The other posters are right about Korean women's pubic hair- it can be a lot. I've even been told, by women who frequent the female changing room in their gym, that many women here blow dry the hair to fluff it up.

Strangely enough though they get very little hair elsewhere- one girl I dated never shaved her legs, and had only a few strands of hair on one leg.

As for reactions? I'm a guy and I get reactions about my body hair, so as a woman you'll probably get a lot of attention.

since most women back home (in my experience) at least trim, it took a little getting used to going to korea. but after a while the only problem i had with it was when one got tied around my uvula (the little hangy-down thing in your throat).

(gag, gag)

"teacha, why is you is put finger in neck?"

"um, i'm bulimic, look it up."

I look like George "The Animal" Steele in the sauna, but it doesn't really illicit many stares, surprisingly enough. In the class, however, would get the typical 'oh, teacher... gorilla!' etc. If you're a woman, I'd invest in a razor or some pants. Unless by 'hippie' you mean 'lazy'.

What I really don't understand is how bald-headed foreigners attract so much finger-pointing? Aren't there enough buddhists roaming around to make it seem normal?

Also, I JUST saw a Korean commercial for Neet - a hair-removal foam.

I'm amused by how this instantly turned into a thread about pubic hair . . .

Anyhow- No worries, I do in fact have a tough skin. I currently live in Utah (helllllo Mormons!!!) and regularly wear shorts . . . and get stares. And for what its worth, I won't be teaching little ones, I'll be teaching high school.

And I assure you, by "hippie" I don't mean "lazy"
