So just to get into context i know of someone who shot a couple scenes for local companies (non-american) and she enjoyed it. She taught about going to the US to shoot some but her exchange with (i presume) an agent or someone working for an agency really didn't go well. There was a lot of stuff they mentioned but the one that truly got under my skin is this one...

They said she would need to let grow her pubic hair. She is bald, wich is pretty much the "standard" around here. Not saying all ladies are like that, but from personal experience most are bald or near bald.

Now my question is this, why in the holy load of Peter North are agents promoting hairy vagina? This could explain why we see more and more of it into porn, and i know there is a public for that, usually when a pornstar make a poll about if she should grow a bush or not the answers are usually 50/50%. But i really taught this was a choice by the actress, you know, part of this whole "feminist movement" or something. I dunno. In any case, i just want to make it clear that LOTS of us prefer bald, and honestly for a while i was fine with "small stripes" or very well groomed mini-Vs or such but lately i see more and more of long curly black vagina hair and dare i say it , for ME it is litteraly screwing up my porn... I litteraly skip the sex parts and just focuss on oral and such. Like i said, i can deal with a well groom stripes or such but big bushes is a major turn off. And if it end up spreading to the vaginal lips then it will be the end of it for me...

I know its MY personal preference, im fully aware of that, i know it please SOME peoples, but is that some kind of idea among porn agencies/companies that 90% of the current porn clients prefer hairy? Cause its totally false... I shave my balls and i can tell you this shit grow fast, so maybe could the pornstar do some scenes bald, and then some scenes with some hair to appeal all publics? I dunno. But i feel its getting hard to find bald porn. You have this fresh young actress (18-21) that look super cute, but then she got the vagina of "Aunt Georgette" :/ Sometimes i feel the 70s are calling, they want their vaginal hairs back...

And before someone says it, no bald does not equal "looking underage" at all. Thats not the goal of it. I just think a women shaved everywhere (exept head obviously) looks more feminine, classy. I even see some women pictures sometimes with hairy arm pit. Thanksfully this has not crossed into porn (at this moment) but again this is something that would be a huge turn off for me. I mean im fine if its for a fetish movie. Like every fetishes have their fans, and thats cool, but i mean as a "standard porn scene" .

I am not attracted to guys at all but even when it comes to "looking good" for men when i see super hairy men (chest/back etc) i don't find it "good looking". I prefer completely shaved like most WWE wrestlers.

Anyway... whats your taughts on that?

Sorry if i made grammar/spelling mistakes, english is a second language. And for the ones wondering, i am in my mid 30s.

I find your supposed 'insider' story very unlikely.

Bush returned to porn because of top performers back in the mid to late 2000s like Sasha Grey, Ginna and Kristina Rose growong theirs out not because of any pressure from agents.

For a woman to have hair nowhere other than her head and qualify as classy or feminine is just a perspective often forged by social conditioning. Armpit hair isn't for me but I'm not hugely fussed over pubic hair whether it's a full carpet, a big V on the mound, a landing strip or bald like a boy racer's tyres.

What exactly is a "standard porn scene" other than a porn scene with people whose appearance you approve of? "Standard" is nothing more than a measure of the time you're talking about. As you alluded to pubic hair on women was common in the 1970s so was that not the "standard" back then? Fetishism and minority are not interchangeable. By definition a fetish is a fixation to a feature or body part, not by whether it's minority of people who have that fixation. You also seem to live under this mistaken impression that fetish and mainstream porn don't crossover but that's nonsense. Big boob porn is usually considered mainstream but it's still a fetish as the fixation is on her having large breasts. Hell, your preference of women being bald downstairs is a fetish as you put so much emphasis on it and need for it to be present to get your jollies.

There's another ADT user who had a similar complaint though his dislike of public hair was pathological to the point of calling such women dirty but either way, there's a really simple solution: vote with your wallet. If people stop buying porn that has something unpopular, maybe studios and individuals will realize they're not giving the people what they want.

