Trimming vs. Shaving, The Ball Hair Debate

A couple of friends and I were sitting around one day, not doing a whole lot, when I said one of those things that just popped into my mind.

"Damn, my balls are stickin' to my legs like nobody's fucking business. Dude, that's the thing I hate about the day you shave them."

I looked around the room, and to my astonishment, only one of the three guys had that look of "I know, man.... I know" on his face.

"You guys telling me you don't know what I'm talking about?"

Again nobody really chimed in so I asked the one buddy of mine in the room with the sympathetic look on his face, "Dude, you know what I'm talking about?" He responded in the positive, and the debate was on. I will recap the various arguments for and against the respective practices of ball-hair maintenance. Keep in mind this discussion is limited to ball-hair, as everyone knows a well-trimmed, but not shorn, bush is the way to go for any non-pornstar male.

SHAVING:

Pros:

• Girls like licking a hairy ballsack about as much as guys like licking bushy vaginas, and everybody likes to get their balls licked/sucked.
• Feels quite nice to the touch.
• Is more visually pleasing to the female eye, and along with a well-trimmed upper bush, gives a more aesthetic view of the genitals, which also makes the penis appear larger.

Cons:

• Involves putting a razor on your ballsack. (Although I still contend that with the sack pulled tight, this is safer than hovering a scissors or clippers near the sack).
• Is arguably the most work to maintain.

TRIMMING


Pros:

• If trimmed close enough, is not too different aesthetically from the shaved sack.
• Does not involve touching open blades directly to your genitalia.
• Doesn't require quite as much maintenance.

Cons:

• Women licking/sucking balls can feel the 1/8" hairs on their tongue (and though I don't specifically care, this may make them less into the act, and less likely to repeat the act).
• Doesn't feel as nice as the shorn sack.
• Doesn't allow quite the same level of ball ventilation.

WILD SACKIN'

Pros:

• Easiest form of maintenance is no maintenance.

Cons:

• This is just plain fucking gross. Do you know how long my ball hairs would be if I never shaved them?
• Most women will find you utterly reprehensible, and those that don't should.

No clear winner will emerge here today, though the clear loser is the Wild Sack approach. Personal preference is the name of the game, but keep in mind these little pros and cons when deciding what to do with your ball hair. And oh yeah, by fucking Christ, never Nair or wax your balls. Then again, if you're dumb enough to think that might be a good idea, go for it.
