Gillette's latest how-to video advises men on how to "trim the forest so the tree looks bigger." Sound reasoning, but we are less concerned about how a corporation thinks we should groom our man parts, and more concerned about what the women we hope to introduce them to think. We asked, they answered. Sorry, Gillette.

Lauren, 27, coordinator: "I would have a hard time believing that a shaved or groomed guy was straight, in all honesty. In addition, that shaved stuff gets all scrape-y pretty fast! Pubes are soft and natural. I guess they gross some people out, but if you want to make out with a Barbie doll, then go find one.

Keri, 25, nutritionist: "I try to keep my laws off other people's bodies, but I will say that a totally shaved johnson bears an unsettling resemblance to a rubber chicken."

Janie, 29, receptionist: "I like it trimmed but with a little fuzz. I also really like that happy trail from the tummy to the yum-yum place as well. More grooming is better than less. It's just easier to get to the hot bits that way."

Ashley, 32, editor: "Bald would be bad. Too hairy isn't really an issue, because I don't use my eyes down there, but it shouldn't be smelly. One guy had a downstairs crew cut and a really neat apartment, so it made me think he was too weirdly meticulous for me. "

Sara, 37, musician: "It's nice to see men attempting to pay even a fraction of the attention we women pay to sexual grooming. Trimming is nice. Clearing the area so that my efforts can be appreciated both physically and visually. It makes it more pleasurable for both of us. Remember, they don't call it a job for nothing. Why not have a tidy workspace?
