peach_nectarine.jpgMichael Patrick, writer for Beauty News NYC, has gone where few would dare. While it’s becoming increasingly commonplace for men to shave their boys and prune the upper hedges, to mix metaphors, only the rarified gent has the stones to get them (gulp) waxed. Patrick took this one for the team and reported back:

Diane started on one side of my groin and worked her way across with intense attention to detail. Slowly and painfully, section by section, I went from the proverbial peaches to nectarines.

Patrick offers a few tips at the end of his brief but concise article, including what appears to be the must crucial advice on the matter for intrigued parties:

2: Be sure that you have at least ¼ inch of hair to work with. If you have less hair, the results won’t be as clean or smooth and the experience will be more painful.

Though I haven’t tried this particular treatment thus far myself, I might also add that a few cocktails prior to one’s appearance at the salon may well aid in overcoming the nerves; I would assume that, for most men, it’s not the pain that we fear so much as the humility of baring our boys to some stranger with hot wax and a tongue depressor.

So. Who’s down for some nut waxing?

    Ask your girlfriend before you do this. Mine loves when I trim but is grossed out when she feels like shes “fucking a 12 year old” It doesnt help that I am 2 years younger than her to boot lol

    A friend of mine says the same thing about women who wax it all (aka. the Brazilian).. makes him think of pre-pubescent girls. Personally, I don’t get that at all, give me a smooth playing surface anytime.

    As for the male equivalent, some trimming perhaps if you are particularly hairy, but otherwise, is there a good justification for this, beyond a request from ones significant other.

    Well, we covered a lot of the benefits of a well-shorn scrote a few months ago, in our article, “Do you Still Manscape?” Check back for a variety of feedback on the pros and cons on the matter.

    But the top two in my book are:

    1. The area sweats and therefore smells less, which is a comforting thought, and encourages your partner to
    2. The contact surface during sex is greatly enhanced. In short, you *feel* more.

    When Howard Stern first moved to Sirius one of the guys on the show (Richard Christy) volunteered to have this done on air and it was possibly one of the funniest things I’ve ever heard on the radio. I think they are actually showing it on the HowardTV free preview that they are doing if that is still going on. Don’t try to eat or drink anything while you are watchhing it, though!

    I’ll trim the hedges, but when it comes to waxing the boys, well, that metro-vibe scares me more than a little. A waxed sack will destroy the air of manliness that took me 30 years 18 years to generate - I’m already a hairless wonder.

    Supernegroes don’t need nutsack hair to have an “air of manliness”, Jay! You just have to open your mouth (or write something) and you’re there.

    Two questions come to mind:

    1) Why in the world would someone do something so juvenile? Ala tattoos, blogs and clit piercings, the world does not revolve around “you”. Lord.

    2) However, the main reason I ask is that precious few people know why we have hair “down” there. Well, my resident Einsteins, it is for germ protection. That is why we hairs in our nose, outside our anus, as well as genital area. To protect from germs, airborne viruses and the like. It is no wonder, that aside from illegal immigration, it is crap like this that adds to a virus and bacteria roster that was once thought eridicated are now thriving like Al Sharpton on Imus.

    Me. My balls are hairy and God intended for them to be that way. I do not need an Oprah-approved guest to say so.

    Hey Cliff Branch; If you are worried that loosing some hair will cause a germ infestation don’t do it. I have no problem with how hairy you keep your body why should you have a problem with how smooth I keep mine.

    I get full body waxing all the time. My girlfriends love it and it really increases the physical feeling for me (Hair doesn’t have any nerves so having a pelt between you and your mate doesn’t exactly enhance your experiance).

    It looks nice too. Let me ask this: Which phrase would you use as an inuslt - “Hairy like a beast” or “Smooth and clean”?

    I’ve also found that women will almost always laugh and say that male waxing is absurd… until they’ve had a waxed male. Believe me they change their tune fast when they’re with someone smooth and clean after they’re used to hairy as a beast.

    I found that the first time you have any particular area waxed is by far the most painfull. After that the pain decreases dramatically each session. Back, shoulders, legs and butt are nearly painless. Male Brazilian is slightly painfull, chest and stomach are painfull.

    So that’s my take on the waxing. I’ve been doing it for a long time and will never go back to being the hairy caveman.
