We’re sort of in love with how men’s grooming labels are finally getting hip to the idea that guys care just as much about taking care of their nether regions as the ladies. That dudes like to manscape isn’t new; it’s just that we never had pop culture-ready talking points like “landing strip” and “Brazilian” to throw around. But now two mainstream shaving companies are taking a not-so-tongue-in-cheek approach to marketing their hair removal wares to the masses.
Both Gillette (above) and Nivea (below) are engaged in relatively new ad campaigns focusing on the hair down there. Nivea, in fact, has an entire website tutorial devoted to teaching men the proper way to remove body hair, from your face to your chocha.
Of course Nivea gets more points for using an actual (hot) guy to demonstrate; Gillette’s spot doesn’t exactly make us want to run out and buy a new razor.

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.

With these spots and ones for NIKE, I am amazed that there is not a major push to have the FCC or CRTC (in Canada) regulate and control what is put out there. I doubt this would ever make a spot on TV.

Don’t get me wrong, I think it is great because there is more info available and will generally benefit everyone who has those questions. 😉

Great. Now, where’s the video on “How to Shave your Asshole without feeling like you got stung by a pit viper”?

@7SnowyNights: LOL

What gay man shaves his pubes off? That is just gross. I like men to have hair down there.
Jason
@7SnowyNights: That was good for an extended giggle; very funny.

Thank you ALWAYSGAY, I thought I was the only sane gay man that is not offended by pubic hair. Enough with the trim/shave. It looks weird. As always, the straight men are the last to catch on to yet another trend.

This gay novel has pretty extreme views about religion and being gay all done in a sci-fi style sory, the writer was even almost killed when this book was first published. After being banned in his own country it is now available.
check the plot – As predicted by Isaac Newton the second coming happened and as the world waited to see what was about to happen an appointed man was sent to meet God, hours later God had vanished and the man came out immortal; no apocalypse, no destruction and no salvation. This gave birth to a chain of holy wars that almost chattered Earth’s civilizations and so giving birth to a mass colonization of planets to ensure peace by separation. Thousands of years later all was at peace by until Endings were born; humans connected to their planets in such a way that they are capable of destroying them should they wish it. Now Earth’s Ending has been born and the day to pass judgment draws near.

Yuck! We are men we should hace pubic hair. I can’t stand when guys shape their pubes as if it is a topiary garden.
Fitz
I am not a pedophile, and I don’t want to pretend that I am sleeping with a 9 year old.

The second video is kind of useless, since you can’t actually see what he’s doing.

I’m lining up with the guys who like pubic hair–and chest hair and armpit hair, and hair on the head, and hair on the butt cheeks. I am NOT interested in hairless guys, period. Your dick isn’t going to grow a millimeter longer if you shave. Sorry, boys, it ain’t. When did this shaving trend start? About the same time everybody decided to get married, have children, and become indistinguishable from the heterosexual hoi polli?
@Daniel_Baylis
Ha! I love it!
I don’t think it’s pressuring people to shave their bits. I think it’s saying, “If you’re going to do it, here’s how…”
Whether you like hair or not, it’s always good to have skills 😉

There’s nothing wrong with pubic hair, but a nicely trimmed package is always superior to wildly out of control pubes. And while it doesn’t actually make you longer, it can create the illusion that you are bigger. That is if your dick isn’t swallowed by fat.
Nothing wrong with keeping it trimmed.
Adam
Is it weird that the model’s nose caught my attention more that his body?! I want his nose!!! It’s perfect.

As I recall, it has a lot to do with your own pleasure and exposing areas of sensation. But maybe that has to do with the quality of sex ypou expect. Why be so critical? Try it! It doesn’t feel so great growing out.
M Shane
Another thing: who wants a mouthfull of hair when you’re mouthing the nether regions such as balls. Spend the night pulling hair out from between your teeth. Unless you just do anal sex, these are practical considerations.
