I got an email this morning, announcing, “Just Dropped: The Ultimate Bush.”
My first reaction was confusion. Why not just… grow your own bush?
Sure, the “faux hair panty” offers a variety of colours and “fur” styles you might not have access to naturally, but the need for “faux” pubic hair continued to evade me. Who is this for, exactly?
I was informed that the need for “faux hair” down there was due to the fact so many women have lasered their pussies bald.
Indeed, the ad campaign attached to “The Ultimate Bush” launch was a vintage one, harkening back to the days of the famed, unkempt 70s bush men were accustomed to seeing not just on the real women they were intimate with, but in porn as well.
The product is silly for a variety of reasons, not least of which being that the sexiness of the bush is in the fact it’s attached to a woman’s genitals, not a g-string.
It isn’t just an aesthetic thing, though to me, the “look” of the completely bare vagina has never appealed to me.
In general, following body and face trends is stupid. Remember when you all tattooed big black slug eyebrows onto your faces, then the trend reverted back to thin eyebrows? Did that shame not stick?
