My friends make fun of my hair down there!

 

Check these out, too...

  • Just shaved my legs, but I'm still seeing roots!
  • My friend sulks if I do better in school than her. Help!
  • 3 times it's OK to tell your bestie's secret
  • Do guys only care about chest size?
  • Girl Code: Is it OK to date your BFF's crush?
My friends always make fun of my hair down there. They always ask if I’ve shaved “the forest” yet. It’s annoying! I keep it neat, don’t get me wrong, but my mom told me it’s supposed to be there. What should I do?

 

Oy! Besties really are the best, but sometimes you’ve just gotta tell ‘em to mind their own business. How you keep your hair down there (or anywhere else on your body, for that matter) is 100-percent your business.

 

Pubic hair is totally natural and it is suppose to be there and it’s not disgusting! Your pubic hair protects the sensitive skin surrounding your private parts from getting irritated by your clothes. Trust me, if you shaved yourself bald down there and then put on a pair of jeans, you’d notice a huge difference.

 

To shave or not to shave (or wax or otherwise remove hair…) is a decision that can only (and should only!) be made by you. What you choose to do with your bod is nobody else’s concern. Don’t feel pressured to change your ways just ‘cause your friends rag on your habits. My advice? Tell ‘em to shut up, then change the subject.

MOD MOD MOD this makes me embarrassed to say but is it bad to masturbate? like touch your self down there ?

Hey girl,

While some cultures or religions may frown on masturbation, it's a personal choice, and there aren't any health risks, so it's really up to you if that's something you want to explore. Check out this post, too! http://www.girlslife.com/post/2010/10/08/Im-Desperate.aspx?cp=all

Mod mod!
I'm 12. I am obviously a virgin. I got my period when I was 11. I always had my period every month except this month. I didn't have mine this month so far. I'm freaking outn..help??




Hey babe,

This is totally normal! Even if your period has been completely regular until now, it's still normal for it to be irregular sometimes. It can be affected by changes in diet, sleep, stress, etc. Don't worry! Just keep on going with your routine and it'll come. Even if it's a few weeks late, don't panic! <3

Take the stairs more than once. When you’re at home, run up and down the stairs three or four times before heading to your room. It’s a sneaky way to stay active.
