Want better sex? Get a Brazilian
Stripping off all your pubic hair improves your sex life, according to a small sample of Australian women who have embraced the Brazilian phenomenon. Preliminary results from a quirky online survey by cosmetic specialists have shed the first light on the reasons many Australian women opt to permanently remove all their genital hair. More than 80 per cent said they underwent the so-called permanent Brazilian, where hair is lasered off, for aesthetic reasons, and about 60 per cent said hygiene was a motivator. But half of the 100 women of all ages surveyed also reported that being hairless made then feel sexier and enhanced their sexual pleasure. The survey, conducted by the Cosmetic Physicians Society of Australasia, was presented at the national cosmetic medicine conference in Melbourne today.