If I was a porn agent I would totally push a vaginal hair agenda. Grow an 80's era Christy Canyon bush or get the hell out of my office, Susan!

I'm ten years older than you , when I was in my early teen (I mean thirteen/fourteen) hairy/non hairy was the crossing line separating those who hit puberty from those who didn't , to us to find a a girl with no hair was a big turn off from everything, I'm not even talking about anything really sexua,l I'm talking stuff like "playing the doctor" which was mostly a consensual excuse meant to see each other naked , well that was the moment of truth , if she didn't have any hair I'd cease immediately , she was too young. This because I did play the doctor already at a much younger age so I already knew how bald a very young girl's pussy looked like the same way I knew how a grown girl's pussy looked like and it wasn't bald

This concept kinda carved itself in my brain as I still prefer hairy pussies over bald ones. Girls begun to heavily trim their bushes as much as their swimsuits went shrinking especially when wearing a topless mini-tanga , which were very common in Europe in the late nineties and over , there was no room for any hair under that very little piece of tissue covering her genitals, from then on many women begun to fully shave their bush , it was also much simpler than trim it regularly.
As a side benefit some fake blonde wouldn't be exposed by their black pubic hair .

as for classy women, in Italy Countess Marina Ripa di Meana a prominent member of the jet set campaigned against furs and hunting , she posed naked sporting her fully hairy pussy so ...

I'm old enough that a naked woman with a bush was simply a naked woman. Some people might positively comment on the size and shape of the bush but generally men didn't mention anything about it because that's what a naked woman looked like/ Then one day you started to see more and more women without it and it grew to the point where guys like me had few if any women sporting any kind of pubic hair(let alone an actual bush).

There is something fundamentally sexy about a woman sporting a nice bush and I'm glad that we see more women with them today.

Almost forgot

I don't think agents are pushing anything , maybe that one agent was just looking for some performers for Rodney Moore hairy series , so he asked because of that, there's no demand for bushed women , it's reduced to a fetish at best

^Not to derail the thread but the only thing that most agents push is that the performer avoid getting ink on her body.

No but mostly because vaginas do not have hair, pubic areas do and I don't think agents push for hair down there.

Agents can't even discourage their clients from getting unnecessary breast augmentations so I doubt they can "force" a starlet to grow hair.

Well when you look at it, anything can be seen as a fetish, from hair to breast to ass to certain type of positions. Anything can become a focuss in some scene. By standard i mean what is generally see standard for a male porn audience looking for something regular.

For instance you don't usually see men cumswap in a scene that is targeted at heterosexual. Because its not arousing for heterosexual man. Yet sometimes i see guys licking their own cum out of the performers face or kissing her while she is full of cum. This may not be homosexual completely as he only interact with his own fluid but i do think it lean to homosexuality in a way. I can't say how many guys like or don't mind that but its something that turn me off in a porn scene and i will either retrim the scene myself to "cut that part" out. It remind me of 90s/early 2000s porn when some peoples made edit to porn scenes to remove the male performer "face closeup" before he came. Now i just want to make it all clear, im not against homosexuality obviously and im totally for companies to shoot gay porn for gay customers. But in my "heterosexual porn" i prefer not to see male on male interaction or even guy interacting with his own fluids.

That being said to get back on the bush thing, i feel its totally fine to shoot movies for fans of super hairy vagina, but wish those would be marketed as that. Kinda like im not a fan of gaping assholes and those are USUALLY in scenes/series that focuss on this so i can avoid them.

Maybe the "not liking pubic hair" is linked to my generation or whatever, but for ME when i see a woman with pubic hair, no matter if she is a duchess or what not, it scream "the woman who does not even take the time to make herself look good", like she does not take care of her body. I feel the same for legs or whatever.

