At the risk of suffering 'brow-beating' from my fellow gringos and risking the possibility that this discussion may well spiral down where it ultimately ends up in the Pit. But I have to ask this question: Do Colombian men shave their, (ahem) 'nether region'? The reason I ask this question is that I have been requested by 2 Colombian women, from completely different parts of the country, to completely eliminate the 'grass that grows below the belt line'. Now I know women will go 'au natural', some will have a 'landing strip' and others completely barren. But I have never in my life been asked to 'clean the playing field'. I know we have our resident Colombiana on here who I hope she may shed some light on this issue. I'm not sure if this will be a deal breaker or not but I'm not looking forward to doing it. I will throw myself upon the sword so that other may benefit from this question. And please, keep the chuckles to a minimum, (if you can! )

Stubby - I think it is pretty prevalent - maybe it varies by region - one of the weirdest things that happened to me on my first trip to Medellin about 10 years ago - was getting a massage - what I thought was a professional massage - had a towel around mid section - the massage was going fine - rolled over and woman pulls off towel and wips out a straight razor - which sent me into a terror - what the hell is that for I asked - she said she was going to give me a shave on the southern region - I said hell no - she became perplexed - she said all the Colombian men do it, I told her that might be the case but I am a gringo( and not in the porno business) so no thanks.

The less hair the better has been my experience with every Colombian woman I've ever met. When in Rome... I blame it on the porno industry.

scumbuster , I put it up the 'Colombia' section because it was something I thought was unique to the country. But I will settle for any and all comments. jabberwocky I think nailed it though. All Colombia men do it? I have quite a bit of hair on my chest, (as opposed to my head!). I know it is a b!tch when they have to shave me for EKG tests. When it starts to regrow, I am like a dog with a bad case of fleas!!!! I don't know how I could withstand it 'south of the border'!

Wildstubby, your question is not out of line at all, you came to the right place for answers. Well, I got some information right from the horses mouth some time ago, since my gf is a cosmetologist and worked in spas where she 'depilated' hundreds of women (she refused to work on men when she applied for the job, but got hired anyway) with the brasilian wax method, you can see how it's done on youtube. Anyway, in Colombia it has nothing to do with porn or sex for that matter, educated Colombians consider pubic hair unhygienic, especially on women where a bush turns into a big bloody mess during the period and most living in a tropical climate, sweat, urine and vaginal secretions create a hotbed for bacteria and therefore a smelly environment. She finally convinced me that she needs to shave because I'm partial to pussy hair and all my pleading was to no avail. She also suggested to me to at least cut my pubic hair real short with a machine so I don't look like 'un primitivo'. I refused to shave however, don't want to deal with stubbles prickling me or irritating my skin. She shaves every day, every three days when were separated. BTW, for pussy hair lovers the ideal place is Japan where fertility is judged by the amount of pubic hair. I too threw myself upon the sword, so others can benefit, to borrow stubby's words, but that's life in Colombia, folks. No reason this thread should end up in the pit.

@costenogringo said: Excellent CG!!!!! that was precisely the answer I was looking for and in good detail. I never gave it any thought from the 'tropical area' perspective. But it makes perfect sense! I have to admit, it was very easy for this thread to go to the Pit. But everyone kept it clean and I think we all benefitted from the answers that were given. Well done everyone!!!! BTW @costenogringo , I was hoping to meet up with you while in Santa Marta, but I injured my foot on my first step at the hotel, (Tamaca Beach Resort). I hardly went anywhere, including up the coast to the isolated beach!

After the woman came at me with the razor , gave it some thought - if I stayed in Colombia fulltime and did not return to the US - maybe - do what the natives do I guess , but then thought about what would happen back in good old USA - what happens if I am in a car wreck and go to the hospital and they have to cut all your clothes off, or showering at the Y after basketball in the communal showers - are they gonna think I'm in porn?

In my experience women here like to have their men groomed.

It's not just about pubic hair. In my country, there are 90% chances that a man having a manicure is gay. But here in Colombia, it seems far more widespread to see straight males having their nails done. Same for haircuts. I am amazed how Colombian men keep their hair groomed. Well it also has to do with the cost of the service. In France I used to pay 30+ euros for a haircut, here I get it for 20mil pesos in a fancy shop. I also believe a lot of Colombian men have their chest hairs waxed. I have lived in a couple of hot and humid countries before and there I was keeping my armpits and pelvis area groomed. I can assure you it helps preventing bad body smells. Not so useful now in Bogotá so I left the habit.
