Painful Pubic Hair

Unread post by Rat »

right, I've had an issue for quite a few years now, and I haven't been able to research it or find the bravery to talk to my parent or doctor. I haven't a clue if this is normal or not.
For a long time my pubic hair has been very painful. If I pull even very gently it is very painful, and sometimes, if long, it catches in my underwear and hurts. I have never been sexual with anyone before.

Hi Rat,

What you're describing sounds like a pretty common experience when it comes to pubic hair. That hair is attached to a sensitive section of your body, so it makes sense that even light pulling will hurt. The same goes for length; plenty of people find that their pubic hair grows pretty long if they leave it alone.

Does that help?
And you to whom adversity has dealt the final blow/with smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go/turn to and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain/and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.