Even as a teen, i had a professor who was fairly attractive facially, nice body, i was a teen (around 14/15) but she had very hairy forearms, more hairy than my natural 30s self. It was a major turn off for all of us (me and my friends) as we would sometimes joke about this behind her back. Now yes it was "teen mean" a bit at time, but you get the point.

As for the guy mentioning doctor and underrage, can i repeat for me this has NOTHING to do with underrage. The ass is also something hairy naturally, yet (for now) you don't see any hairy ass in porn. Why? Because for some reason hairy ass is a turn off maybe for more peoples than hairy vagina. Yes i get that vaginas can have many different levels of hairy. Thanksfully MOST performers have not crossed the line of hairy "vagina lips", it seem to remain "above" but i fear this will happen and ill have a hard time finding "good porn" :/

As for ink, its another thing that is going "exagerated" in this days and age. I am not against some tatoos, i totally loved Krystal Steal lower back tribal and Jenna Jameson's tatoos (while she performed, not now) didn't bothered me. But lately i see so much women with beautifull bodies just covered with tatoos, i just don't understand. Some of them are also very questionable and seem to be there because "hey she just felt like adding another one". There is even some women with FACE tatoos these days :O :O

But well i guess thats maybe another debate for another thread.

It does seem like the bush trend has really grown. My personal preference is bald but many of the performers I like are sporting some kind of hair down there.

I don't think you actually read my message , what I said is that it was the line once , then at some point it ceased to be.

but to really understand that point you should take a look at the covers of some Japanese porn in which some girls known to be well over 20, got a make-up, are dressed accordingly and of course sport a fully bald pubic are to the point they look like grade school girls, quite disturbing.It's called loli or lolicon genre, They say it's just a fantasy they're all grown up adult women.
I don't want to digress about those with that kind of fantasies.

Anyway it would be impossible if they were sporting a fully grown bush in their pubic area, there would be no way for a fantasized kid to have that

Than of course a clearly adult woman who is bald has nothing to do with that, plus today at least in the western world being bald down there means nothing , Ijust said the way it felt when I hit puberty , back then only little kids were bald down there and that had an effect on my sexual tastes of course

That's precisely my point. A fetish is a fixation by definition but it is not mutually exclusive with the mainstream. "Standard" is a nebulous term because it reflects the times - it's not an inflexible or immovable construct. Pubic hair on women was "standard" in porn for a male audience the 1970s, was it not?
I have absolutely no idea why you went off on a tangent like that but how does an autoerotic act lead to homosexuality? If a man jerks himself off, does that mean he'll "go gay" as well because he's touched a penis even though it's not homosexual completely as he's only interacted with his own body. I don't care to see a man play with his own spooge either but I'm not sure it's my sexuality that is the cause of not finding such an act appealing.
If you wish to avoid certain scenes, why does researching seem beneath you? It's not rocket science to look at the DVD cover (especially the back), check the website or watch a trailer so see if there's something as obvious as a woman having a sizeable amount of pubic hair. There are performers I don't care to see so I do my research and depending on the platform I buy from, I purchase or download only the scenes with performers I'm happy to watch in a scene.

A generational link is just a lazy stereotype. I'm in the same age range as you and while I may have had a preference for a "shaven haven" when I was younger, I happen to appreciate varying pubic hair styles on women today. Making herself "look good" is a matter of perspective, not an irrefutable fact. Try to remember that physical attractiveness is down to the individual. Tom can find a hairy minge attractive, Dick may not while Harry can be indifferent and it's not limited to just three types of people in terms of their thoughts on female pubic hair.

Did anything gave you the impression we're talking of "wild bushes"? We're talking about trimmed bushes , they need more care than just razor off everything every 3 days , they need to be manteined either in size and shape, the lenght is also an issue.

Much like a trimmed beard with its carefully designed lenght and shape over a full shaven face , when I had the first it needed at least half hour a day to be taken care of, the latter just ten minutes.

