Completely Bare Down There

Q: I am dating a man who is significantly younger than me and loving it! The problem is that he keeps asking me to go “completely bare down there.” Am I being old-fashioned if I refuse to shave off all my pubic hair for him?

It doesn't sound like you're acting a bit old fashioned when it comes to dating a younger man-and loving it. You're being adventurous and challenging some norms. I'm sure you thought about the age difference with this guy and then decided to go ahead with what felt right for you. That's terrific, as long as your needs are being met.

Similarly, there is no right or wrong response to his request that you go 'completely bare down there'; it's not about being old fashioned. However, I do wonder what your compliance or refusal symbolically means to you. You might want to think about why you don't have the free spirit that it seems you had to bring you to this relationship and why you think shaving it all off is just 'for him.' Unless you can find something positive in revealing yourself so much, it is better left undone. Instead, talk honestly about how this makes each of you feel.
