Brazilian WHAT???

Hey - what happened to a woman's "right" to choose what to do with her body?

New Jersey is drawing the line when it comes to bikini waxing.

The state Board of Cosmetology and Hairstyling is moving toward a ban on genital waxing after two women reported being injured in their quest for a smooth bikini line.

Both women were hospitalized for infections following so-called "Brazilian" bikini waxes; one of the women has filed a lawsuit, according to Jeff Lamm, a spokesman for New Jersey's Division of Consumer Affairs, which oversees the cosmetology board.

Technically, genital waxing has never been allowed — only the face, neck, abdomen, legs and arms are permitted — but because bare-it-all "Brazilians" weren't specifically banned, state regulators haven't enforced the law.

"The genital area is not part of the abdomen or legs as some might assume," Lamm said.

First off anyone who thinks that their genital area is part of the legs or abdomen, needs a refresher course in human anatomy....I'm just sayin'....

OK - all snark and silliness aside....OUCH - is this something any of you (male or female because according to the story men do it too) would even consider? I mean think of the pain....

One really has to wonder after reading this story which is worse.....the utter stupidity of people who would risk that kind of damage to themselves just to look good in a swimsuit - or the fact that government feels obligated to write regulations in order to prevent people from being that stupid. Either way...