Yeah and i taught we had pass that. The 70s are far far away (50 years by now almost) . Go look up the way peoples dressed back then, would you dress like that now? For some weird reasons some stuff seem to come back like the big pornstache wich almost every men sported back then, i dunno why. Whats next? The mullet will be back? I think there is just some stuff wich is better left in the past.

As for the trailers etc yeah obviously, but here is the thing. When you been watching porn a while you eventually get biased of it. You become selective. Both of performers and type of scenes, if now i have to filter one more thing its kinda annoying... make it even harder to find good porn. Some websites like brazzers produce in big quantities so they remain a "good value" (as long as you are into 1 on 1 scenes, because 80% of their content is that) but some other websites put 1 scene every week. So 4 a month... can't be as selective. Ultimately tough when you have a performer you enjoy and like, but these days she has hair in EVERY scenes, it get a bit annoying. Could she not shave entirely for at couple weeks of her shooting schedule? Give us some hair free porn... I mean that stuff grows back right? lol

I don't get DVDs anymore because of 2 things, first they are unpractical (i like my porn ready at a click and easily browsable in my media player) and 2 when i have wank a few times to a scene i rarely watch it again unless its an amazing scene (like a gangbang or special setting). Thats why i use brazzers as an exemple, thanksfully there is tons of stuff release on a constant basic so even if lots of it in not memorable at least the volume make up for it.

This is the reason why i mostly avoided japanese porn, the bushes... (and censorship). I am not a fan AT ALL of the "dress them like an underrage girl" fantasy, so i doubt this would work for me either but when i find a good looking japanese actress in a hair free, censorship free scene, its so AMAZING lol. I love japanese women (facially etc) but the way they shoot their scenes over there turn me off completely. I guess thats why i was so big into american-asian actress in the US.

I didn't mean to imply you'd like those, I just meant that a bush makes the difference some can dress a woman as a kid as much as he wants but if she sports a fully grown bush there's no way for anybody to satisfy any fantasy she'd undoubtedly look an adult and that's why they were bald whereas most if not all the other Japanese actresses were bushed.

In today JAV though things have changed basically all those actresses eligible to shoot lolicon movies (basically any actress no more than 4 ft 10" tall with a b cup max breast, which means a lot of them) stay bald so that they won't have to pass any job available , a freshly shaven area would be very much recognizable and this would ruin a loli movie.

It's beginning to be a little bit harder to find bushy women even in Japanese Adult Videos

Edit this hottie here is Suzumiya Kotone formerly and mostly known as Shirosaki Aoi , she shot some of those loli movies whose covers are on the thumbs in her filmography linked before, she also did some uncensored stuff back then she disappeared for a year and now she's back but as you can see this time there's no way she could pass for a loli, this is her latest, issued on August 25

Yes, I am aware of how long the 70s were, thank you very. It doesn't change the fact that it was the norm for porn actresses to have pubic hair in movies back then, showing your argument of "standard" to be nothing more than a reflection of the times, not a fixed specification that never changes, which would give your argument credibility. I am not suggesting the clothing or hairstyle should come back. That response was utterly feeble, suggesting you have nothing better to come back with or that you acknowledge your definition has carries only so much weight.

Who said you cease being selective as you watch more porn? I am selective myself and I have no idea why you seem to assume I am not. Liking variety in one physical feature doesn't mean I can't be otherwise selective in what I watch or like - it's naive to see in such a black and white way when there is something called nuance in life. Being selective doesn't mean the studios should cater specifically to you, that's what you buy custom porn for. Your "here is the thing" counter argument is just lazy excuses. I have no reservation filtering out who or what I don't like in porn. Yes, pubic hair grows back but in this day and age women have something called autonomy over their bodies. It's at the studio's discretion whether to cast and shoot women for having a particular look as it is at your discretion whether to watch them or not.

Who said you have to buy DVDs any more? The studios or vendors selling them often show covers, don't they? I don't buy DVDs myself but that doesn't mean I can't check the covers online, does it?

We have a lot of threads on ADT about pubes on girls and whether or not they're good or bad or neither. I can close this and send people there if that's the discussion.

