Trimming and STDs

This doesn't actually indicate cause and effect, but an interesting article on "a connection" between trimming pubic I'd hair and STD rates.

Nothing about the effect of a jingle and not getting any sex at all

Old news, we'll stick with our smoothness.

However there are some important limitations to this research that overall mean that it can't prove conclusively that grooming pubic hair directly increases your risk of STIs.

By design this cross-sectional study is not able to prove cause and effect. It can't determine the timing of grooming compared to when STIs were acquired.

The study can't rule out the possibility that the link between grooming practices and STIs is being mediated by sexual activity (that is people who groom might be more sexually active and /or adventurous).

The researchers failed to assess the safe sex practices of participants, they only used the number of lifetime sexual partners as a surrogate for risky sexual behaviour.

There is high risk of responder bias in a survey questioning such a sensitive topic – participants agreeing to take part in this survey may not be fully representative of the general public. That is, people with an active interest in the topic may be more likely to take part (which could explain the relatively high number of groomers in the study).

Also, responders may not always be completely truthful in their answers.

There is the possibility of recall bias when participants were asked to recall both their past grooming habits and lifetime STIs – not all of which (for example, HPV or chlamydia) they may have been aware of having.

Overall, while the team attempted to control for possible confounding effects it is possible that some remained in the model and influenced these results.

And we would not give a fook.

No way are we doing '70's pubes.

Nope, I certainly don't agree with that. Only a tiny amount of people would have been asked. Total bullshit if you ask me. As you most likely catch most stuff up your pussy crack or down your cock shaft/ eye, it's bollocks to say shaving is more risky. Hairy balls don't protect you from cock rot...

Those who trim and shave are probably more likely to be getting more sex . So it's obvious they will be more likely to get more sti's .

This is just a guess and I may be wrong , but that's my theory .

Oh , and we are both shaved / trimmed and have loads of sex , yet haven't had any sti's so either we are lucky or the study is flawed .

Shaving mayresult in tiny nicks in the skin that increase the possibility of the transfer of contagious diseases.

Didn't we have thread about this a week ago? Pubes, the new cure all wonder drug. They're the new leeches apparantly.
