when did the adult video industry decide that it was cool for the actresses to be shaved?

I lived through it all, and I believe it was Larry Flynt with Hustler magazine that started showing shaved models.

These days, it seems like they are all shaved. Whey did they decide that

-Because it looks simply better.
-because it is disgusting licking stinking hair with old piss in there and no you cannot clean it this bad odor by washing.
-because it is a hygientic thing, clean and healthy

A shaved pussy is simply a MUST for everyone of good taste.

A) a matter of taste, some of us like to know we're with a woman who's reached puberty.
B & C) Christ! Sounds like you've been with the wrong type of women.
D) It would seem not, as proved by by points B & C

This "mouthful of hair" cliche would make one think cunnilingus was performed by licking the pubic mound. There is no reason for one's tongue to be North of the clitoris hood or East/West of the labia minora and hair doesn't grow on either. Hair does grow on the labia majora but that needs to be spread at least an inch and a half wide to have proper oral sex. Besides, even if one's tongue is licking hair, if the woman bathes daily -- and I can't imagine performing oral sex on someone who doesn't -- the hair shouldn't fall off because one's tongue licked it.

A poster mentioned "old piss" collecting in hair. Yes, it does but if there's no hair at all, it will still be there after drying on the skin of the pubic mound. Far bigger fears for oral sex devotees are the labia majora "sweats" and the vagina lubricates and discharges. Oral sex was never for the squeamish.

No offense but this is absurd. Since hair doesn't grow on the clitoral hood, the clitoris or the labia minora and the labia majora should be spread apart, there isn't "hair getting in the way."

LOL. Orgasms are very subjective but I'd like to see her give some physiological reasons to support that.

Probably about the same time they discovered that armpit hairs and leg hairs also didnt define a woman's maturity as well as stage-shows being just a tad more interesting with the curtains drawn. If wiry, stinky hair turns you on- thats great, seriously I make no judgement. Everybody has their "thing". The legal age for porn is 18, or about 5 years AFTER chix get their hair in various regions, so this argument about them looking like little girls is ignorant. I suppose its also wrong for me to get rid of my back, nose and ear hair because it makes me look like a little boy.

You really want to know? Prior to 1967 the U.S. Postal Service had a long list of things that could not be sent thru the U.S. mails. That list specifically included photos showing pubic hair other than in a medical or nudist publication. Playboy was, from its first issue in 1954, primarily a subscription magazine, which meant it had to have a second-class postal permit, which required that the post office be allowed to inspect a single copy of every issue being mailed. Starting with the first foldout, pubic hair was either hidden or airbrushed out of the negative.

In 1967 the SCOTUS ruled the entire list to be an illegal restraint on free speech in a suit brought by Sidney Friedman of Los Angeles on behalf of American Art Enterprises. But by then an entire generation of porn-consuming men had grown up conditioned to believe that women shaved their pubic hair.

Various democratic countries have very different ideas about what constitutes "free speech". Mostly these things are decided in the U.S. by courts, and I often have trouble explaining to British friends why U.S. courts have decided that 1) naked boobs; 2) pubic hair; and 3) money constitute "free speech", but a sign saying "Bong Hits for Jesus" when held by a high school student is not "free speech".

So you're saying that only the clitoris has any feeling down there? Seriously? Yes, the clitoris is the part that is responsible for the orgasm, but you seriously don't think it feels nice for the area all around there to feel the tongue directly on the skin, without hair blocking the sensation?

Many, many men will tell you that their orgasms feel nicer when their balls are stroked or handled, even though the act of touching or handling the balls doesn't directly trigger an orgasm. It still feels nice, which can enhance the feeling.

Any touching all around that area is nice, and direct touch to the skin in general is nice. Does this really need to be explained though? I think it's just common sense. No offense intended.
