For anyone not aware, this is a troll attempt. They’ve already done the same thing elsewhere.

Man, I hate to break this to you, but the idea that trimming or shaving reduces bacteria and fungi is malarkey. You can bathe like hell with anything but the heavy stuff used pre-surgery and you’ll still have bacteria and fungi all over your bare skin.
Since that skin is now irritated in comparison to untrimmed skin, that’s a higher chance for said microbes to get past the normal defense of the skin. Not a lot higher, but it is still higher.
Ingrown hairs do not require shaving to occur, though they are definitely less likely when the hair is trimmed not too closely rather than shaved. All it takes is the end of the hair digging into the skin a little. Not as common, but still happens.
Sweat sirt and oils also spend less time on the skin, and are just as easy to wash out of hair, and you’re less likely you have that stuff clogging up pores when it’s spread across the slightly greater surface area of the hairs as well as the skin.
Whether or not someone likes the smell of freshly washed pubes and is more or less willing to go down on someone based on the presence of pubes has nothing at all to do with hygiene at all, that’s a separate topic which comes down to preferences.
Hygiene is about the cleanliness and health of the body, not preferences. Again, anyone can do whatever they want regarding their own body, 100%. But you made a claim about hygiene, a claim that a lot of people echo that is pure myth, purely false, and it leads to other people taking that myth as fact when it isn’t.
You can go in the woods with or without trimming or shaving, that’s your choice. But in terms of health and cleanliness, pubes are less likely to cause problems than severely trimmed hair (slightly trimmed for aesthetics has no difference from leaving it wild).
Again, do what you want, it’s your body. I’ve already dropped other information to counter the claim of it being more hygienic, so we don’t need to continue if you don’t want to, no worries, no anger, no nothing. Even this comment is meant for other people coming along rather than as some kind of response to you as a person. They can freely verify which set of claims is accurate based on current best practices, they can even request information about where my info comes from.
Hygiene?
There’s no advantages to less hair than more in that regard. To the contrary, there are minor disadvantages.
Just the possibility of ingrown hairs alone is more of a disadvantage than anything else. Like, shave or trim as you wish, it’s your body, but whoever/whatever told you that pubic hair is unhygienic lied to you. Trimming is definitely less of a problem than shaving in terms of the health of the area, but it isn’t completely without issues.
That being said, your technique is on point :)
My wife. Or, very rarely as time passes, old memories.
No bullshit.
Somewhere back in my thirties, I started getting tired of naked strangers on screens and paper. By the time we got married, the only other thing I was interested in was written erotica. While I still enjoy that, it isn’t for masturbation, just for the entertainment.
Now, I have a partner that’s a better match in every way than I could have ever hoped for. Best sex I’ve ever had, and she’s an incredible person the rest of the time too. So when it’s solo time, she’s the first thing that comes to mind.
But, every now and then, memories will stir, and that’s its own joy.
Porn? It’s fucking boring when it isn’t absurd, and it’s just depressing when it isn’t boring. The internet killed interesting porn.
I’m not saying it isn’t okay for other people, y’all do y’all. Just saying I’m pretty much done with that shit. Out of curiosity, I’ve even tried watching some older porn from before it went pure gonzo incest crap, and nothing. Even stuff that I very much liked back in my teens and twenties.
Take tgis as you will, since I block the image and video based C/s from this instance (I’m not against them, just don’t want them in my feed, and don’t have a use for them).
But, I think that those kind of C/s should have some kind of tag system that’s instance wide to make for easier filtering for the folks that do have a use for nudes and porn. Like, the obvious tags would be like M/F/TM/TF for the most common gender and genital type combos. Then have a few for the bigger kinks, like BDSM/BOND/EXTREME/CNC, or whatever would be useful over time. Those are just examples off the top of my head, not any kind of “these must be there, like that” type of thing.
Tags make any image and video community easier to navigate via apps that have such ability to filter, and afaik, searches can find them when they’re in [brackets]. So filtering in and out are both possible with the same system of tags.
Doesn’t even matter if C/s opt out of using them, so long as there’s an instance wide standard for formatting and whatever characters are used.
Man, I’ve become rather unfond of porn at all. I’ve gotten to the point that it’s written erotica and fantasy for me. Porn has gotten so ugly so often that it’s all just offputting for me.
That being said, back when I did use porn, it was anal. It’s one of those things that is very rarely on my list of things to do (for my own pleasure, I’ll do it if a partner wants it), but it uses to be arousing because of the implied openness and trust (which, I know, isn’t the case in porn, but that’s the part that makes me willing to do it irl). It’s the idea of “oh, I’ll share everything with you” that’s interesting about it in porn.
Irl, I still get turned on by that idea, but anal itself is not anywhere near as enjoyable as vaginal sex. To the contrary, sometimes it’s distinctly unenjoyable for various reasons.
On a date date? As in going somewhere together, on a planned outing.
I suppose the weirdest that ever got was a lady that specifically wanted to go to McDonald’s. I had a reservation at this nice greek place, but she wanted that salty crap instead lol.
Welllll, now that I think of it, one of the girls I dated in high school did go a little weirder.
We were out in the woods, just walking. She starts laughing like crazy and says it’s like a slasher movie, what with it creeping close to evening and things getting darkish.
She gets a grin on her face and says “chase me”, and takes off running.
A few seconds later, I’ve caught up because longer legs. She starts laughing again, and we finish walking.
She was legit a weird girl across the board. Don’t even ask about the sex.
She said it was a little thrilling, the rush of controlled fear from being chased a little. Not as much as she had thought it would be, but she didn’t get far ahead, so maybe it would have been different if I had played it out. But she didn’t want to do it again because the impulse was gone.
No such thing. The services for dating are all bot driven now. People end up paying for a service that simply isn’t as advertised.
Now, hookup services ala grindr, they can do better at finding real people, but it’s hit or miss about making connections that matter. Last I talked to anyone, adult friend finder is kinda decent, but you still run into it being more about hookups than any mid to long term connections. But, since you describe a pretty open situation with your partner, focusing on something that’s going to be non monogamous friendly like that is likely to be a better choice.
Believe it or not, that kind of “fetish” is likely going to be found by searching bimbo.
