A member asked:
My wife has labia minora quite external. she doesn't want to completely shave there to keep the vagina protected: does it have some sense?

Genital groom: Does your wife tell you how to groom your genitals? Your wife's personal choices regarding hair grooming are best left up to her. The labia minora does not grow hair. The labia majora does. Yes pubic hair does create some protection but many choose to shave for a variety of aesthetic reasons. She should choose to do as she pleases just as you choose to groom your pubic region as you please.