Not to mention it gets discussed in just about every girl's thread.

The question asked here was whether there was actually a phenomenon of girls being instructed by agents to grow out their pubes.

The OP says he heard one girl say that this is the case. Has anyone else heard this? Is it possibly an isolated incident? Has anyone heard of the opposite - an agent telling a girl she has to shave her pubes?

That's where the discussion needs to go.

Why you guys refer constantly to the seventies? Bushes especially in real life were still common well into the nineties even in porn

This is Marilyn Jess a most prominent French actress with an almost ten years long career who retired right after the John Holmes HIV scare in 1989, she was the one in Traci Lords' lesbian scene in Traci I Love You! (1987)
She begun this way
00A2_m_jess_123_70lo.jpg
Here's in mid eighties
04b MJess.jpg
and thisis her in late Eighties
01A MJess.jpg

Not only she sported a full bush but it went even growing bigger over the years , and she wasn't the only one sporting a bush but I'm not creating a gallery here, she's just an example
The trend begun to change and the bush become thinner in mid ninenties although it wasn't fully bald yet , here's Silvia Saint
[Clipboard01].jpg

Why her?
Because she was there when it changed, there's a date on the picture take a look

^ Why? I cited something called an example disproving his apparent assertion that a "standard" doesn't change. Perhaps you misunderstood what I wrote or tried to find hidden meaning in what I stated but I said absolutely nothing indicating that the 1970s was the only decade where female performers having notable pubic hair was the norm.

I didn't quote anybody , although the OP mentioned the seventies and about pubic hair to be something so very passed , 50 years old, I was talking in general not quoting any of you in particular but referring to the many debates over bushes here on ADT always talking as if it was a thing who died in that era, it's not , pubic hair was still there at the beginning of this century

In the 90s, most of my exposure to the adult industry (altough minimal as i was... well... not an adult) the most i was seeing was either like that Sylvia pic you posted or a stripe. Hair was still there but very trimmed. That amazonian forest on the other picture you show i never seen that personally either in pictures or movies. I gone back and watch lot of 90s stuff (altough mostly american) when it became easily available online and i was older, and i don't recall having seen this. To be honest i wouldn't had watch for long, as even in picture i find it "less than apealing" to remain polite.

My problem is that hair is getting back to be longer than in the 90s... "more bushy" and not well groomed like i mentioned (those little stripes) and i really fear it spread to ungroom completely at some point.

I think your "exposure" to sex lacked variety and you developed your tastes over sex the way you saw it , besides in real life many women and especially the younger among them begun to razor off their pubic hair ,I wouldn't completely rule out a porn influence over that .
The real truth though is that it is only a late way to be on screen, as a main way to be it begun say 2002 and lasted 15 years give or take, but many superstars were already going back to bushes in 2008 some very big stars such as Sasha Grey or Bobby Starr and now Riley Reid and many others in between

I actually explored pretty much everything there was to explore in porn on the legal spectrum obviously. You never know what you may like. But i never liked pubic hair or body hair period on a woman.

Actually i think Riley Reid is pretty cute, nice face, nice eyes, but the bush was always such a turn off i could never watch anything beside blowjob scenes with her. And yeah she was one of the first few i noticed having hairt downstair and that it bothered me.

The other day i was on chaturbate and there was a camgirl i tough was pretty hot, i was wanking and all, and suddenly someone tip for "pants off", and i see the big bushy (that was like EVERYWHERE, even on vaginal lips) and i just lost my boner, like not even figuratively, i litteraly deflated right away. Shot down the page immediately. Even if she had a cute face, nice breast... I just turn me off..thats it.

^ I have the same problem with Riley Reid. I think she's one of the best performers ever, but the bush is a real turnoff. If only she would shape it into a nice "V" or something.

Was watching a cammer once and some guy asked her why she had a hairy pussy. Her reply was golden: "because I'm a woman".
