Got some dim memory of reading how Mediterranean women would use a honey mixture to remove unwanted hair and how Greeks would 'scrape' their bodies prior to olympic competition.
Let me clarify myself, I was just referring myself to the several centuries in western europe before the 20th century. Essentially medieval to the early modern era.
I remember from a novel set in classical times entitled Household Gods, that women in the roman empire would shave their pubic areas. Not to mention the statues they made were painted, among other things.
No offense intended and no demand for clarity...but questioning my own memory...(waiting to be flamed so to speak for getting my "facts" wrong)
Not as stoopid as I thought I was eh??
