigjones.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brennigjones.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brennigjones.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=278"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/brennigjones.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/278\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/brennigjones.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=278"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brennigjones.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=278"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brennigjones.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=278"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
