Im 15/f and havent done anything sexually. i was wondering if i should be shaving? I have and it hurts really bad and leaves red bumps. Any suggestions? I dont know what guys are into. Should I even be shaving or does it matter? THANKS!

the red bumps are called razor burn, and don't worry you're not alone. You don't need to stop shaving, you just need to learn how to remove the hair without irritating the skin.
one trick is to dry shave with an electric razor.
another would be to shave under water
an effective [but expensive] way to remove hair is to wax
but my number one choice for your razor-burn free hair removal is to use Veet. Veet is a lotion that removes hair in 3 minutes, kind of like Nair but it does not burn or smell funky =P
It is cheap and works really well, that is what I use. If your skin is very sensative then just leave it on for 2 minutes and 30 seconds. this will make your hair thin and brittle, instead of removing it all. I do this because then it is easier to shave, and is pain free.
