I've never had long pubes, since day one I've shaved them off and because of this I don't get itchies. Blah blah womanly-ness. I just always thought it looked quite ugly, but maybe if you have beef curtains or a heavily pigmented vag keeping the hair there is a good thing. Men though normally don't care, they show interest and may prefer shaven because of pornography's influence, but like it matters they aren't made to be picky are they? Discharge wise. I used to get alot before I went on the birthcontrol. The amount and consistancy ranges throughout your cycle. If it's something you've had for a while you are a fine, changes and itchiness is what to watch out for. Discharge has an acidic ph you'd know if you ever tasted- to cleanse the vagina. If it's sticky and dries as snail trails, it's lady juice.
