We don't talk about Kate Winslet too often on these pages. Basically, because she's not a numbskull. She does good work, she gets awards, and then she stays at home with her family. Not much to write home about. But for all the lack of nip slips and late night puking and fivesomes in her private life, she's got plenty of nutty junk happening in her professional life. She recently told Allure (via Mr Skin):
"Let me tell you, The Reader was not glamorous for me in terms of body hair maintenance. I had to grow it in, because you can't have a landing strip in 1950, you know? And then because of years of waxing, it doesn't come back quite the way it used to. They even made me a merkin because they were so concerned that I might not be able to grow enough. I said, 'Guys, I am going to have to draw the line at a pubic wig. But you can shoot my own snatch up close and personal.'"
Can you imagine if this was your job? Being a professional pubic consultant on the set of major motion pictures, having to handcraft merkins for celebrities, painstakingly matching color, length, and volume? We like to picture a little old Bavarian man in a tiny, charming workshop, with helper elves, perhaps, tucked into the mountains, lovingly constructing Kate Winslet's faux pube pelt from the finest hand-raised beavers, then dissolving into tears when he found out it would not be used. "My verk! All my painschtaking verk! For nussing!"

Shit they don't go to the trouble of color matching or getting the length and volume right if you really look at any film where one was used it's a definite giveaway a mirkin was used. I agree with Kate a natural look is going to be much better, not every woman had a monster bush even as far back as the 1930's if you see enough vintage porn some had sparse hair and others had only the top. It's a myth that all women had bushes the size of Kareems cause they only see & remember the ones that were outrageous. Scissors existed back then too and women didn't like a fro then either for obvious reasons. Some pornos of the 70's had shaved snatches even.
…the above being said I'd love a chance to groom the sexy Winslet's nethers.
It's finally nice to see an actress or other famous female be proud of her bare pubes. Like Kate and America Olivo. Most women are not that secure in their sexuality to even discuss such things. As you can see from Playboy the last few years, going hairless is quite mainstream these days. In the early 80s most women thought it was weird, some didn't. It's very sensuous and erotic. You go girls.
