My pubic area has been itching for awhile. It looks white by the root of each hair after I scratch it, like dry skin.
I have never been sexually active with anyone.
Could my skin just be dry there, and what to help it with? (link)

Summer's Eve has a line of intimate/feminine moisturizers and products to prevent dry/itchy skin. Check your local drug store in the feminine hygeine aisle.

If you shave they're probably ingrown hairs.
Make sure to exfoliate regularly,gently, and well, and to moisturize. It'll keep the skin from getting dry and clogging up the hair follicle/pores.

Is it okay if you have little hairs on your boobs? I think its sort of gross and I'm not about to shave my boobs but does everyone have it or am I the unfortunate one? (link)

Totally normal. And DON'T shave it. It's horrible for the skin.

i've known this guy that i am dating for a really long time, and i like him so much. but it feels so odd when we kiss, because it feels as if i'm kissing someone like my brother. anybody have some advice?
thanx,

I think you have to try and determine how you like him. Because if you like him like a brother, it might be difficult to carry on a romantic relationship with him. You can't make yourself think of him in a different light. You can sure try, though, and make yourself feel guilty about not returning his romantic feelings. Don't beat yourself up either way, though...whether you like him as a boyfriend or not. It's just the way it was meant to be, and probably is for the better. You don't want to string him along when you really aren't romantically attracted to him.

I'm a 16 year old girl, and I don't shave my legs or armpits on any regular basis. I'll do them for special occassions or if I'm wearing a special outfit, but most of the time the hair just doesn't bother me so I don't bother removing it. I figure that it's my body, and my time and energy that I'm saving by not shaving, but sometimes I worry that guys won't be interested in me because of this and I've got to the age where I wish guys expressed more interest in me. Should I start shaving, or should I just wait for a guy who doesn't mind me being me? (link)

All of the previous answers on here are absolutely ridiculous.
NOT shaving is not unhygenic. Otherwise boys should shave too, but nobody says anything about that. In fact, not shaving your underarms helps the deoderant stick and probably keeps you smelling nicer, longer. And obviously, shaving your legs isn't unhygenic either. I don't know why everybody's like "eeewies gross!"...incredibly immature and mislead. It's grows there for a reason.
Sometimes shaving irritates the skin and creates razor burn, too. I know it bothers me. So don't worry about it. All of the people who get weirded out by it are just strange. Women didn't start shaving until VERY recently. Body hair was supposed to be a sign of maturity. It was sexy. And a lot of guys I know don't really care either way. And if your future boyfriend does, just ask him if he'd like to shave his whole body and suffer the razor burn. Then he might have more sympathy.
Just do whatever is most comfortable.
