Among the latest research from our team at Indiana University is a brand new study, available from the Journal of Sexual Medicine, about pubic hair removal trends among 2,451 women in the United States. This is one of the few studies to have examined women’s pubic hair removal patterns and also one of the largest. Plus, if you read the full article, it has lots of interesting information (at least I think so) about how women’s pubic hair has been represented in the art of different cultures and time periods and the little we know (or sometimes think we know) about the topic.
You can find the study on the JSM web site. It’s called “Pubic Hair Removal among Women in the United States: Prevalence, Methods and Characteristics” and it’s available through the Early View mechanism of JSM. If you have questions about the study, please email me.
