Do you trim your "lady garden"?

OK Riverwalk I get where you're coming from but as far as I'm concerned there's a time and a place and this ain't it.

Quite!

Ah, Galen, presumably that's why Ruskin was reputed to have been so horrified when he discovered his wife's body hair. He probably thought that the appearance of the women in the Old Masters' paintings was natural.

Look at old classical paintings of Venus etc. it's not that new a fashion and I believe they 'plucked'! [ouch]

Maybe it's because I'm a nurse that I don't have a problem with discussing Lady Gardens! In the context which the OP put forward, that is.

First, I don't think it's a euphemism, more a 'larky' label - I'm sure the OP wasn't being coy in using the phrase.

Full waxing/shaving is a newish social phenomenon - and it's reasonable to discuss it, along the lines off body image, getting older, sexual activity, etc.

Why don"t you start Greatnan ?

And no, I don't mean Pete!

Frank doesn't usually contribute to threads like this. There is, however, another male poster who does. Let's hope he hasn't noticed....

Galen you are braver than me! I was dying to make a reference to the F word, but was put off by all the potential bleating about how harmless/what fun it all is. Good for you.

What is wrong with using the proper biological term? We are not children.

suzied!

Has anyone noticed that a certain member with a *london pension has not contributed to this thread?

I thought it an interesting cultural phenomenon, I didn't associate it with intrusive weirdos, sex or porn, but maybe thats me being naive. There was an article in the Daily Telegraph about it for goodness sake. If people don't want to discuss it they don't have to. If some people are titivated by grannies discussing it more fool them. I thought "lady garden" quite an attractive term, and has floral, fragrant and attractive connotations, and what's wrong with that. It's better than front bottom, no?

LOL There's no answer to that, Elegran

Shall we move over to the gardening forum?

The association of lady gardens with caves is a bit odd. I would have thought that a garden would lead to a front door. A cave is more likely to be surrounded by wild tangled vegetation (probably rather rank)

Why have we all got to suddenly get uptight up about anything to do with - wait for it - SEX!!!

I hope you all steered well clear of this one

And definitely this one

If it was through Gransnet, did you report it to HQ? They would block that person.

If it wasn't through Gransnet, well, be more careful where you post stuff.

The horrible euphemism was enough to put me off.

I agree , ELLA.

I think if you've ever been targeted by a weirdo you'd feel a little less comfortable about it happening again.

I don't mean WD 40

What about that thread that Geraldine started, about lubricants?
