How old do you have to be to get a brazilian?

A Brazilian anyone?

I have been spending excessive amounts of time with my children this weekend.  He who helped create them had a few things to check off his list for the weekend: fix fridge, watch rugby and of course catch the football, so consequently I had to care for our offspring.

 We have spent a lot of time chatting which is always dangerous with my older two and we reached the topic of age and how it affects us.

 Twin boy informed me that he couldn’t wait to be ‘growned up’ as then he could buy any Moshlings he wanted.  He also told me that he would never make his bed, wash his dinner plate or dust his room so he is going to make a cracking husband one day.

 Twin girl is clearer in her ambitions for when she gets older; and she like me believes she can defeat the ageing process by merely wishing it away.

 “I am not getting older mummy,” she declared, ” because they you have to have hair on your gina and that’s disgusting…”

 When she is (much) older I will introduce her to the concept of a brazilian!

    Ha! This makes me glad to have a son. Rather a filthy room than explaining that one 😉

    Loving the phrase Gina. I know someone called Gina, we don’t see eye to eye. Love the thought of calling her a fanny… thank you!

    Lol – I have tentatively suggested to GG that when and if the time comes that she dislikes the excessive hair on her arms, legs and eybrows, she should talk to me before resorting to Daddy’s razor. So far she’s not bothered though. I’m hoping it will kick in before she starts secondary school 😉

    I am too old. Brazilians crept in while I was still unhappily married. Clearly women now need to be hairless from the eyelashes downwards. Who has the time to manage this? And what happens during the in-between period when there is a teensy bit of growth? Do you hide in the broom cupboard or wear a burka?

      Being a non waxer myself I have always pondered this question. Surely the cost of being hair free is the pain of ‘growing’ it back so it must be fuzzy again.

      How does that work?

    Leave the brazilians and introduce Twin Girl (in her own time) to the concept of big pants. Far less hassle.

    Hopefully by the time she’s hairy she’ll be happy to embrace it! Your son is longing for the point my teen thinks he’s reached…

    My daughter, in a busy but quiet swimming pool changing room, recently referred in a loud voice to my “hairy bottom”… I wouldn’t mind but it wasn’t!
